    Study Notes

    Designing and Development

    • Designers use various techniques to create products and solve problems
    • Design and development involve creating working drawings and parts lists to enable a third party to manufacture the design

    Working Drawings

    • Provide information about structure, dimensions, materials, and assembly instructions for a product
    • Can be produced electronically using computer-aided design (CAD) or by hand
    • Must be presented clearly and accurately

    Types of Working Drawings

    • Elevation drawings
    • Assembly drawings
    • Exploded diagrams
    • Orthographic projections

    Elevations

    • Show the sides of an item, e.g., front elevation or side elevation
    • The top is referred to as the 'plan'
    • Enable detailed measurements to be added for every section of the product
    • Three types of elevations: plan view, front elevation, and side elevation

    First and Third Angle Projection

    • First angle projection: plan view is below the side view
    • Third angle projection: plan view is above the side view
    • Symbols used to indicate projection type:
      • First angle: triangle with a circle at the wide end
      • Third angle: circle with a smaller circle inside

    Orthographic Projections

    • Use a set of standard lines to show different aspects of the diagram
    • Lines used:
      • Outlines
      • Construction lines
      • Hidden details
      • Dimension arrow
      • Centre line
    • Allow complex shapes to be drawn simply in 2D

    Assembly Drawings

    • Isometric drawing: shows a 3D representation of an object, combining plan, front, and side views into a single drawing
    • Assembly drawing: shows how parts of a product fit together, often used for assembling model kits or flat-pack furniture
    • Two types of assembly drawings:
      • Fitted assembly: shows all parts put together, can be drawn in 2D or 3D
      • Exploded diagram: shows parts separated, but in the correct relationship for assembly, usually drawn in 3D

    Exploded Diagrams

    • Show how a product can be assembled, with dotted lines indicating how parts fit together
    • Also show components normally hidden in a solid drawing and can be used as detailed instructions

    Key Takeaways

    • Isometric drawings offer a quick 3D overview of an object
    • Assembly drawings guide the construction of a product by showing how parts fit together
    • Exploded diagrams act as visual instructions for assembling a product, replacing complex written instructions
    • Orthographic projections offer a detailed 2D representation of each side of an object, used for planning and manufacturing
    • First and third angle projections differ only in the positioning of the view from the right
    • Construction lines are used in orthographic drawings to connect and define different parts of the object
