Prof. Dr. Kristina Shea Engineering Design + Computing Laboratory 51 ENGINEERING DESIGN AND COMPUTING Engineering Design and Sketching: Wrap-up Engineering design starts from a need and follows a systematic process. Sketches are an important part of the design process and everyone can learn how to sketch. There are many different types of perspectives that objects can be drawn in and the most suitable must be selected. Sketching techniques can help you with your first sketches. Check your sketch quality with the validation questions.

What is mobbing and bullying? § In mobbing or bullying, a person is, for example, systematically targeted, sneered at, deliberately ignored, constantly interrupted, slandered, treated unfairly or threatened, over a long period of time. § Mobbing goes too far! What is sexual harassment? § Sexual harassment includes any behavior that is unwelcome by the recipient; this ranges from crude remarks about appearance, sexist jokes to sexual assault. § Sexual harassment is not flirting! ETH Zurich and D-MAVT do not tolerate disrespectful behavior. We interact with each other in a supportive, fair and constructive manner! Prof. Dr. Kristina Shea Engineering Design + Computing Laboratory 55 ENGINEERING DESIGN AND COMPUTING Where can I find help? How do I avoid disrespectful behavior? -> First consider whether my behavior can be hurtful towards others (even unintentionally!). What should I do if my behavior is interpreted as disrespectful? -> Apologize! (“I didn't know I would hurt you with that.”) What do I do when I observe disrespectful behavior? -> Stand up, step in and offer support to the person concerned.

Info that needs to becontained ▪ How can we communicate the details of a complex design? ▪ How can we provide manufacturing instructions? ▪ How can we specify requirements for testing and inspection? ▪ How can we enable maintenance and service over time?
