Project Format

The final objective of a mechanical project is to provide a set of drawings for the elements of your assembled product. These drawings should be used to machine and assemble this project. Your calculations, as well as your common sense, should support the dimensions listed on these drawings. Your grade is based on the your drawing, calculations, and the overall appearance of your project. The project will have the following format:

1. Title page: This page has the course title, project title, your name, and date.

2. Introduction: This section contains brief description of the project objective.

3. Drawing: One or more drawing fully detailed, scaled, and can be used for assembly and machining. Drawings should have the machine elements identified by numbers.

4. Machine elements list: Table containing element number (corresponding to your drawing), description (bolts, gears, etc.), quantity, and material. This list is helpful to whoever is assembling this project or purchasing these elements.

5. Calculations: calculations should be neat and organized. Each element should have its calculation in a separate page.

6. Conclusion: Include items such as suggestions for modifying the objective of the project, calculations that did not produce expected results, etc.
