Pre - Engineering

Subject : engineering
Instructions:
  • Answer 28 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Drawings used to convey the dimensions of a part.






2. A term that describes a part in an assembly that is static and cannot move. All other parts must be placed in relation to a grounded part. The base of an assembly should be grounded.






3. To improve on an existing product.






4. Way of dimensioning that is considered bad: can lead to the build- up of errors - making the end product larger or smaller than expected.






5. A 2- d object that has width and height.






6. American National Standards Institute: Creates engineering standards for North America.






7. Any line - shape - or part from which a measurement is made.






8. A hole shaped like a T - with a more shallow upper hole than a counterbore.






9. To make a new product that has never existed before.






10. A hole shaped like a T.






11. A hole shaped like a Y.






12. Constraints that describe relationships between parts of a geometric figure - without using numbers. Examples: parallel - perpendicular - tangent - symmetric - etc.






13. A chart given with an exploded view - labeling parts and sometimes giving descriptions of the parts.






14. The distance from the top to the bottom/front to the back of an object.






15. A device that has an attached gauge - and is used to measure lengths and distances in objects. It can measure 4 different ways - and can measure to thousandths of an inch.






16. A method of selection/construction where parts (or components of a part) are added one by one.






17. A method of construction where parts (or components of a part) are removed one by one.






18. A note that describes dimension - part - etc.






19. A 3- d object that has width - height - and depth.






20. A document written for a design project - including things like: company information - problem description - goals - solution analysis - a synopsis - and conclusion.






21. A hole shaped like an I.






22. The chart in the bottom- right corner of a multiview drawing that can give info about it - such as date - name - what the part is - and sometimes the company name.






23. Define a problem - Brainstorm - Research & generate ideas - Identify criteria & specify constraints - Explore possibilities - Select an approach - Develop a design proposal - Make a model/prototype - Test & evaluate the design using specifications -






24. A unit assembled separately but designed to be incorporated with other units into a larger product.






25. Linear translation along the x- axis - Linear translation along the y- axis - Linear translation along the z- axis - Rotation about the x- axis - Rotation about the y- axis - Rotation about the z- axis.






26. A drawing that shows at least 2 2- dimensional views of a 3- d object.






27. An organized collection of your best work during a class or major project.






28. A process for solving a problem: list ideas - evaluate against criteria - and conclude which is the best solution (using a points system). In the design process - this is step 6: select an approach.
