Short Term Course on Design Concept
Here are a few things you must know about the course that will help you understand the relevance and admission-related details about the course.
About the course:
Engineering drawing is the best way to express engineering concepts and exchange information. If any component is to be specified, the following information is needed:
- All the dimensions of the component
- Description of the material to be used
- Parameters like weight, tensile strength, ductility, etc.
CAD is now a given for designing of any machine part, equipment or system for the advantages it brings over conventional drafting. CAD helps designers and engineers create ideas, make visualizations and produce precise drawings. Indeed, having training in CAD gives design engineers an edge in their career pursuit.
Viewing
Visualization of the object to be created is one of the most powerful means of communication. CAD reduces the drawing time and more importantly, eliminates personal skill dependency. Manual drawings were mostly orthogonal; today's CAD software allows the creation of 3D objects with ease. CAD presents a few distinct viewing advantages:
- Creation of sectional view
- Creation of an image that does not require the end-user to have special software for viewing
iii. Multiple copies can be made and transmitted easily without loss of accuracy
Mechanism design
Mechanism design can be divided into two types, kinematic design, and dynamic design. CAD systems allow designers to create a 3D model of each of the components to create either a kinematic or dynamic mechanism. The kinematic design allows a designer to animate the CAD model. Dynamic design allows engineers to optimize the various properties of the mechanism.

EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY:
- Aeronautical drafters - create plans and drawings that detail engineering specifications for use in the manufacturing of airplanes, missiles and the like.
- Mechanical drafters - prepare detailed assembly drafts for use with mechanical devices and machines. These drawings include methods of fastening, dimensions and other specifications.
- Civil drafters - create topography and relief maps for use in civil engineering projects. These projects include bridges, water and sewage systems, highways and flood control setups.
- Architectural drafters - diagram features of buildings, both structural and architectural, used in construction jobs. Diagrams may include materials needed to complete the job for both commercial and residential buildings.
- Process drafters - create diagrams that are used in gas and oil refineries, piping systems and chemical plants, emphasizing both the construction and layout of plans.
