The Essential Guide To Technical Product Specification

Product specification, Technical documents, Technical drawing, Engineering drawings, Drawings

The Manual of Engineering Drawing has long been recognised as the student and practising engineer's guide to producing engineering drawings that comply with ISO and British Standards. The information in this book is equally applicable to any CAD application or manual drawing. The second edition is fully in line with the requirements of the new British Standard BS8888: 2002, and will help engineers, lecturers and students with the transition to the new standards. BS8888 is fully based on the relevant ISO standards, so this book is also ideal for an international readership. The comprehensive scope of this book encompasses topics including orthographic, isometric and oblique projections, electric and hydraulic diagrams, welding and adhesive symbols, and guidance on tolerancing. Written by a member of the ISO committee and a former college lecturer, the Manual of Engineering Drawing combines up-to-the-minute technical accuracy with clear, readable explanations and numerous diagrams. This approach makes this an ideal student text for vocational courses in engineering drawing and undergraduates studying engineering design / product design. Colin Simmons is a member of the BSI and ISO Draughting Committees and an Engineering Standards Consultant. He was formerly Standards Engineer at Lucas CAV. * Fully in line with the latest ISO Standards * A textbook and reference guide for students and engineers involved in design engineering and product design * Written by a former lecturer and a current member of the relevant standards committees

The Manual of Engineering Drawing has long been the recognised as a guide for practicing and student engineers to producing engineering drawings and annotated 3D models that comply with the latest British and ISO Standards of Technical Product Specifications and Documentation. This new edition has been updated to include the requirements of BS8888 2008 and the relevant ISO Standards, and is ideal for International readership; it includes a guide to the fundamental differences between the ISO and ASME Standards relating to Technical Product Specification and Documentation. Equally applicable to CAD and manual drawing it includes the latest development in 3D annotation and the specification of surface texture. The Duality Principle is introduced as this important concept is still very relevant in the new world of 3D Technical Product Specification. Written by members of BSI and ISO committees and a former college lecturer, the Manual of Engineering Drawing combines up to the minute technical information with clear, readable explanations and numerous diagrams and traditional geometrical construction techniques rarely taught in schools and colleges. This approach makes this manual an ideal companion for students studying vocational courses in Technical Product Specification, undergraduates studying engineering or product design and any budding engineer beginning a career in design. The comprehensive scope of this new edition encompasses topics such as orthographic and pictorial projections, dimensional, geometrical and surface tolerancing, 3D annotation and the duality principle, along with numerous examples of electrical and hydraulic diagrams with symbols and applications of cams, bearings, welding and adhesives. * The definitive guide to draughting to the latest ISO and ASME standards * An essential reference for engineers, and students, involved in design engineering and product design * Written by two ISO committee members and practising engineers.

The third edition of Complete Guide to Size Specification and Technical Design equips students with everything they need to know about measuring sample garments, creating fully graded spec sheets, fitting garments, and grading patterns for production. Over 500 technical flats are clearly labeled with measurement points and instructions for taking measurements. The book includes spec sheets for different types of garments and industry forms explained within the context of the production process. An entire section is devoted to correcting fitting issues with pattern alterations and grade rules for both number and letter sizing. The accompanying downloadable templates and forms allow readers to develop their own private label specification sheets and improve their technical design skills. New to this Edition -Features instructions on measuring the human body -Introduces PLM/PDM software such as Gerber, lectra, and Optitex in Chapter 2 -Includes expanded information on fitting and grading -Provides new fashion flats and body figure croquis and a metric conversion chart in updated appendices -New Chapter 16 on children's wear includes step-by-step illustrated instructions for new points of measure · New section on computer-aided technical design including coverage of PLM/PDM software such as Gerber, Lectra, and Optitex · New chapter on childrenswear with points of measure (POM) and grading information · Added instructions on measuring the human body · Expanded information on fitting and grading · Updated appendices with new fashion flats and body figure croquis and a metric conversion chart STUDIO Resources · Watch videos that bring chapter concepts to life · Download templates, blank and sample spec sheets, basic garment and figure croquis to practice technical design skills · Study smarter with self-quizzes featuring scored results and personalized study tips · Review concepts with flashcards of essential vocabulary · Access useful resources such as a Care Labeling Guide, Ordering a Body Form Guide and a Buttonline Card Instructor Resources · Instructor's Guide provides suggestions for planning the course and using the text in the classroom · Learning with STUDIO Student Registration Guide and a First Day of Class PowerPoint presentation
