SYLLABUS. ` (a) Geometrical Drawing. The use of drawing instruments, con- ventional engineering drawing practice and its principles. Construction of graphs and nomograms. Descriptive (solid) geometry, including projections and sections of solids. Problems relating to planes, interpenetration and development of surfaces.
(b) Statics. Analytical and graphical treatment of statics, including measure- ment of plane areas ; graphical integration and differentiation; first and second moments of area, centroids, centres of gravity, friction; co-planar and non-co-planar force systems ; forces in framed structures; shear force, thrust and bending moment diagrams.
(c) Introduction to Strength of Materials. Simple stresses in compression, tension and pure bending. Elastic constants, strains and deformation of framed structures.
(d) Introduction to Machines. Instant centres and relative plane motion.
Gear geometry. Cam geometry. Centrifugal governors. Brakes and dynamometers for engine testing.
(e) Engineering Background. The engineering courses and their relation
to
developments, past, present, and future.
DRAWING OFFICE WORK. Four hours per week throughout the year, entailing the solution of problems relating to sections (a), (b), (c) and (d) above.
Students must procure the following set of drawing requisites before the course commences :
1. Set of drawing instruments.
Engineers should obtain a good set as it will be constantly required throughout the course and probably after graduation.
The set must contain:
Compasses—with pen and pencil attachment, and extension arm.
Pen and pencil spring bows and dividers.
Ruling pen.
2. One 10 in. slide rule with ABCD, Sin, Tan, log-log scales—preferably Darmstadt pattern, or P.I.C. (A. G. Thornton, Ltd.),
3. Celluloid set squares.
One 10 in. adjustable set. square.
One 60 degrees set square, 10 in. size or larger.
4. One celluloid protractor 5 in. diameter or larger—preferably full circle type.
5. One French curve.
6. Scales:
One 12 in. Armstrong or engineer's scale, graduated } in., } in.
,
} in 1 in., $ in., } in.,1}
in., 3 in. to the foot.One 12 in. scale, graduated g; in., -glg in., ,ain., and mm. units.
One 12 in. "chain" scale graduated 20, 40, 80, 100 parts to the inch (decimal) .
7. Pencils—good quality drawing pencils.
F (2 required), H (2 required), 4H and 5H or 6Н.
Also set of coloured pencils (6 colours).
8. One hard eraser, one artgum, one eraser shield.
9. One small fine file (5 in. smooth warding file) or sand-paper block.
10. Indian ink. Pen and nibs (303 Gillott).
11. One roll of drafting tape.
