Document Summary

Lecture 3: engineering reporting & measurements, dimensions and units. General rules: date and sign everything written, be clear and concise, avoid jargon and fancy words, plan context- outline- several drafts, spell checkers are only and aid, do not leaving writing to the last minute, proof read!! Good engineering report: clear statement of purpose, concise presentation of detail, logical development of data and ideas. Analyze, explain, conclude, recommend: objective separation of fact and opinion, organized layout. Well-spaced heading and visuals: has adequate references. No plagiarism or forgotten references: has no spelling mistakes or grammatical errors. Precision and accuracy: precision of a measurement. Discrepancies between repeated measurements taken under the same conditions are small: accuracy. Accurate measurements are close to true value. Some authors use term to describe total error. Lecture 5: engineering graphics-1: universal language between engineers, be clear and unambiguous (must be precise and exact)
