Materials in Design
What do we mean by designing?
Design is the process of translating a new idea or a
market need into the detailed information from which a
product can be manufactured
Each of its stages requires decisions about the materials
of which the product is to be made and the process for
making it
Series of steps about materials and process selection
Important to note:
Entire age of human
was named based on the
material that he had used
Stone, bronze and iron
were of such importance that
the era of their dominance is
named after them
A very significant increase
in available materials
choices had occurred
only in last 60-70 years
