Course objectives:
1. Train students to use a commercial solid modelling package.
2. Acquaint students with various structural phenomena that govern the design of aerospace
systems.
3. Introduce the students to draw the views of some aircraft components and other
mechanical elements.
4. To learn the basic concepts and to draw the views of section of solids, orthographic
projections and threaded fasteners.
5. This course will give the insight into the design, creation of assembly and get the detailed
drawing of few aircraft components.
6. This course will also introduce students to draw riveted joints, threaded fasteners and
couplings.

After completion of the course, students should be able to

CO1 Create the drawing views with the internal details by doing the section of the solids.
CO2 Make the orthographic drawing views given the isometric drawing and vice-versa.
CO3 Choose the proper fastener for assembling the machine components.
Use, identify and explain standard features in solid modelling including protrusions,
CO4
revolutions, cut-outs, and patterns
Use standard software tools to create engineering drawings, or other documents, to
CO5 fully describe the geometries and dimensions of parts, as well as to document
assemblies according to standard practice.
Demonstrate standards of part and assembly creation allowing an adaptable design of
CO6
a medium size project.

Scheme of Examination:
Two questions to be set from each Module. Student has to answer any one question from
each module. Each question of module-1 and module-2 carries 20 marks. One question from
module-3 carries 60 marks.
i.e.
PART-A: 1 x 20 = 20 Marks
PART-B: 1 x 20 = 20 Marks
PART-C: 1 x 60 = 60 Marks

Total = 100 Marks
