Review for Midterm

ENGR 1304 Midterm
  
  •   Open notes, open book.  
Bring:
  1. Your titleblock, 
  2. Cube practice sheets, 
  3. *.dwt with layers and dimstyles set up, 
  4. HW examples including worked out tolerance worksheets, 
  5. any other resources you need.



The midterm will have two parts:

Part one - written

  • Tolerance questions out of chapter 7 with questions similar to pg 289-307
  • Sketching exercise - sketch a 3D cubic object given its orthogonal views.  
see more cube practice worksheets on: 

If you need to use AutoCAD to help visualize what the cube should look like, that is fine.  Bring an AutoCAD cube *dwg that you can PressPull.

practice cubes: Sketch the 3D cube from the following 2D views:

Take it piece by piece.  Highlight surfaces, and line up features in the different views with one another to start visualizing the 3D object.

Part two - CAD exercise 

Given a set of orthographic views with dimensions
  • Re-create the 3D object in AutoCAD
  • Open up a layout with Title block 
  • Use the VIEWBASE command to make the orthogonal views of your 3D object
  • Demonstrate your ability to correctly add dimensions, tolerances, and notes 
  • Create a sectional or auxiliary view on an additional layout page
Practice for the CAD part of the test by working through any of the worksheets in the book such as:

Practice #1: Chapter 3 Pg 115:









Practice #2: Create the following 3D object from the below orthogonal view.  


  • Draw your object with the exact same dimensions as shown below.
  • Add all of the tolerances, dimensions, and notes shown below
  • Can you figure out what unit format under primary units creates the below dimension style?





________________________________________________________________________


Can you dimension angles?  Can you change the style to show fractions of inches?
DimStyle→Primary Units→Architectural

To prepare for the test, organize all of your files and notes, and practice creating 3D objects in CAD!

Pre-Midterm Assignments:
Week 1 - 8/29 - 200 points sketching / excel crane
Week 2 9/5 - holiday, only 50 points 2D CAD scribble page
Week 3 9/12  Ch2 - 2D ortho views 200 points
Week 4 9/19 Ch3 - 3D CAD 200 points
Week 5 9/26 Ch4 sectional views (100 pnts), Ch5 Aux views (100 pnts)
Week 6 10/3 Ch6 Dimensioning (200 points)
Week 7 10/10 Ch7 tolerances 200 points  (100 for xls worksheet, 100 for Ch7E10)

1250 points = 100%
 - work on getting caught up instead of midterm practice if you are still missing a few worksheets!


If you are not ready for the midterm:

A few of you are a little behind.  If you feel unprepared and unable to take the midterm on Mon 10/17, I need to you create a schedule outlining where you are, and your plan for finishing up what you need to get caught up. There will be a makeup (same material, different test) for those who need it.

Next up - Inventor!!  


Let me know if any of the above is confusing!
