Question 1

1A. 4.a.b OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH, SAFETY AND THE ENVIRONMENT

You got a job with a company that sell and service fire extinguishers as a business.

A contractor made a request for you to supply extinguishers for 5 different businesses.

1.) A stationary store.

2.) An electrical repair shop, where electrical equipment is repaired and there is constant
testing. Many times, the technicians would leave live electrical wires exposed.

3.) A food catering business outlet.

4.) A car paint shop which sells and mixes paint on spot.

5.) A metal craft store that uses a lot of heat to shape the metals. In this shop, there are a few
computers used to assist in manufacturing the products.

Fill out the table below, stating which type of extinguisher would be recommended for each
business, the most likely type/class of fire, insert an image of the fire extinguisher to be used.

apply basic First Aid principles and practices

Portfolio Section 1A – differentiate treatment for various injuries.

State the treatment required for each of these injuries: Minor Burns; Electric burns; Cuts and abrasions &
Heavy bleeding.

Include 1 image & the source of your information.

Injury Treatment required Image Source

Minor Burns  Cool the burn

 Apply lotion
 Take a pain
reliever Wrap the
wound in bandage

 Apply a cool wet

cloth,
 After cleaning the
skin put a bandage
Electric burns
on

Cuts and abrasions  Wash your hands

 Stop the bleeding
 Clean the wound
 Apply an anti-
biotic
 Cover the wound
 Change the
dressing

Heavy bleeding  Sterilize and press

firmly with the
palms of your
hands until
bleeding stops.
 Wrap a bandage
around the wound
once bleeding is
stopped

Functions of drawing equipment and materials

Identify 4 manual drawing instruments & describe its use.

Include a drawing or picture of each instrument selected.

Name of Drawing Description Picture /diagram

instrument
Pen/Pencil A writing utensil used fir
drawing, writing and sketching

T-square Used for crafting a horizontal

reference on the drafting board

Question 4

SECTION 1B: FUNDAMENTALS OF TECHNICAL DRAWING

1B.5a: EQUIPMENT, TOOLS, MATERIALS, LETTERING, LINE WORK, DIMENSIONS AND SCALES –

The alphabet of lines.

Project on various types of lines.

Instruction:-

Draw sketches to illustrate the following types of lines.

1.) A hidden line

2.) A center line.
3.) Hatch lines in a sectional view
4.) An outline
5.) A broken line
6.) An outline
7.) Construction line

Line type Description Image

Hidden Line A hidden line is an edge or

corner that is not visible
according to the angle the shape
is viewed at

A center line A line that goes through the

center axis of a symmetric shape
Hatch lines in a sectional view Hatch lines are lines that are
used to indicate solid shapes
that are cut through

An outline The line by which a shape or

solid is defined or out bounded

A broken line A line which is broken up into

segments or sections

Construction line Also known as Xlines, this a line

which is temporary but used to
construct, position, sculpt and
design and then later removed

Sectional Plane Line A line used to indicate where

the cutting plane cuts the
material. They are thin lines and
the symbols are chosen
according to the material of the
object

Section 1B: FUNDAMENTALS OF TECHNICAL DRAWING

Section1B.7 Equipment, Tools, Materials. Lettering, Line Work, Dimensions and scales-Lettering
and Dimensioning Dimensions (floor plan or Machine Part), aligned, linear, radius, leader.

In the above diagram,

AC = 120mm,CD = 90mm,diameter of circle F =36mm,centre of circle F is 36mm from CD and 30mm

from DE.

Curve at E has a radius of 20mm.

AB = BG= 25mm. Angle ABG is 45 degrees.

Draw to scale a Front Elevation and dimension the following: -

1 – CD

2 – AC

3 -angle ABG

4- The radius at E

5 – The diameter of the circle F

Question 12

Building Option

You have decided to go in the real estate/construction business. Your first project is to construct on
a plot of land,15 meters by 30 meters, a structure which would house a doctor’s office and a
pharmacy.

While both businesses are in the same structure, they are independent. If the doctor’s office is
secured (closed), business must still be able to operate in the pharmacy and the same situation must
exist with the doctor.

The structure is to be a single storey 300mm, above ground level.

A kitchenette and washroom facilities must be provided for both businesses.

You are to: -

- Research the Town and Country regulations for Trinidad and Tobago.

- Visit a pharmacist and a doctor to find out what is required in such a business. (Must show
some evidence that you did a visit or evidence of your research.)

Using an appropriate scale, do the working drawings to include.

 (i) a site plan, which must include the car park layout

(ii) a foundation plan

(iii) a roof plan

(iv) a ground floor plan

(v) two elevations

(vi) a sectional front elevation

NOTE: All measurements must be in millimetres.

Produce some detailed drawings to include:

(i) A footing detail -Scale 1:10

(ii) A roof apex detail-Scale 1:10

(iii) A roof anchorage detail-Scale 1:10

(iv) A Door detail for the front-Scale 1:5

(v) A surface drain detail-Scale 1:10
