scale drawings and dimensions – 3 marks. Credit may be given to all
logically correct examples
Problem statement
To draw a detailed 2d drawing of foldable table.

Objective (Tips: add as many points you can)

✓ Table should be foldable
✓ Light weight
✓ Adequate height
✓ Portable

Constraints (Tips: add as many points you can)

✓ Material should be steel
✓ Should be foldable and portable
✓ Cost should be minimum (under Rs 500)
• As per the constraints the materials used must be steel. Since steel is a light weight
material it can also aid for the function portability.

• In the detailed 2d diagram it is show all the measurements and dimensions of the table.

• The material used for the product is steel, so it give more durability and less weight.

• The corners of the tables are smoothened and a rubber material is installed at the corners
for safety purpose.

• There is clamp is placed to hold the leg of the table when it is in standing
position. When it is folded the height of the product become 5 cm.

• The diameter of the leg is 5 cm and the edges of the legs are covered with rubber bush to
get good grip on the floor.
Q1) Graphically communicate the design of a
thermo flask used to keep hot coffee. Draw the
detailed 2D drawings of the same with design
detailing, material selection, scale drawings,
dimensions, tolerances, etc. Use only hand
sketches.
Material selection
Top cap:
• This section can also be used a cup for drinking coffee
• Since it has to withstand hot coffee, we must use a high-quality plastic material which can
support minimum 200 0C on inside
• The plastic is coated with a low weight steel material
• The colour of the material can be of three choices – Black, red & steel colour
Body:
• Body is the main part of the flask
• Which will keep the hot coffee for long time.
• It contains an inner part and outer part
• Outer part is commonly used flask material which is a weight less steel material
• Inner part is glass which is coated with material which will not conduct temperature
• The inner section temperature should not affect the outer part
Bottom cap
• The bottom carrier can be used as a biscuit carrier
• The material use for this carrier can be the same material as flask is made

Prepare a technical report for a newly designed website for
online training of students with neat diagrams for presenting to
a client. (14 marks)

Title
Technical report on Design of
“Online Training Hub”

Designed by: XYZ/ ABC Company

Client : AAA
Summary
This report includes the details of design of the online training software “Online training
Hub ”. This online tool is used for training students anywhere in the world. The website
have account for both students and teachers. The teachers can take live class or recorded
class to students. Assignments/ quizzes can also be assigned to students. Online exams can
also be done through this. The project is mainly done for the client
Introduction
In this covid-19 pandemic time most of the teaching is done in online mode. The important of “Online
training Hub” is high in this time. Online learning technique has its advantages in many ways. A recorded
session of the class can watch by students at any time if they miss some classes. Tracking of the learning
process can also be easily done in the online
platform. Lets discuss the details of “Online training Hub”

Detailed Design
Objectives
• Should be simple from user perspective
• Individual account and options for teachers and students
• Streaming of previous video classes
• Online test should be able to conduct
• Results, timetable, assignment etc should be able to track from accounts of individual
• Attendance system must be there
Constraints
• Data security is important
• Teacher student interaction must be there
• Minimal data usage must be there
• Mobile allocation must be available for the same

Teacher’s Account window

Quiz/Assignment window

Result & Conclusion

The “Online training Hub” can perform as a good online training platform for both students
and teachers. All can create and have their own account and keep a track about the academic
activities and performance. Also authorities like Principal and HODs can also have their
own accounts and keep the status of the academics and get report of the same.
A mobile app based on “Online training Hub” is also an easy access to the platform. This
can reduce the usage of data used for the students who have low data transaction
performance. In summary the platform is simple and user friendly for all the users.
Describe the role of mathematical modelling in design
engineering. Show how mathematics and physics play
a role in designing a lifting mechanism to raise 100 kg
of weight to a floor at a height of 10 meters in a

Let us discuss some basic physics principle for the particular job. To lift the
weight we need to know how much power used for this job

To calculate the power let us use the basic equation of power expression

𝑃 =𝑊/ 𝑇
Where,
W = work done
T = Time

𝑊 = 𝐹(Force) ∗ 𝑆(displacement)
The expression for work done is
 𝐹=𝑚∗𝑎
To find the force we need the force expression

Where m is the mass and a is the acceleration

Let us assume a = 9.8 m/s and the value of m is given which is 100 kg

𝐹 = 100 ∗ 9.8 = 980𝑁

So

𝑊=𝐹∗𝑆 [S-> displacement=10m]

From the value of the force we can calculate the work

𝑊 = 980 ∗ 10 = 9800𝐽

Now power 𝑃 =𝑊/ 𝑇

𝑃 =9800/60
Let us assume T=60 seconds

= 163.3 watt (W)

 Force to pull this
F=100kg x 9.8 m/s (lets round it to
10m/s)
= 1000 N

From the given diagram we can see

that using physics principle and
technique can reduce the power to
pull the weight.
So we can conclude that the physics
and mathematical principle can aid the
If we use two pully systems the engineering design.
force can be reduced again
Q) Design an office chair and communicate your design using sketches

Q) A web page has to be maintained to store the details of covid
patients in Kerala district wise. Design a web page and its popups with
neat sketches and necessary documentation. The design must include
the specification of software required for the page development
To design a web page for storing COVID patient details in Kerala districtwise, you can follow these steps:

Frontend Design:
• Create a homepage with a map of Kerala divided into districts.
• Each district should be clickable, leading to a page specific to that district.
• On the district page, include forms to input patient details such as name, age, gender, symptoms, etc.
• Use popups for error messages, confirmation messages, and to display patient details.
Backend Design:
• Use a database to store patient details. You can use MySQL, MongoDB, or any other suitable database.
• Create APIs to handle data retrieval, storage, and updates.
Sketches:
• Sketch the homepage with the map of Kerala and clickable districts.
• Sketch the district page with forms for entering patient details and popups for messages.
Documentation:
• Write a detailed document outlining the functionality of each page and the interactions between frontend and backend.
• Include the database schema and API specifications.
Software Requirements:
• Frontend: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a suitable framework like React or Vue.js for interactivity.
• Backend: Node.js, Express.js, and the chosen database (e.g., MySQL, MongoDB).
• Use tools like Adobe XD, Sketch, or Figma for sketching the web page.

By following these steps, you can design a web page to store COVID patient details in Kerala districtwise, along with the
necessary sketches and documentation.
