PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Recognize some of the basic hand tools and their proper uses in the construction trade.
twisting, screwing hand tools
- hands tools such as screwdrivers and wrenches are included in this section.
- in order for these tools to be used the user must rotate the tool in any direction.
- there are many different types of wrenches and screwdrivers which makes them specialized tools.
striking hand tools
- these hand tools include hammers, mallets, and sledges.
- everyone should know how to use these tools. just by their appearance it should not be difficult.
- most common hammer is the ball pain.
- the most common mallet is the hard rubber.
cutting hand tools
- these tools all have the job or the purpose to cut/saw items such as metal, wood, wires.
- these tools are dangerous and very harmful if not used properly.
- the most common saw is the hacksaw. they have more than one type of blade for special cuts.
- Snips are the closes tool to a pair of scissors in a toolbox.
explain how to maintain various power tools to ensure proper tool operation
maintaining and operating electric tools safely
- some basics on how to use electric tools safely are, don't horseplay while using them.
- wear the right protection like safety goggles and ear protection.
- no operating tools if under the influence or when using medication that makes you feel drowsy.
- with electric tools you need to check for any machine malfunction or anything that could cause one.
maintaining and operate pneumatic tools safely
- with pneumatic tools you have to maintain not only the tools but the air compressor as well
- have up to date check and up to date parts. use the right tool for the right job.
- you need to make sure that your using it correctly.
maintaining and operating hydraulic tools safely.
- hydraulic tools like the hydraulic jack can be operated in many ways that are careless and dangerous.
- you should make sure they are being used in a safe work environment and are being used for the right job.
- check and make sure the air compressor and hose are not damages in any way.
describe the different classifications of construction drawings used in the construction industry.
isometric drawing is one of many drawings they use in construction.
- isometric drawing is the most detailed drawing from all.
- this blueprint is drawn in 3-d, so that the designer and builder can see if all the parts fit or to see how would the product look done.
- since we are making a door lock we would have to show the whole blueprint and we should be able to see it in one whole piece.
electric plan drawings that have electrical symbols
- the designer must under stand the subject of the project.
- every electrical design needs special requirements.
- you have to define each design for the electrical plan.
- an electrical symbol is pictogram, used to represent electrical devices like wires or batteries or transistors
mechanical plans
- most of the time mechanical plans are drawn on an overhead point of view.
- mechanical plans show where the location and specifications of the project.
- for example, it can tell where the a/c vents are or where the smoke detectors are. the mechanical plan can also have the weight, the mass, the heat treatment, the surface texture, and the relavent code.
recognize and identify basic construction drawing terms, components, and symbols.
symbols commonly used in a blueprint drawing.
- in our blueprint the schematic symbols for the batteries and also infrared leds and receivers.
- schematic symbols got to be used for the batteries or its not going to cut on
- if we don't have the symbols for the wires our device is not going to work or not going to work properly.
- without these symbols we want know what to do or how to set anything up.
main components of the blueprint.
- main components of the blueprint contain five different parts.
- the title block, grid system, the revision block, also notes and legends and engineering drawing.
- all theses have major roles in the blueprint, all parts are important in a way.
- the title blocks are the beginning point of a drawing information.
- the revision block updates you on any changes that has been made.
terms that are used in a blueprint.
- c.a.d, floor plan and also plumbing. c.a.d is the way most blueprint are made today, so people make blueprint out that product today.
- floor plan is just a actual view of the layout.
- plumbing really refers to both water supply and all liquid waste.
- jargon is special words or expressions that are used by a particular profession or group and are difficult for others to understand.
- so basically what this is , it's something that's easy but the word makes it sound hard.
summarize hazards, storage and safety producers required for materials handling.
material handling
- material hand is the movement protection, storage and control of products and materials.
- a company with a good material handling system and processes are formed to improve customer service shorten delivery time, reduce inventory and help lower overall cost in transportation and the making of new products in the business.
- the AGV are used in work places to move raw material and finished goods around the workplace.
- AGV move on a programmed path in the work place to avoid crashes and miss placement of goods.
hazards and storages
- picking up loads improperly and carrying loads that are too heavy or to large this cause strains and sprains.
- asking a coworker to help you move the item or using a lift truck up the heavy object and move it to its destination.
- materials shall not be stored on scoffolds or runaways in excess of supplies needed for operations.
- lumber should not be stakced and all nails should be removed for it to stable and self supporting to make the work place a overall safe place
safety procedures
- safety is important in whatever you do here are a few tips.
- when lifting heavy objects you must lift with your legs not your back and make sure you don't twist to avoid a back injury.
- make sure your wearing the right clothing when lifting. wear closed toe shoes like work boots avoid flip flops in case you drop something heavy on your foot when lifting.
