Note: The instructor reserves the right to make changes as necessary.

EXTREMELY IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON ASSIGNMENTS/QUIZZES. Note ... these instructions are

for your benefit. They are IMPORTANT to you ... IF you want to get the proper credit for the
work you do.
For ALL assignments, STAPLE the upper left hand corner. No cover page.
o Please separate Jensen HW from Howard HW (Solid Works drawings) from REDOS.

Page 2 of 13
 o In class/lab, there will be 3 STACKS of papers of assignment due for the day:
1. First is for Jensen
2. Second is for Howard, and
3. the 3rdone is for Redos with ORIGINAL attached.
o Put yours on the appropriate pile. Staple each of these Individual assignments in
the UPPER LEFT HAND CORNER and put each in the appropriate pile.

For ALL assignments/quizzes, to receive credits, please include the following information on
every piece of paper and/or drawings you are submitting. (HINT: The instructor may not be
able to give you the proper credit without this information. It is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to be
very clear. Handwritten is fine but make sure it is readable.)
1. Last Name, First Name as it is shown in the class roster/Bronco Direct e.g. Name:
Smith, Jonathan (not Smith, Jon)
2. Full Bronco ID e.g. BID: 123-456-789
3. Course#/Quarter e.g. MFE 126/Fall 2011
4. Assignment # e.g. Assignment#: Ch. 1 Tutorial Flange - fig. 1.98
5. Due date of Assignment e.g. Due Date: 10/5/2011
6. Page X of Y (if you are turning in multiple pages this is the entire package you are
submitting for the particular pile) e.g. Page 1 of 5

:

Make sure you label each problem

Laboratory assignments are due AT THE BEGINNING OF LAB.

o The laboratory drawings will be checked when due. If incorrect, an

symbol will

appear in the upper right hand corner of the particular piece of work, which stands for
REDO. One week will be given to correct the assignment. Staple and turn in your
corrected work along with the paper originally submitted for grading. Place this in a
separate stack for the redo assignments. Multiple failure may result in an F grade
for the course.

o Proof read your work product. I am NOT the proof reader. So watch for your mistakes.
Repetitive evidence of not proof reading your work product may become costly.

The class will be separated into working groups to peer review each others assignments prior to grading
by the instructor. Each member of this group will be required to review the drawings of the other two

Page 3 of 13
prior to submitting to the instructor. Flagrant errors will be penalized harshly as you have multiple
people who are checking these documents. As engineers ..."We must get it right!"
o After this is assigned, the laboratory assignments must be turned in with the
respective checklists(where appropriate) or will not be accepted. (See checklist
towards the end of the syllabus. The instructor reserves the right to update/revise the
checklist throughout the quarter. Updated version will be posted in the Blackboard).

Expect a quiz on every laboratory day, at the beginning of the lab. No make-up on
missed quizzes.

Late work will be considered only on a case by case basis (emergencies, etc.) and only if turned
in promptly after the deadline. Penalties for late assignments will be imposed and tend to be
severe. But remember, some credit is better than no credit..and you do not learn anything if
you do not make an attempt!

As many students will prefer to do laboratory work at home, they may leave the laboratory
session ONLY after the quiz has been taken, their work has been graded and returned, and any
announcements or instruction are finished.

Jensen HW solutions: The instructor will attempt to make the solutions available. Once they are
ready, instructor will inform you (via Blackboard) as to how to access them.

You may download a student version of Solidworks for your personnel computer. This is a 9-
month "freebee" with very limited Solidworks assistance. Depending on your internet
connection, it may take over 3.5 hours to download& install!
o SW 2015-16 Student Design Kit (365 day)
o Website: www.solidworks.com/sdk
o SDK-ID: 92015GGG
o Serial #: 902000579362642567DZVK59
WARNING If you plan to use the computers at Cal Poly lab as well as your own
laptop/computer at home, be sure that you download the same version as the
one installed in the lab. Otherwise, you may run into versioning issue
(=cannot open files).

Academic integrity will be enforced strictly according to university policy as

described in the university catalog. ANY act of dishonesty will result in expulsion
from the class and a failing grade. Acts of dishonesty include but are not limited
to: Copying assignments or providing them for this purpose, copying during
quizzes, copying during exams. Particularly tempting is to copy a
lab/homework/SolidWorks assignments. I routinely find people cheating and the
consequences are SEVERE! If you will miss the assignment dont turn it in at all, it
is better than failing the entire class.

If you cant dedicate the necessary time, drop the course now, and
take it later. The difficulty on this class is not the difficulty but
rather the quantity of material.

Page 4 of 13
SUPPLIES:
Memory storing device
Manual Drafting tools (ruler, 30o/60 o and 45 o triangles, compass, combination scale, pencils,
eraser, etc.)
Drafting paper: 1 grid sheet (.10 squares and 0.25 squares), isometric paper. (One option is
to use this http://www.printfreegraphpaper.com/. There are other options.)

COMPUTER USE POLICY:

Most of the computer labs in building 17 have Solidworks. A schedule will be posted outside of each lab
to indicate when the labs are available for independent work. Some instructors allow students to work
during their own lab time, if appropriate. THIS IS UP TO THE INSTRUCTOR. Proper etiquette is to ask
the instructor BEFORE his/her class begins if it is OK to do work there. DO NOT interrupt their class to
see if you can use the lab and do not just go in without their consent.

Being enrolled in this class, some computer memory will be allocated to your account. This memory is
for schoolwork use only. If music files or video files are stored, or your excessive use of memory
becomes a problem for the network, the administrator may have to erase all your files. Also, the
memory will be taken away at the end of the quarter, so ensure that you save elsewhere any files that
you want to keep.

Printing privileges for this class are 40 sheets of paper at the beginning, increasing by 10 pages/week.
This quota will not be increased, so make sure to manage your printing usage.

Always back up your work somewhere in addition to the schools account and/or your computer.

DETAILED COURSE CONTENT:

Construction geometry as it relates to technical graphics
Ability to interpret and construct multi-view drawings
Recognize and apply the rules of sectioning, auxiliary views, dimensioning, and tolerancing
Recognize tolerance as the deviation from design specifications, relate them to process
capability, and apply lateral tolerances
Recognize and apply allowances as special relationship between mating parts
Develop the ability to interpret and construct detailed drawings and assembly drawings
Learn Solidworks for generating technical drafting and solid modeling

POLICY FOR CLASSROOM AND LAB MANNERS AND OFFICE APPOINTMENT:

Turn off cell phone BEFORE entering the class/lab. Leave cell phone off during class/lab.
Put away all headphones, laptops/iPad/tablets, MP3 players, gameboys, etc. in your book bag
and leave it there through the end of class/lab.
Tardiness or leaving early without prior permission will definitely impact your overall grade.
No-show to a scheduled office hour will result in a reduction of your score.

POLICY FOR QUIZ/MIDTERM/FINAL:

NO cell phone during Quiz/Midterm/Final. Turn them off and put them in your book bag, NOT in
your pocket. Violation will result in automatic F for the course (including lab).
NO QWERTY calculator.
NO Bathroom breaks during Quiz/Midterm/Final. Go BEFORE test begins. If you must go, your
exam becomes VOID.
NO hooded sweater, hat, ball cap, etc.

SIGN-IN SHEET
Anytime during a class session, I may pass out sign-in sheet(s). I may pass it out at the beginning of the
class, in the middle of the class, towards the end of the class, or anytime of my choosing. It is YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY to make sure your presence is reflected at the time the sign-in sheet was routed.
For example,
If you came late and everyone has signed-in (hence, I have the sign-in sheet), your presence may
not be reflected or you may be marked late. As stated above, "tardiness or leaving early without
prior permission will affect your overall grade."
If you left early and I passed out the sign-in sheet after you leave, please do not e-mail me to let
me know that you were there. Your early departure may be the exact reason for the sign-in
sheet to be passed out.
If you did not sign-in because you were not paying attention, YOU ARE STILL RESPONSIBLE.

COMMUNICATION CHANNELS:
Cal Poly e-mail and Blackboard will be used as one of the communication channels between the
professor and students. Please ensure that your Cal Poly e-mail account is capable of receiving e-
mails (e.g. not full) and check Blackboard regularly for announcements and grades received. WORD
TO THE WISECHECK YOUR E-MAIL!

Occasionally, I will send out a survey (using survey monkey) to have you signed-up for
extracurricular activities, such as plant tours and extra lab session. These activities are offered for
your benefits. These types of requests require quick turn-around. Please make sure your email
does not block this type of survey and please respond promptly by filling out the survey (i.e., do not
send me an e-mail to sign-up. It will not be recorded).

Note: The instructor reserves the right to make changes as necessary to the information on this
syllabus.

GUIDELINES FOR FINAL PROJECT MFE 126

The class will be divided randomly into teams.

The assembly Butterfly Valve (Figure 10.66 in pages 539-540 of Bertoline text) should be prepared in
the following manner:

Report: Each report will consist of the following elements:

One working drawing for each component excluding standard components (washers, pins,
bolts).
One working drawing for the overall assembly (assembled or exploded) including standard parts.
Allowances are to be determined and calculated where the shaft mates with the body and also
where the shaft meets the arm.
Dimensions will be toleranced by the team following the following scheme:
o Critical dimensions: +/- 0.005 (those that move or mate functionally)
o Non critical dimensions: +/- 0.030
Surface finishes will be 125 rms on non-critical surfaces, and 16 rms on critical surfaces. The
team will decide which dimensions and surfaces are critical.

Due date is Week 9 of lab

Note: The drawings should be dimensioned and toleranced adequately (look at appendices in your texts)
and they should have uniform formats and a clean professional look. Information that must be given in
the drawings includes drafter, checker and supervisor (second checker), revision, part name, number,
surface finish, tolerances, material, 3rd angle projection, page x of x, etc. That is, as complete a title
block as you can make. Create your own company name/logo. Professional appearance as well as
accurate drawings are expected and will be rewarded accordingly.

STAPLE (no plastic report cover needed) on the left hand corner in the following order: cover page,
assembly, body, shaft, arm, retainer, and plate.

Each individual in the group will be asked about the level of participation of the other
members to see if adjustments in grades (up or down) for individuals within the group are
warranted.
