ASBE Design Challenges
Goal: ASBE's goal is to provide real world design challenges to students. In the drop down menu Design Competitions > ASBE are descriptions of the various design problems. With each design project a series of files are provided to the student for download. These files provide a starting point to begin any project. Layout information is also provided within each design project.
NOTE: ALL PARTS ARE IN METRIC (mm)
Creo Reference Video: Setting/Changing Units
OnShape Reference Tutorial: Setting Default Units per Workspace
Title Block: Use attached Title Block form for Layout: ASBE Title Block
NOTE: Title Block should be removed from the zip folder and placed with the design files. Paper Size: D Size
Layout
Layout of all design challenges should include
- Min. Layout Requirements: Min. of 2 orthographic views, BOM Chart, Isometric of object
- Assembly/Shop Notes
- Description of design
- Views: Orthographic (Multi-Views, Section, Auxiliary, etc.), Pictorial (exploded, assembled partially assembled) or any other type of drawing
that conveys the overall scope of the project.
- Optional: Recommend saving copies of the Files as they are modeled/assembled to show how they changed overtime to place on the Layout.
Design Concept Layout ONLY: Include the following (NOTE: Optional for Engineering Design
- Sketches showing the Design Process
- Min. 1 Page Paper Describing the product and design process
