[8/4/2015] Detailing and Working Drawings: Assembly Drawings Observation.

Following up from the previous observation, this was a do-it-at-home task. Where we divided our work accordingly and do it at home. This time we were told to search for an assembly drawing for any kind of furniture, preferably loose furniture and with that drawing we have to come out with a plan, elevation, section and a blow-up drawing for it and provide specifications.

For my group (Eka, Fauza, Wei Xin and Susanti) we chose a loose furniture from IKEA which was the BEKVÄM, Step stool.

They provided a PDF. file for assembly instruction which was very helpful for us. 

We studied each of the drawing and wrote down measurements and started drawing out what we were asked to.

I realized how coming out with this together with your group members is a good advantage in helping out each other memorizing and teaching how to come out with a proper detail drawing with proper ways to write down the specifications. It is part of the learning process.

[8/4/2015] Detailing and Working Drawings: Built-In Furniture Observation.

Today, we learnt how to draw a detail drawing for built-in furniture. In groups (Fauza, Eka, Susanti and Wei Xin), we have to come out with detail drawings of our chosen built-in furniture. 

And this was what we chose, a set of kitchen cabinets.

We were told to draw out a plan, elevation and section drawings from the observation above and provide a blow up drawing alongside with specifications.

[1/4/2015] Detailing and Working Drawings - Practical 01: Observation

In group of 4, we were told to choose a furniture in the E5.17 studio and my group chose the console table that s used by the lecturers.

From there, we were tasked to draw out in our way the plan, elevation and section of the drawing alongside mentioning the material used for the furniture. This was an in class task. This was to rewind back on how to draw technical drawing.

After the it ended, Miss Norji explained on how to draw out a correct detail drawing with the mentioning of specifications and dimensions. From there, she gave us a tasked where with the same chosen furniture, we are to do a proper detail drawing with the help of examples she gave us.

And this is how mine turned out.

This helped me have a knowledge of how to draw a detail drawing and help me understand better the differences in technical drawings.

[25/3/2015 & 1/4/2015] Detailing & Working Drawing

We had our first Detailing & Working Drawing class today. We were told to buy a B5 sketchbook from Daiso and design the cover page according to our own ideas. She asked us to do this, is because she wanted to see our sketching skill. Honestly, I'm really bad at sketching but I think I did quite well.

And so our first lecturer started today. Miss Rafidah explained very well in how to differentiate between presentation drawings and construction drawings. In between, Miss Norji tested us on how well we understood the lecture or not and at the end of lecture we had a little fun group activity where we had to come out with a detailed drawing of the chosen furniture in the E5.17 studio. We had to draw out the plan, section and elevation of the furniture and state the material that was being used to make the furniture.

And my group which consisted of me, Eka, Susanti and Wei Xin chose the table which the lecturer mostly uses

After each group finished producing their work, both of the lecturer projected each of the groups' drawings. This way we could observe together how they did. It also to rewind back on the do's and do not's on technical drawing. For example, the symbol to indicate our elevation or the symbol for this type of material or even the way we draw out our plan/section/elevation. In the end, it refreshed our mind and we start to remember little things on technical drawing again.
