0 0 4 2
This course enables the students to familiarize with the basic fabrication
practices and to explore the various devices, tools and equipment used.
Hands-on exercise is provided in various trade sections. Essentially student
should understand the labor involved, machinery or equipment necessary,
time required to fabricate and should be able to estimate the cost of the
product or job work which are fundamental tasks for engineering plans.
Course Objectives
Explain tools used in carpentry, fitting and sheet metal and
practice procedure of doing experiments.
Make the students to learn types of basic electric circuit connections and PCBs.
