In this unit you are going to make a range of engineered products.
By the end of this unit you will:-
- Be able to ‘read’ an engineering drawing.
- Be able to measure and accurately ‘Mark out’ materials.
- Be able to identify different engineering tools & equipment.
- Be able to select the correct engineering tools & equipment needed to make an engineered product.
- Be able to use engineering tools & equipment correctly.
- Be able to ‘Evaluate’ a completed engineered product.
- To be able to identify risks in the workshop
You will complete Four practical projects by reading engineering drawings and using tools and equipment .
Always engineer what you make to the highest possible standard; you will not be allowed to take home anything you have made that is not well finished, and most importantly,safe to use.

Be able to ‘read’ an engineering drawing. | 1.1
Read and interpret engineering drawings. |
I can identify the units, metric or imperial, used to produce the drawing. I can talk about the scale used to produce the drawing. I can identify some different lines and measurements. | I can read a drawing and identify a range of drawing elements: hidden detail, centre lines, construction lines, dimension lines, materials used, date, and scale. I can say whether the drawing is 2D or 3D identifying the projection used; isometric, third angle orthographic. | I can confidently and independently read a drawing identifying a range of drawing elements: hidden detail, centre lines, construction lines, dimension lines, materials used, date, and scale. I can say whether the drawing is 2D or 3D identifying the projection used; isometric, first or third angle orthographic. |
Be able to measure and accurately ‘Mark out’ materials. | 1.2
Select and use engineering marking out tools. |
With some help and guidance I can use marking out tools to mark out the materials I will use to make my engineered product. | I can select and use, with minimal guidance, marking out tools to mark out the materials I will use to make my engineered product. I can identify an engineer’s steel rule, pencil, Scriber, Engineer’s square, Marking gauge, Centre/dot punch, Callipers. | I can confidently and independently select and use marking out tools to mark out the materials I will use to make my engineered product. I can identify an engineer’s steel rule, pencil, Scriber, Engineer’s square, Marking gauge, Centre/dot punch, Callipers. |
Be able to identify different engineering tools & equipment. | 1.3
Describe the purpose of common engineering tools & equipment found in an engineering environment. |
I can name and write a sentence about at least 3 engineering tools. I can sketch or find a picture of each. | I can describe the purpose of at least 5 examples of engineering tools & equipment. I am able to find pictures or sketch them, and add descriptive labels. | I can describe in detail the purpose of a wide range of engineering tools & equipment. I can identify and write about variations in the equipment.
I am able to find pictures, sketch them, and add descriptive labels. |
Be able to Select the correct engineering tools & equipment needed to make an engineered product. | 1.4
Select the most appropriate common engineering tools & equipment for an identified purpose. |
With some guidance I am able to select the correct tool required to complete a given practical task. | I am able to select the correct engineering tools & equipment required to complete a given practical task.
I am able to say why the tool is the most appropriate for the task I have been given. |
I am able to select the correct engineering tools & equipment required to complete a given practical task.
I am able to clearly explain why the tool is the most appropriate by comparing to other engineering tools & equipment. |
Be able to use engineering tools & equipment correctly. | 1.5
Perform operations with common engineering tools & equipment, for an identified purpose. |
I am able to use a range of engineering tools & equipment with some success. I may need help and guidance whilst using them. | I am able to use a range of engineering tools & equipment. I can adjust and alter my techniques to improve ease of use, and quality of outcome. I use the tools with little help or guidance. | I am able to demonstrate skill and ability with a range of engineering tools & equipment. I am able to adjust, develop and modify my techniques through analysis and evaluation. I use the tools independently and can offer some guidance to my peers. |
Be able to ‘Evaluate’ a completed engineered product. | 1.6
Perform a product evaluation on the engineered product made in the academy workshop. |
I am able to write sentences that describe what I have managed to achieve by making my engineered product. I can suggest ways that I could improve or modify my product. | I am able to write in some detail about the processes I have used to make my product. I can suggest ways to improve or modify my product. I can make suggestions about alternative materials that could have been used to make my product. | I am able to write in detail about the processes I have used to make my product. I can suggest ways to improve or modify my product. I can write in detail about alternative materials and techniques that could have been used to make my product. |
To be able to identify risks in the workshop | 1.7
Demonstrate a safe working environment throughout |
I am able to work safely in a workshop, and recall 3 of the safety rules. | I am able to work safely in the workshop. I have due respect for my own safety and that of others. I am able to carry out a risk assessment on at least two of the engineering tools & equipment I have used. |
