  2. Vocabulary items Propose (v.): to suggest or intend to do sth E.g. When you design a device, you need to identifya need, research possible solutions,design  proposed products,prepare models, manufacture the prototype, test the result, and usefeedback from peers and professionals to improve thedevice. 

  3. Vocabulary items Draw up (Phr. v.): to make or write sth that needs careful thought or planning E.g. A plan must also be drawnup to ensure that parts are made in the right order for assembly. 

  4. Vocabulary items Solution (n): a way of solving a problem or dealing with a difficult situation E.g. The technology education teacher could ask the students to list possible solutions and provide reasons for selecting their finaldesignsolution, which would require the students to carefully think through the various options.

  5. Vocabulary items Function (n): the intended use of sth E.g. The prime operating functionofa check valve is to close quickly at flow reversals to prevent damage to upstream piping and piping components.

  6. Vocabulary items Constraint (n): a thing that limits or restricts sth E.g. Real problem is that building any project in such a remote, poor village imposes strict constraints on any design.

  7. Vocabulary items Exceed (v): to be greater than a particular number or amount E.g. Provided that the maximum surface strain does not exceed 0.1 percent such problems do not usually arise.

  8. Vocabulary items Existing models: competing products already on the market, or the current model that the new product will replace E.g. Sales of existingmodels of Boeing and Airbus aircraft are strong, and both companies are developing new models.

  9. Vocabulary items Design features: specific things a new design must have E.g. After you identify specific designfeatures (design criteria) and take detailed measurements and identify cost, manufacturing requirements, and constraints of the product, you will be able to determine which product model provides the optimal design solution. 

  10. Vocabulary items Budget: the money that is available to a person or organization and a plan of how it will be spent over a period of time E.g. Remember this: people will remember good work (or bad work) a lot longer than they will remember if you were a week late or over budget.

  11. Vocabulary items Cost-effective: producing good results for the amount of money spent; efficient or economical E.g. The project is highly cost-effective, costing only around £ 12000. The project of the other firm costs £ 20000.

  12. Vocabulary items Specifications (noun):  a detailed description of design criteria for a piece of work including information about materials, sizes, and technical requirements of components. Specify (verb) E.g. The specifications for the new building was sent by the company yesterday. Itspecified the materials and sizes, but there was no information about the technical requirements of the components.

  13. Vocabulary items Evaluate: Identify and calculate E.g. Engineers need to evaluate the forces that the components will have to carry when they are designing.

  14. Vocabulary items Load:  something that a person, animal or thing is carrying. E.g. An example of load is furniture stacked into a moving van.

  15. Vocabulary items Determine : Identify, to find out exactly, calculate precisely E.g. When you determine the loads that a bridge will have to carry, you need to think of every detail such as strong winds.

  16. Vocabulary items Quantify : To quantify means to measure or express the quantity of something. E.g. An example of to quantify is to count the number misspelled wordsin a book.

  17. Vocabulary items Worst-case scenario: The worst situations that you can think of E.g. You need to be ready by planning for the worst-case scenario.

  18. Vocabulary items Allow for/ factor in: take into account, take into consideration E.g. You need to allow for the maximum load so that you will be ready for the worst-case scenario.

  19. Vocabulary items Factor of safety: The extra margin to make your design really strong. E.g. A factorof 1.5 increases the load a component can carry by % 50.

  20. Vocabulary items Size: Measure, calculate their size. E.g. Please bear in mind if downloading from the Internetthat the map is usually for A4size and is no good for a book.

  21. Vocabulary items Overdesign : Add excessive factors of safety E.g. Overdesigningis necessary but it increases the costs.

  22. Vocabulary items Murphy’s law: The idea that «anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.» E.g. When you are in a hurry, the bus is always late. It’s the Murphy’s Law.

  23. Vocabulary items Belt and braces: using more than one method to make sure that something is safe. E.g. Our staff have identity cards and number codes to open doors - that's part of our belt and braces approach to security.
