designing a bookshelf please, preferably with some sample
calculations and suggestions. Calculation of stresses,
deformation, bending moment, buckling load, safety factor, etc.
should be included if any of them are necessary. Thank you!
Scope of Project a) A customer usually approaches an engineer with a problem. For this project, you must act as the customer by identifying a design problem. b) Select any project from the list below, provided it: I) II) III) IV) Is approved by the instructor Utilizes the principles covered in the module Includes 3-5 students Is not a copy of a solution taken from a text book or from the previous work of other students c) Define the specifications and constraints for the problem. For example, the specification for a wall-mounted bookshelf could be: I) The bookshelf must support 25 textbooks and 20 large three-ring binders. II) The bookshelf must not sag in the middle by more than 3mm. III) The bookshelf must be 350 mm deep. IV) The factor of safety should be greater than two. d) Use standard design procedure and drawing conventions. e) You will not be building or testing anything for this project. f) Make it clear how you arrive at your final design, and show detailed drawings of your design with all the information necessary for someone to construct it. g) The design objective is low cost, but not at a loss in elegance or appearance and finish. Costs are to be estimated using nominal retail prices.
Assumption used in your mathematical analysis (5%). . Force and Load diagrams for the purpose of analysis e.g. (5%). Calculation of stresses, deformation, bending moment, buckling load, safety factor, etc. depending on the project selected (20%). Conclusion (State the design objective and the results of your calculations) (5%). . References and Appendices (5%).
