Course detail
Selected Chapters from Fundamentals of Design
FSI-0ZKAcad. year: 2025/2026
The course deepens information about the basics of creating of design documentation in terms of drawing, dimensioning and dimensional accuracy. The principles for determining the relationship between surface quality, geometric accuracy, function and interchangeability are extended. Following the requirements of students, attention is focused on the choice of quality of materials, suitable semi-finished products and basic standardized functional and technological elements. The principle of selected manufacturing technologies and their connection with the choice of dimensioning system is explained.

At the end of the course, students with more than 60% attendance at lessons will be awarded course-unit credits.
Attendance at lectures is checked.
Aims
The subject provides students with knowledge of technical drawing, dimensioning, accuracy of size and geometric accuracy, surface finishing, material selection, semi-finished materials, and standardized functional and technological elements. Students learn to apply such knowledge taking into account function and interchangeability of parts manufactured from worked semi-finished materials on the drawing. Possibility of graphic editors utilization.
