ENGINEERING MEASUREMENTS - I
1. RATIONALE : Work in an industry is characterized by certain specific features which in turn makes certain demands on the technician. First of all, he must be able to accurately measure physical quantities using appropriate measuring equipment. He must perform all experiments and related operations accurately in strict accordance with the relevant manual, standards or text books. Particular care must be taken to use these apparatus/ instruments carefully. This course on Engineering Measurement intends to develop elementary measurement skills in the students. It is an interdisciplinary course emphasizing the development of personal attributes like spirit of enquiry, problem solving etc. Some elementary skills in error analysis, safety precautions and interpretation of results are to be developed through this course. 2. SCHEME OF TEACHING : Sr. No. 1. 2. 3. Particulars Planning & Introduction Preforming Experiments Assessment/Submission Total 3. OBJECTIVES : The students should be able to : * * * * Use appropriate units for each physical quantities. Read the physical quantities for basic measuring instruments . Record Observed data in the designed observation table accurately. Compute/Report the results based on the measurements taken accurately wherever necessary. Hours 04 20 04 28
