Design Engineer Questionnaire Answer precisely against each question 1. Design Software 1.

1 Draw the component (Sketch 1) given to you in CAD software (to be done after the questionnaire) 2. Standards 2.1 List various material standards you have exposure to. Include both National and International standards 2.2 Do you have exposure to design standards Name an international standard for pipe wall thickness calculation Name an international standard for flanges Name an international standard for hydro testing a pressure vessel 3. Selection of materials 3.1 What are the primary properties taken in to consideration for selecting a material for a particular application? Suggest a suitable material for sea water application 3.2 What are the commercially available pipe sizes? 3.3 What are the commercially available plate thicknesses? 4. Machine Shop Knowledge 4.1 What is a slide fit? What are the general tolerances for a slide fit? 4.2 What is an interference fit? What should be the tolerances for an interference fit of a 25mm dia shaft in to a bush? 4.3 What is the included angle for a NPT thread? 4.4 What is the included angle of a BSP thread? 4.5 How do you denote a surface finish for a component finished by machining? 4.6 How do you denote a surface finish for a component finished by grinding? 5. General 5.1 Show by small sketch a typical edge preparation for welding a butt weld joint 5.2 What is the maximum working pressure/hydro test pressure for ASME Class 150 pressure vessel? 5.3 What is the process for joining two 0.5mm thick steel sheets? 5.4 What do you do if there is a feedback from the shop floor that a component is failing / fouling? 5.5 For example You have arrived at a calculated shell wall thickness of 3mm for carbon steel material. Would you propose this thickness in your design?
