HW#3 - Lesson L05
Part I
TCC SE campus has an administrative organizational structure. Learn about this structure and use CAD (Computer Aided Design) tool such as Autocad or TinkerCAD to draw an organizational chart, from the President down to the level of either department heads or deans. In case you can’t access to any CAD tools. Please sketch the chart by hand and scan your hand sketch to a PDF file.

Part II
Some project managers prefer the PERT chart over the Gantt chart because it clearly illustrates task dependencies. A PERT chart, however, can be much more difficult to interpret, especially on complex projects. Alternatively, some project managers may choose to use both techniques. If you are the project manager of a residential construction project, will you prefer PERT chart to Gantt chart? Explain
why.
I would prefer pert chart because it is more of a network diagram. It highlights dependencies and it makes it easier to determine the duration of the project hence why a lot of project managers would use pert.

Please select 3 out of 5 as follows.
1. Imagine that you are Dr. Zephram Cockrane, the inventor of plasma warp drive on the television and movie series Star Trek. Prepare several logbook pages that describe your invention.
2. Imagine that you are Dr. Maven, the engineer involved in the HeartTech case of section 3.3.7 on page 120 from the textbook edition 5
th
or the Heartthrob case of section 3.3.7 on page 113 from the textbook edition 4

.
Sketch the logbook pages that outline the basic operating concept of your transcutaneous energy transfer device.
3. The invention of the incandescent light bulb is largely attributed to the famous American inventor, Thomas Edison. Reconstruct the logbook pages that Edison may have kept describing his classic design efforts.
4. The first pocket calculator was designed by Jack Kilby, an engineer for Texas Instruments. Look up the history of this inventor, and see if you can reconstruct the
probable appearance of one or more pages from his logbook.
5. Imagine that you are designing a solar energy power generator that can generate
electricity to your entire house for 24/7. Sketch the logbook pages that outline the basic design concept of your generator. Provide schematics and diagrams as needed.

Part IV
1.
Use your own words to explain why documentation is important to engineering design? What type of documentation will you use for engineering design and why?
Documentation is important as it is evidence to explain why and how an engineer came up with the design. It also shows I prefer technical documentation because as
you go and think you write ideas, notes, and brainstorm. 2.
Use your own words to describe the differences among patent, copyright and
trademark and why they are important to engineering design?
Patent is used to protect an invention, copyright protects someone’s original work, and trademark protects brands/slogans. These are important
