Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 26QTP
When designing patterns for casting, patternmakers use special rulers that automatically incorporate solid shrinkage allowances into their designs. For example, a 12-in. patternmaker’s ruler is longer than 1 ft. How long should a patternmaker’s ruler be for making patterns for (a) aluminum castings and (b) high-manganese steel?

1. The blank for the spool shown in Fig. below is to be sand cast out of A-319,
an aluminum casting alloy. Make a sketch of the wooden pattern for this
part, and include all necessary allowances for shrinkage and machining.
12.5 mm
12.0 mm
75.0 mm
100.0 mm -
A cubical casting of 100 mm side is to be made from steel using an Al pattern (master pattern). For preparing the master pattern, a wooden pattern is used. Determine the dimensions of master pattern and wooden pattern. Use shrinkage allowance (mm/mm) for steel and Al as 0.021 and 0.013 respectively
