Hello

Yes, confirmed for 8 a.m. Wednesday.

Standard parts do not need to be very detailed. There are models that you can often just use to show such items. If, however, there is a part that has some geometric feature that may be a constraint, or is subject to loading that you need to model, then of course you will have to produce some representation of it.

Hello Dr. Lipsett,

I was wondering if I could drop by sometime tomorrow. I have few questions that I wanted to get it cleared as soon as possible.

It is regarding the drawings for mass manufactured products such as bolts and nuts and also items that we are purchasing from industrial distributors such as three way valves or tubes. Do we need to have detailed drawings for these items?

Also, for some of our subsystems such as mixing shaft, we included all the calculations on the shaft in our phase 2 report so can we still include it in our phase 3 report with the changes that will be recommended by the markers? In the marking scheme it says to not include the analysis from phase 2 so our group is confused on that part.

Also,  we are confirming for the regular weekly advisor meeting for this Wednesday morning. 

Thanks,
Abhishek
