Design & Fabrication Technology – Grade 912 – Full Year – 5 Credits This fullyear foundation level introductory program is the prerequisite entry to our STEM department ( S cience, T echnology, E ngineering & M athematics) and consists of two different semester courses: Design and Fabrication. The Design and Fabrication courses are designed to: provide students a general understanding of the design process & what is required for an idea to be transformed into a manufactured product or problem solution; introduce students to some realworld tools, technologies & techniques used to effectively explore, visualize, communicate, develop, document & prototype ideas/product solutions and to provide the student a handson, project based opportunity to develop a basic skill set for future design & STEM based physical problem solving. Students will be scheduled for both courses either taking Design during semester one and Fabrication during semester two or visaversa. The design course includes: an overview of the design process & the cycle for transforming an idea into a final product; concepts of 2D & 3D sketching & visualization, lettering, multiview drawings & orthographic projection; understanding proportion, measuring & scale; technical drawing including mechanical drawing/table drafting, using AutoCAD to generate 2D CAD drawings & how to read a set of plans; an introduction to Illustrator & Photoshop; enhancing & working with images across multiple program platforms and an introduction to some STEM Lab technologies. The fabrication course offers students the opportunity to learn & apply concepts relating to: physical problem solving; the nuances of working in a specific material (wood); the fabrication process planning, processing, assembly & finishing ; fabrication best practices; safe & proper use of hand tools, power tools & woodworking machines; reading plans/following complex instructions; assembly & finishing and possible educational & career opportunities in the content area.

1. Understands the necessary assembly preparation, post assembly cleanup & part/project storage steps. 2. Correctly prepares parts prior to assembly. 3. Follows the proper procedures for clamping, screwing &/or nailing parts together and effectively cleans squeeze out while

glue is still wet. 4. Correctly breaks all sharp edges & performs final sanding to remove residual machine marks/pencil lines & prepare

surfaces to accept stain. 5. Demonstrates an understanding of the required preparation & set up for staining, use of the proper “one area at a time”

staining approach, correct application & removal of/wiping off excess stain and staining cleanup protocols. 6. Demonstrates an understanding of the required preparation & setup for applying clear coat, use of the proper “inside to

outside” & “sand/clean between coats” multilayer clear coat application/finishing approach and clear coat/brush cleanup protocols.

Essential Questions 1. Why are parts, subassemblies & assemblies dryfit before final assembly? 2. What does it mean to be “prepared for gluing”? 3. At what stage in the finishing process do you erase/remove all pencil marks & why? 4. How does the grit designation on sand paper relate to coarseness/fineness & in which order are sandpapers of different

grits used? 5. What is the relationship between wood grain direction & sanding direction? 6. Why is it better to clean off wet glue vs cleaning glue after drying & why does it matter? 7. Why do we “break unfinished edges” & perform “final sanding” after final assembly? 8. Why is the “one area at a time” application approach & time management so important when staining wood? 9. What are the steps required to achieve a high quality multilayer clearcoat finish?


1. Identify techniques during the fabrication process that optimize final product quality. 2. Activities identifying proper gluing & clamping techniques & procedures, appropriate sanding techniques, correct &

aesthetically considerate fastener utilization and proper application of finishes. (20 class periods)
