Question

An entry-level engineer is given the job of creating a detailed assembly drawing of a trailer-mounted pump and motor assembly. The engineer models major components such as the diesel motor, the pump, and trailer frame as well as the small parts such as wheels, tires, nuts, bolts, and lights. When the job is complete (after 10 solid weeks of work) and all the drawing elements are correct, the work is presented to the supervisor. What reaction would be expected from engineering management? Was this an efficient use of resources? Do you have suggestions that would streamline the process?

Answer 1

Well detailed assembly drawing should contain enough information to manufacture the part as well as suitable,

fully dimensioned orthogonal views of each part with other information that may be required in the manufacturing process.

Assembly drawings show how components are fitted together to make a complete component.
And in the question, above they didn't mention this how their components are linked together.

In detail assembly drawing it should clearly show how the parts fit together and indicate how the unit
may function. So the engineering management will raise a question about component linking

and how unit may function.

NO, this is not an efficient use of resources.

Two major points are missing :
1.How components are fitted together
2.How unit may Function.
