1. INTRODUCTION

The 18 Curriculum and Assessment Policy Statement subjects which contain a practical
component all include a practical assessment task (PAT):

AGRICULTURE: Agricultural Management Practices, Agricultural Technology,


ARTS: Dance Studies, Design, Dramatic Arts, Music, Visual Arts
SCIENCES: Computer Applications Technology, Information Technology,
Technical Sciences and Technical Mathematics
SERVICES: Consumer Studies, Hospitality Studies, Tourism
TECHNOLOGY: Engineering Graphics and Design, Civil Technology, Electrical
Technology and Mechanical Technology

A practical assessment task (PAT) is a compulsory component of the final promotion mark for
all candidates offering subjects that have a practical component and counts 25% (100 marks)
of the end-of-year examination mark. The PAT is implemented across the first three terms of
the school year. This is broken down into different phases or a series of smaller activities that
make up the PAT. The PAT allows for learners to be assessed on a regular basis during the
school year and it also allows for the assessment of skills that cannot be assessed in a written
format, e.g. test or examination. It is therefore important that schools ensure that all learners
complete the practical assessment tasks within the stipulated period to ensure that learners
are resulted at the end of the school year. The planning and execution of the PAT differs from
subject to subject.

SECTION A (TEACHER GUIDELINES)

2. STRUCTURE OF THE PAT

The Engineering Graphics and Design (EGD) PAT is a compulsory national formal
assessment task that contributes 100 marks (25%) towards a learner's final NSC mark. It is
therefore regarded as a third NSC examination paper.

The purpose of the PAT is to assess topics, content and concepts, which are contained in the
CAPS, but not assessed in tests or examinations. These are:
The design process
The application of the design process
The quality and neatness of freehand, instrument and CAD drawings
With the inclusion of the research component as part of the design process, content and
concepts that are not included in the CAPS may be included in the PAT. The PAT is therefore
designed to develop a learner's ability to integrate and apply knowledge that is taught and
self-acquired, and to demonstrate attained levels of skills and competency.
The PAT gives the learner an opportunity to apply knowledge in a creative way through the
design process. The learner is also given an opportunity to complete the PAT in an
environment which is more conducive to the creative processes. This environment should
therefore provide the learner with easier access to, and a wider variety of, resource material
than would otherwise be available in a formal test or examination.

The PAT is divided into THREE PHASES:


PHASE 1: The design process
PHASE 2: Preparing working and pictorial drawings
PHASE 3: Creating the PAT file/portfolio

The three PHASES require that the learner demonstrates a clear understanding of, and is
able to apply, the design process. As part of the design process, the learner must be able to
do the following:
Analyse the given scenario and formulate a design brief, which includes a list of
specifications, constraints and a management plan
Conduct relevant and usable research
Use the research in developing ideas/concepts/solutions, analytically and graphically,
using freehand drawings
Select a final solution that demonstrates a clear understanding of the design brief
Present the final solution as a set of working drawings and a pictorial (3D) drawing
Provide clear evidence of continuous self-evaluation during the development of the PAT
Create a PAT file/portfolio

PHASE 1 and PHASE 2 of the PAT have been designed to give the learner the opportunity
to demonstrate a level of competency and skill that has been attained in the following drawing
methods:
Freehand drawings, prepared using a pencil and grid/graph paper only
Instrument drawings, prepared in pencil and using drawing instruments
CAD drawings, prepared using a CAD program

TWO practical assessment tasks (PATs) are included in this document:


PAT 1 is a task in the context of civil technology, with an electrical component
PAT 2 is a task in the context of mechanical technology

With the guidance of the teacher, each learner must select and complete ONE PAT only.

Elements that make up the PAT mark for Engineering Graphics and Design
ELEMENTS OF THE MARK FOR THE PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT TASK
The design process 25%
The correctness of the working and pictorial drawings 50%
The drawing methods (freehand, instrument and CAD) 25%
TOTAL 100%

3. INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE PAT

The teacher must provide a copy of and mediate the entire SECTION B (pages 9 to 27) of
this 2024 PAT document to every Grade 12 learner no later than Week 7 of Term 1.

Each phase must be completed and assessed prior to commencement of phase moderation
in Terms 2 and 3, and provincial moderation in Terms 3 and 4.

The phases of the PAT must therefore be completed within the following timeframes:
PHASE 1: Design process (completed before the commencement of Term 2)
PHASE 2: Presentation drawings (completed before the commencement of Term 3)
PHASE 3: Completion of ALL presentation tasks and creation of file/portfolio (completed
in Term 3 before the commencement of the final provincial moderation, or at the
latest, before the commencement of the preparatory examinations).

Although the PHASES could be completed either cyclically or during block times, as
indicated in the CAPS, it is recommended that one entire day per term be allocated for each
PHASE, e.g. as an extra paper during the May/June Examinations.

Teaching time allocated for the preparation and completion of all three PHASES of the PAT
may not exceed 16 hours. However, additional non-teaching time may be allocated for
the completion of the PAT at the school, but the total time allocated for the completion of
ALL the PHASES of the PAT should NOT exceed 20 hours.

To ensure that the PAT is completed within the stipulated timeframes, it is essential that the
teacher prepares and communicates a management plan/pacesetter with target dates. This
will help learners to monitor their own progress, and for the teacher to implement intervention
programmes.

NOTE:
To ensure the integrity of the PAT as a 'third NSC examination paper', the following
additional instructions must be adhered to. Non-compliance to any of these, and afore-
mentioned instructions, will be deemed a serious examination irregularity.
Except for clean A4 and A3 drawing sheets and grid/graph paper, NO templates, tables,
pre-prepared pages/drawing sheets, redrawn examples of the site plan, etc., may
be given or made available to the learners in any form or format.
NO examples of possible or suggested solutions of any component of the PAT may
be provided to, procured for, or demonstrated to the learners in any form or format.
This includes, but is not limited to, examples developed, or demonstrations presented
by any individual, group, department, institution, organisation or business.
Explanatory examples, such as graphical illustrations, best practices from previous
years' PATs, etc., may ONLY be presented to the learners during the initial mediation
of the PAT. As these examples may not be given to the learners or left for them to view
indefinitely after the initial mediation, learners must be encouraged to take notes during
the mediation, but may NOT take any photographs or videos.

Engineering Graphics and Design 6 DBE/PAT 2024
NSC

It is the responsibility of the teacher to ensure that each learner's PAT is of an


appropriate Grade 12 level and complexity.
ALL presentation requirements of the selected PAT must be strictly adhered to.
Except for the required research component, ALL the presentation requirements of the
PAT must be completed at school under the supervision of the teacher.
Although the sharing of knowledge and ideas between learners is permissible, no
presentation may be shared or copied as the entire PAT must be completed
individually. ALL the presentations, including the front page, index/table of contents,
management plan, tables, drawing sheet preparation, etc., must be each learner's own
original work.
ALL freehand drawings and instrument drawings must be prepared in pencil.
ALL learners must be encouraged to work on their own, with minimal intervention.
Developmental feedback and guidance may ONLY be given on presentations or a
PHASE that has already been attempted/prepared/completed, or when the learner
requests it.
When learners prepare drawings in CAD, the following must be adhered to:
o The school must provide the facilities, including the CAD program and
computers. The school must hold the licenses of ALL the CAD programs used
by the learners, and NO other programs may be used by any of the learners.
o ALL CAD drawings must be prepared at school under the supervision of the
teacher.
o The opportunity to be trained using a CAD program must be made available to ALL
learners, regardless of whether they make use of it or not.
o As the teacher remains responsible for assessing both the competence displayed in
using a CAD program and the layout and correctness of the drawing presentations,
he/she must have sufficient knowledge of and skills in the CAD program used.
o Electronic and hard copy evidence of the history of the stage-by-stage
development of each learner's CAD drawings must be retained at school for a
period of time as stipulated by the Department of Basic Education (DBE).
o During the moderation process learners may be called upon to explain the functions
and principles of operating a CAD program, and to demonstrate drawing skills
through performing capability tasks.
The DECLARATION OF AUTHENTICITY, given on page 27 of this document, must be
completed and signed by the learner and teacher just prior to the final assessment.
The SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT SHEET, given on page 26 of this document, must be
completed in full for each learner following the final assessment of the PAT.
The teacher must ensure that ONLY the completed SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT
SHEET, DECLARATION OF AUTHENTICITY and relevant CHECKLIST used by the
learner are included after the index in each learner's completed PAT file/portfolios.

4. ASSESSMENT AND MODERATION OF THE PAT

4.1 Assessment

Assessment of the PAT must be done according to the included and relevant 2024
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA AND CHECKLIST.

As frequent developmental feedback is needed to determine and provide guidance and


support to the learner, as well as to ensure that they are on the right track ('assessment
for learning'), both formal and informal assessment must be conducted throughout the
development of the PAT. Informal assessment may be conducted by either a peer or
by the teacher.

Engineering Graphics and Design 7 DBE/PAT 2024
NSC

The teacher must conduct ALL formal assessment and record the results on the
official mark sheets. The marks of each learner must also be indicated on the official
SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT SHEET (see page 26), which must be included in the
learner's PAT file/portfolios. Where a school has more than one Grade 12 EGD
teacher, the teachers must assist one another by conducting PAT assessment as a team.
This will ensure a consistent standard of assessment across all the learners.

The final formal assessment must be completed before commencement of final


provincial moderation or, at the latest, before the commencement of the preparatory
examinations in the Term 3.

Once the PATs have been assessed and moderated, the teacher/school must retain
ALL the PATs for external moderation. ALL the PATs must also be retained at school
for a period of time as stipulated by the provincial departments of education (PEDs).

Clarification of level descriptors and the verification of marks:


1-mark level descriptor:
There is NO percentage (%) for the 1-mark level descriptor, and it is used for
elementary/basic presentation requirements and/or drawing features, and must
be applied as follows:
o '0' (zero) must be allocated for the requirement not met, or if the presentation
thereof is incorrect.
o 1 mark may only be allocated if the requirement has been met fully and the
presentation thereof is correct.

2-mark level descriptor:


o '0' (zero) must be allocated if the requirement has not been included/shown,
or if the presentation of the requirement shows less than 30% evidence of
knowledge, or when the requirement is very poor.
o 1 mark may only be allocated if the presentation of the requirement shows at
least 30% or more evidence of knowledge, or if the requirement is NOT
complete or NOT completely correct, NOT compliant and/or clear, i.e.
average.
o 2 marks may only be allocated if the presentation of the requirement shows at
least 80% or more evidence of knowledge, and the requirement is more
than 80% complete, correct/compliant and clear, i.e. very good.

7-mark level descriptor


Refer to the 7-mark rubric on page 45 of the CAPS document for the level
descriptors. This implies that a '7' can only be allocated if the presentation
requirement(s) is 100% correct/compliant, i.e. outstanding and error-free.

Verification of ALL final marks out of 10:


Each final mark out of 10 must be verified according to the descriptors contained
in the rubric on page 25 of this document. This implies that a '10' can only be
allocated if the presentation requirement(s) is 100% correct/compliant, i.e. perfect
and error-free.

Rounding-off of marks:
Each mark out of 10 must be rounded off before being captured on the
SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT SHEET (see page 26) and the recording/mark sheet.
A mark of 9,5 must, however, remain 9 as the 0,5 is an indication of a mistake.
The final mark out of 25, 50 and 25 for each of the three complete sections of the
PAT must also be rounded off after being calculated.

4.2 Moderation

Moderation of the PAT must be conducted using the included 2024 ASSESSMENT
CRITERIA AND CHECKLISTS, and according to the same level descriptors used
for assessing the PATs.
As monitoring and/or moderation of the PAT can take place at any stage during the
development of the PAT, ALL completed and unfinished presentations of ALL the
PATs must always be available at the school.
To facilitate intervention programmes and processes, the following school-based and
cluster/district moderation must be done during Terms 2 and 3:
Phase 1: Design process (beginning of Term 2 before the commencement of
PHASE 2, or at the latest before the mid-year examinations)
Phase 2: Presentation drawings (beginning of Term 3 before the commencement of
PHASE 3)
NOTES on the final provincial Grade 12 PAT moderation:
ALL the schools in ALL the provinces must be moderated.
The moderation must be conducted by officially appointed, trained and
authorised provincial PAT moderators. Peer, cluster, PLC or district moderation
may therefore NOT be implemented to conduct the moderation.
PEDs must ensure that the moderation commences early enough so that it can
be concluded before the commencement of DBE and/or Umalusi moderation,
or at the latest by the end of Week 3 of Term 4.
To assist the moderator with the moderation process, the teacher must supply a
complete set of updated mark sheets and merit lists.
At the beginning of the moderation process, the moderator must randomly select 10%,
with a minimum of THREE and a maximum of SIX PAT files/portfolios. The selected
PATs must be:
No. 1 .2 . 3 a low mark
No. 4 .5 . 6 a low mark
If the selected PATs do not provide a consistent result, THREE additional PATs, i.e. a
high-, an average/middle- and a low-mark PAT, must be selected and moderated to
obtain a more constant result.
If a school has more than ONE Grade 12 EGD teacher, THREE PATs, i.e. a high-, an
average/middle- and a low-mark PAT must be selected from each teacher.
The concept of 'benchmarking' should be applied when moderating the PATs. This
requires that a PAT with a highest mark, but preferably the PAT with the highest mark,
must be moderated first to establish a standard against which all the other PATs of
the school can be benchmarked.
NOTE:
A tolerance range of ONLY 5% is permissible between the average assessed mark
and the average moderated mark of the PATs selected for moderation. Only once
moderation has been completed, must the more than 5% difference between the
average marks of the moderated PATs be applied to the rest of the PATs.

5. CONCLUSION
On completion of the practical assessment task, learners should be able to demonstrate their
understanding of the design process, their enhanced knowledge, skills, values and reasoning
abilities as well as establish connections to life outside the classroom and address real-world
challenges. The PAT furthermore develops learners' life skills and provides opportunities for
learners to engage in their own learning.

6. PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT TASK 1 (PAT 1)

A civil design project

SCENARIO

The National Monuments Council of South Africa recently restored historically significant
buildings on a wine estate on Plot 36 of 61 and declared them national monuments. To cater
for visitors, permission was granted by the National Monuments Council to build a new
restaurant and small museum on the estate. You have been tasked by the National
Monuments Council to submit a proposed design solution for the proposed new restaurant
and small museum, which will forthwith simply be referred to as the restaurant and
museum.

The restaurant must be a single-storey brick structure with a maximum total area of 200 m².
The roof must be a gabled design with a 500 mm overhang on all sides, with corrugated steel
roof sheeting, and finished with facia boards, gutters and rainwater downpipes on the sides,
and barge boards on the ends. The restaurant must consist of a large open inside dining area
of no less than 110 m², a large kitchen with a separate scullery and a separate pantry, unisex
toilet facilities, and a toilet facility for disabled people. In the dining area there must be a
dedicated section with a large countertop for serving a buffet lunch on Sundays, and for the
display and sale of over-the-counter eats and refreshments on all other days. There must be
wide wooden multipanel sliding doors, with three or more panels, along two adjacent walls of
the dining area leading out onto an adjoining 3 m wide veranda which runs along the same
two adjacent walls of the restaurant. The veranda, which is not included in the 200 m² of the
restaurant, must be covered by wooden pergolas, as it will be used as additional outside
dining space.

The kitchen must have a floor area of no less than 35 m² and be situated at the back of the
restaurant. The kitchen must be separated from the dining area by a brick wall, with a single
180° swing door leading into the kitchen and a single 180° swing door leading out of the
kitchen into the dining area. There must be a single sink, built-in cupboards and sufficient
work surfaces for the preparation of food and placing of kitchen appliances, as well as space
for two large refrigerators and two large industrial stoves in the kitchen. Leading off the kitchen
must be a separate scullery with two double sinks and space for two dishwashers, as well as
a separate lockable pantry. The scullery and the pantry must each have floor areas of
approximately 10 m². Both the kitchen and the scullery must have an exterior door and
windows.

The unisex toilet facility must be directly accessible from the inside dining area of the
restaurant. The facility must consist of FIVE separate cubicles, each with a toilet, a wash basin
and its own small window. One of the cubicles must have a larger door and more space to
accommodate people in wheelchairs.

The building for the museum must be a single-story semi-detached 6 x 8 m brick structure
that stands adjacent to, and shares a common wall with the restaurant. The museum must be
accessible off the veranda, but must have no direct access into any part of the restaurant. To
complement the heritage of the estate, the entrance to the museum must have a typical
centrally placed decorative Cape Dutch facade above a double wooden door with sash
windows on either side. The museum must have a gabled roof with a corrugated steel roof
sheeting finish.

The new restaurant and museum must have sufficient electrical lighting and switched socket
outlets in all the rooms and areas. All sewage and waste-water from the restaurant must be
connected to the manhole on the municipal sewerage line in Hillside Road.

Included in the design must be driveways and a parking area with 10 standard-size parking
bays and, situated close to the restaurant, two parking bays for disabled people.

The first paragraph must, in your own words, give a brief background to the
project, as well as a comprehensive description of what has to be designed.
The second paragraph must, in your own words, give a clear overview of your role
in the project, as well as a description of the complete design process that you
are going to implement to complete this project.

From the scenario and your teacher's management plan, include the following as part
of the design brief:
A list of TWENTY of the given specifications for the restaurant and museum
A list of FIVE possible constraints. Note that the specifications you have listed may
not be repeated or reworded as possible constraints.
Your own management plan that specifies target dates for the completion of each
presentation requirement

2. Conduct research on:


Examples and construction details of wooden multipanel sliding doors with THREE
or more panels
Examples and construction details of wooden pergolas
THREE examples of gabled roof designs and THREE examples of Cape Dutch gable
facades with timber doors and sash windows

Engineering Graphics and Design 12 DBE/PAT 2024
NSC

NOTE:
The research must be relevant and should therefore be in the form of graphic
material, i.e. pictures and illustrations.
Evidence of at least FIVE different examples that covers all the requirements of each
research topic must be included in the PAT file/portfolio, unless otherwise stated.
The research material must be aesthetically presented and may NOT exceed FOUR
A4 or TWO A3 pages per topic.
There must be clear evidence that the research has been used in your design
solution.
Include a list of ALL references used (Bibliography), directly after the research.

3. Prepare neat detailed freehand drawings of the floor-plan layout of TWO possible
design solutions for the proposed new restaurant and museum, including the veranda.
Each freehand drawing must show the correct presentation of ALL the building features,
the permanent fixtures, the rooflines, as well as the primary dimensions and labels. The
calculation for the total area of the restaurant, excluding the veranda and the museum,
and the floor area of the kitchen, must be clearly shown in a table on the drawing sheet
as part of each freehand drawing.

NOTE:
Grid/Graph paper must be used to assist with the preparation of the freehand
drawings so that ALL features and fixtures are drawn to proportion. The grid/graph
paper used must be included in the PAT file/portfolio.
ALL aspects of the freehand drawing, including dimensions, labels, tables and
possible information blocks, must be prepared using a pencil ONLY. The use of
any other drawing instruments, e.g. a ruler or compass, will be penalised.
The electrical layout and the waste-water disposal systems are NOT required on the
freehand drawings.
The freehand drawings may be prepared on either A4 or A3 drawing sheets.
NO borders or title panels are required for the freehand drawings.
ALL the freehand drawings must comply with the guidelines and graphical symbols
contained in the SANS 10143.
The drawings must provide clear evidence that a high level of competency has been
attained in the freehand drawing method.

4. Select the best solution that demonstrates an in-depth understanding of the scenario.

On a separate page, compare and evaluate the TWO freehand solutions by:
Creating a table with a minimum of SIX relevant and self-explanatory descriptive
criteria that will facilitate measurable comparisons
Creating and applying a simple, self-explanatory rating scale to score each
solution against each criterion
Justifying each score by describing the positive and/or negative aspects of each
solution against each criterion

Complete the process by writing a comprehensive summary giving reasons for your
selected freehand solution. The summary must include whether any late changes were
made to the selected freehand solution, or not. If there were late changes, they must be
clearly described.

7. PRACTICAL ASSESSMENT TASK 2 (PAT 2)

A mechanical design project

SCENARIO

A valve is a device used to control the flow of liquids or gas through a pipe allowing movement
in one direction only.

You are employed at a design consulting firm that is subcontracted by the Department of
Water and Sanitation. The department is looking for solutions to improve the efficiency of
manually operated VALVES that control the flow of liquids or gasses in the agricultural,
manufacturing and construction industries. Examples of valves include, but are not limited to,
gate valves, globe valves, needle valves, ball valves, butterfly valves, check valves,
diaphragm valves and float valves. Examples of some of these valves are shown below.

Butterfly valve Globe valve Gate valve


[Source: valvesonline.com.au]

As one of the design consulting firm's designers you have been tasked with investigating and
analysing the design features of existing control valves, and to then design an
improvement(s), which could be, but is not limited to, one or more of the following:
Improved efficiency
To strengthen its design
To modify its design

Your investigation, analysis and solution require the following stages:


The FIRST stage involves finding a suitable valve that controls the flow of liquids or
gasses. The valve must be a manually operated device that incorporates mechanical
movement and consists of a minimum of FOUR parts.

The valve that you have selected will simply be referred to as the valve from now on.

NOTE: You are NOT required to purchase a valve. The valve should therefore be one
that is readily available to you.

The SECOND stage involves the dismantling of the valve so that ALL the individual
parts can be investigated, measured and photographed.

The THIRD stage requires the identification of ONE of the complex main parts, or a
combination of parts of the valve, which could be improved, strengthened and/or
modified in some way. This will necessitate the application of the design process, as
stipulated below in the presentation requirements.

Engineering Graphics and Design 18 DBE/PAT 2024
NSC

Requirements and specifications for the valve:


Each learner must have his/her own valve for the PAT.
The valve must be submitted as part of your PAT presentation.
The valve must incorporate manually operated mechanical movement, with a
minimum of FOUR separate parts.
Taps or electrical, electronic or pneumatic valves may NOT be used.
Your teacher must approve the valve. This is to ensure that it meets the requirements
and that a PAT of an appropriate higher-order Grade 12 complexity can be produced.

PHASE 1: PRESENTATION REQUIREMENTS

1. Analyse the given scenario and formulate a design brief in two paragraphs:
The first paragraph must, in your own words, give a brief background to the
project, as well as a comprehensive description of what has to be designed.
The second paragraph must, in your own words, give a clear overview of your
role in the project, as well as a description of the complete design process that
you are going to implement to complete this project.

From the given scenario and your teacher's management plan, include the following as
part of the design brief:
Your own list of ALL the specifications of the valve
Your own list of at least THREE constraints of the valve
Your own management plan which specifies target dates for the completion of each
presentation requirement.

2. Conduct research on:


The material used for each individual part of the valve
The specific design features and/or function/purpose of each individual part of
the valve
The design and components of at least ONE other valve that is similar to the valve
that you have selected.

NOTE:
The research must be relevant and should therefore be in the form of graphic
material, i.e. pictures and illustrations.
Evidence of ALL the required research material must be included in the PAT
file/portfolio.
The research material must be aesthetically presented and may NOT exceed FOUR
A4 or TWO A3 pages per topic.
The first two research requirements will primarily be hands-on investigative research,
which must be presented using a comprehensive set of detailed photographs taken
during the second stage. Include labels and/or notes indicating the material and the
function (purpose) of each individual component.
The evidence of the ONE other similar valve may be in the form of a comprehensive
set of pictures, illustrations and/or photographs, together with explanatory labels and
notes.
There must be clear evidence that the research was used in your design solution.
Include a list of ALL references used (Bibliography), directly after the research.

3. Prepare neat detailed freehand drawings of TWO possible design solutions of the
proposed improvement, strengthening and/or modification of only the complex main
part, or a combination of parts of the valve, as identified during the third stage.

Engineering Graphics and Design 19 DBE/PAT 2024
NSC

Each set of freehand drawings must consist of relevant orthographic views and an
isometric drawing(s). ALL the freehand drawings must show the correct presentation of
ALL the features of the valve and include dimensions, labels and explanatory notes.
Include a short explanation of the possible improvement, strengthening and/or
modification.

NOTE:
Grid/Graph paper must be used to assist in preparing the freehand drawings so
that ALL features are drawn to proportion. The grid/graph paper used must be
included in the PAT file/portfolio as evidence.
ALL aspects of the freehand drawing, including dimensions, labels, tables and
possible information blocks must be prepared using a pencil ONLY. The use of
any other drawing instruments, e.g. a ruler or compass, will be penalised.
The drawings may be prepared on either A4 or A3 drawings sheets.
NO borders or title blocks are required for the freehand drawings.
ALL the freehand drawings must comply with the guidelines and conventional
representations contained in the SANS 10111.
These drawings must provide clear evidence that a high level of competency has
been attained in the freehand drawing method.

4. Select the best solution that demonstrates an in-depth understanding of the scenario.

On a separate page, compare and evaluate the TWO freehand solutions by:
Creating a table with a minimum of FOUR relevant and self-explanatory
descriptive criteria that will facilitate measurable comparisons
Creating and applying a simple, self-explanatory rating scale to score each
solution against each criterion
Justifying each score by describing the positive and/or negative aspects of each
solution against each criterion

Complete the process by writing a comprehensive summary giving reasons for your
selected freehand solution. The summary must include whether any late changes were
made to the selected freehand solution, or not. If there were late changes, they must be
clearly described.

PHASE 2: PRESENTATION REQUIREMENTS

5. Present the valve that you selected during the first stage, and the selected improvement,
strengthening and/or modification thereof as a set of working drawings and a pictorial
drawing (5.1, 5.2 and 5.3) that meet the following criteria:
ALL the working drawings must be prepared on appropriately sized drawing sheets,
set up with correct borders. ONLY the first drawing sheet (i.e. for 5.1) must be set
up with a complete mechanical title block, as presented in the NSC EGD
Paper 2 analytical questions.
The drawings must provide clear evidence that a high level of competency has been
attained in the following TWO drawing methods:
o Instrument drawing
o CAD (computer-aided drawing/design)
NOTE:
o ONE entire working drawing (i.e. 5.1 or 5.2) must be prepared using a pencil
and drawing instruments, and the other using a CAD program.
o The isometric drawing (5.3) may be prepared using either a pencil and drawing
instruments or a CAD program.
