Design Part 2 Test

A newly constructed bridge was inspected to evaluate the load capacity of the bridge. During the inspection, fatigue cracks and stress fractures were discovered on the deck and supports. After reviewing the original plans, it was discovered the bridge was not built to original specifications

• Planning and developing
• Criteria and constraints
• Testing the bridge
• Safety procedures

The general requirements and limitations that are incorporated into the design of a structure are known as:

• creativity and innovation
• form and function
• criteria and constraints
• marketability and safety

Considering the given criteria and constraints, competing factors that will jeopardize the product efficiency will require a:

• budget
• specificaiton
• spin-off
• trade-off

If a product does not meet the established criteria during production, issues related to its:

• designs must be investigated
• ergonomics must be investigated
• quality control must be investigated
• regulations must be investigated

A speedboat is not permitted to go faster than 100 knots in a lake. Therefore, the company decides to redesign the throttle so it cannot exceed 95 knots. This is an example of:

• constraint
• criteria
• trade-off
• design challenge

A design team is making a new container for milk, and the customer needs the container to be tall. The size specification is considered a:

• criteria 
• constraint
• limitation
• function

The purpose of a case study when conducting problem-solving research is to:

• select an appropriate solution to a problem
• document where and how others have made mistakes in solving a problem
• make sure the designer has not stolen others solutions or ideas
• assess the current understanding of a problem

The requirements for a product to function efficiently are called:

• trade-offs
• impacts
• collaborations
• criteria

An engineer designing a laptop is told the device should be convenient to carry. This is most likely to affect the design process, creating constraints on:

• size and weight
• handle features
• processor speed
• applications and functions

The criteria and constraints of a product or system, and the determining factors on how they affect the final design and development, are called:

• requirements
• resources
• recommendations
• risks
