Make products cheaper without concern for quality
Focus only on aesthetics
Which of the following best describes the circular economy?
Linear use of materials from production to disposal
Recycling materials continuously to reduce waste and resource use
Using only biodegradable materials in products
Designing products without any need for repair
Purpose-driven design focuses on:
Creating multiple design ideas without testing
Developing ideas that meet specific user needs and improve through iteration
Designing for aesthetics only
Copying existing products exactly
Which of the following is NOT a secondary research method?
Reading journal articles
Conducting interviews
Analyzing market reports
Searching online databases
What is product disassembly useful for?
Improving product aesthetics
Understanding how a product is made and how it can be improved or recycled
Increasing manufacturing costs
Designing unrelated new products
Prototyping allows designers to:
Avoid testing and go straight to manufacturing
Create a preliminary model to test ideas and functionality
Skip user feedback
Only focus on the final product appearance
Ergonomics primarily considers:
The environmental impact of materials
How users physically interact with products
The product's color and style
Manufacturing costs only
Anthropometric data helps designers to:
Understand human body measurements to improve product fit and comfort
Select materials for production
Calculate product weight
Determine product cost
Primary research includes:
Reviewing existing literature
Surveys and interviews with potential users
Reading market reports
Watching product advertisements
In ACCESS FM, what does the 'E' stand for?
Efficiency
Environment
Ergonomics
Economics
Which of these is a correct example of a design criterion?
The product should look expensive
The product must be safe to use and durable
The product should be made quickly
The product must use the cheapest materials available
Which legislation directly impacts product safety?
The Health and Safety at Work Act
The Copyright Act
The Road Traffic Act
The Data Protection Act
Why are standards important in design?
To reduce costs only
To ensure consistency, safety, and quality of products
To make products harder to use
To slow down manufacturing
Which of the following materials is most likely to be imported?
Locally sourced oak wood
Rare metals like titanium from overseas
Recycled aluminum from the UK
Manufactured plastics made onsite
Labour costs in manufacturing are influenced by:
Number of workers and time taken
Only material prices
The size of the factory only
The product’s weight
Which of these is NOT one of the 6 R’s of sustainability?
Reuse
Recycle
Remove
Rethink
Surface finishes are used to:
Change the product’s appearance and protect it from damage
Increase the product’s weight
Make the product harder to recycle
Remove all user interaction
Orthographic projection is:
A 3D model of the product
A 2D representation showing multiple views of the product
A freehand sketch without measurements
A list of product features
Dimensioning techniques are important because:
They decorate the drawing
They provide precise measurements for manufacturing
They confuse the user
They help in marketing the product
Which line type is used for hidden edges in technical drawings?
Continuous thick line
Dashed line
Dotted line
Continuous thin line
Freehand sketching is useful for:
Creating quick concept ideas before detailed drawings
Producing final technical drawings
Measuring materials
Writing reports
In technical drawing abbreviations, what does 'Ø' indicate?
Diameter of a circle or hole
Length of a side
Material type
Surface finish
User testing is important because:
It helps designers identify if the product meets user needs and find improvements
It increases production time
It makes the product heavier
It is only done after manufacturing
3D printing allows designers to:
Quickly create physical prototypes layer by layer
Make only 2D sketches
Avoid prototyping
Manufacture final products at mass scale
Card modelling is a good method for:
Testing electronic circuits
Creating low-cost physical models to visualize design ideas
Producing metal parts
Making software simulations
Breadboarding is primarily used to:
Build and test electronic circuits without soldering
Construct wooden models
Sketch ideas on paper
Paint product prototypes
In a chair case study, which manufacturing consideration would affect design?
The type of joints used for strength and assembly ease
The color of the chair only
The user's age exclusively

Mass production is characterized by:
Making many identical products efficiently
Producing one-off custom items
Using only hand tools
Designing without plans
Which of these is an example of a wasting process?
3D printing
Injection molding
Milling or cutting away material from a block
Assembly of parts
How does manufacturing impact the circular economy?
It can enable recycling and reuse through design choices
It always increases waste
It prevents disassembly
It only affects packaging
