Design engineer is a general term covering a range of engineering disciplines including electrical, mechanical design, industrial and civil engineering, architectural engineers in the United States and development engineers in the United Kingdom.The design engineer is distinguished from the designer / drafter by the fact that a design engineer take care of the overall system as well as internal / engineering design. While industrial designers will be responsible for the aesthetic and ergonomic aspects of conceptual design, design engineers typically works with a team of engineers and designers to develop designs, conceptual and Detailed initial and most critical part. They can work with industrial designers and marketing to develop product concepts and specifications, and they can direct the design effort from that point. These products are usually designed with input from several sources such as marketing, manufacturing, purchasing, tool making and packaging techniques. In addition to dealing with system design engineers and scientific technology is more complex (aircraft, spacecraft, Rockets, trains, ships, dams, bridges, building structure, urban infrastructure, machines, production systems, propulsion systems, oil, gas, and mining exploration systems, manufacturing process, military systems, cars, electronics, computers, power systems - nuclear, fossil, wind, marine, and power distribution system). In many areas of engineering, distinction is made between design engineers and planning engineers in the design.Planning engineers are more concerned with designing at the system level is more engineering, and overlap in the operational phase is often required. Design engineers, by contrast, is more concerned with designing a specific new product or system.Evaluation is important for planning engineers, while the synthesis is essential for design engineers. When the design involves public safety, the design engineer is usually required for a license, for example a Professional Engineer in the U.S. and Canada. Often there is an 'industrial exemption' for design engineers working on internal projects for the company and do not provide professional services directly to the public.

10 Tips for successful engineering students
According to a recent survey by the Higher Education Research Institute at UCLA, one third of new students planning to major in science and engineering, while about 8 percent of all freshmen withintention to focus on proper technique. Some engineering students to land an important leadership role in the United States and around the world, while others. . . thus, each field has its "lesser lights".
We are interested in what is now an engineering student can do to get on the fast track to career success. We invite bloggers to visit Edward Crawley, an engineering professor and director of the M.Gordon Bernard leadership in engineering at MIT, to share with us the advice he gives to his own engineering students. Here are some tips on the best, most of what works for all students aspiring to a career:
1. Identify people who inspire you, and find out what motivates them. If you like the product of Apple, Steve Jobs may be your idol, or perhaps the love and Segway creator Dean Kamen. You can find lots of information about jobs and Kamen, or almost any other important people in technology, so consider using it to help people and businesses to be so successful. Then imitate the good qualities in their personal lives and professional school.
2. Develop a portfolio of projects. The opportunity to participate in practical learning experience that lets you schedule balanced. In this way, you will have something unique to show prospective employers (or VC) as they pass, while other students will only be a list of their courses. In addition, it is much more likely to retain the knowledge you gain in class, and that will be used in the process, improve communication and interpersonal skills.
3. Learn the value of the network. When it comes to being a leader, who know it is almost as important as what you know. Attend lectures on campus and introduce you to the speakers. Check with your alumni association of the school to get a list of alumni from your program that want to deal with students.
4-Star Council. In addition to e-mail, you can use LinkedIn or other social media tools to get online. But remember: There is no substitute for a meeting, the traditional face to face, so if you can find a way to meet in person, it is always better.

4. Teamwork much as possible. If it comes to creating a solar-powered car, involved in sports, or writing for the school newspaper, involved with an organization that requires a team effort to produce good results. Throughout your career, you can be sure it will work as a team and develop skills in school will help prepare you to lead a team when you graduate.
5. In search of an informal leadership role. You are always a leader, if you are formally in charge of a team or not. It sounds contradictory, but can lead from a position within the organization, affecting the way people work together and how they make decisions. Usually people think that the leader is the president or the administrator, but if you learn to recognize and deal with different styles of leadership from any position within a team, you will be seen as a leader when you take your first job or internship .
6. Find their weaknesses, and fix it. Like any other skill, leadership needs constant repair. If you are part of the team, trying to create a way to get feedback from team members, group leaders, and teachers. If you have specific information about how people see you, you can work to improve their skills, including communication and leadership. In addition, you learn to accept and give constructive criticism. It is absolutely necessary for their future career.

7. Take a business class. As an engineer, not enough for you to become a technical expert, you must have knowledge of business.If you are going to be a leader, you need to understand what the P & L is (also known as income statement), read the letter from the organization, know how to negotiate a contract, and become familiar with the functions of a myriad of other that every engineer in the need to know. If not, you will not understand what to do when an accountant, lawyer, or in the way of middle managers. A business course or two can take you far, and these classes are easier to pass the calculus course they are!
8. Take classes of designs and other humanities. There's a world out there beyond the problem sets, practice and theory. Take a visual design course you will learn to graphically represent ideas.Take a course in cognitive science to study how people interpret the world and understand it. Take a literature course to develop knowledge and appreciation of the classic books that will help you write and communicate more effectively.
5-Star Council. Future leaders must communicate effectively across international borders and become familiar with other cultures, thereby developing some skills in other languages, traveling abroad or to meet with students from other cultures. Start the "globalization" is on campus.
9. Make your summer production. Employers place great value on practical experience. Look for opportunities for active and practice at the beginning of his academic career. Trying to show through the development of a series of practical leadership experience and practices of building your portfolio with the actual project / product.New graduates who can demonstrate a commitment to use their summer vacation to continue learning always viewed more seriously by potential employers.
10. Recruit and develop staff administration board as a student, you may feel alone when faced with difficult decisions about courses to take, jobs to apply for, or even school-life balance and staff. Do not feel alone if you have a staff table just for you. Just as companies have a board that guides the organization, to share with professional associations and business organizations, as well as former teachers and friends of the family informed.
Extra pointers. Be sure to "maintain" his advice: Stay in touch with them, giving them current information, ask for guidance, and be sure to thank you for the help they provide. And do not be afraid of conflicting advice. If members offer different proposals, which will have the opportunity to balance an idea against another and make their own decisions, as in real companies.

Basic structural drafting standards, symbols and shop drawing
Structural standards based on best practices and about the engineering code established by the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) and the American Standards Institute (ANSI). Structural drawing practice refers to the style or drawing job quality provided by the coorperate and individual for the job. It is characterized by crisp black line work, letters, consistency, and uniformity. Production of precise drawing job detail is an art and a real engineering achievement.
Actual concept of a structural framework must be provided on the architect / engineer drawings' s design. These drawing are converted into detailed drawings to give the necessary instructions for the fabrication and installation of assembly of structural members of different stores. Through an interpreter CAD shop drawings convey all the necessary technical information for the store to make the structural components.
To prepare the necessary drawings with accuracy, the interpreter must have comprehensive knowledge of standard engineering specifications, a better understanding of shop fabrication and field erection process, and must have the skills necessary for preparation of structural. Therefore, it is clear that the compilers of optimal structural develop drawing skills.
Drawing Number:
All structural drawings should be marked using standard designation. Typically, images are numbered sequentially with the letter "S" (S1, S2, etc.)
Drawing Scales:
The standard unit for the structural dimensions of the foot. Typically, the scale is marked as feet and inches. Each scale is based on the "Architect's Scale" which can be utilized for the structural drawings.
Title:
Everything in the drafting job must have a title such as plan view, elevation, section, detail, field notes, etc. The title is mentioned brave enough to catch the viewer's eyes. To provide excellence, the title underlined. Line, double line, or a combination of thin lines and thick can be used to underline.
Dimensioning:
Dimensioning drawing styles in the preparation of structure drawing is the same style used in the general architectural drafting. Outline dimension lines, continuous unbroken by figures placed above the dimension line. Its obvious that not to put the numbers down the line dimensions.

Standard of Scale Figure
Each drawing are maked has a different size. There are small and there are great. It is therefore often impossible to draw a picture in the paper size images particular, in actual size. For this drawing size must be minimized if the object is large, and must be enlarged if the object too small. Reduce or enlarge drawing job done with a certain scale. The scale is linear in proportion to the size of the drawing linear from actual objects.
There are three kinds of scale drawings, namely:
a) The scale of enlargement
The scale of magnification used if the drawing is made larger of the actual object. For example if the object is small and complex such as the control circuit on the street light, then should use to describe the scale enlargement this circuit. Appointment to the scale of magnification is: x: 1, whereas complete the recommended sizes are:
50: 1; 20: 1; 10: 1 5: 1, 2: 1
b) Full Scale
Full scale is used when the drawing job was made as large with actual objects. This scale is recommended for as much as may be used, in order to imagine the objects actual, or to facilitate the examination. Appointment of full scale is 1: 1
c) The scale of the downsizing
The scale of reduction is used when the image is made more smaller than the actual image, while the appointment is 1: x. Here is a list of recommended downsizing the scale of appointment:
1: 2 1: 5 1: 10
1: 20 1: 50 1: 100
1: 200 1: 500 1: 1000
1: 2000 1: 5000 1: 10000
If made on a large scale, when the image is reduced
advised to refer to the format DIN (Deutsche Industrie
Norma / German industry norm), so the details will appear
clear

Learning AutoCAD For Oil & Gas Engineering Field
freelance drafter, This time I will explain about the importance of learning autocad for oil & gas fields of engineering jobs. I will explain that design engineering jobs and oil & gas sector is mostly about the foundation and pipe support, skid (drag media) for piping as well as for tank / vessel is in oil & gas plant jobs.To make drawing or drafting design for field of oil & gas engineering there are a lot of programs / add on applications, that are often used by designers to create a design drawing like the support pipes, such as programs Microstation, PDMS (Plant Design Management System), Tribon, Foran etc, are software design widely used as an alternative drawing on oil & gas fields.Well for those of you who have learned AutoCAD and want to upgrade to this level, please to learn more on this blog, God willing, I will discuss in next article.
Back again to the topic, for oil & gas sector widely used on the same principle, namely drawing foundations, reinforced concrete and structural / steel frame. And it is very possible if you want to stay in this field, learn autocad with objects above you will surely meet again. But the difference if you become a professional designer, you should be able to calculate the material required for fabrication needs, so in addition to drawing you should be able to calculate the material. Because I suggest you to learn autocad also must be able to count all the objects that you have been drawing pictures and making lists of materials for fabrication needs.
If you just want to be a drafter or if there is a chance you upgrade your level to be a professional designer, start now to learn Autocad while you learn to calculate the material. And also I'd suggest getting to know the object / building materials that are commonly used in the project, such as steel, iron, wood, screws, plates and others.
My advice if you want to succeed in the world of engineering jobs especially in freelance drafting jobs, whether you want to be a enginer , freelance drafter or a designer, you should be able to operate AutoCAD design software as a condition to fulfill the job in this field. Very lucky if you add the expertise of other programs as I mentioned above (PDMS / workstations, Tribon, Foran etc.).

ISO standard for engineering drawings
When Freelance drafter begin to make a drawing in AutoCAD, there are habits that are less appropriate for beginners. Freelancer immediately draw without any layer. Though the layer is very important for the regulation of each object image. Freelance drafter only need to create a single master file with a standard layer, save it and if freelance drafter want to create a new project to stay Save As ..
What layer in accordance with ISO standards?Freelance drafter can give layer name with any name, which is important for your own informative. Referring to the freelance drafting technique when I had a separate list. Please if freelancer want to follow.
1. Layer outline, with the type of line CONTINUOUS, 0.5mm thick lines [used to outline objects / object].
2. Layer CENTER, CENTER lines of type, 0.3mm thick lines [used to outline objects flashlight].
3. Layer Hatch, with CONTINUOUS line type, line thickness 0.2mm [used for shading line].
4. Layer HIDDEN, HIDDEN line with the type, 0.2mm thick lines [used to describe a hidden line outline].
5. Layer DIMENSION, by type CONTINUOUS lines, thick lines of Default.
List above is only a fraction is made, in line with the freelane drafting jobs that you created can develop more.
Create a layer in AutoCAD jobs:
1. Open the AutoCAD home design software program . Create File> New.
2. type LAYER at the command prompt or click the icon
4. Click the New Layer icon, AutoCAD home design software provides a blank field to give a name. Afterwards click the Color box to give color, linetype box to determine the type of line, last lineweight click the box to determine the thick line.
5. Freelancer can instantly create an image, which of course objects created should be entered in accordance with the layer rules.
Here's a screenshot of the image created by the layer:

what is a freelance drafting jobs as pipeline engineer ?
Basically, the pipeline is made to channel the fluid from one place to another place, i.e. from platform to another platform, or from the wellhead to the platform. The fluid can be either gas or liquid, like oil and water. Pipeline system could be on the mainland, onshore pipeline, and under the sea, or on offshore subsea pipeline. Pipeline System, commonly known also as the term trunkline, export line, or flowlines. Pipeline could be buried in a state (buried) and just laid on the ground.
Freelance drafting jobs as pipeline engineer is to design his pipe according to specification from owner. What is the diameter used, the quality of the pipe, how thick pipe, how to avoid adverse effects of corrosion, how to be safe and stable, how do freelance drafter determine the construction including pipe lines.
Cool analysis of terms that are often encountered when designing a pipeline: route selection, wall thickness analysis, on-bottom stability, corrosion protection, expansion, or spanning freespan, buckling analysis, and installation analyisis.Starting from make route of pipes, check stability until how to install the pipe, not until have designed but can't be installed
Pipeline freelance drafter struggling with the name metocean data (Current, wave, tidal, etc), bathymetric data, soil profile and properties (Undrained shear strength, soil stiffness, embedment, etc.) and Mathcad sheets. Most design calculations using Mathcad. So, must be able to operate mathcad software.
So, can you imagine freelance drafting jobs as pipeline engineer?

Advantages of Using Autocad
Freelance drafting jobs are generally completed with Autocad software. Autocad is one of the design program with a computer image that is quite sophisticated. Slowly but surely the experience of Autocad drawing automation, replacing manual functions that had been dominating the work in all fields. Autocad drawings can be accepted by most other drawing programs and can be printed using almost any printing equipment. Autocad has a fairly complete facilities to create an image - the image of two-dimensional and three-dimensional.
Some reasons to use Autocad than the manual way to produce the drafting jobs:
Accuracy: With this level of precision to 13 digits, Autocad has a perfect accuracy rate and more secure than with manual drawing. In manual drawing, image accuracy is determined by the thoroughness and precision hand eye which is very possible occurrence of errors.
Practicality, Easy, and Speedly: drafting and editing facilities that make Autocad more perfectly capable of producing much faster than the manual way. Commands Copy, Array, Block, etc. allows us to create and edit images en masse and quickly.
Cleanliness and Neatness: With Autocad editing commands that are owned, allowing freelance autocad drafter to revise and examine the images before it - was printed, so the resulting images are clean and perfect without a trace - the former editing, deletion and sweat or crumpled paper like that found in the manual image .
Workspace Unlimited: Autocad has an infinite workspace for drafting jobs.. So that Autocad drafter can make pictures of as many as in the same space. Autocad drafter can print it part by part or all at once with the right scale.
Flexibility Scale: Autocad allows one image is printed over and over - once with different scales - different scale without having to recreate the image. Things can not be done on the image manually. By setting the proper scale when printing the drafting jobs, autocad drafter also can choose the units used in the picture, whether mm, centimeters, meters, miles, inches, and so on.
Documentation: The file storage system, the image will be stored permanently. Autocad drafter can easily and quickly duplicate the drafting jobs and revise it later if there are design changes without having to create images from scratch again. With storage media floppy disk or CD Autocad drafter can bring - take drafting jobs easily and edit anywhere.

what is AutoCad???
The process of drawing with a computer using AutoCAD software is a simple, easy, and takes a short time. A glass picture can be drawn in less than 2 minutes by experienced operators with design accuracy and scale while full-scale building plans can be drawn in less than 7 minutes. AutoCAD drawings then can change the two-dimensional images into three dimensions in the steps are verysimple, therefore, suitability for mechanical engineering or acompany. Architects often use software to draw the intricatedesigns of buildings from conceptual sketches. More ideas and watch the draft is almost perfect in a variety of angles anddimensions of the building with a capacity of 3-dimensional AutoCAD.
The best thing about this software is that you do not need to have prior knowledge of technical drawings to operate the software. So AutoCAD software is suitable for industrial and apparel makers and entrepreneurs such as embroidery, all types of contractors(electrical, construction, automotive, mechanical) for large-scale manufacturing businesses as long as there are many technical drawings involved in the operation.
