 Question 1

1. The design process step 3 is referred to as the make stage. It is important to plan for this stage.
Planning includes those activities which are involved when working out, in advance, how a
product, process or system is to be produced or realised before actually doing it. Make notes
regarding the materials needed by finding answers to the following questions:

A) What different types of material are needed?

Different types of materials required for projects include:
 Wood: commonly used in various tasks like structural projects.
 Plastic (e.g., Acrylic): versatile material used for items like containers or shelter prototypes.

B) What should the quality of the different materials be?

 Durability: materials should be strong enough to ensure the longevity and robustness of the
product.
 Suitability: materials should be fit for the purpose of the specific task, ensuring safety and
performance.

C) What are the sizes of the available raw materials?

Sizes of materials depend on the task. Common sizes include:
 Acrylic sheets: available in rods or tubes of various dimensions
 Wood: generally supplied in standard sizes such as 500mm to 1,200mm

D) Will the different materials have to be cut to size?

Yes, materials will need to be cut to the appropriate size depending on the project. Tools used for
cutting include:
 Saw: for cutting wood or plastic.
 Craft knife: for more precise cutting on smaller materials

E) Will the different materials have to be shaped?

Yes, shaping is essential. Materials like acrylic will need to be bent or shaped at high temperatures,
while wood might require sanding and filing.
