tutor. by which metals fail is important for all engineers if they are to use and
apply metallic materials safely. In this unit you will measure properties
such as hardness and tensile strength using testing equipment and
investigate in-service failures.
How you will be assessed
This unit will be assessed by a series of internally assessed tasks set by your tutor.
Throughout this unit you will find assessment practice activities to help you work
towards your assessment. Completing these activities will mean that you have carried
out useful research or preparation that will be relevant when it comes to your final
assignment.
In order for you to complete the tasks in your assignments, it is important to check
that you have met all of the Pass assessment criteria. You can do this as you work your
way through each assignment.
If you are hoping to gain a Merit or Distinction grade, you should also make sure that
you present the information in your assignment in the style that is required by the
relevant assessment criterion. For example, Merit criteria require you to analyse and
discuss, and Distinction criteria require you to assess and evaluate.
The assignments set by your tutor will consist of a number of tasks designed to meet
the criteria in the table. They are likely to take the form of written reports, but may
also include activities such as the following:
~ Carrying out destructive test procedures on a range of metallic samples.
~ Carrying out non-destructive test procedures on a range of metallic samples.
~ Analysing case studies and assessing physical evidence to investigate in-service
component failure.

, Getting started
Work in a small group to describe all the properties that you associate with
metallic materials. When you have come up with at least eight properties
between you, go on to identify an engineered product or an engineering
process where each of the properties you have identified is important.
