Description The second edition of this established textbook fully covers the most popular specialist units of the Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing
Engineering and Operations and Maintenance Engineering pathways of the 2007 BTEC National Engineering syllabus.
Units covered:
Unit 8 – Engineering Design
Unit 10 – Properties and Applications of Engineering Materials
Unit 11 – Further
Mechanical Principles and Applications
Unit 12 – Applications of Mechanical Systems and Technology
Unit 15 – Electro,
Pneumatic and Hydraulic Systems and Devices
Unit 18 – Advanced Mechanical Principles and Applications
The look of
this new edition has been radically improved and colour has been added to make the book more accessible for students. Key points highlight
the most important concepts. Mathematics is backed up with numerous examples to work through and activities for students to complete
out of the class room help put the theory in context. Test your knowledge quizzes throughout the text ensure students can test their
understanding of the preceding text, while end of unit review questions are ideal for exam revision and set course work.
