•A comprehensive general engineering text for vocational students, apprentices and trainees•Provides knowledge and understanding required for competence-based courses•Builds on the success of Roger Timings' classic engineering textsA comprehensive introduction to engineering for students, apprentices and trainees.All students following a vocational course in general or mechanical engineering will appreciate the wealth of engineering knowledge and know-how that has gone into this book. The underpinning knowledge for a wide range of courses and competence-based assessments is provided here in one volume, along with detailed information on the practical techniques, health and safety considerations and best working practice that go to make a successful engineer. The wide scope of this book makes it an ideal core text for many courses and apprenticeship schemes worldwide.The coverage matches the following UK courses: Mechanical Engineering NVQs - Performing Engineering Operations NVQ schemes (EMTA and C&G 2251), Basic Engineering Competences (C&G 2010), Mechanical Production Competences (C&G 2280). It is also designed to provide underpinning knowledge for Foundation Modern Apprentice and Modern Apprentice schemes. The coverage is also appropriate for mechanical engineering units from Edexcel.Engineering Fundamentals is designed to meet the latest course requirements, and brings together the essential material from Roger Timings' previous engineering texts: Fundamentals of Mechanical Engineering, Fundamentals of Engineering, Basic Engineering Technology and General Engineering.A highly readable text is supported by numerous illustrations,learning objectives and exercises at the end of each chapter, making Engineering Fundamentals a complete student-focused course that is ideal for classroom, workshop and independent study.
