CONCLUSION ON THIS MODULE

The modules was direct and straight, the assignments are given in a way at which if you work hard, listen in class, and research more on your own, you would excel. In this module, I’ve learnt the different technical drawings that is very important in the construction industry. Symbols, annotations, dimensions, scales. These are very important elements in a clear and detailed drawing. I’ve also learnt to draw and ink with the right pressure. I do believe there is more to improve. The challenges I faced along the way is mainly the time constraint as I have to squeeze the assignment with other projects from other modules. But good time management has helped me to complete all assignments with ease.The guidance and comments from Mr Akmal every week would help me a lot in this assignment too.
