CARPENTRY
Introduction:
Carpentry may be defined as the process of making wooden components. It deals with the building work, furniture, cabinet making etc. Jointly, i.e., Preparation of joints is one of the important operations in all wood works. It deals with making joints for a variety of applications viz, door frames, window frames, wardrobes, cupboards, stairs etc. In this chapter tools and works associated with joinery are presented. Carpentry Material Timber: Timber is the basic material used for any class of carpentry work. The term timber is applied to the wood obtained from; well-grown trees. The trees are cut, sawn into various sizes to suit the required purpose. Common Varieties of Indian Timber: Indian timbers most commonly used for various carpentry words are as follows: Babul, Deodar, Mahogany, Mango, Sal, Sissy and teak. Carpentry Tools: In carpentry large numbers of hand tools are used for processing the wood. Here, the details of tools that are being used in our workshop only are presented. Marking and Measuring Tools: Steel Rule: It is strip of steel with graduations on its edges and is used for measuring and setting out dimensions. Try Square: Try squares are used for marking and testing of right angles and for testing flatness of surface. Marking Gauge: It is a tool which has one projected marking pin and is used to mark accurate lines parallel to the true edge of a wooden piece. Holding Tools: Carpenters Vice: It is used for holding the work for planning, sawing and chiseling. The whole vice is made of iron and steel. It has two jaws one of which is fixed to the side of the table while the other is movable. C-Clamp: It is used for holding the work projecting above the top surface of the Bench. This is used to prevent the wood from moving forward when being planned. Bench Stop: It is simply a block of wood projecting above the top surface of the bench. This is used to prevent the wood from moving forward when being planed. 9

Cutting Tools: Wooden Jack Plane: It consists of wooden body in which blade is set at an angle of 45 degrees to the body or sole. The cutting blade used is made of high carbon steel and is very similar to a chisel. Jack Plane is a general purpose plane and is used to produce flat and smooth surfaces on wood. Hand or Cross-cut Saw: It is used to cut across the grains of the stock or thick wood. The teeth are set alternately to the right and left of the blade, and its purpose is to make the cut wider than the thickness of the blade. This allows the blade to move freely in the cut, without sticking. Her teeth are set at 2.5 mm apart. Tenon Saw or Back Saw : This saw is mostly used for cross cutting when a finer and more accurate finish is required. The teeth are shaped in the form of an equilateral triangle and generally have 13 teeth for 25 mm length. Firmer Chisel or Straight Edge Chisel : It is a general-purpose chisel and is used for cutting and shaping wood accurately. The width of the blade varies from 1.5 to 50 mm. Adze: Adze is a side axe used to chop extra wood quickly by carpenters. Adze with very long handle is used to plane long palm tree barks in standing position and also used as a hammer. Miscellaneous Tools: Pincer: It is made of steel with a hinged joint and is used for pulling out small nails from wood. Claw Hammer : It is a dual-purpose hammer. It has a hammer face, which is used to drive in nails and claw at the other end for pulling out mails from the wood. Wood Rasp File: It is a finishing tool used to make the wood surface smooth, remove the sharp edges and other interior surfaces. Sharp cutting teeth are provided on its surface. This file is exclusively used in woodwork.

Wood Joints : There are many kinds of joints used to connect wood stock. Each joint has a definite use and required marking, cutting and joining together. The strength of the joint depends on the amount of contact area. If a particular joint does not have much contact area, then it must be reinforced with nails, screws or dowels. Lap Joint: Also called halving joint. The aim of this joint is to secure the corners and intersections of the framing and at the same time in the same plane. They may be usefully employed in many types of framing where strength and appearance are of secondary consideration. 11

12

Mortise and Tenon Joint: This family of joints is a large one and does probably the wood worker use the commonest. It consists of a rectangular peg (tenon) fitting into a rectangular hole (mortise).

Briddle Joint: These are the reverse of mortise and tenon joints in form and are often called the open mortise tenon. These joints are used where the members are of square or nearsquare or near-square section and thus unsuitable for making a mortise and tenon joint of good proportions.

Instructions

1.

When you are using your thumb as a guide for cross cutting and ripping, raise it sufficiently high.

2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.

Planing should be done along grains only. Push the chisel away from you while chiseling. Always use marking gauge (or) a mortise gauge for drawing lines. Check the squareness of planned surfaces with try square. Use wooden mallets for driving chisel. Do not test sharpness of the edge of the cutting tools on your hand. Do not keep your hands In front of the sharp edged tools while they are in use. Only un wanted material should be removed.

13

14

Safety Precautions :

General : Make sure that your hands are not in front of sharp edged tools while you are using them.

Saws : Be careful when you are using your thumb as a guide in cross cutting.

Chisels : 1. 2. Never chisel towards any part of the body. Test the sharpness of the cutting edge on wood or paper, not on your hand.

HOUSE WIRING

Introduction:

Power is supplied to the domestic installations through, the phase and a neutral, forming a single phase A.C. 230V, two wire system. For industrial establishments, power is supplied through three-phase four-wire system to give 440V. Figure shows the power tapping for domestic and industrial purposes. The neutral is earthed at the sub-station of the supply. As a safe practice all single-phase devices such as switches, fuses etc., are connected to the live conductor. All electrical conductors and cables are colored coded and must be correctly connected up. Electrical wiring is defined as a system of electrical conductors, components and apparatus for conveying electrical power from the source to the point of use. The wiring system must be designed to provide a constant voltage to the load. Elements of House wiring: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Wires and wire sizes: A wire is defined as a bare or insulated conductor consisting of one or several strands. An insulated wire consists of a conductor (Silver/Copper/Aluminium) with insulating material made of vulcanized Indian Rubber (VIR) or Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC). Wire sizes are specified by the diameter of the wire, using a standard wire gauge (SWG), which also gives an idea of the current carrying capacity. The specification consists of both the number of strands and diameter of each wire in it. For Example, the specification 3/18 PVC consists of 3 strands of 18 gauge each. Various systems of wiring: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Cleat wiring C.T.S. / T.R.S.Wiring (Cap tyer sheathed/ Tough rubber sheathed wiring) Wooden casing & capping wiring Lead sheathed wiring Conduit wiring PVC casing & capping

TIN SMITHY
Introduction : Many engineering and house articles such as boxes, cans, funnels, ducts etc. are made from a flat sheet of metal. The process being known as tin smithy. For this the development of the article is first drawn on the sheet metal, then cut and folded, to form the required shape of the article. Allowance should be given in the drawing stage for folding and bending. This allowance depends upon the radius of the bend and thickness of the sheet metal. Sheet Metal Materials : A variety of metals are used in a sheet metal shop such as galvanized Iron, black, Iron, tin, Stainless Steel, copper and Aluminium. Hand Tools : The common hand tools used in sheet metal work are steel, try square, Wire gauge, Scriber, Ball peen hammer, Nylon Mallet, Snips Divider, Stakes, Cutting plier and Soldering Iron. Here, the details of tools that are being equipped by our workshop purpose only are presented. Wire Gauge: The thickness of sheet is referred in numbers known as standard wire gauge (SWG). The gaps in the circumference of the gauge are used to check the gauge number. Steel Rule : It is a strip of steel with graduations on its edges. It is used for measuring and setting out dimensions. Scriber : A scriber is a slender steel tool, used to scribe or mark lines on sheet metal. Snips : Hand shears or snips are used to cut sheet metal. Straight Snips : These are having straight blades and are used for cutting along straight lines and for trimming edges. Curved Snips : These are having curved blades and are used for cutting circles and irregular shapes. Divider : It consists of two pointed legs. The points are hardened and tempered to prevent wear. It is used for transferring the sizes and scribing curves or circles. Bench vice : It is generally used for holding and bending the work piece.

Hammers : Light weight hammers and mallets are used in sheet metal work. Ball Peen Hammer : It has a cylindrical, slightly curved face and a ball head. It is a general purpose hammer used mostly for riveting in sheet metal work. Cross Peen Hammer : It has a tapered peen end and is perpendicular to the handle. Because of this, it can reach awkward corners. Straight Peen Hammer : It has the peen end similar to the cross peen, but it is positioned parallel to the handle which can be used conveniently for certain operations of folding. Cutting Plier : Used for holding, cutting and bending works. Nylon Mallet : It is used for bending and folding work. It is light in weight, covers more area and do not damage the surface area. Stakes : Stakes are made of steel and forged in a variety of shapes and sizes. These are used as supporting tool and to form, seam, bend or rivet sheet metal objects. Anvil : Anvil provides the necessary support during hammering. It is also useful for operations such as bending. Its body is generally made of mild steel and a strip of high carbon steel about 20 mm thick is welded on top to provide hard face.

Sheet Metal Joints : Various types of joints are used in sheet metal work, to suit the varying requirement. Some commonly used sheet metal joints and folded edges are shown in the figure. These are self-secured joints, formed by joining together two pieces of GI sheet metal and using the metal itself to form the joint.

Sheet Metal Layout : The shapes of most articles made with sheet metal are in few geometrical forms. All these forms are made from flat sheet; therefore the first requirement is developing the lines, which forms the pattern. The development or stretch out of a job is called pattern and developing lines which forms a pattern is layout. It may be drawn on paper first and then transferred in the sheet or it may latyout directly on sheet metal. When a pattern is made repeatedly, it is generally made of metal and referred to as a template. 37

Insturctions :
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Draw the development of object to be prepared with true dimensions only. Use curved snip for trimming along inside curves. Always provide folding (Hem) for top edges of the object to avoid sharp edges and to stiffen the sheet. Ground properly the exposed metal parts of electrically heated soldering iron. For good soldering the metals to be joined must free from dirt, grease and oxide. Do not pull (or) peel the cut portion by hand while cutting with snip. Do not bend the sheet with hand, always use nylon mallet with proper support.

Safetry Precautions : 1. 2. 3. 4. Use hand leather gloves while handling heavy sheets. Avoid feeling the cut portion by hand while cutting with snip. Do not let sheet metal slip through the hands. Never carry tools in pockets.

WELDING
Introduction : Welding is a process of joining two similar or dissimilar metals by the application of heat with or without application of pressure and addition of filler material. The welding is extensively used in manufacturing industry, construction industry and maintenance work, replacing riveting and bolting, to a greater extent. The various welding processes are 1. Electric arc welding 2. Gas welding 3. Thermit welding 4. Resistance welding and 5. Friction welding However only electric arc welding is discussed here. In this process, the work pieces are melted along a common edge, to their melting point and then a filler metal is introduced to form the joint on solidification. The materials to be welded must be free from rust, scale oil or other impurities, so as to obtain a sound weld. Arc Welding: In arc welding, the heat required for joining the metals is obtained from an electric arc. Transformers or motor generator sets are used as arc welding machines. These machines supply high electric currents at low voltages and an electrode is used to produce the necessary arc. The coated electrode serves as the filler rod and arc melts the surfaces so that the metals to be joined are actually fused together. In addition to the welding machine, the following accessories and tools are needed for carrying out the welding work. The given figure shows the principle of Arc Welding using a transformer. Welding Cables: Two welding cables are required, one from the machine to the electrode holder and the other, from the machine to the ground clamp. Cables are specified by their current carrying capacity say 300A, 400A etc. Electrodes: Filler rods used in arc welding are called electrodes. These are made of metallic wire called core wire, having approximately the same composition as the metal to be welded. These are coated uniformly with a protective coating called flux. While fluxing an electrode about 20mm of length is left bare at one end for holding it with the electrode holder. It helps in transmitting full current from electrode holder to the front end of the electrode coating. Flux acts as an insulator of electricity and protects from oxidization.

Electrode Holder: The electrode holder is connected to the end of the welding cable and holds the electrode. It should be light, strong, easy to handle and should not become hot while in operation. The jaws of the holder are insulated, offering protection from electric shock. Ground Clamp: It is connected to the end of the ground cable and is clamped to the work or welding table to complete the electric circuit. It should be strong and durable and give a low resistance connection. Bench Vice: It is commonly used for holding the work piece. It has to harden Steel jaws having serrations to ensure good grip. When the vice handle is turned to a clockwise direction, the sliding jaw forces the work piece against the fixed jaw and is fixed on the working table. Hack Saw: The hacksaw is used for sawing all metals except hardened steel. A hand hacksaw consists of frame, handle blade, prongs, tightening screw and nut. Steel Rule: The steel rule is one of the most useful tools in the workshop for taking linear measurements of blanks and articles to an accuracy of 1.0 to 0.5mm Scriber: A scriber is a slender steel tool, used to scribe or mark lines on metal work pieces. Try Square: Try square is used for making and testing angles of 90 degrees and is used for checking the squareness of many types of small works, when extreme accuracy is not required. Flat File: Flat file is used to remove small amount of material from the surface of the metal part. It is also used to remove sharp edges from the metal pieces. Wire Brush or File Card: A wire brush is used for cleaning and preparing the work piece before and after the welding. Welding Table: It is made of steel plate and pipes. It is used for positioning the parts to be welded properly. Welding Screen: When people are around where welding is done, they may be protected from the rays of the arc by means of a protected screen. Face Shield:A face shield is used to protect the eyes and face from the rays of the arc and from spatter or flying particles of hot metal. It is available in hand or helmet type. The hand type is preferred to use and they are made of light weight, non reflecting fiber fitted with dark glass. Hand Gloves: Hand gloves are used for protecting the arms while welding form sparks and from current. Flat Tong: A flat tong is used for holding works of rectangular shape during welding and after welding. 47

Chipping Hammer: It is made of tool steel and is used for removing slag formation on welds. One end of the head is sharpened like a cold chisel and the other end to a blunt, round point. Ball Peen Hammer: Ball peen hammers are used to stride a job or a tool. It consists of hour parts namely peen, head, eye and face. Ball Peen hammer is chiefly used for chipping and riveting. Welded Joints: The relative positions of the two pieces being joined determine the type of joint. The following joints are commonly used in fusion welding. The Butt Joint : It is used to join the ends or edges of two plates or surfaces located approximately in the same plane with each other. The Lap Joint : It is used to join two overlapping plates so that the edge of each plate is welded to the surface of the other. The T-Joint : It is used to weld two plates or sections whose surfaces are at approximately right angles to each other. The Corner Joint : It is used to join the edges of two sheets or plates whose surfaces are at the angle of approximately 90 deg to each other. It is common in the construction of boxes, tanks, frames etc. Preparation of Work: Before welding, the work pieces must be thoroughly cleaned of rust, scale or other foreign material. Thin pieces of metal are generally welded without beveling the edges. However, thick work pieces should be beveled to ensure adequate penetration and fusion of all parts of the weld. But, in either case, the parts to be welded must separated slightly to allow better penetration of the weld. Different edge preparation is particularly used in fusion welding process for welding butt joints. These are: square Single-V, Double-V, Single-U and Double-U. The preparation of edges depends upon the thickness of metal being welded. Instructions : General: 1. Always weld in a well-ventilated place. Fumes given off from welding are unpleasant and in some cases may be injurious, particularly from galvanized or zinc coated parts.

2. Do not weld around combustible or inflammable materials, where sparks may cause a fire. 3. Never weld, containers, which have been used for storing gasoline, oil or similar materials, without first having them thoroughly cleaned. Arc welding: 1. Check the welding machine to make sure that it is properly grounded and that all leads are properly insulated. 2. Never look at the arc with a naked eye. The arc can burn your eyes severely. Always use a face shield while welding. 3. Prevent welding cables from coming in contact with hot metal, water oil or grease. Avoid dragging the cables around sharp corners. 4. Ensure proper insulation of the cables and check for openings. 5. Always wear the safety hand gloves, apron and leather shoes. 6. Always turn-off the machine when leaving the work 7. Apply eye drops after welding is over for the day to relieve the strain on the eyes. 8. While welding, stand on dry footing and keep the body insulated from the electrode, any bare parts of the electrode holder and the work

Safety Precautions: 1. Use welding screen, leather apron and leather hand gloves while welding 2. Use flat tong and hand gloves for handling of work pieces during and after welding.
