About this Unit
From 2016 this unit will be replaced by 301095 Sustainable Design 1: Materials and Technology. In this unit we explore materials from a design perspective - their properties, qualities, typical applications, their cost and the environmental impact associated with their extraction, use and disposal. We also look at how they can be formed using contemporary and emerging processing techniques - from sand casting to rapid prototyping. Lectures are supplemented with live demonstrations of materials processing techniques and students undertake materials research and a design for manufacture project.
