Design Brief: A Tool for Enhancing Project Communication
A Bigger Goal:
- To do the right thing in a right way
- to diminish the differences between groups by boosting the communication
- Put into writing what you are planning to do in your project
- Include what you learn
What is a Design Brief:
- A document
- An insurance between parties, may be changed later by the situations
- A basic description on what is expected. Both parties know approximately what they're entering into and what are they committing to
Content of the Brief:
- There's more than one correct form
- Often Design Brief and Project plan are discerned as a same thing
- Today we're talking about communicational briefs
- Project plan can be created upon this
Design Brief consists of:
- Project Background
- Project type: the unknown in the equation
- Directing resources
- Results
- General facts
- Tecnhnical info, details
- Precise Project info
- Phases
- Research Areas
Why a Design Brief:
- The personnel might change
- Avoid waste of time and resources, if possible
- Starting is easier and faster
- Recognize biggest challenges in advance
- Not rely on intuition and time running o communication between people
- No surprises with prioritization, expectations and results in project work
- Things might change, it's important to know what existed in the beginning, to understand and reflect the changes
- It might save your project, it might be unnecessary; you cannot know in advance!
- It's better to ask in the beginning
THE DESIGN BRIEF IS MEANT TO BE ALIVE!
it should be always open to changes (a working document)

Dimensioning Techniques
Highlights of the slideshow:
- Dimensioning includes measurements, notes, and symbols.
- Placements of Dimensions: can be placed on the inside or outside of the extension lines.
- Dimensioning Diameters: have to put the diameter symbol for full circle.
- Dimensioning Radii: do not need their centers located, and are for incomplete circles-arcs, rounds, fillets exc.
- Decimal Inch (Imperial)
- Millimetre (Metric)
Some rules:
- Each Dimension should be clearly shown and stated so that it can be
- Dimensions should not be duplicated or given on a drawing two different ways.
- Dimensions should not be placed in the view where the best shape and true form are shown.
- Avoid long extension and leader lines.
- Place a dimension between views, especially if it applies to both views and will improve clarity
- Do not assume that a paert is symmetrical. Dimension both sides of a symmetrically shaped part or use the centerline symbol or note to avoid confusion.
- Spacing between dimensions should be consistent within a drawing.
- Line up dimensions horizontally and vertically where possible.
- Avoid crossing dimension lines or leaders where possible.
- Make full use or notes, abbreviations, and symbols to show how many times a dimension applies. For example, use 2x in a note to designate that a detail specified in the note exists in two places on the drawing. Dimension separately if the times (x) designation would be confusing.
