ASBE Design Challenges

Goal: ASBE's goal is to provide real world design challenges to students.  In the links below are descriptions of the various design problems.  With each design project a series of files are provided to the student for download.  These files provide a starting point to begin any project.  Layout information is also provided within each design project.

NOTE: ALL PARTS ARE IN METRIC (mm)
          Creo Reference Video: Setting/Changing Units
          OnShape Reference Tutorial: Setting Default Units per Workspace

Title Block: Use attached Title Block form for Layout:  ASBE Title Block 
   NOTE: Title Block should be removed from the zip folder and placed with the design files.  Paper Size: D Size
