classes into application where they are required to design, fabricate and test the prototype

measurement devices. Each group has to design a measuring device which can measure mass

or force up to a certain limit using elastic properties of material. The project group member

is similiar to lab group member.

Report.

Each group is required to write a report consist of the following points:

Must consist, but not restricted to the following point:

1. Description of the system. 2. Literature review 3. Theoritical background. 4. Fabrication methods 5. User manual/Procedure 6. Problem uncounter and solutions 7. Take a least 10 measurements from the measurement device , calculate the mean,

variance and standard deviation of the data.Calculate the uncertainty of the measured

values.

8. Discussion 9. Conclusion 10. References 11. Add any necessary drawing or sketches and photos.

The suggested length of the report is around 20 pages including figures, tables and

reference plus appendix. The report should be understood by ordinary reader than

experts only.

LABORATORY & REPORTS: AN OVERVIEW

All experiments in the Engineering Measurements Laboratory require either a laboratory report

(Logbook) or a formal laboratory report for selective experiments, unless it is stated otherwise. The

reports should be simple and clearly written. Laboratory reports (logbook) are due after all of the

experiments are performed, unless it is stated otherwise. Final reports should be submitted a week after

the experiments day, unless it is stated otherwise. Any late submission will not be entertained, unless there are concrete and unavoidable reasons.

The laboratory reports (log book) should be in hand writing and any graphs needed should be drawn in

either an appropriate graph paper or drawn using EXCEL, whichever suitable.

However, for final formal laboratory reports, it should be computer-generated and any graphs should

be drawn using EXCEL.

The formal laboratory reports should be submitted into pigeon hole in front the lab or to the instructor

directly.

The pre-lab questions in this lab manual should be answered and submitted during the first 5 minutes

before you start your experiment.

Attendance:

Please sign attendant sheet upon arrived to lab. Mark will be given depending on time of arrival. Student

who comes 15 minutes after the lab begins will get 0 mark. Absence due to illness should be proven by

medical certificates (MC).

Prelab:

Turn in prelab at the beginning of each lab. No prelab will be accepted 15 minutes after the lab begins.

Prelab will not be return to the students until the end of semester. The purpose of prelab is to encourage

student to read through lab manual before coming to the lab.

Logbook:

Students are required to prepare a logbook for the purpose of recording the data and discussing the

results from each informal experiment. The logbook MUST be presented to the instructor and signed at

the end of each laboratory session. Marks will be given for each experiment done in the session. Collect

the lab front page cover from the lab technician if you are assigned to write a formal report.


16/18

Laboratory Assessment:

Students are required to prepare a logbook for the purpose of recording the data and discussing the

results from each experiment. The logbook MUST be presented to the instructor and signed at the end

of each laboratory session. Marks will be given for each experiment done in the session. Collect the lab

front page cover from the lab technician if you are assigned to write a formal report.

Formal Reports:

There are a total of 2 formal reports that need to be completed, individual and group report. The formal

reports should be written for the following experiments.

Experiment 2: Determining fluid (air) velocity and Discharge Coefficient. Group Report -5%

Experiment 1: Strain Gauge.- Individual Report 7%

Duration of one-week period is provided for formal report and should be submitted during the next lab.

Report should be place in the pig hole in front of the lab or directly to the instructor. Grade will be

deducted from the late report as follows (except with valid reason) : Late submission penalty : Late 1

day : 90%, Late 2 days : 80 %, Late 3 days : 70%, More than 3 days: 50% of earned mark.

Plagiarism is not acceptable. It will result in half of the total grade being deducted or zero grade for

the lab report or for the whole course. In addition, poor report writing will result in meeting the

instructor for improvement in future report writing. Please use the font of Arial or Times New Roman

only.

Before submitting your hardcopy formal report to the instructor, you need to upload your

softcopy report into TURNITIN program, to check for similarity (report with similarity higher

than 50% will not be accepted). You will be given ID and password to upload the softcopy of your

formal report by the respective instructors. Attached the TURNITIN report with your lab report.

Experiment Group:

Students will perform experiment in-group. Each experiment group consists of 3-5 students.

Group number consists of Section number, follows with number appointed. For example, the first

group from section 1A will have group number of 1A1; the second group in the same section will be

designated as 1A2 and so on.

Report must be submitted using front page supplied.
