Applied Machine Shop Math 1 (MTTC 1015)

Total Credits: 2
Lecture Credits: 2

Description: Both machine-shop math and linear-measurement theory are presented in this course. Common fractions and mixed numbers are added, subtracted, multiplied and divided. Decimal fractions are also studied in a similar manner. Powers and roots of numbers are used to compute areas and volumes of geometric figures. English and metric units of measurement are studied as they are applied to steel rules, vernier calipers, micrometers, and gage blocks. Standard machine-shop calculations involving speeds, feeds, thread and taper calculations are computed.

Topical Outline:
1. Common fraction through algebra calculation
2. Machine shop related basic math principles

Learning Outcomes:
1. Acquire basic machine shop math skills
2. Demonstrate understanding of basic shop math principles

Prerequisites:  Placement into MATH 0070
Co-requisites:  MTTC 1100, MTTC 1105, and MTTC 1110
