The course of study for BMED incorporates aspects of architectural drawings of buildings as well as mechanical drawings for the development and communication of design ideas and concepts. As a form of graphical communication, the course provides the student with the opportunity of visualising and comprehending information presented verbally, graphically and mathematically. A student who completes this syllabus would be experienced in the use of the latest developments of Computer Aided Drawing (CAD). In addition, the student would become dexterous in the application of the British Standard (BS8888), ISO Standards, Caribbean Uniform Building Codes (CUBiC) and other local codes to building and engineering drawings. By pursuing this course, students will develop twenty-first century skills such as creativity, decision-making, problem- solving, critical thinking and collaboration. This syllabus is designed to provide in depth knowledge, skills and competencies that are required for further studies and for the world of work. The Building and Mechanical Engineering Drawing Syllabus consists of two Units of 150 hours, each comprising three Modules of 50 hours each. Each Module is compulsory. Unit 1: Building and Mechanical Engineering Drawing Module 1 - Geometry 1 Module 2 - Geometry 2 Options Module 3A - Engineering Drawing OR Module 3B - Building Drawing Unit 2: Building and Engineering Design Option A: Mechanical Engineering Drawing and Design Module 1 - Mechanics of Machines Module 2 - Engineering Materials and Processes Module 3 - Management and Design Option B: Building Drawing and Design Module 1 - Structural Drawings Module 2 - Building Materials and Processes Module 3 - Building Design Elements LAB Effective for examinations from May-June ………… CARIBBEAN EXAMINATIONS COUNCIL Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examinat ion CAPE® BUILDING AND MECHANICAL ENGINEERIN G DRAWING SYLLABUS Effective for examinations from May–June 2016 CXC A22/U2/15 Published in Jamaica by the Caribbean Examinations Council All rights reserved.

CXC 22/U2/15 Introduction T he Caribbean Advanced Proficiency Examination (CAPE) is designed to provide certification of the academic, vocational and technical achievement of students in the Caribbean who, having completed a minimum of five years of secondary education, wish to further their studies. The examinations address the skills and knowledge acquired by students under a flexible and articulated system where subjects are organised in 1-Unit or 2-Unit courses with each Unit containing three Modules. Subjects examined under CAPE may be studied concurrently or singly. The Caribbean Examinations Council offers three types of certification at the CAPE level. The first is the award of a certificate showing each CAPE Unit completed. The second is the CAPE Diploma, awarded to candidates who have satisfactorily completed at least six Units, including Caribbean Studies. The third is the CXC Associate Degree, awarded for the satisfactory completion of a prescribed cluster of eight CAPE Units including Caribbean Studies, Communication Studies and Integrated Mathematics. Integrated Mathematics is not a requirement for the CXC Associate Degree in Mathematics. The complete list of Associate Degrees may be found in the CXC Associate Degree Handbook. For the CAPE Diploma and the CXC Associate Degree, candidates must complete the cluster of required Units within a maximum period of five years. To be eligible for a CXC Associate Degree, the educational institution presenting the candidates for the award, must select the Associate Degree of choice at the time of registration at the sitting (year) the candidates are expected to qualify for the award. Candidates will not be awarded an Associate Degree for which they were not registered. CXC 22/U2/15 i
