Section 2 Design: Manufacturing and Sustainability.

Types of Materials

Material Properties

(Students) should consider the sustainability and disposability of the resources in the final product (STL, Std. 11, p. 123).

Refine a design by using prototypes

and modeling to ensure quality,

efficiency, and productivity of the

final product (STL, Std. 11 O, p. 124)

Materials have different qualities

and may be classified as natural,

synthetic, or mixed (STL, Std. 19 M, p. 189).

Reprocess materials by recycling and reuse throughout product life cycle to optimize waste reduction (MSSC, p.20).
