ENGINEERING AND ETHICS – WEEK #1 ASSIGNMENT ANSI VS. ASME

Abstract
Upon examining the code of ethics from two prominent organizations, namely the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers
(ASME), it became evident that these two codes sparked some curiosity. Both ANSI and ASME
share a common objective of ensuring the safety of individuals through the provision of
guidelines and standardized information. Nevertheless, ANSI assumes a broader role,
encompassing various sectors and acting as an overarching authority for safety, whereas ASME's
responsibilities are more specific and contribute to the comprehensive framework established by
ANSI. The examination of their respective roles in defining suitable ethical conduct is explored
in greater detail.

Engineering And Ethics – Week #1 Assignment ANSI vs. ASME
Two codes of ethics underwent a thorough examination, leading to the discovery of three
similarities, three differences, notable phrases for each, and the distinct roles played by standards
in identifying suitable ethical conduct. The safety realm encompasses numerous acronyms,
which can occasionally create confusion regarding their meanings. Among these uncertainties
lies the question of whether ANSI and ASME are synonymous and whether they address
identical topics. At first glance, the American National Standards Institution (ANSI) and the
American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) may appear similar, but upon closer
inspection, it becomes evident that each organization possesses unique attributes that set them
apart.
The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI) are two private, non-profit organizations that share common goals.
Together, they work towards advancing technical knowledge and creating consistent voluntary
standards and codes for engineering practices. By developing engineering standards, both
organizations aim to ensure that engineers follow the same guidelines, resulting in quality and
consistency across all mechanical devices and products. (Yadav, 2023).
Recognizing the disparities is of utmost importance, despite the similarities in
measurements. The primary objective of ANSI is to enhance the market standing of the United
States, whereas ASME concentrates on resolving mechanical engineering difficulties and safety
concerns. ANSI has recognized around 9,500 standards, whereas ASME has formulated 600
standards and codes for diverse mechanical devices. ANSI does not produce standards on its
own, but it authorizes organizations like ASME to do so. It is worth noting that ASME was
founded many years prior to the establishment of ANSI. (Admin, 2021).

Question 2
You are a biomedical engineer working for a small orthopaedic firm that fabricates rectangular shaped fracture
fixation plates from titanium alloy (model = "Ti Fix-It") materials. A recent clinical report documents some problems with the plates
implanted into fractured limbs. Specifically, some plates have become permanently bent while patients are in rehab and doing partial
weight bearing activities.
Your boss asks you to review the technical report that was generated by the previous test engineer (whose job you now have!) and used to
verify the design. The brief report states the following... "Ti Fix-It plates were manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V (grade 5) and machined into
solid 150 mm long beams with a 4 mm thick and 15 mm wide cross section. Each Ti Fix-It plate was loaded in equilibrium in a 4-point bending
test (set-up configuration is provided in drawing below), with an applied load of 1000N. The maximum stress in this set-up was less than the
yield stress for the…

A Team of Engineers asked for an internal combustion engine to use it in a designed car. Your role is to describe the operation sequence of different types of available engines, explain their mechanical efficiency, and deliver a detailed technical report to show your approach in solving and discussing the following tasks and issues.
You must follow the following steps to help the team:
STEP 1
Describe the operational sequence of four-stroke spark ignition and four-stroke compression ignition engines with the aid of sketches by constructing simple sketch representing the operation and plotting the P-V diagrams for each process during the cycle to show the following:
The input and output heat and net output work
The air-fuel mixture intake and exhaust gasses
The spark plug when it is in the active mode

Case Study – The New Engineer
Jeff was just hired by GSI, Inc. to be their Environmental and Safety Coordinator. This is Jeff's first position after completing his engineering degree. He had taken a course in safety engineering as part of his studies and felt confident that he could handle the job.
Management at GSI, Inc. has assured him that they are committed to maintaining a safe workplace. They have never had an individual dedicated to this task full-time. They will implement his recommendations if he can justify them.
As Jeff begins to get familiar with the operations, he spends considerable time on the production floor. He notices workers clean their tools before break with a liquid from an unmarked 55-gallon drum. They also use this liquid to clean residue from their skin. They use paper towels to dry their tools and hands, throw these towels in the trash, and head to the break room for a snack and/or smoke.
