Chapter 7.9, Problem 1P

A set of measurable parameters with values specific to the product that together define the product is called the specifications. These parameters are either physical properties of the product or the capabilities of the product. Log on to the Internet to extract the specifications of a product and to identify these two classes of specifications.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

The specifications of a product and to identify the two classes of specifications

Explanation of Solution

Product Specification is a document which provides critical defining information about a product and it includes the identification of the manufacturer. The designer of the product should take care that the product meets its specifications. Product specification contains a product identification and detailed description of the product.

Physical properties of the product includes the study of matter

Example-absorption, area, brittleness of material, etc.

Product capability is the output of the product which is needed by the customer.

The two classes of specification are as follows.

1. Prescriptive specification-This type of specification deals with the clauses for the methods of construction. Most of the projects are a part of prescriptive specification.

2. Performance specification -This type of specification deals with the product performance and for how long the product is good to go. It covers all the performance characteristics of the product.

Product specification sheet is as follows.

Product-PU001MONO4kg

GTIN-6754231541

Gross width-100mm

Gross depth-250mm

Net weight-4kg

Type of Material-Rock metal
