   Correction To Mass On Multiple Spring Supports

                                                             Mass On Multiple Spring Supports

    

   Correction

   The previous post, #48 titled Mass on Multiple Spring Supports had several typographical errors. Strangely, they are all in the brief introductory example regarding the loads on the four legs of a table, at least these are the only ones that have been called to my attention. As many of you know, I am older than dirt, and my typing skill is degrading; this leads to errors at times. I apologize for misleading anyone. Fortunately, one reader notified me that there were errors.

   Smart hello to every one...

   As off late I got busy in some personal projects, this year we are back and look forward to make the community live, quick, vibrant and responsive.

   I recommend few points to give it a great push...

   • Make sure to login every day on the website mechanical-engg.com
   • Time to showcase your skills, start your blog, give response to others, appreciate the starters.
   • Do not put ads or promote others links, website.... we are making it a clean community..once banned you will miss the long term opportunities.
   • Ask researchers, professors, to write their learning and teachings 
   • We will be starting  quizzes very soon...we will even invite professors who are willing to make some interesting/challenging quiz for us 
   • We look forward to start job section soon - will need help from community members to give us information of various openings in your company.. help us to reach your HR.
   • Help us to reach and connect each and every single mechanical engineering professional. I am listing down the following ways 
   • Facebook - Connect with me directly on this profile  https://www.facebook.com/mechanical.engineering.website and add all your friends in the following group https://www.facebook.com/groups/4mechanicalengineers/

   1. Whatsapp - we will be forming whatsaopp groups.. 
   2. https://mechanical-engg.com/whatsapp-group/  These groups will be just to send you the updates on phone .. do not join more then one group as same information will be shared on each group...

   The True Value of Certification

    

   The link below is an article about the value of certification for manufacturers. It is a heavy sell for certification. In my opinion it misses the most basic benefit of certification, which is the path to getting certified.

   http://www.machinedesign.com/industrial-automation/why-do-manufacturing-certifications-matter?NL=MACD-001&Issue=MACD-001_20170523_MACD-001_398&sfvc4enews=42&cl=article_1_b&utm_rid=CPG05000005789847&utm_campaign=11223&utm_medium=email&elq2=ac7bbf3354354d12ba54569ff985ae31

   When people ask me about ISO 9000, the simple explanation I give, “the process of certification requires you to write down your process and demonstrate that you follow the process.” The certification system does not dictate your process.

   The mere action of writing down and maintaining the written procedure is the real value. In one of my blogs “Dumbest Guy in the Room", written in two parts, http://www.jagengrg.com/blog, I touch on the value of the written word and the perils of oral communication. 

   Writing it down allows everyone to see exactly what the author thinks is being done or should be done. Others can read the written word and identify ambiguous sections, missing information, or errors that can easily be overlooked using oral communication.

   When everyone is carrying the information in their head’s via oral direction I can guarantee there is more than one interpretation. I would venture to say you will have as many interpretations as you have people involved.

   When written procedures do exist but do not come under the scrutiny of a certification body, it is very common for procedures to become stale, be incomplete, rely on undocumented knowledge, and for steps in the process to be missed from time to time.

   The subject article closes with a realistic assessment of the value for certification. “Is having a certification the end-all-be-all of manufacturing? No. However….”

   You reach the "however" stage, not my hanging the certification on the wall, but the process for obtaining it.
