On the shop floor, skilled workers who perform
specialized tasks must be competent in more than simple
arithmetic. For instance, setup and layout requires
workers to solve math problems that relate to many types
of part features. Applied Shop Math gives workers a
practical foundation in algebra, plane geometry and
trigonometry. It allows them to solve equations and
formulas, and calculate dimensions of the geometric
shapes that represent most part features - triangles,
quadrilaterals, circles and hexagons.The program is
designed for either self-study or instructor-led
sessions. It focuses on typical shop floor applications,
so workers can quickly use their new skills on the job.
