Industrial Hand and Power Tools, Online Textbook

Author: Jim Jozwiak

Industrial Hand and Power Tools is a foundational, comprehensive text designed to help students identify, select, properly use, and care for the common hand and power tools used in industrial and manufacturing careers. The content focuses on tool care, storage, safety, tool physics, measurement, basic hand tools, fasteners, and power tools. Color photos and illustrations are featured throughout the text to make it easy for students to clearly identify the right tool for the job, and step-by-step instructions describe the proper use of many tools. Cautions and Safety Tips provide a strong emphasis on safety to protect workers and equipment, and Pro Tips offer advice and guidance that is especially applicable for on-the-job situations. The Hands-On Activities actively engage students as they put tools into practice in a classroom workshop and answer questions to reflect on their results. This text also features end-of-chapter assessments, tool identification tests, and activities. Competency test tables are provided for these activities so that students have a clear understanding of competency expectations and instructors have ready-made grading criteria.
