Abstract :
This study is to develop a dual-purposed
drafting table (DPDT) to do dual drafting tasks in the
same place on one table without transferring it to
another room to minimize time, space, and cost. The
research was conducted at Surigao State College of
Technology (SSCT), Surigao City, and there were two
respondent groups involved in the study, 11 technology
instructors and 40 students of SSCT. A descriptive
method was used in the study where both respondent
groups examined the effectiveness in terms of
functionality that includes ease of operation, provision of
comfort and convenience and user-friendly aesthetic
values; efficiency in terms of health safety protocol; and
energy saving. The study's findings have shown that the
DPDT has a great help in maximizing space and time to
do dual drafting tasks. The functionality of DPDT, which
includes ease of operation, provision of comfort and
convenience and user-friendly, aesthetic values,
efficiency in terms of health safety protocol, and energy
saving of the model, was described as Very Effective and
highly accepted. Thus, it is recommended that the study
be applied in the DPDT in drawing and architectural
drafting shops and computer laboratories. The
administration is requested to extend their support to the
project for production, application, dissemination, and
application for patenting and publication.
