EXPERIMENT TITLE
ABSTRACT (10 points)
Place your abstract here. This is a stand-alone summary of the report. Abstracts are commonly encountered in
electronic library databases. The primary function of the abstract is to allow the reader to obtain an
understanding of what the report is about and what was accomplished.
*Tips
The abstract should answer the following questions:
 What is the objective of the lab?
 Why is this objective significant?
 What type of work is performed to achieve the objective?
 What are the major results of the work achieved?
 What conclusions can be made from these results?
The abstract should never be more than one page long and should not include any references to the body of the
report.
Tips: From this abstract, the reader can make an informed decision as to whether or not the report applies to
what they are researching or what they are interested in. The reader can then decide whether or not to devote
more time to reading the full report.

OBJECTIVES (5 points)
Place your objective here. State the objective clearly in a complete sentence. A few explanatory sentences
may be included, if needed.
The objective should answer the question: What is the lab objective designed to determine?

INTRODUCTION (10 points)


The introduction must provide explanation of the engineering problem. It explains the significance as well as
any significant background information of the problem. Place a theoretical background of the experiment. The
theory should explain all equations, theoretical principles, and assumptions that are used in the experiment and
the analysis. The primary purpose of the theory section is to show how the raw data is manipulated to become
results. Relevant equations used are to be presented and described to illustrate their basis and origin. This
section should include block diagrams where needed. Define all variables used in the equations. Write

equations using an equation writer in a word processor. Ensure that your work does resemble the work
described in the report sheet.

EXPERIMENTAL METHODS (10 points)


The experimental methods should give a detailed description in your own words of how YOU accomplished
the experimentation. This should include equipment used in the experiment as well as how it was used. Use
sketches, diagrams or photos, to describe the experimental set-up. Label the main components. Provide
dimensions and material of test cases where applicable.

Tips: Any information copied directly or verbatim from Lab manuals or other references should be stated
within quotes and referred, otherwise, it is considered plagiarism.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION (50 points)


Place your results and discussion here. This is the most important part of the report. Summarize your results
in the introductory sentence. Relate your results to your objective. Present the results in the easiest way for
your reader to understand: graphs, tables, figures, etc. Spreadsheets are often an ideal tool for organizing the
data, analyzing the data, and generating graphs and tables. All tables and figures should be accompanied by
comments or discussions in the text of report; use a numbering system for identification of each one. All
figures and tables must have numbers and captions. While the table captions should be placed over the table,
figure captions should be placed below the figure, examples are shown below.
Explain the results of the experiment, comment on the results you obtained, compare obtained results with
expected results, give probable reasons for discrepancies from the correct results, answer any questions
outlined in the instructions and solve any problems that may have been presented. Tell why things happened,
not only that they did happen. Implementation errors should be discussed here.

CONCLUSIONS (10 points)


Place your conclusions here. State your discoveries, judgments and opinions from the results of this
experiment. Make recommendations for further study. Suggest ways to improve the results of this
experiment.
Tips: Consider that in the real world, after graduation, upper management is very likely to read only your
RESULTS and CONCLUSIONS. Beyond that, the chances are that only your figures will be skimmed. Make
the most of these sections.

REFERENCES (5 points)
Place your references here. Itemize any books, publication or websites that you referenced in compiling your
report. Provide authors, publisher, date of publication, page number, etc.
Tips: Follow the standard format for typing a reference:
