10/5/16

This week, we were supposed to present our group presentations, but there was insufficient time. We will present on 10/5 and it'll be so great and deserving of an A+.

Last week, my task was to design a rough sketch of what the new guideway would look like. Here are some screenshots of my designs:

We compiled our designs and decided to go with Claude's design with some renditions.

This week we will be working on designing new structure beams. It'll feature a design similar to the Solomon's knot, with interlocking steel pieces filled with concrete. We've been coordinating with a team located in South Africa regarding a design still in the works. We'll compare with Bengt's design and decide which we like better. Furthermore, we will work on a rapid prototype made out of cardstock or some similar material, using a laser cutter.
