Task 1. (Word count: 800-1000 words) 1. Select one project of your interest – something that you would like to visit or discover how it works and prepare a report. Why is this project interesting from an operations management perspective? - How long it took to design it‚ plan it and build it? - How many people were involved in its design‚ planning and operationalization? - How much material and what types of material were needed? - What were the main phases of the project? - What were

Cantilever Designed Lab Investigating the relationship between the position of the weight on the cantilever and the amount of deflection Introduction How does the position of the weight on the cantilever affect the amount of deflection? The independent variable of this experiment will be the location of the weight l on the cantilever because it will change throughout the experiment. The dependent variable will be the amount of deflection d because it will depend on the position of the

Stress Analysis of the Front Suspension of a Formula Student Racing Car Using Solidworks Simulation Tools Abstract— the paper covers a simulation of the front suspension system which obtained a better way to analyze the problem. With the help of theoretical study‚ the simulation was conducted by using composite elements mesh for the system‚ which leads to a more accurate solution comparing to the single solid mesh model. Keywords—Suspension‚ Stress‚ Solidworks‚ Simulation‚ FEM. Introduction

on a scale such as that of Fallingwater. Concrete might be a less likely choice‚ and probably would not be considered by many as a building material used for aesthetic purposes. However‚ Frank Lloyd Wright used concrete not only to reinforce the cantilevers he used so prominently in his design of Fallingwater but to add beauty to the home as well. Concrete became part of the aesthetic of the building as much as the sandstone he used so beautifully in his design. To ensure the stability of the structure

My favorite architectural object A brilliant architectural marvel that unites past‚ present and future… work which I personally admire is definitely Fallingwater house‚ constructed and designed by the famous American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Fallingwater house is one of the most remarkable masterpieces in the history of contemporary architecture. With this house F .L. Wright reached the top in his architectural work‚ using very unique and inventive way to the integration of form in

Laboratory Three: Parallam Beam Deflection Lab Group - 1st Mondays‚ Late: Jesse Bertrand‚ Ryan Carmichael‚ Anne Krikorian‚ Noah Marks‚ Ann Murray Report by Ryan Carmichael and Anne Krikorian E6 Laboratory Report – Submitted 12 May 2008 Department of Engineering‚ Swarthmore College Abstract: In this laboratory‚ we determined six different values for the Elastic Flexural Modulus of a 4-by10 (100” x 3.50” x 9.46”) Parallam wood-composite test beam. To accomplish this‚ we loaded the beam at 1/3

throughout this semester of Engineering Statics. It has been necessary to research designs‚ types of wood‚ and types of adhesive that will create a final result that is consistent with the desired result. Literature Review: The design concept behind a cantilever truss consists of a series of triangles joined together. The strength of these individual triangles‚ when combined‚ creates a very strong final result. Triangles are a very important part of many types of construction as they are the “only geometric

Independent Assessment Physics Lab (SL): Cantilever Flexion Cherno Okafor Mr. Ebrahimi SPH4U7 October 21st‚ 2012 Introduction Purpose: The purpose of this Physics Lab is to investigate what factors determine the amount of flexion of the cantilever. Hence‚ the objective is to establish a relationship between the length of a cantilever‚ which may give some insight into the physics of cantilevers. Hypothesis: If one increases the length of a cantilever‚ one would expect there to be an increase

Have you ever crossed a bridge when driving around your city and thought about how it was constructed or how long did it take to be built or is this bridge really safe and will it ever fall down. Well‚ I certainly have and I know that I don’t want for a bridge to fall down whenever I am driving or walking across one. It was 6:05 pm‚ the rush hour in Minneapolis‚ Minnesota and the unimaginable at the I-35W bridge occurred. On August 1‚ 2007 the 1‚907 foot long bridge collapsed leaving dozens of cars

Dawson‚ Joey Humanities 101 October 2‚ 2012 Page 1 Fallingwater by Frank Lloyd Wright I have chosen the Fallingwater House to write about in this assignment. The house was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and built between 1936 and 1939. It is located in Bear Run‚ Pennsylvania. The house is built on top of a waterfall on the side of a hill. Frank Lloyd Wright designed the house to appear as if it wasn’t even standing on solid ground. Descriptive criticism: Every piece of artwork ever done has
