Week #9

We had our presentation date pushed to next week, so it was sort-of a relief for the whole team. Of course, after watching the teams before us present, we were able to pin-point their weaknesses and continue working on our presentation. Some members on our team were still confused with some calculations, so we had a meeting with Dr. Furman and Eric 2 days prior to our presentation day, on Wednesday.

Dr. Furman asked me to do more calculations which compared different types of column supports with the columns that we're going to use. We were using a hollow cross type of column, while I compared those calculations with a hollow cylinder and hollow square column.

These calculations and comparisons were timely, especially with a vibrations exam that happened to be on the same day as our presentation; however, I was able to complete what Dr. Furman asked.
