Today, we meet for our final day of instruction of this semester.
With the fabricated wooden pieces ready, we needed to create footings so that the structure could stand up. Fortunately Winter was able to contact a Civil Engineering professor and set up a day and time to get our wooden columns fashioned with concrete footings.
Winter, Claude and I met up with this professor and he squared us away with one of his students to help create concrete footings for our wooden columns. Claude left the CE lab to work on designed the clamps via solidworks on his laptop. Winter and myself stayed to help and learn to process of creating concrete footings by mixing the concrete. The whole process was quite enjoyable since this was both Winter and myself's first time every being exposed to any concrete mixing.
Luckily we were able to finish with the final prototype and brought it to the final class session. During the final class session, everyone presented information in a show-and-tell manner to the instructors.
Good Luck with Finals & Happy Holidays!
