Week #17

With the two new projects in our mind, the team decided to create our own asthetic designs for a potential client. A look to be streamlined instead of clunky. Most of us hand sketched these ideas and further uploaded them onto our team blog for substantial progress. Brainstorming and designing different ideas was a big focus for our team this week.

Week #16

This week the full scale team came to class earlier to meet up with our contact from South Africa who's working on a similar suspended transportation system, Andris. The meeting with Andris was very helpful into figuring out what our team needs to work on during the semester. We've planned to create two designs. One design is an arcitectural design of what the superway could potentially look like. While the other design would be a full-scaled stump of the column, ultimately showing the potential strength and shear volume of our design.

With these two projects in mind, the full scale team has changed our perception onto what our final product and goal is for the rest of the semester.
