A3 Class Plan

Looking Ahead

At the conclusion of A3 on 10/20 I’ll ask each group to be ready with a 2 minute “Sales Presentation” about their system. 

  • Think about what I mean by a “Sales Presentation” – how does it differ from a technical presentation.
  • We’ll asky you to fote for extra credit points (2) using the following criteria
    • Most Effective
    • Most Technically Convincing
    • Most humorous

 

Class Meeting – Wednesday 10/8

Looking at the system definition

  • What is the definition for a structural system?
  • What are the components for some of your systems?
  • How do they “perform a specific function” for your system?

Materials

  • What materials are necessary for your system in addition to any “main” material?

Numbers

  • What kinds of numbers are important for most structural systems?
    • A key goal of having numbers is to allow comparisons when making decisions about the appropriate structural system during design.

 

Class Meeting 10/15

  • What numbers have you found
  • Discussion of “Sales Presentation”
  • Work session with interruptions for issues of general interest
