- Individual designs verbally SWOT analysed by all of group. (Individual design drawings photographed and posted on blog.)
- R.D's design was deemed most appropriate solution and its SWOT analysis was noted.
- Design issues were then discussed and resolved and dimensions for the crane were established. This was in order to facilitate the group members going away and 're-designing' the 'initial design' with stress and bending moment analysis.
- Types of winch - electronic or hand, examples of both brought to meeting, costings and weights of mechanisms requested.
Tasks for next meeting:
- All group members to return with fully analysed free-body diagram of proposed crane design for comparison.
- Group members are also to look into bearing design for rotation of crane as well as faesible materials for the manufacture of the crane components.
