Week 6

The group finished designing a computer model of the "pods" of the THMF in SketchUp.The rough draft of the final design report was started and plans to begin construction of a prototype were drawn up; after it was realized that the group was falling behind in the production of a prototype, as seen above. The group also realized that more research needs to be done with respect to placing a double facade on a building, in retrospect to how efficient a double facade would be.

This week was mainly spent doing research, which can be found in the Information/Resources tab as well as in the papers linked to in that section. Further detail was added to the design ideas, which can be found in the Design Description tab.
