Problem
Statement
Our
client has asked us to design a standing desk with a budget of $200
that can serve as an alternative to the conventional seated desk.
Studies have shown that sedentary behavior for long periods of time
cause, not only, health problems like obesity and musculoskeletal
problems, but also issues with productivity. A standing desk
would aim to provide a solution to these major problems with features
such as comfortability, pleasing aesthetics, durability, safety as
well as adjustability of both the height and pitch of the desk, which
would all be keys to the design.
Last
Week's Goals
- Start drawing CAD designs
- Draw some semi-final designs
- Do research on more of the science behind our project
- Create presentation for poster day
Summary
of Team Role Accomplishments
- Leader Michael Petri- Led group in detailed potential final design drawings. Started to finalize which plans were going to become part of the final design.
- Communicator- Connor- will be in touch with the client with questions and reporting our progress

Summary
of Design Accomplishments
- The presentation for poster day was created and mostly finalized.
- The brainstorming list was practically finallized and we opened up more categories when it came to materials so we could make more educated decisions.
- We are leaning towards using car jacks in our design, and discovered a potential new idea of a motorcycle jack
- We determined which pitch adjustment would work the best

Project
Difficulties
It
is hard to know what our actual machining abilities are going to be
when it comes to building the designs that we have been drawing.
