3. Group Development Roles and Responsibilities • Leader- Kartikey • Scribe- Sarah and Courtney • Timekeeper- Jon Ko

4. Group Development Roles and Responsibilities:

5. Group Development (cont’d) Team Constitution • Effective Group

6. Timeline • Kept us on task

7. Problem Statement Roadrunner Trucking wants us to build a can crusher that will reduce the volume of their aluminum cans.

8. Background • Roadrunner Trucking → a lot of aluminum cans • Aluminum cans must be reduced by 70% • $0.05 fine per can

9. Background

10. Customers • Mr. Pritchard • Roadrunner Trucking

11. Scope Outputs • Can Crusher • Tech Report • Power Point Resources • Internet • Mr. Pritchard- Tech • Miss Hernacki- Math Calculations • Mr. Hund- CAD Drawings

12. Scope Potential Materials • Wood • PVC • Metal brackets • Metal hinges • Nails and screws

13. Scope Key Constraints • Max space of 18”×24”×30” • One simple machine • One unit • Manually operated • Bin must hold 20 uncrushed cans

14. Deliverables • Can Crusher • Tech Report • Power Point presentation

15. Brainstorming • What materials? • What size? • What type of Can Crusher?

16. Research and Generate Ideas

17. Criteria • Self-loading • Inexpensive • Simple • Not time consuming • Reliable

18. Constraints • Design occupies 18” x 24” x 30” (maximum) • Materials: wood, PVC, metal brackets, metal hinges, screw & nails • Uses one simple machine (minimum) • Crushed can falls into aluminum can bin • Aluminum can bun slides in and out of crusher • Can hold 20 crushed cans

19. Explore Possibilities • Pros and Cons of an object • Narrows down decisions -Design -Materials -Adhesive
