Project Brief (Final)

Project Brief (Final)

Brandan Garrido

In essence, this project is a deploayble seated area. It gives students a place to eat or study under the roof of a pavilion. When it is deployed, the benches go up and are hooked to the side structure. The seats act as a shaded pavillion that protects from adverse weather or from sunlight. 

Many protoypes were made before the main one. Four or five iterations of the project were made to get to the final product. Figuring out what and where things would work impacted the project greatly. Having the connections of the hinge with the seats was not working so it took another approach. A long wire to hook through the chairs was used to get it connected. The rest was easy and to the point. 

The project mainly used cardboard at first because that was the only thing that would work. Ducttape was used to get the whole thing connected. Then, it started to get advnaced. The project got into the wood industry and the pieces started to work. The connections of the chairs to the roof went smooth with wood and the pulley system is something to admire. It works full proof now and the materials were wood and screws.
