PROJECT TIMELINE AND DELIVERABLES

The project will consist of five primary stages (see Syllabus for Exact Due Dates):

1. Submission of 1st Iteration STL (& optional TXT File)

• Using SolidWorks, students will design and export their bridge designs as STL files.

Each group should submit an STL file with the following naming format:

o "Section_Team#_Pattern_Density_Shells.STL"* - where "Pattern" is the

infill pattern, "Density" is the infill density (either 0%, 5%, or 10%), and "Shells"

is the number of shells.

。 *Failure to use the aforementioned naming convention described above (e.g.,

"ENME416_Team3_Concentric_5_2.STL") will result in a ½ grade reduction

(e.g., A to A-; A- to B+; etc.).

TXT (or Word file) - If your team wants a special orientation, etc.!

Only one member of each team needs to submit the file(s)!

2. 1st Iteration Printed Parts Returned to Students (Pick-up or Shipped)

The 3D printed structures will be distributed at the end of class.

3. Submission of 2nd Iteration (& optional TXT File)

• After preliminary testing of your 1st iteration, please feel free to make any changes

to the design or build settings. This is the final iteration that will be used for grading.

Only one member of each team needs to submit the .STL file in the aforementioned

naming format! (& TXT if needed) [½ grade reduction still applies if misnamed!]

•

4. 2nd Iteration Printed Parts Returned to Students (Pick-up or Shipped)

See "2" above for details.

5. Team Oral Presentations

Each team will have two of their members present their group's work.

• Team members should prepare a 10-minute PowerPoint presentation [Google

Slides or other format will result in a one letter grade reduction] including:

I. "Bridge Design" - How your team came up with 1st iteration bridge concept,

with a SolidWorks rendering of the bridge architecture(s);

II. "Fabrication Considerations" - Discussion of support structure design (with

SolidWorks rendering), rationale for print orientation and infill/shell settings;

III. "Fabrication Results" – Results (with images/video) for 1st iteration: (i) bridge
