Second day, Book learning

This is the post for my second day as group leader of Humber.

So far the design we’ve agreed on was very vague and needed some refining. We made some adjustments where we bounce ideas back and forth. And at the end of the we have created four design ideas in total.

The design we created was based around a roundabout idea, this would allow a natural flow of traffic and some sort of control. I will go in depth in a later post.

Around noon we separated the task on completing the project between the five of us.

For my contribution I went and secluded myself in the library to borrow some books. The books I borrowed are the construction of steel and concrete bridges for the contructability. A bridge design book for the aesthetic and look. A book showing previous bridges for precedent studies. And one about principles on bridges such as parts and components of a bridge.

Having an array of books I shared this with my group members so that they don’t feel left out on the information I found.

Later on I was adviced to look more into the requirements and regulations of our design and, shockingly, found it falling short to the standards.

So for my next step I will be looking into the regulations and standards.
