Welcome!
Welcome to the Industrial Engineering Project portion of my STEM II page! Here you can see the accomplishments that I made during this part of my STEM II adventure. During this project our class was required to use Fusion 360. This was a computer program that allowed us to virtually create our cardboard holder. This made the project more enjoyable for me since I've always enjoyed working with computers and their programs. We also were required to make a kitchen redesign using our critical thinking skills and sketching techniques. Scroll down to learn more!

Task
Task
This project was difficult for a guy like me to make sure I build something successful. The task is to create both a Fusion 360 drawing of each cardboard cutout piece. The goal was to create a cardboard contraption that could support my weight. I weigh 170 pounds by the way. When each piece is made in Fusion 360 it was required to make the pieces in real life out of cardboard. Once the pieces are all cut out, you had to assemble your contraption in under 60 seconds. When it was assembled and ready to be tested, I was required to try to stand on it for 30 seconds without it breaking.

Like shown above, This is the picture of the first wall that I created. Four of these pieces were made to make a square.

Picture of middle piece (Fusion 360)
This piece is known to be a middle piece that slides smoothly in between two square pieces.

This was another middle piece. This piece could be called the opposite from the other piece because it has two cuts in the bottom so the circle can easily be fit into the other cuts.

This is the circle piece. This piece would be rolled up and slid into both previous pieces.

If you're interested in seeing the performance of my build I suggest you watch the video. You can see what each one of my parts looks like. You will also be able to see how each part of mine is assembled together. Enjoy! :)

Kitchen Redesign (Before Sketch)
Kitchen Redesign (Before Sketch)
In my kitchen there were a few problems that posed as safety hazards and just a waste of time. The overall flow was a little weird so I knew it was something that had to be fixed. The cups were located next to the stove so if someone was cooking they couldn't get anything to drink . Another issue was that the utensils were right next to the stove so if someone needed to grab some silverware to set the table it would cause a problem. So overall the work flow and safety had to be improved.

Kitchen Redesign (After Sketch)
In this after sketch I decided to move the stove to the island. Here there would be better access to the utensils and cups. Then I moved the microwave on top of the dishwasher so multiple people can cook with two accessories. If you see the dotted arrow the overall work flow is improved greatly as well as the safety since the stove is no longer next to the cups and utensils.
