Assignment 2: CONFIGURATION AND PARAMETRIC DESIGN Instructions This is an individual assignment that contributes 10% to your final grade. The deadline for this assignment is Friday 8/7/2022. Task A customer would like to support a 1500-kg cuboid block by a column (pillar) as shown in Figure 1. Your team has been hired to complete the configuration and parametric design. The customer would be unhappy if the column buckled or cost too much. Begin the parametric design by formulating the problem and complete the following tables. List pertinent constraints. Propose. your design with justifications of whether cost or safety is more important for the design. Your proposal must be accompanied by at least a part drawing and an assembly drawing. Other Problem Information 1. The force causing the first sign of buckling is the critical load P. according to Euler's buckling formula given where E-modulus of Elasticity, Imoment of area (inertia) of the column cross-sectional area and L-column length. Per = πΖΕΙ 12 2. Propose 2 materials for the column. Examples of column materials: E = 70 GPa E-210 GPa. However, the column materials are not limited to these two materials. 3. Column available in different cross sectios: circular, rectangular or "H" column. It can be made solid or shell. The range of height is 3-5 m. 4. For the dimension of the block. (length x width) in cm x height in m, use 3 last digits from your student matriculation numbers. If you have a zero then use the number before. 5. List in the reference section journals/websites you use to get the reference data. 6. All proposals will be considered coming from competing companies, the customer will use safety and cost as main parameters for evaluation. However, you can also propose other parameters for the customer to evaluate your design. Figure 1: The Block 7. The column must be able to support a maximum load of 3000 kg. 8. The cost must be calculated based on the mass of the column material used. W h
