Structural Engineering: Foundation 1 Unstable Center #4

Closed ds7-ds closed 4 years ago

ds7-ds commented 4 years ago

[x] Center of foundation 1 bounces when tapped. This may cause robot and foundation 2 to shake.
[x] Foundation 1 plan needs to be updated to reflect this issue.
[x] Add bracket to Foundation 1. Refer Foundation 1 instructions.

ds7-ds commented 4 years ago

A possible solution is to add a third horizontal aluminum bracket to support the center. This would allow support without interfering in the path of the robot or columns.

See Test Lab 1. Issue resolved. Updating Foundation 1 plans.

ds7-ds commented 4 years ago

Plans for Foundation 1 are being updated. Issue was closed accidentally.

ds7-ds commented 4 years ago

Refer to Columns plan for placement of screws on Foundation 1. Make sure to avoid further hassles.

ds7-ds commented 4 years ago

Another solution is to use foam pads. Pads are able to be applied anywhere underneath Foundation 1.

ds7-ds commented 4 years ago

Solution 3 is to use both the bracket and foam pads. On a different note, delays are occurring due to non-project related issues.

ds7-ds commented 4 years ago

Since Foundation 1 was updated and chosen solution works, recent suggested solutions may be ignored unless something comes up. Modification of Foundation 1 is in progress.

ds7-ds commented 4 years ago

Modification was successful and Test Lab 1 result still proved true.
