2. Product Evaluation What in the testing rack can affect the amount of weight stress outputted by this product onto it’s handler? Size? Shape? Amount of Parts?
16. Our Decision We decided to remove the steel base of the testing rack. It added unnecessary weight. We created a storage unit for the testing racks in which 4 could be carried or stored at a time reducing overall weight. We also replaced many Aluminum and Steel parts with Garolite because of the lower density 2.70 g/cm³ VS. 1.73 g/cm³
17. Mass Analysis of the Testing Rack (Before) Final Mass: 12.427 lbs.
