Gantt Chart

Points for Consideration

• Initial designs finished a week in advance due to concerns over time lost in Research &

Feedback. One of us began preparation for workshop in advance of plan, because time was left free whilst some were finalising research notes, and one of us made a start on design work. • Manufacture of the model delayed the design of the floats by a week. The contingency time for the model manufacture was left until after completion of the floats, because this was time set aside for painting and stylising, but by that stage the floats were our priority. • Contingency time was also used to work on the model while others were compiling report. • The manufacture of floats was brought forward a week due to concerns over time lost in manufacturing model and the testing conducted before completion of the floats was done on the tower on its own, purely to test buoyancy without stability. This was done due to concerns over time lost in manufacturing, and concerns over having to wait until full testing could be done. • Final Testing had to be delayed further to 6th April due to limited availability of pool. In the meantime, we started on the report and made final touches to the floats and model.
