Project Title sponsored by: ABC Designs, Inc team members: name 1 name 2 etc.

Outline Introduction Description of Design Assumptions Analysis Design Iterations Final Design Fabrication Process Testing and Evaluation Conclusions

Introduction Brief background of project –sponsor info –need for project (where, why, how?) –statement of requirements –deliverables

Description of Design Design specifications –load capability –dynamic requirements –thermal requirements –geometric (space) limitations –control specifications –software interface requirements

Justification of Design previous/similar projects research in current technology

Assumptions All assumptions made in the design process –assumptions about design specifications –analytical assumptions

Analysis Calculations –show how design decisions were based on analysis (not trial and error) –brief equations, no derivation; only principle used and result obtained –table and charts you created references

Design Iterations Brief description of design iterations on the way to the final design

Final Design Show details of final design and prototype demonstration

Fabrication Process How did you build it? –machined yourself –COTS products –sub-contracted work

Testing and Evaluation Validate your design Prototype testing Revisions as a results of test

Cost Analysis Prototype cost breakdown and budget comparison

Production Design How does the prototype compare to a production model What improvements would be recommended
