1. Josiah Dobson Brett Nicholson Travis Befus Team 11

2.  Project Overview  Preliminary Designs  Design Norms  Major Decisions Made  Major Obstacles  Travel to Ecuador  Feasibility  Future of Project

3.  Working with HCJB to design a water tower and distribution system for two villages: Iniayua and Washintsa  Iniayua- 25 home community -Currently has a distribution system, but requires a new tower and reservoir -Minimum tower height is 20ft -Minimum capacity of 5000L  Washintsa-15 home community -Requires a tower, pump, and complete distribution system -Minimum capacity of 3000L

4.  Pumping Design Four 80 watt solar panels in Iniayua Modeled around a four hour peak sunlight (10.6 gpm)

5.  Distribution System Iniayua = 10,000 Liters Washintsa = 6,000 Liters

6. Tank Demand in Sync with pumpDemand out of Sync with Pump Pumping system on full efficiency falls 317 gallons short of Daily Demand Solution: Water conservation

7.  Stewardship -Use only materials local to Ecuador -Efficient use of all resources  Transparency -Maintain open communication with our client, HCJB -Make sure the communities we are serving are aware of developments

8.  Tower and Reservoir Designs -Max 6ft long members -Steel and wood designs -collapsible tank

9. Decided on the two communities we will be focusing on Narrowed materials down to steel or wood Using the Grundfos 2.5 SQF solar powered pump

10.  Raised the majority of our funding through the Innotec grant  Purchased plane tickets  Preliminary Models in StaadPro

11.  Communication  Planning the trip -Tools/Equipment to take  Site Data  Material Data Types of wood Costs of Materials

12.  Team has purchased tickets for January 21-31  Fly to Quito and travel by bus to Shell -Meet with the HCJB engineers  Travel by small plane to Washintsa and Iniayua to meet with the client and collect data -topographic -soil testing -layout of the village -Analyze local materials -Analyze water usage and pump operations

13.  Estimated costs are within budget  HCJB is budgeting for the project  Opportunity to travel to Ecuador allows us to gather data  Preliminary designs show that requirements and constraints can be met

14.  Prototype of Tower and System for Senior Design Night  Tower structure design and construction drawings for HCJB  Distribution system designs for Washintsa  Designs and recommendations to reduce pump failures
