  4. Project Management • Team Leader: Stacey Triplett • E-mails • Sent by Stacey • Every class (three times a week) • What was accomplished • Tasks for next class • Upcoming deadlines

  5. Revised Problem Statement Ultimately, the team’s mission is to create a ceiling for a studio apartment that will be both functional and cost efficient for the apartment contractor, as well as customizable, creative, and useful for the tenant.

  6. Our idea uses Armstrong Industries’ strengths, while allowing for future advancements to become reality.

  7. Black Box Model

  8. Concept Generations The parabolic curved light fixture allows to use the full potential of the light emitted from the bulb throughout the room.

  9. Concept Generations A thin layer of gas (inert, Argon) would be sealed in between two panels to hamper sound waves.

  10. Concept Generations A thin layer of wood backing would allow for additional storage, and fetter sagging.

  11. Concept Generations Small, metallic specs would be placed in the tile to reflect more light.

  12. Concept Generations A drop ceiling would cover up the use of acoustical foam, which would aid in sound proofing and a fire proofing.

  13. Concept Generations The ceiling system would encourage modification and customization, including the ability to add a Wi-Fi router or speakers, or other advancements for the future.

  14. Concept Generations The contrast of colors would create an illusion of space and openness, give room for recessed lighting, and allow for easy accessibility to air ducts, wires, and pipes.

  15. Morphological Chart • Team’s concept generation • Grouped concepts into five basic functions • Most promising concepts chosen

  16. Concept Selection Criteria • Safety • Compatible with safety regulations • Lighting • Ability for light to diffuse around the room • Acoustic • Ability to absorb and block sound • Air Control • Air flow and temperature • Decoration • Appearance to the customer • Convenience • Availability of materials • Ability to be manufactured and constructed

  17. Pugh Charts Acoustics Temperature Control

  18. Pugh Charts Lighting

  19. Pugh Charts Customizability Strength

  20. Final Design Pugh Chart • Final Design Includes: • Material Layer Panels (Armstrong) • Parabolic Light • Built-in Speakers and Wi-Fi • Wood Layer Panel

  21. Materials List

  22. Materials List • The quantities obtained in the table were analyzed for a typical sixteen by nineteen foot studio apartment • The costs in the table were tabulated from Armstrong and retail distributor values • The average total costs per square foot was approx. $30.62 in materials • The Complexity Factor was 1.3 • Taking materials and labor into consideration, the entire project as of 2017 dollars would be $13793.51

  23. CAD Drawings

  24. CAD Drawings

  25. Engineering Analysis • Cost Calculations for one square foot: • Panels: $4.55 per square foot • Cables: $0.18 per foot– Approx. 1 foot cable per square foot = $0.18 per square foot • Suspension Clips: $1.56 per foot cable = $1.56 per square foot • Aluminum: $11 per square foot • Plywood: $10 per square foot • Paint: $20 per gallon—Approx. 5 gallons for the room = $0.33 per square foot • Light bulb= $3 per bulb = Max of $3 per square foot • Total: $30.62 per square foot

  26. Engineering Analysis • Max budget was approx. $80- 120 per square foot • The team calculated $29 per square foot • This is relatively cheap and ideal for a studio apartment owner

  27. Concluding Remarks • Met Our Customer Needs • Studio apartment tenants • Armstrong • Within Budget • Adaptable for the future
