Attendees
Team: Clayton TerryKara Dobrzynski Veronica PhilippsTravisyard Heiberger
- Guide: Sarah Brownell
Client: Paul Libera, Brian Roode
Goals
Our goals as a team include:
- Pick a Floating Tiles obstacle design (basic or with integrated mountain climb).
- Understand if there are any new CRs now that we have chosen an obstacle.
- Having our customer prioritize aspects of the design (cost, modularity, etc.).
- Taking a team photo.

Issues Raised
- A lot of concerns over cost
- Mats could cost around $2,000 (get some used from RIT?)
- Springs for high strength trampolines are around $2,000 each (maybe use bungee cords?)
- Lumber recently doubled in price
- Forces will pull the sides of the frame inward
- FoS should assume adults will use this obstacle
- May want to move it inside over the foam pit during the winter (though students still go outside in the winter)
- May want to rebuild it
- Want it to be unique from a playground
Decisions Made
- We will go with the Mountain Climb + Floating Tiles idea
Design Ideas
- Drill different holes on the actual tile to vary difficulty
- Different colored tiles for difficulty levels (like a rockwall)
- Use junkyard/recycled items to come up with ideas
- Use a fire hose to cover springs
Action items
