Final Presentation
Our Design
The location that my group chose was on top of four storage containers which are located behind the art building. We chose this location because it is very close to the school, but still far enough away to be undisturbed and not disturbing. It also has access to wifi and water. Although building it on top of the storage containers can be dangerous, we have taken most dangers into consideration. We have fence and gates, and we calculated the weight that can be placed on top of the containers. For shade and rain protection we have umbrellas and for heat we have blankets. We use tree stumps for our chairs and build tabled. Because our design is on top of the storage containers we do have a ramp. This ramp is wheelchair accessible and is bolted onto the storage containers. (In the five slide shows below you can see our presentation and blueprints)

Reflection
This project took a lot of team work. Our team did well with this but there were a couple times where we could have done better. We did very well overall with splitting up the work so that everyone had an important part to complete, but we could have done better with telling each other what we were doing. We also did well in the end with getting everything done on time, but we could have don't better with staying on track. Overall two things I learned about myself are that I work great even when someone doesn't tell me what needs to be done, and I also learned how much weight can be placed on top of storage crates.
