2.2.1 The Car

Figure 2.2.1.1: Detailed View of Car

Figure 2.2.1.2: Front View of Car

14
Figure 2.2.1.3: View of the car from both sides.

Figure 2.2.1.4: Top View of the Car.

15
Figures 2.2.1.1, 2.2.1.2, 2.2.1.3, 2.2.1.4 show the overall three dimensional view of the car from
the front, top and both sides after all the components are fit together. In the next parts of this
report, the components will be described individually in details.

2.2.2: Body

Figure 2.2.2.1: Top view of the body with dimensions of parts

The presented figure 2.2.2.1 indicates the dimensions of the body of the vehicle. The length of
the inner body is 395 mm, the outer body is 406mm and the width is 152 mm. The thickness of
the plywood used is 1mm, but it also depends on the availability of the plywood and the one
used by the contractors. The length of the bottle holder is 220mm. The egg holder is an oval
shaped piece carved out of thick cardboard with a Styrofoam cushioning for the shock
resistance on the drop force. This is done for the safety of cargo. The bottle holder is a half
cylindrical shaped piece also carved out of thick cardboard and gets nailed to the chassis for
fitment. The small slab of wood between the two cargo holders is a separator. It is fixed to the
chassis with hot glue. There are elastic bands on top of each holder to act as safety straps for
the cargo.

16
 Figure 2.2.2.2: Side view of the body of the car.

Figure 2.2.2.2 is the three dimensional presentation of the side view of the body. Two circular
holes of radius 10mm are made on each of the linear side of the body 20mm away from the
edges for the fitment of two axles which will later on be discussed.

2.2.3: Axles

Figure 2.2.3.1: The length of the axle

Figure 2.2.3.1 shows the length of the axle which is 184mm. There are two steel rods of 10mm
radius as shown in figure 2.2.3.2 acting as axles for this vehicle. These axles pass through the
holes on both sides made on the body as described earlier. The axles are fixed to the ball
bearings with hot glue. The motion of the wheels are dependent to the axles and on the ball
bearings. The length of the axles is 184 mm.

17
Figure 2.2.3.2: Radius of the axle.2.2.4: Ball Bearing

Figure 2.2.4.1: Ball Bearing

18
Ball bearings as shown in figure 2.2.4.1 are used on each hole on the chassis for the movement
of the axles and thus the wheels. The wheels are fitted onto the axles with hot glue. The inner
radius of the bearing is the same as radius of the axle. A total of four bearings are used for the
car. The rotation of the wheels are fully dependent on the axles that pass through the bearings.

2.2.5: Wheels

Figure 2.2.5.1: Radius of the Wheels

Figure 2.2.5.2: Thickness of the wheels.

The figures 2.2.5.1 and 2.2.5.2 are the three dimensional presentation of the wheels. The inner
radius of the wheel is the same as the inner radius of the bearing so that the axle can pass
through them. The total radius of the inner hole is 60mm with a thickness of 2mm as shown in
figure. The material used to make the wheel is also plywood. The wheels are cut using coping
saw and the center is drilled with equal radius as the inner radius of the bearing. Each wheel is
glued fitted on one axle with hot glue. The wheels rotate creating a centrifugal force with the
axles on the bearings.

19
2.2.6: Bottle Holder

Figure 2.2.6.1: Top View of Bottle holder.

Figure 2.2.6.2: Front view of bottle holder

20
The bottle holder is a half cylindrical shaped container carved out of hard cardboard. The radius
is 32mm and there are six elastic straps on it acting as the belt for the cargo for landing impact.
It is nailed to the chassis with a total of four nails using hammers. Only one bottle holder is used
in this vehicle.

2.2.7: Egg Holder:

Figure 2.2.7.1: Top view of egg holder

Figure 2.2.7.2: Height of the egg holder.

21
The eggholder is an oval shaped container carved out of hard cardboard. A slab of cardboard of
the same surface area as the egg holder is cut with proper measurement using coping saw. It is
nailed on to the chassis of the car with a single nail using a hammer. The Styrofoam is used to
cushion the bottom and stuck with hot glue. This is for the safety of the egg to prevent critical
damage. There is one elastic strap on the eggholder acting as the safety strap. A plastic sheet is
also used to prevent the egg from coming out of the holder. Height of the eggholder is 50mm.
Only one eggholder is used in the whole vehicle.

2.2.8: Wheel-Bearing-Axle Connection:

Figure 2.2.8.1: Wheel-Bearing-Axle Connection

The bearings are fit in the holes made on the chassis using hot glue and then the wheels are
further fitted on the outer surface of the axle which pass through the bearings with proper
alignment using hot glue. The bearing is fitted inside of the wooden box and it is made sure that
the bearing has no contact with the wheel to disrupt the wheel rotation.

 3.0 Risk Management Plan
A risk management plan is set up by a company to address possible risks that may occur throughout the project stages . This plan
aims to outline any possible risk outcomes that may occur during each stage and aspects of avoiding and mitigating them.

 4.0 TENDER
EVALUATION

28
4.O Tender Evaluation
4.1 Tender Evaluation Criteria
The tender evaluation criteria is a section of the design package that comprise a document
providing a list of criteria that an interested party or partner is required to meet prior to
attaining the contract. The TEC is anticipated to be executable and suitable for interested
parties to meet criteria by providing the appropriate evidences. The criteria is intended to be
SMART -Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time Controlled.

The SUBzeroX company is interested in working with a team whose vision is parallel to ours in
terms of achieving goals and gaining experience from working together. Hence, the criteria
below is expected to ensure the project progresses with ease.

4.1.1 Safety Consciousness

Safety consciousness is an important component in project construction as safety comes first.
Contractors should be able to demonstrate safety procedures before construction begins to
avoid additional costs. The safety procedure will be constructed during the second meeting
with the contractors that will require the contractor to have basic knowledge on first aid tips
which in case will be for cuts, burns, . The table below displays the criteria and score.

The contractors are expected to construct within the projects budget to achieve the best
outcome of the project. The table below displays the criteria and score.

4.1.3 Communication

Communication allows team members to convey information clearly and effectively through
the construction of the project to avoid difficulties and conflicts. Team members are expected
to communicate through English to eliminate a language barrier and to ensure everyone
understands and participates. The table below displays the criteria and score.

30
4.1.4 Responsibility
Responsibility ensures team members to be assertive and effective with a given task. The team
members are expected to complete tasks given, either it be delegated or as a whole, to meet
due dates to avoid delay in construction. Do note that penalty is given either if an individual or
the group as a whole fails to provide evidence.The table below displays the criteria and score.

Time management is a vital factor that enables a party or individuals to progress effectively and
efficiently through the construction of the project. Team members are expected to be on time
