Week 7 Update - Second Presentations

During this week we had more presentations during the class session. For our project, my group has done more research into the ratchet system. We also analyzed the impact of a third redundant component. Research has shown that redundant components are often used as a fail-safe and help increase reliability. On the redundant components, we can potentially implement an emergency brake and the ratchet system onto that system. However, after our presentation, it seems that we need to implement a "catch" for the cabin in case it were to fall. The group will be compiling ideas and bringing it to our group meetings the following Tuesday, November 3.
