What We've Been Doing From Lab 4 to Lab 5

This week, we decided to focus on familiarizing ourselves with SketchUp, Philadelphia's Native Plants, and the area we are renovating. In Sketchup, we created the building, which is the basis of our area. That was difficult because we had to place each window on individually, but it helped us to gain a better understanding of how to use Sketchup, which we then used to created the right-of-way bioswale and sidewalks. Ina created a thread detailing the drainage in our area, and Carolina posted about the deterioration of the drain in the area we are in. Unfortunately, we didn't correctly draw the bioswale, so we will be re-doing it, but now we know how to create GSI's in SketchUp. Below are some pictures of our progress!

What will it look like?

What We've Been Doing From Lab 6 to Lab 7

Hey guys! This week, we've been hard at work on the final report draft, so we have not had much time to work on the design. However, we were able to create a piping system extending into the sewer grate, and we taught ourselves how to create curved pipes in SketchUp. Along with our progress, we conducted more research on native Philadelphian plants, and implemented some of the ones we could find as 3-D models in the design. This week, we also started to conduct runoff calculations for our problem area. Next week, we will focus exclusively on creating the drainage area map, as well as doing calculations for the drainage, and we will complete the addition of the native plants into the design. Below are some pictures of our progress!
