Tarpaulin

Purpose The purpose of getting client feedback was to determine the specific features of each mockup most preferred by the client, Ally Financial. Three Ally Financial representatives were present, and we asked each to rank the mockups in turn, based on four different criteria. The criteria were: (1) visibility of cars while the device is deployed and not deployed, (2) the aesthetic appeal of the device, (3) feasibility of deployment, and (4) willingness of dealerships to install or use the device.We also asked the clients for their overall impression of each mockup. Test methodology Three team members conducted one client feedback session with each of the mockups during the week of May 9 at the Ford Motor Company Design Center on the Northwestern University Campus which lasted roughly 45 minutes. The mockups were constructed of various materials and differed according to both method of deployment and method of hail protection. The Triple Threat, composed of wood, PVC pipe, and three rolls of fabric, operated with the idea of protecting the cars on all sides with fabric that could be unrolled at a moment’s notice to cover multiple cars at once (figure ?). FIgure ?: The Triple Threat mockup deployed over a row of scaled ‘cars’ The Hail Garage, made from wood and sheet metal, was built on the idea of sun awnings employed by various dealerships. In the event of a hailstorm, walls like garage doors could be deployed to make the ‘awning’ an enclosed structure, protecting…

Some of the formal features in Juliana Spahr’s poem, “Tarpaulin Sky”, include line length, the use of lists, and the use of we. In Spahr’s poem, different line lengths are useful because they allow the reader to more easily develop a sense of what the line in the poem is talking about. Shorter lines are more impactful and give the reader a straight meaning of what the line is, without giving the reader a full interpretation. While shorter lines have less information, the reader can interpret…

In this manner, you have a makeshift shelter. • It can cover anything. Many tarps have a generous coating of either water-resistant or UV-protecting compound. This fact makes it more than an awesome component for creating a portable tent. I’ve already used it before as a sunshield for food, and no casserole got spoiled even after several hours. One time I toured Asia, I saw some utilizing it to cover appliances while they’re being transported. I • It doubles as a groundsheet. Moreover, the…

I can vividly recall instances where my parents had to pull the ropes that held our shelter together to ensure that it was not blown away by the strong winds that often blew during the rainy nights. However, on a certain night, the winds were too strong and managed to blow off the tarpaulin roofs that covered our temporary house. Unfortunately, the roof that had been blown off hit a ten-year-old girl who was a close friend to me. Due to the substantial hit, the young girl succumbed to the…

In the story it states, “I looked down between my legs. I thought I would faint for joy. The open locker glistened with shiny new things…. Drinking water said the vintage label in black letters”( Martel/Pi 86). Pi’s dangerous choice to open the tarpaulin allowed him to find fresh water. His risky decision has rewarded him gratefully.…

began its slow, cumbersome journey to the end of Runway One. Both Steve and Michael stood in silence as the Hercules lumbered along the concrete. At last, making it to take-off velocity, its nose gently rose into the air, and it climbed like a ponderous beast into the skies above, banking to the right as it cleared the bases border and fading away into the distance. No sooner had the calm returned, a distant rumble like that of thunder over a vast distance reached towards them from the main…
