Zane Middle School upcycled bench

Abstract

The purpose of this project is to provide aesthetically-pleasing outdoor seating for the students of Catherine L. Zane Middle School in Eureka, California, and to incorporate upcycled materials into the final product. Throughout the duration of the project, a specific engineering design process was followed. Initial stages of the project included information gathering and problem analysis. Many different bench styles were explored in the planning process and multiple prototypes developed. The final design fulfills the criteria most appropriately and consists of welded galvanized steel and street signs obtained from various sources.
