Client Charette

In searching for a a method of protection we came across the Tuned mass damper. This is used in the Tapai Tower, it results in a giant pendulum that sways against the building's sways, lessening the chances of collapse. Below is our arch that would be placed in the main cafeteria/gym. Also is the model for how the Tuned Mass Damper system looks.


We then decided that we would have create another form of shelter in case some children couldn't get to the main arch. So we created a desk system that is inspired by Anna's desk model. This desk would be planted into the ground to create a more stable shelter.
