Abstract
The PLANNING phase’s first significant task is discussed in this chapter. Here students will learn to identify Critical Components of their design. Once the Critical Components have been selected, students are instructed how to perform a qualitative Alternatives Analysis on those components. Three possible Alternative Analysis tools are presented, the Decision Tree, Radar Chart, and Pugh Chart. Emphasis is placed on a systematic approach for the final alternatives selections.
