Problems Encountered:
We could not start working on the Final Design Specifications until we had met with the client,
as the client might not have agreed with our proposed design, which is what really happened in
the client meeting and the client decided to pick two of our alternative designs and asked us to
combine them._____________________________________________________________

Lessons Learned & Strategies to address Problems:
We learned that a process type solution like ours might not have many obvious social and
external costs, and that we have to do more research and discuss the matter with our instructors
so as to come up with proper social impacts for our design._________________________

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS (items to discuss during tutorial: documents, client meetings, up-
coming due dates and activities, etc.):
_________________________________________________________________________
We need to go over the completed first draft of the FDS and begin to revise it. We must also
clarify a few topics such as the external and social costs of our design with the TA.______
