Activity 6.4 Structural Analysis Automoblox
Introduction
You have already performed a Visual Analysis and a Functional Analysis of your Automoblox vehicle. During this activity you will investigate vital product characteristics with regard to the structure of the product. You will research and document your findings using careful measurements, sketches, and notes which will complete the reverse engineering of your product. You will use the information you have gathered during the process in the next unit when you design an enhancement or accessory for the Automoblox vehicle.
