A team of three seniors, twoAdvanced Manufacturing students and one Industrial Engineering student, took for theircapstone project the design of a work cell that could easily and economically produce theassemblies for these houses. The team observed the construction site several times throughoutthe semester in order to identify the sizes of the parts
