Project's Goal

As presented, the following blog is reponsible for taking records and sharing the development of all of Rivetto's Integrative Project II.

The  main objective of the PI is to design the requested project and to build riveted joints that resist 40 kN tensile strength using recycled aluminium. The following specifications will be considered:

 - The riveted joints must be 2in wide;
 - Definition quantity, lay out and diameter of the rivets;
 - Must be defined which foundry process will be better;
 -The design of the joint and casting of the rivets must be delivered at predetermined dates in the work plan, with each of these projects containing a calculation memorial, 3D CAD model and mechanical drawings;
- A sample of the designed joint, utilizing plates of carbon steel with thickness and width to be determined by the team, must be tested in a universal testing machine to verify if it resists a 40kN load;

 - There must be delivered, at least, two cast rivets followed by a quality analysis report contemplating dimensional, visual and macrographic analysis inspection.
