There is a need in underdeveloped countries for building materials. One approach is to make building blocks (4 by 6 by 12 in.) from highly compacted soil. Your assignment is to design a block-making machine with the capacity for producing 600 blocks per day at a capital cost of less than $300. Develop a needs analysis, a defi nitive problem statement, and a plan for the information that will be needed to complete the design.
