EXISISTING SOLUTION FLAWS

WATER WELLO

 WATERWATER WELLO IS ONE OF THE EXISISTING SOLLUTIONS FOR THE WATER CARRYING
PROBLEMS IN VILLAGES.
IT HAS A CAPASITY OF CARRYING 45 LITERS OF WATER ,IN ONE TRIP IT PROMISES TO
PROVIDE WATER TO THE ENTIRE FAMILY IN A DAY.
CAPASITY:-45 LITERS
DIMENSIONS:-630mmX560mm
MATERIALS:-
HANDLE:-POWDER COATED MILD STEEL.
WATER CONTAINER :-POLYTHELENE PLASTIC.

FLAWS OF THE SOLUTION:-

• THE WATER WELLO IS VERY DIFFICULT TO CARRY IN ROUGH TERRAINS AND HILLY AREAS , THE PLASTIC USED MIGHT BREAK DUE TO HARD STONES,ROCKS AND UNEVEN SURFACES.

• MOSTLY VILLAGES HAVE “KACHHA ROADS” WITH MANY BIG STONES AMD SHARP OBJECTS ,THIS WILL MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR THE VILLAGE PEOPLE TO MOVE THE WATER WELLO.

• STEAP SLOPES USUALLY WITH AN ANGLE MORE THAN 60 DEGREES CAN MAKE SITUATIONS WORSE ,THE PERSON ROLLING THE WELLO UPHILL CAN FACE A LOT OF ISSUES,THE ENTIRE WEIGHT OF THE WATER WELLO PLUS THE 45 LITER FILLED WATER CONTAINER COMES ON THE PERSON PUSHING THE WELLO.

• THERE MIGHT BE PROBLEMS TAKING TURNS WITH THE WELLO.

• THE HANDLE PROVIDED TO THE WATER WELLO IS VERY THIN ,THERE ARE CHANCES OF  BREAKAGE.

• IN ONE TRIP IT PROMISES TO PROVIDE WATER  TO THE ENTIRE FAMILY IN A DAY,BUT ACCORDING TO DESIGN MATRIX ANALYSIS(PHASE 3)  AN AVERAGE FAMILY REQUIRES ABOUT 517 LITERS (APPROX) OF WATER IN A DAY.THE CAPASITY OF WELLO IS 45 LITERS OF WATER ,SO ATLEAST THE PERSON WILL HAVE TO MAKE 10 TRIPS TO GET  MINIMUM OF 450 LITERS A DAY.

VALUE CHAIN ANALYSIS

BASIC VALUES OF KAVAD/POT:-

• NON-PRODUCTIVE:-

1. HAMMERING
2. BEATING
3. CAN BE USED TO PRODUCE NOISE

• PRODUCTIVE:-

1. STORAGE
2. CARRYING
3. PORTABILITY
4. CAN BE USED AS AN INSTRUMENT TO PRODUCE SOUND

 THE KAVADS(VESSELS) ARE CARRIED BY A THICK BAMBOO STICK
WHICH HAS A HIGH TENSILE STRENGTH .
THE USAGE OF THICK BAMBOO STICK IS CAUSING A BIG PROBLEM
TO THE SHOULDERS OF VILLAGE PEOPLE WHO CARRY WATER FROM
LONG DISTANCES.

 POTS/KAVADS MADE UP OF STAINLESS STEEL

• STAINLESS STEEL PROPERTIES:-

STAINLESS STEEL IS AN ALLOY HAVING FOLLOWING PROPERTIES:-

1. HARD
2. CORROSION RESISTANT
3. MALLEABLE
4. DUCTILE
5. HIGH TEMPERATURE STRENGTH

VILLAGE WOMAN CARRY THE POTS ON THEIR HEADS ,THE MAIN HEALTH PROBLEM

FACED BY THESE WOMEN ARE BACK .THE NECK OF THE PERSON IS ALSO AFECTED

BY CARRYING HUGE LOAD AND WALKING LONG DISTANCES.

STAKE-HOLDER ANALYSIS

STAKE-HOLDER ANALYSIS:-

Here in stake -holder analysis i have taken into account the 

responsiblity holders and the ultimate user.The distinction 

between primary and secondary is done on the basis of its chain

of importance.

CONCLUSIONS FROM MATRIX ASSESMENT AND REDEFINING THE PROBLEM STATEMENT.

CONCLUSION FROM DESIGN MATRIX ASSESMENT:-

1. VILLAGE PEOPLE HAVE TO TRAVELL LONG DISTANCES ARE THE POINTS OF FOCUS. 

(CONCLUSION FROM DESIGN MATRIX 1) 

2. FOCUS ON HEALTH OF VILLAGE PEOPLE

(CONCLUSION FROM DESIGN MATRIX 2)

3.DESIGN MATRIX 3 GIVES THE STATISTICS OF 

THE TOTAL WATER CONSUMTION BY INDIVIDUALS,

AVERAGE PERSON,FAMILY AND THE VILLAGE.

INITIAL PROBLEM STATEMENT:- VILLAGE PEOPLE HAVE TO WALK LONG DISTANCES  TO  FETCH WATER

REDEFINING THE PROBLEM STATEMENT:-VILLAGE PEOPLE SUFFER HEALTH ISSUES CARRYING WATER FOR LONG DISTANCES.   

DESIGN MATRIX(PHASE 3)

 

 UPPER COULMN IS AVERAGE PERSON CONSUMTION AND THE LOWER COULMN IS FAMILY CONSUMTION

TOTAL OF WATER CONSUMTION FROM DIFFERENT AREAS
