Abstract

This paper represents the possibility of paper materials transforms into the chair model that has potential in the furniture manufacturing in the future. This paper aims to design, simulate and analyze with the static analysis using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and validation testing with a real-life prototype model of the paper chair that has been proposed from the Product Development Process (PDP) in terms of design structure and materials used. Paper waste materials are the best selection of unwanted and worthless waste that can be transformed into the usable and functional furniture products where it can help to solve the lack of recycling activities and reduce the major environmental problems. The result in terms of the static analysis where a lower value than the proposed yield strength which means the design structure is very durable and can endure the human’s weight that over 80 kg. Plus, the Factor of Safety (FOS) result shows the blue color region of the analysis has passed successfully where it is durable to withstand the human’s weight and safe to use. The result in terms of the paper waste materials that have been designed for the validation process has a good durability and toughness along with a good reliability of the Cronbach Alpha value that was concluded the paper materials for furniture manufacturing have the capability to succeed in the future.
