ABSTRACT
In the modern era of furnitures, folding furnitures like chairs and tables are very popular as
this were used by people to let their home be more spacious that brings to the topic that this
furniture is a multipurpose furniture.The researchers goes to the product they named as
"CHAIBLE" which is the combination of a folding chair and a folding table and to make it to have
multiple purposes for the people to use it. The researchers’ objective in this product is to know if
this product will have an ability to free up space and storage inside their home and how well this
product can benefit the users. In order for the researchers to do this, they are assigned to make their
own product and build it and finish it in a designated time. The only problem that the researchers
faced doing the product is finding a good materials as the researchers think the safety of the product
when the users sits on it. They gathered materials for their product that can fit for its durability.
They used palo-china as their wood because of its strength, light colored and it's durability that fits
for the product. They added an extra features to the product where you can play chess for the
entertainment. The researchers did this product in a span of 20 days. After they finished the product,
they presented it in exhibit to explain what the capabilities of the product are. The researchers
concluded that the product useful and can benefit the users as this product can free up space and
the needs of the storage.
As we see in this modern age, furniture are an essential part of our everyday lives. Furniture
is everywhere we can see it in our own houses, building and etc. We can also see many businesses
that is mainly towards furniture making as it’s the best product for its usefulness. In accordance
with McMahon (2016), for the lacking of space area like offices, businesses or even inside the
houses, a folding table is very more likely be usable for this problems as this product gives many
different use for the users for the product is a multipurpose. The statement above explains that
there are business places that are lacking in space which is why McMahon states that combo
furniture like chaible or something is very beneficial to its users especially in a space-lacking area.
He also asserted that the folding tables are very convenient as this product are very flexible that it
can store right away in a place where the product can be stored as this can be fold into smaller
Based on the statement of Christensen, M.B. (2014), the mechanism of a functional folding
chairs gives some pleasing design to the eyes of a the buyers in which the chairs gives more
additional value to the product’s feature. He also said that a simplicity of a folding and unfolding
of the chair makes it more appreciated that shows compliments from the product and uniting the
From the statement of Buffart (2017), In today’s age architectural application, the
functionality of a folding products like chairs and tables are really helpful to lessen the space of
the user. Utilizing this products is a good way and idea to transform any houses with a shortage of
space into a spacious area which helps the user to be less compact inside their house. He also stated
that having a multipurpose furniture provides multiple creativity as it unleashes more potentials
A claim by Sakanoue K., et. al, (2012), folding table’s part are very important as this will
help the product fully functional. Using specific parts for the locks, for the support and for the
shaft holes will make the product easily to use. Using the parts should be useful as this will
strengthen the product itself. The producer should have a manual on where to put the parts of the
product in order for the user to know where it will be put and where will be the designated places
Piretti, G., (2015) states that the parts of a folding chair has an elements or parts where
there is a right measurement. If the parts has a specific measurements, like having the chair’s pair
of legs parts and the rotatable joints structure should be in a transverse axis as this will make the
users be more comfortable and the chair will not be shakier. Having a right measurement pf a
chair will be more structured and fine as this will make the users like more the product.
According to Frankel, A.D., Zheng, & S., Zheng, T., (2014), headrest is very important to
a chair as this is very universal for the product that will make it more comfortable. The model of
a headrest expands the functionality of the chair as it is attached at the top of the backrest of a
folding chair. This will give the product flexibility as for the multipurpose product as it give
cleverness of the product on how the headrest be more supportive to the products purpose of
comfortability.
According to Yang, B., (2012), supporting frames of the folding product is a portion of a
multipurpose products which are called extras. Supports in an object gives an additional safety
for the product. Example of supporting frames are the backrest support, sliding sleeves, support
rod and the frame body. Having this supporting materials gives the users application to add more
benefits as they use their folding chair. The more they have a supporting frames, the more they
are likely to love the product and they can have like a more decorative chair in their house.
From the statement of Lu, CM, et. al., (2010), locks in a folding chair is very important as
the locks will help the product to not easily be broken and will support every joints of the
product. The locking mechanism of a folding chair will be the support of the chair as this provide
the strength to the any parts where the locks is being attached from. As the users use the locks
from the product, they will not be worried for their safety as the locking mechanism provides
