Pugh Matrix

The document describes a Pugh Matrix, which is a decision matrix used to evaluate multiple design alternatives against select criteria. The sample matrix shows 3 design concepts evaluated based on criteria like safety, durability, weight, ease of assembly, reliability and cost. Each concept receives a score of +, - or 0 for each criterion relative to the baseline. The totals and rank are then calculated to help identify the best overall design concept.
