    Introduction
    This assignment is in three parts, design, data and queries, and an evaluation of your work. All parts of the assessment relate to the Happy Aquatics scenario below.

    Scenario
    Happy Aquatics are an aquatics supplier and installer based in Braintree, England. They want you to design and implement a database that meets the requirements for their data. These requirements are specified in this scenario and the examples of paper documents kept by the company shown below. Happy Aquatics specialise in installing aquariums into the offices of corporate customers. Customers may order many installations but each Installation is assigned to a specific Customer. Installations are classified by type. Each Installation many have one or more staff assigned to it. Since these installations are often very large they may involve carpenters and bricklayers as well as aquatics installation staff. Installations use equipment such as fish tanks, air pumps and thermostats. There may be many pieces of equipment in an Installation. Below are samples of the paper records currently kept by Happy Aquatics.
