PROJECT 1A




We were required to produce a study model of a skeletal structure made out of specific materials that reflects the materials used in actual construction. The study models will be tested to determine its strength and students will be required to analyze the success or failure of their model. Analysis should indicate the students understanding of loads and forces experienced in a skeletal structure.
The aim of this project was to create an understanding of skeletal structure and its relevant structural components, to understand how a skeletal structure reacts under loading, to demonstrate a convincing understanding of how Skeletal Construction works and to be able to manipulate Skeletal Construction to solve an oblique Design problem

PROJECT 2
UNDERSTANDING FORCES IS SOLID AND SURFACE STRUCTURES
The project was based on the concept of solid masonry construction and surface construction methods. It involved a relevant case study of a building of the student’s choice. We were required to dissect a building of their choice and come up with an analysis of the construction methods used in the building. Our analysis was to comprise structural system, material, function and load distribution in the building.
