PROJECT 1 : Skeletal Construction "A shelter for one"
In a group of 6 we are to make a 1 to 1 scale shelter that does not exceed a height of 1.5m with a 0.75x0.75m base.This shelter should be built using recycled materials.
Objectives of this project :
1. To create an understanding of skeletal structure and its relevant structural components.
2. To understand how a skeletal structure reacts under loading.
3. To demonstrate a convincing understanding of how Skeletal Construction works.
4. To be able to manipulate Skeletal Construction to solve an oblique Design problem.
Learning Outcome :
1. Apply construction system in design.
2. Recognize the implication of construction systems in design.
3. Analyse the issues of strength, stiffness and stability of structures including modes of structural systems, forces, stress and strain and laws of static.
