Year 8 Design and Technology Structures / Architecture – Resource fact file – to be used alongside ‘DT - Yr 8 Structures - Architecture - Class Work Booklet’.
This document is to be used in conjunction with the other files produced in this body of work.
Once all work for this project has been completed, including ‘DT - Yr 8 Structures - Architecture - Block exam’, students can move onto this extension project.
This project is designed to promote team building.
Students are to create a tower using the same materials as before, but must focus more heavily on triangulation.
Students should be advised to create a structure that is both structurally sound, yet cost effective.
Items needed:
- Straws (paper art straws work well and are more cost effective)
- Paper
- Hot glue guns and glue or Sellotape.
- Weights to test the structure.
