In this lesson, you will be making something like the shapes below. The beginnings of a suspension bridge.
To begin, you will need:
A 'Tube' and 'Box' as a hole and the videos below.
This is what we are aiming for in this part. This may take you into next lesson as well.
Follow these steps to engineer your bridge.
What you are going to build in part 1: A quarter of a tube
What you are going to build in part 2: The main suspension cables
What you are going to build in part 3: Joining and aligning the cables
What you are going to build in part 3: Adding the deck
What you are going to build in part 4: four pillars to the cables
What you are going to build in part 2: Fences to the sides of the deck
Learning Intention:
Can I Create Custom Shapes?
Success Criteria:
I can group hollow 3D shapes to create new ones.
I can rotate and finely move my new shapes with precision.
I can group and duplicate my new shapes to engineer supports, beams and pillars.
