Basic Research 1. What is a truss and how are trusses used in bridge design? Include the importance of triangular shapes in truss design. A truss is a formation produced by triangular components. The triangular units forming the truss are slim and straight in form. The truss bridges consist of a grouping of triangles. Trusses are used in bridge design to form a series of strong supports using triangles‚ and have the forces of tension and compression acting on them. The importance of triangular

Expand your LEGO Castle collection with the Troll’s Mountain Fortress. The massive set includes all types of characters and multiple ways to build the inventive castle design. Created to fit all types of standard LEGOs‚ the Mountain Fortress is a great item to mix with other sets‚ but is large enough to stand on its own. The main highlight of the LEGO Trolls’ Mountain Fortress is the fortress itself. It can be built in three different ways and there are detailed instructions for each of those methods

The main objective of this work is to characterize the strength of a honeycomb sandwich panel according to the type and time of curing and to the core-skin bonding. This project aims to find a good setup of core and skin of a sandwich panel for future aeronautical applications that fulfil the resistance requirements. It is necessary to ensure a solid bond or adhesion between the honeycomb core and skin in order to achieve these high aeronautical requirements. For this reason‚ it is very important

Light wooden framed buildings were originally discovered when light partition walls were capable of forming a construction system by themselves. The system consists of timber studs frames assembled on site and tilted vertically or horizontally depending and what is needed. The idea was improved and accelerated with the availability of cheap mass produced nails and properly planed and cut pieces of wood. The first step to building a light timber platform building is to lay foundation walls to support

We all know Iron Man as the man in the red armor‚ yet we cease to know exactly what made the suit capable of it’s abilities. Nanotechnology is the prime reason behind Iron Man’s abilities in both the comic and movies. His suit actually contained little iron‚ in fact‚ the suit was “heavy‚ dense and prone to rust” (16). Thanks to Nanotechnology the suit was altered into something that would weigh less‚ be easier to maneuver in and prevent him from being injured during combat. As stated by Lynne Robinson

Introduction Silver is a chemical element with atomic number 47 and symbol Ag. It is white‚ soft‚ mallable and ductile metal slightly harder than gold. Silver is extremely flexible‚ this means that it can be converted into both flat sheets and electrical wire. This makes silver is an ideal metal for all kinds of industrial use. Silver occurs in lead‚ Zinc and copper ore deposits. Lead ore is the main source of Silver. In fact‚ 75% of the resources in the world are found in association with other
