Hollywood Wax Museum
UCLA

Distance From My House

UCLA is about 2,119 miles away from my house. Which is about a 33 hour car ride. If you took a plane to UCLA then it would take about 5 hours and 50 minutes. Depending on the flight you get , the gas for the car ride would be just as much as the plane so why not just fly.

    The Hayward Fault

    The foothill dorm was the second spot we stopped at. We saw the outside of the dormitories and the bridge connecting both dormitories on both sides. The Foothill dormitory was made right on top of the Hayward fault. It was not built there on purpose but they did try to find the fault by digging up trenches, but sadly misunderstood it. This is a huge hazard for the buildings and for the students living in the dormitory. However, we saw how they took some in consideration of earthquakes and instead of building concrete walls around it, they built concrete floor on the foundation all under the dorm. They did this indoor to stop the swaying individually, but to make the whole dorm sway as one. This will stop the tearing and the disruption of the dorms and the foundations. Also we saw how the building were made of framed wood, meaning if there was to be an earthquake the building wouldn't collapse, but could potentially stay up.…

"Horticulture is the science and art of producing and utilizing food crops, turfgrass, nursery crops, and greenhouse grown ornamental crops" (Iowa State University of Science and Technology). The ground floor of the building was constructed to allow the delivery of horticultural supplies into the building, through the means of a passage-way directly through the middle of the building.

In 1928, the Botany Department moved in and the building was renamed Botany Hall. In 1968, the Botany Department relocated to another building and the Psychology Department took its place; the name of the building, however, did not change this time.…
