Design Brief: To design and make the tallest tower. Context: Buildings and other structures are constructed in many shapes and sizes. Columns used in construction are also in many different shapes and sizes. The CN Tower, too has a distinct shape. The shape and size of these structures allow them to reach great heights. Possible Solutions: circles, triangles, squares, other polygons, slender, wide Design Constraints: The following are some constraints or limitations for this project:
Detail Design: The following are the steps to designing and making your tower:
Materials: sheet of paper, tape, rulers, and scissors. Commissioning: Were you successful in this project when you tried it out? Evaluation: Did this project work as you expected it to? Reflection: Did you enjoy this project? What were you most proud of? What would you do differently next time? |
