Crane Strain Activity:
Research Ideas: Google will be used in the process of searching for ideas.
4.) Specify Constraints and Criteria:
Constraints: Time and space, maybe gravity.
Criteria: The structure must have a 3x3 crain tower and a boom that may hold the given weight.
5.) Consider Alternative Solutions:
Select Approach: I aim to use the
7.) Develop Proposal: In this project I aim to create a crane strain that holds a great amount of weight. This design seems to be effecient and durable enough to hold an abundant amount of weight,
Refine/Improve: If the structure happens to be demolished, we may create more supports to the design.
11.) Create Product:
12.) Communicate Results: The structure was made by the process of calculating supports and booms for holding the weight. Wood will mainly be the material used to create said crane, and the others are minor supports. The boom is to hold the weight that will be held by the hook. Whilst the tower is to hold the whole structure at the other side of the boom.
