Objective The objective of the project is to build a truss that would be able to take a specific amount of downward force remarkably with respect to the weight of the truss itself‚ i.e. to construct a truss that would hold a relatively high efficiency score. And construct the bridge in such a way to as to keep the deflection of the structure at minimal. Introduction First of all‚ what is a truss? In an engineering view‚ a truss is a structure that is made up of series of triangular unit made

a Principles of Engineering final. I failed to grasp the concepts of many things we learned so when the final came around‚ I was certain I would fail. This idea was embedded in my mind‚ and I figured no amount of studying would help me understand trusses or kinematics‚ so I chose not to study. But with one week to spare‚ I thought I would try to understand. I stayed after school on multiple occasions with Mr. Fitz or Mr. Melograna. I also sought help from some of my friends‚ and ended up discussing

Ancient Egyptian Technology Introduction Most of Ancient Egypt was in a River Valley. In its earliest days it would have resembled a mock version of Sumer and Akkad. However‚ Ancient Egypt developed into a more individual and independent civilisation and soon came to be one of the most powerful forces. Location Egypt is located in the far-northern part of Africa. The country covers roughly an area about 386‚000 sqaure miles. [See Image 1 & 2] Climate Egyptian life was shaped

Balls Bridge and Truss Bridges: A Brief Historical Overview Nathan Holth Foreword: I composed this brief and informal overview of truss bridges and Balls Bridge to put this beautiful historic bridge ’s history and significance into context. A version of this document with full-color photos is available on my website ’s Balls Bridge Page located at www.historicbridges.org/ontario/balls/index.htm which also has more information and photos.

foundation" for judgment (e.g.‚ 60‚ 99‚ 151). But that must be an understatement. One might think to connect it with Abela’s reading of the Axioms of Intuition and Anticipations of Perception (115-39). There‚ Kant is said to be concerned with highly "indeterminate" judgments which Abela equates with empirical intuitions regarding the extensive and intensive magnitude of sensations (viewed as modifications of one’s sense organs). But there is no epistemic priority here: "the product of these judgments

NEGLIGENT MISSTATEMENT Main issue: Is the P likely to succeed in an action under the tort of negligence misstatement against the D? Sub-issue 1.1: Duty of Care (NO 3RD PARTY) Law/App: The tort of negligent misstatement was effectively established since the case of (Hedley Byrne v Heller). Law stipulates that there must be a special relationship (an extension of “neighbour principle” established in Donoghue v Stevenson) for between P and D for a DOC to rise in the tort of negligent misstatement:

As a stunningly beautiful work of art‚ "The Lover"‚ by Marguerite Duras‚ realistically and profoundly exposes the astonishing harmonization and clashing dissonance of love‚ sexuality and antagonism‚ memory and forgetfulness‚ emotions of happiness and dolefulness‚ and certitude of being desired. Memoirs of Marguerite Duras‚ as a reworking of the childhood in Indochina‚ intensely flowed out from her heart‚ artistically delineated into her novel and inextricably‚ bounded together and entwined with the

In chapter 12 we explore the artistic development in Architecture. When conceptualizing a building architects incorporate three things: function‚ form‚ and structure. Function is how the building will be used‚ form is how the building looks‚ and structures is how the building remains standing. Architects need to design structures that hold up under any combination of three physical forces; compression‚ tension‚ and bending. To days architects have a plethora of materials at their disposal‚ they benefit

A box truss fuselage structure can also be built out of wood—often covered with plywood—as can be seen on this Ibis canard fuselage. Simple box structures may be rounded by the addition of supported lightweight stringers‚ allowing the fabric covering
