While working on the bridge‚ I was asking how do congruent structures give strength to bridges in real life? I think congruent structures give strength to the bridge because triangles have their rigid shape and strength. Unlike a square‚ that can shift into a parallelogram when force is applied to one of its sides‚ an equilateral triangle’s sides and angles are fixed. For example‚ triangles have beam which are the rigid shapes that helps the abutments of the bridge. When triangles supports the abutments

PROFESSIONAL RESPONSIBILITY: THE ROLE OF ENGINEERING IN SOCIETY S.P. Nichols and W.F. Weldon Center for Electromechanics‚ The University of Texas at Austin‚ USA Keywords: professional responsibility‚ engineering ethics‚ engineering responsibility. Abstract We argue that the practice of engineering does not exist outside the domain of societal interests. That is‚ the practice of engineering has an inherent (and unavoidable) impact on society. Engineering is based upon that relationship with society

Is Ethics an Alien word to the engineering profession? “The decisions and actions of engineers have a profound impact on the world we live in‚ and society at large” [The Royal Academy of Engineering] and are generally responsible for the way life is on earth due to their key part in discovering innovative technologies throughout the past. However in recent years the engineering profession has come under scrutiny with regards to its ethical stance. Ethics is certainly not an alien word in the United

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

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
