25. ~ Civil Engineering ~

Howdy, Reader !

It’s been declared that every Wednesday (for six weeks straight), the year seven and eights has the opportunity to do engineering up in the hall.

This (physical) learning could potentially be useful for future ado, since Engineering is a J*b. That would be handy in the future. Amongst all the architects, working as an engineer allows you to earn a lot of cash– and learning about engineering now is a big opportunity in my opinion.

Things Of What We’ve Done

Lucy, one of the engineers who first introduced herself first, is an experienced Civil Engineer; She taught us the various things of engineering and what types are there — mainly on the civil choreograph terms. We’re focusing on bridges using different types of materials. There were four groups and four stations, here’s a picture of what it looks like.

Here’s a picture of what Me and two other friends have worked on.

What My Group Worked On

Using bamboo chop-sticks, we’ve followed what famous Leonardo Da Vinci has designed when he was active — without using any tape nor glue. It depended on the tension; using a tutorial on how to do so. The image above shows the proof that I’ve completed the assigned task to make a bridge using tension- it shows that it’s secured, as you can see it’s holding up a box filled with pencils.

Hereby is a picture of what the other group built using the wired cables. Team-Work is truly the DreamWork!

The tables behind that massive constructed bridge were the station that had each 4 workshops that made their bridge that could hold things using different materials. (One was paper, the other ones were paper straws and the one I did was using bamboo chopsticks as I’ve explained. The one in the image is using almost similar things to what the real engineers use)

Thank you for reading!
