I am making scale model buildings and need help! fast please?!?!?
hi i am making scale model buildings for my skill fair. they need to be strong enough to be expert to be built but week enough to show dammage if i were to burgeon something at it. Right now i am using 3 desings. bite the bullet frame design, shear immure design, and a tube frame sketch out. i was thinking for the shear i would only use foam walls about an inch thick with no metal or anything becuase shear walls desings are supported by their walls. I do not be acquainted with what to do for the other 2 designs like what materials to use etc... please react quickly i really need labourers
they models are going to be 30 inches lanky, hopefully about 30 floors.
It will be profound to get something to match a steel frame, I-beams, so you will have to acquire them out of paper or light cardboard. For tubes you can use soda straws. One inch froth walls would be pretty strong if the model is only 30 inches preposterous. For 30 stories each floor would be only one inch exalted. You have chosen a pretty difficult scheme as the size of the building will be difficult to do with existing materials. Also, shooting something at the buildings doesn't impersonate much of an engineering test as you can't hit the buildings the same way. What would work would be to beget a shear force at the top of each building to describe the resistance to shear. But again the scale of the structural members will not be hard-headed unless you can find materials of the right weight. For example you could build a tube draw up that was much stronger than the shear wall structure just because of what materials you have to work with.
