What an interesting session this evening.
We are starting a new topic which involves exploring structures. We talked about why a dandelion remained standing upright even when high winds had blown down fences, more about this next week.
We explored how to create a hexagon using a compass, and we built a large honeycomb which we then tested by standing on it. A really good introduction.
Tension and compression in a column was examined and our homework was to look up the word CONTRAFLEXURE and think why this could be relevant to a column under stress / loading.
