I know that that the shape of materials can be changed to improve the strength and stiffness of structures.
I know that axles are used in structures and mechanisms to make parts turn in a circle. Challenge: I know that the three main parts of a windmill are called the turbine, axel and structure. |
Structures – Shell structures
To recognise how multiple shapes (2D and 3D) are combined to form a strong and stable structure.
I can construct a range of 3D geometric shapes using nets.
Challenge: I can explain why I have joined a material in a specific way.
