School Closure - Information & Lessons Year 7, Structures work & tasks below for completion during school closure
In your structures booklet read page 4 and in the spaces draw 3 ‘preliminary design’ ideas for your bridge that meet the specification on page 3.
You must make sure your bridge design goes over the edges of the supports (sides of the river) which is 25 cm. It must be no higher than 18cm. Use your research in girder bridges to help you design your bridge. Add lots of triangulation…but….remember it must not be too heavy!
Good luck.

Play the animoto below....
Please view the presentation below which shows a range of examples of the Y10 Resistant Materials metal Padlock project. This project involves creating a padlock from a blank of aluminium which is accurately drilled and milled. The hasp is made from mild steel formed in a jig and threaded. The nut is brass which is turned and knurled (textured) on the centre lathe and then threaded. The whole product has to be accurate and attractive, the quality of work below illustrates good attention to detail and a high level of pride int the project.
The video below shows the padlock in use (one handed) and all its component parts
Below is a sketchup image of the aluminium blank with dimensions
Below is a slide show illustrating the production stages of the padlock step by step.
The video below shows the use of a bending jig. You will use this to create the hasp of the padlock. The jig means you can produce the same bend radius over and over again.
You will be using a centre lathe, a side view is shown below, you should know the names of the parts.
The video below shows the lathe skills you will be using to face off, centre drill, knurl and part.
Evaluation skills for the padlock project are highlighted in the slide show below.
