Testing Stability in DT
Posted: Jan 13, 2023 by: A White (awhite) on: Year 2 Class Blog
We have hit the ground running in Year 2 since the holidays and have started this week on our new DT project for this half term. We will be designing and making a chair for baby bear!
Our first task was to test the stability of different 3D shapes which linked really well with our maths learning this week. We tested the stability of a sphere, a cube, a pyramid and a cylinder. We found that the pyramid was the most stable because it had a flat base, a wide base and wasn't too tall. We then used this information to analyse some different examples of chairs and how suitable they would be for baby bear. This will help us when it comes to our designing and making stages.
