Post a short discussion on the significance and history of either steel or wood as a building material. You may choose to focus on economical, technical (structural or otherwise), constructability, or architectural advantages. Choose a precedent building to support your discussion and discuss how the primary material is appropriate for the building.
Your initial response should be at least 250 but not more than 350 words. Discussion groups will be assigned automatically. After each student in your group has responded, make one comment in the discussion to reinforce or dispute a point in their response.
Use the library and internet to conduct your research and prepare your post. A good reference for basic building data is emporis.com. Cite all references.
After completing this activity, students will be able to:
Recognize how materials have been used historically.
Give examples of the structural system used in a precedent building.
Post a short discussion on the significance and history of either steel or wood
