Technology Project 1

Yesterday I did my first tech project, I had a lot of fun with it. The project focused on the strength of an I-beam compared to the strength of a “cardboard sandwich.” I found that after a series of tests the I-beam was much stronger, my tests consisted of positioning my beam across to tissue boxes like a bridge and then placing quarters in the middle of them. The results were, as I said before, the I-beam was way stronger I think this was because the I-beam was supported through the entire beam when the “cardboard sandwich” was only supported on the ends. Overall I had a bunch of fun and my favorite part was that I was able to build something cool with materials I have lying around my house!
