Thames & Kosmos STEM Kit Structural Engineering reviews
Product details
Product description
Stem construction engineering kit: ever wondered how skyscrapers can be built so tall and how they stay upright? Structural engineers use their knowledge of physics and the properties of structural materials and geometric shapes to design structures with strength and stability.
with this kit of modular building blocks, you can complete a series of 20 models building experiments, learning the basics of structural engineering.
each model demonstrates a basic principle of mechanics, physics or structural engineering in a practical way.
Start with small models that demonstrate how structural elements can be interconnected to maximize the strength of a structure for a fixed amount of material used.
Learn about basic structural elements, including columns, beams, plates, springs, shells, and catenaries.
Explore forces like tension, compression, shear, and bending on structural components.
Move on to building more complex scissor trusses, roofs, and small building models.
Try different types of bridge construction: truss bridge, arch bridge, cantilever bridge, string bridge and suspension bridge.
finally, build models of majestic skyscrapers.
what is the tallest tower you can build using the pieces in the kit? Learn about the strength and hardness of materials.
See how structural engineers optimize factors to maximize safety and minimize cost and the risk of structural failure.
a 36-page full-color manual guides you to create the model with step-by-step picture instructions.
kit includes 323 pieces, 20 experiments, and an instruction manual.
