Overview

Read the introduction, objectives and theoretical background to the project and then answer the following questions:
- What main theory or concept is the project based on?
Ans: The main idea of this project is to construct a balsa wood model that incorporates concepts like principles of building and construction trades, engineering and physics. It is a simple model representing a real water tower where majoring in structural engineering is important. Not only is the designing important, but the welfare of the people must be put in the first place.

- What do you already know about this theory or concept?
Ans: Gravity is the force of pulling matter to the core of earth and other planets.
The design is important to have a bigger base to secure the foundation whilst it narrows towards the top to make it more stable, for example, in a pyramid. Engineering was comprising of construction and electronics.
