A real challenge: Build a ball of masonite!
Mini Courses - Fire and Ice
Students from Strömbacka School in Piteå visited the Department of Infrastructure Planning and Natural Resources today.
They could try a little of everything during the day. Mini courses are contained among other things, an acid test for models of wooden houses built in different woods. Brand development revealed huge differences in speed and development.
In IceLab research center snowballs tested with different hardness. The tests are related to structures in the Ice Hotel.
Within arkitetur built balls of masonite and rubber bands. Was also examined on laser cutter at work.
