Describe what physical characteristics make it ideal for the building material of bridge footings in an earthquake zone. Add a picture of your design that is made with this material. en-us 2023-04-02 04:01:26 UTC 2023-04-03 18:12:20 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-uploads.storage.googleapis.com/898916001/980d624acb8b100859588cb9e2f389aa/Screen_Shot_2023_04_01_at_11_13_11_PM.png https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542596006 We think that the Fimo clay would work best because it had a higher density than the other materials therefore it would be able to hold up the bridge best. ]]> 2023-04-03 18:10:54 UTC https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542596006 https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542596502 We think that the fimo clay will be best. It had the highest density out of all the materials so it will hold up the best. ]]> 2023-04-03 18:11:21 UTC https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542596502 https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542596974 we think that the white crayola clay is the best for building the bridge because it had the highest density, making its stronger, and it dried very hard and sturdy. ]]> 2023-04-03 18:11:45 UTC https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542596974 27mardizzone https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542597514 The blue material was what we found to be better for building a bridge. The main reason is because it is flexible. The density recorded was very low, meaning it is very malleable. This makes the clay able to take earthquake activity without snapping apart.]]> 2023-04-03 18:12:15 UTC https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542597514 https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542597609 We found the mass of all the three substances and built prototypes for the bridges. From the data we collected we found the fino clays mass was the highest meaning that it is probably going to be the strongest and hold up the best.]]> 2023-04-03 18:12:20 UTC https://padlet.com/sommervilled/2njn354dwncf9a8e/wish/2542597609
