    This document describes experiments on structural models. It discusses 6 steps of experiments on different tower structures where additional weights were added at each step. The results show the original shape, slight deformation under load limits, steep deformation under redundant loads, and structure failure above load limits. Cross bracing helped stability but slenderness caused failure in Tower 1 and 2. The experiments tested structural behavior under increasing loads.

    ASSIGNMENT 1

    EXPERIMENTS

    RESULTS:
    Tower 1:failure Due To No Cross Bracing And
    Imaginary Centre Of Gravity

    Tower 2: Pros -Cross-linked Joints


    Cons- Too Slender

    RESULTS:
    This experiment is based on how in a cable stayed bridge the cables in tension transfer load to
    the bridge tower which grounds it to the foundation.
