Engage in a fascinating STEM experiment kit that explores the engineering principles behind planning and developing buildings and structures. This kit enables you to play the role of architect and engineer as you piece together an array of models, from small, basic structural elements like trusses, arches, and domes, to giant complex models of real-world buildings. With 20 guided model builds, you can construct stadiums, skyscrapers, a Ferris wheel, and more. Through this hands-on experience, you'll develop an understanding of how architectural engineers apply scientific principles to their designs and how the buildings and structures of the 21st century push materials and engineering to the limits.
Soaring spires, towering arches, fascinatingly complex curves and angles - this kit allows you to build your foundation in Architectural design. The 44-page, full-color manual guides your journey while encouraging independent exploration. What is the tallest tower, the most voluminous dome, or the longest bridge you can build with the modular building pieces? How will you use what you learn to further your architectural journey?
The new flexible building pieces mimic steel frames, and all plastic building parts are compatible with other Thames & Kosmos engineering and physics kits. Explore the field of architectural design and learn about modern-day building materials. Suitable for ages 8 and up, this kit is a Parents' Choice Gold award winner.
Start with basic structures like trusses, arches, and domes, and move on to scaled-down models of real-world buildings. Engage your creativity and engineering skills as you play the role of both architect and engineer, constructing over 20 models of structural elements and real-world buildings. Unlock your imagination and push the boundaries of what you can create with this captivating STEM learning experience.
