CBSE Science Fair Exhibition Project, “ Bridges –A Mathematical Approach” Theme “ Mathematics in Everyday Life” for Class 9, Class 10 and 12

Project Name : Bridges –A Mathematical Approach

 

Theme Name : Mathematics in Everyday Life

 

Our project provides an insight into the various factors affecting bridges. We have analyzed the different types of forces that act on bridges and how they affect the materials. We than discussed the various natural phenomena that affect bridges. Based on the type forces we analyzed the cost efficiency and durability of various materials used in construction of bridges and provided possible techniques to reinforce the structure against the various natural
phenomena. After exhibiting that the triangle is the strongest shape, we discussed the static indeterminacy of a standard Pratt Truss design, Sing Vectors and Matrices, and derived a formula to encompass all the equilibrium force distribution equations, into a single formula.
Later, we provided a demonstration showing that the triangular networking increases the load to weight ratio by 100 fold.
