for this task we were required to use Photoshop to apply textures to our building using spec maps. below are screen shops of a textured i used to do this.
Then we were required to research 3 materials and find out how each martial is made and the life span of each one and what conditions will decade the materials pros and cons and the use of each material, my 3 materials are Steel, glass and concrete.
STEEL:
steel is made from iron with carbon being the primary alloying element, the life span of steel is all depending on the conditions and the steel, the conditions that will decade steel are wind and salt water as steel will rust and break up over a time. steel is a strong material and its pros will be that it is strong with tension nut its weak when it comes to compression.
GLASS:
glass is made from melted sand, lime and sodium as they get all melted together to form a hard clear material, glass doesn't really have a life span it all depending of how it is used and treated in its life,the conditions that will decade glass will be wind and areas where the weather is consent change, the pros and cons of glass is that it is a very sensitive material and if it not used right its very weak that is why glass needs rubber seals to hold it in place.
CONCRETE:
concrete is made from cement sand and water they mix the three together depending on how strong the concrete should be, concrete hardens over time the average time span of concrete is about 30-40 years in a high condition change areas, concrete can decade by weather change water movement damaged that is done physically and by weight, the pros and cons of concrete, concrete can hold a lot of pressure and its very good with compression but doesn't hold as good when under tension
this weeks lecture was quiet interesting to see examples of how different materials are and how each material will be affected under different conditions its helped me understand how materials work and how they can decade and break and to see how the materials look like once they are damaged.
CONCRETE:
concrete is made from cement sand and water they mix the three together depending on how strong the concrete should be, concrete hardens over time the average time span of concrete is about 30-40 years in a high condition change areas, concrete can decade by weather change water movement damaged that is done physically and by weight, the pros and cons of concrete, concrete can hold a lot of pressure and its very good with compression but doesn't hold as good when under tension
