EXPERIMENT
HERE’S HOW
Count the numbers of different shapes in the wrought-
iron tower model. How many circles can you find? How
many squares? How many arches?
A tower of shapes
WHAT’S HAPPENING
The model you built resembles the Eiffel Tower in Paris,
France. Your model is made of flexible plastic rods, but the
actual tower is made of iron. The flexible plastic rods help
you understand how all the shapes in the tower’s structure
work together to hold it up and make it stable. A single
flexible plastic rod could not stand up without bending
and over. The same is true for the iron rods in the real Eiffel
Tower. From its wide stable base to its thinner top, the
iron frame of the actual Eiffel Tower has thousands of
triangular shapes in trusses keeping it stable.
In architecture, an elevation is
a diagram of a building
shown directly from the side.
A plan diagram shows
everything behind a certain
cross-section sliced vertically
through the building.
