Today we went over the new assessment. Mr Ward went over his planning for his trechubet and and how it is to work. There seem to be alot of ways in which to approach this unit, some trechubets are sturdied not on wheels but on an axel. However I think having wheels will make the trechubet more stable than if it were held by just a few wheels.
Ruby and I got to work on our planning and with images of trechubets open, I worked out a design for the framing of our catapult. I rember learning somewhere that triangles are the sturdiest shape to build a from so I took that Idea and made the framing of the trechubet many trianges. We worked on the height to length ratio also.
