The egg was dropped from several different heights onto both grass and concrete. From a structural perspective, the packaging was highly successful as the egg did not break.
Week 4: In Class Activity
This week we were given the task of creating packaging which would be used to contain an egg. The egg would then be dropped from height and the packaging would have to prevent it from breaking. The materials that were used were cardboard, double sided tape, paper and string.
The design for the egg packaging was based around the use of a cube. The cubes dimensions were around 15cm each side. A hollow cylinder was secured inside the cube that would contain the egg. The idea was that the outsides of the cube would provide some padding for the egg whilst the cylinder would keep the egg suspended inside the cube and safe from harm. Some extra paper decorations and colourful designs were then added (Not by me haha).
