Materials Testing 2
Students consider how materials need to be tested for their suitability for a specific job before engineers in construction projects can choose them. The tasks will ask the students to think about what properties need to be considered, how these might be scientifically tested, and how other considerations concerning the design of a product might influence the choice of which material is best for the job.
