PROCESS

Our model consists of two triangles: one hollow, with 4 notches to provide unique, easily adjustable positions for our variations, and one solid and longer, in order to create a more extreme configuration.
We were interested in triangles because of the interesting challenges they pose in terms of balance due to their sharp points and unequal weight distribution. Additionally, using triangles allowed us to change the Number of points of contact with base, making arrangements and their corresponding tensile forces more distinctive.
