AIR TOWER.

OBJECTIVE: In this design I have depicted a  tall skyscraper having a system installed in it to protect it specifically from being shaken or pulled down by winds. ENGINEERING DRAWINGS: DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS: The design consists of a series of large circular (slightly curved downwards from the center) plates placed onto each other having many wind channels or air ducts as shown in figure 2. The circular plates actually consists of air ducts built only over each top floors (as the wind blows harder as it reaches the height) of the building. As shown in figure there is a room like structure made in the center of these circular plates to which ducts or channels are connected. And through these air ducts and channels air enters the room and exits into other opposite ducts or channels to be passed out from the building.  As a rule; a moving air acts like a blanket or a sheet i.e; if one molecule of air experiences drift then others in contact too. For example ; if air fro

AQUA TOWER.

OBJECTIVE: In this design ; I have depicted a tall skyscraper with a system already installed in it to prevent it from the risk of being shaken up or pulled down by strong winds or any seismic activity / disturbance. ENGINEERING DRAWINGS: DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS: The design consists of a large central tapering tube i.e; it becomes narrower as it reaches the height. The tube is filled with water and compressed air. As natural the air stays atop of the tube.  The tube is attached to the internal walls of the building by means of a system composed of springs , cables and bars.  As the air bubble inside a "surface level" equipment always stays atop and provides information about elevation of the surface. Along with this the air bubble also exerts pressure on the molecules of the liquid and through that liquid to the walls of the containing tube in a "surface level" equipment. As obvious the pressure exerted in case of a single bubble in a "sur

SPINAL BRIDGE.

OBJECTIVE: In this design I have depicted a suspension bridge that is able to be suspended from a single steel cable passing through the center of the bridge. ENGINEERING DRAWINGS: DESIGN SPECIFICATIONS: It consists of a large rectangular steel block (figure 5.) having a hole through which cable can be passed.  It consists of a structure (figure 1.) connected to these rectangular steel blocks.  Aerial view of the bridge is shown in figure 3.  The reason why this bridge is called spinal bridge is the key point of the design. Just how our ribs transfer the load of our upper body to spinal cord and the spinal cord lifts that load. Similarly the structure shown in figure transfers the load of the bridge to the rectangular steel blocks. For example; take a long flexible pipe (like nowadays PVC pipes) and pass a rope all the way through it. Two men standing on the either sides of the pipe will be holding the rope coming out from the pipe. Give a little. As a natural
