Dear Senior Committee,

My name is Jason Hubbell and I am a senior in the John Muir 2011 graduating class. For my senior project I would like to study architecture of bridges to show and inform people on how they work and the physics they display.

My plan for doing this project is to use **Google sketch** to show the different structures and how the physics work on each different types of bridges. My audience will be on **Cyberfair**. I do not know who will my mentor will be at this moment.

By doing this project I will research all about how to draft and the math that go into making a bridge and by doing that I hope to get student and teachers too. to learn how to use the mathematics and physics it takes to make them. By the end of the project I would get a great inspiration to something new.

Sincerely,

Jason Hubbell








 * Essential Questions**

Why are bridges unnoticed by people?

Why does the world need bridges?

How are bridges considered architecture?

How are the best bridges built?

Anne: The third question is the most likely to be an easy one to write about. You might also consider which bridges in San Diego are the best architecturally and why. If you choose this one, your thesis would be....

Bridges are considered architecture because...

1. they are beautiful, , 2. they are strong enough to support loads, 3. they make life better for people using them.

and your introduction would be...

Background of bridges in the world and in San Diego. Three best and three worst San Diego bridges. What you have below... Good background... Thesis
