Esquisse one - Triangulation

For esquisse one, students are required to construct a five (5) sided pyramid 100 x 100 x 100mm, using only 1mm wire and balsa wood (no glue or fixings).

To build the pyramid according to the given measurement, one needs to calculate the geometry correctly. Below is the calculation that i have done for the pyramid.





Before constructing the pyramid model, i constructed a mock model using carboard to give myself a better understanding of the pyramid construction.







Below is the completed model constructed using balsa wood and wire
