Investigation A

For my technology project I will be making a gate which would be cheap, modern, useful, practical.As I saw the way people build their gates in ger district isn’t very practical and gates are made of bad material like; damaged wood, old metal slices, robber, plastic and material like that. Gates aren’t stabled with strong posts; usually the posts are made of old wood. Since I am doing this project in Mongolia I will try to make it more to Mongolian side traditionally and materially. I am not Mongolian so I will research for different designs to come up with the best one for Mongolian ger district situation. Also I will look forward for people who will use it so that they would use it with comfort.

The gates which I will design will be very cheap because of the material I will use to it. One of materials I am going to use is metal which mainly used for fences. It’s not going to cost a lot but the final view will be great. Materials I am going to use are very basic and can be found in any country. But the cost of materials I am going to use in different countries different. If people have enough money for wooden fence than they will have enough money for the gate I am planning to design.

My fence will be very simple in design and easy to build at the place where to place them. Materials you need are three cladding rolls each 2 meters, special hummer, special construction nails which are suitable for the hummer.

I will check my product on the computer by making the same design and proportions and putting it on to program called “phun”

Design of this gate is:

· Two 3meter metal posts on the sides.

· One 3meter post one meter away from one of the side post.

· In front two slices of cladding, 2 meter high and 1.5 meter weight each.

· On the back on each sides small metal sticks attached to each slice.

· Frame which holds everything together.

· I will show u on the diagram.
