Test Supports
Test Supports
So the rules manual states that the test supports are 3.0 cm x 3.0 cm x 15.0 cm. And the standard for dimensions is l x w x h. If the manual is following this, that would mean the test supports are 15 cm high and only 3 cm x 3 cm. Do you guys think it's that high, or it's 15 cm long, 3 cm high, and 3 cm deep?
Re: Test Supports
Rule 5.e says "Test Supports must sit on one of the 15 cm long faces" Where exactly are these "15 cm long faces" on the Test Base ? I don't see anywhere that has a 15 cm dimension after laying out the CenterLine and the 35 cm Bearing Zone lines.>

4.b.i-test supports 3 x 3 x 15
Location of test supports is in 4.a.iv IE: 17.5 or 11.5 cm from the center line.

Maybe what happens when reading the rules too closely.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the test supports are the sicks used to stabilize the bucket.embokim wrote:so the bridge will sit on top of the test supports.

Yeah those are the bucket stabilization sticks, test supports are specific to non elevated bridges I believe.John Richardsim wrote:Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the test supports are the sicks used to stabilize the bucket.embokim wrote:so the bridge will sit on top of the test supports.

Re: Test Supports
I don't know if you have received the rules, but the bridge sits on top of test supports. There are also bucket stabilization sticks. Test support =/= bucket stabilization sticks.iwonder wrote:Yeah those are the bucket stabilization sticks, test supports are specific to non elevated bridges I believe.John Richardsim wrote:Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the test supports are the sicks used to stabilize the bucket.embokim wrote:so the bridge will sit on top of the test supports.
Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way you'll be a mile away and he'll be shoeless.
You should only create problems, that only you know solutions to.
