Things to note from the test build

Eschewing the theoretical choices in material which I’ve already mentioned, the main revelation of the test build is to have a clean, prepared methodology towards how the structure is to be assembled. Erecting the walls first was a mistake, even if it seems obvious, and this in turn caused problems later on. First, the floor must be laid out, and taped flat. Following this, a centre point on the floor is to be identified. From this centre point, a circle centering on the centre point with a 2.35m radius needs to be taped onto the floor. Following this, the boards must be lifted into position in pairs, starting with the main door, facing the access door in the architecture block. Then, the boards can be fixed back together. The edges between the floor and the boards, and the boards themselves can then be taped over, and painted. The roof structure can then be placed over the top, with a plum line in the centre. The plum line must match the centre point of the installation. When it is correctly positioned, the mirror can be fixed into place. The two small boards acting as a corridor to block out the view of the rest of the room can be fixed, and the projector can then be tested. There are issues with the projector to be resolved, however the main objective of the exercise was to test how exactly I am going to create the structure, and I now have a clear, calculated method.
