Students are asked to recalculate the bolt diameters and plate thickness under a new scenario in which the pole is assumed to undergo impact due to a collision with a truck. Using an equivalent static force V = 400 Kip as per AASHTO 201010 that represents an isolated special load of truck collision at the bottom of the post, students were required to design the number and diameter of anchor bolts based on a the equivalent direct lateral shear strength resisted by the bolt cross sections (Figure 2e), and the plate thickness using similar reasoning as above.

Research has shown Makerspaces as sources of multidisciplinarylearning, a blending of communities of practice with formal learning, and finally that the depthof learning is in the making. While the research points to the values of making in general, andspecifically making in museum makerspaces, there seems to be little research on family making,and how museums can encourage family making. This research hopes to bridge both these gapsby studying the importance of family making and its relevance in children's museums.Data has been collected over the last 3 years from the New York and Bay Area flagship MakerFaires with sets of interviews with approximately 32 Young Makers and the parents of YoungMakers.
