Lesson Plan 1 (2022)

This lesson plan outlines a technology class on frame structures. The plan details the date, school, teacher, grade, subject, and duration of the lesson. The objectives are for students to define and differentiate between different frame structures like king post and queen post trusses. Students will learn to identify structural members, draw structural members, and understand structural forces like compression, tension, torsion, and shear. The lesson will involve defining frame structures, explaining structural members and forces through different steps, and concluding with a question and answer session. Assessment will involve a project, essay or presentation.

LESSON PHASES:
INTRODUCTION

DEVELOPMENT

step 1:
definition of frame structures: frame structure are structures with a frame, or a skeleton structure
can be covered in a skin or membrane or remain open. Examples Pylons, windmills, spider web
human skeleton, houses and many more. There are man-made frame structures (ladder, bicycle)
and natural frame structures (spider web, human skeleton)
step 2:
Many roofs are supported by frame structures called trusses. Trusses can be made of wood or
steel. Roof trusses are made to support the weight of the roof material such as roof sheet. The
different parts of a truss are called members. Each truss has a vertical member in the middle. This
is called a king post. King post truss has a single vertical post. The truss has a diagonal or slopy
member called rafters and a horizontal beam which joins the two rafters, it is called the beam
structure. Beam are included if the truss is likely to experience a great deal of force. King post
truss are suitable for roofs and bridges as they can deal with compression and tension forces.

Queen post Structure has two upright vertical post they also have structs, tie beam and rafters

Step 3:
Purpose of structural members
- Their purpose is to withstand forces and provide support
- Tie and structs withstand compression and tension forces
- The king and queen post withstand compression force
- Tie and struts provide external support because they are outside of the structure
Structural forces
- Compression these will squash the material, compression force pushes the edges to the
materials together. It is also called a pushing force (compressive force)
- Tension forces this force will make the material stretch. Tension force pulls the ends of the
materials apart. It is also called a pulling force (tensive force)
- Torsion these forces will make the material twist. Torsion force turn the ends of the material
in opposite directions. It is also called twisting force
- Shear these will make the material tilt. shear force will pull and push different parts of the
material in opposite direction at the same time.

CONSOLIDATION/LESSON CONCLUSION

The lesson would conclude with a question-and-answer session. These questions would recap the
important elements of the lesson and stimulate learner thinking. The following questions would be
asked:
