Assignment 3: Designing a Thrilling Skateboard Ramp/Half-Pipe Objective: Design and describe an innovative skateboard ramp/half-pipe that combines unique features, technical skill requirements, and safety considerations. Task Requirements: 1. Research existing skatepark designs to identify key elements, such as transitions, coping, and ledges. 2. Sketch and visualize your design concept using computer-aided design (CAD) software or traditional drawing tools. 3. Write a detailed description of your design, including the following components: * Transition profiles: Describe the shape and size of the ramp's transition zones, including any features such as "ditch" transitions. * Coping: Specify the type of coping material used, its thickness, and how it will be attached to the ramp. * Ledges: Detail the design and placement of ledges, including their height, width, and angle. 4. Consider safety factors: * Egress routes: Describe the pathways that skateboarders can use to exit the ramp in case of an emergency. * Impact zones: Specify areas where a skateboarder may land if they fall from the ramp, and design these areas to minimize injury risk. 5. Technical skill requirements: Outline the skills necessary for skateboarders to navigate your designed ramp/half-pipe. Submission Requirements: 1. Include 3D models or drawings of your design. 2. Write a clear and concise description of your design concept. 3. Address safety considerations in your submission. Grading Criteria: 1. Creativity and originality of the design (30 points) 2. Technical skill requirements and difficulty level (20 points) 3. Safety features and emergency egress routes (20 points) 4. Clarity and coherence of written description (15 points) 5. Quality and accuracy of 3D models or drawings (15 points) Submission deadline: [Insert Date] Note: Please ensure your submission is in a PDF format, with clear and readable text and images.
