EIFFEL TOWER

LOCATION

The Eiffel Tower is a landmark and an early example of wrought-iron construction on a gigantic scale in Paris,France .

DESIGNED BY-   It was designed and built by the French civil engineer Gustave Alexandre Eiffel for the Paris World’s fair of 1889.

 INSPIRED BY -Eiffel Tower is inspired by  Bamboo and bone as they are both natural Nano-engineered materials that use structural hierarchy to achieve their lightness and strength. The Eiffel Tower uses a similar idea. Eiffel  borrowed this notion from bamboo and bone, and put it to use on a colossal scale.

CONCEPT- The Eiffel tower is incredibly well optimized to do what it was designed to do, to stand tall and stand strong, while using a minimum of material.

The Eiffel tower was built with a  structure similar to that of the Thigh bone head. Tower was able to build the longest structure that was built in that period, with high strength and flexibility, using less steel material.

Eiffel tower’s beauty had to do with economy and structural efficiency, with achieving the greatest strength with the east possible material.
