The test says that I must draw a illustration of a material to a building, and that I must write down some properties to the material that I choose. I don't know exactly what material that I should choose. I was just wondering on which material that I should choose. If anybody have any ideas that will be great!

hi Persuader.

thank you for making it more clear, although i still didn't know exactly what u need, but i will give it a try and do my best. i hope i'm correct and i can be helpful.

if its the way i think it is.

the best way is to start with either choosing a building u really like. or a material your interested and feel you want to work with.

if its building, then you have to see what its made of and do a research on the materials. if its material, you have to search for a good example where it is used.

to start with tell me which u will choose and maybe i can help you when u reach the second stage, i might be able to help if u choose materials like concrete, steel or glass.

wood, i dont think i will be much of help.

or if u have a building u already chose, tell me the name of the building and we will see what materials were used in the construction.

best of luck
