How to prepare, design and construct an igloo in Maryland?

My First Task
How are the blocks to be built? Will the igloo be safe enough to build?

Summary of actual work over first weekend
I did not get to do any work over the first weekend because i was not assinged to a team until Tuesday of the first week.'

Week1 Narrative
Week 1 i have spent most of the week learning how to use GoogleSketchUp. I am slowly getting a handle on how I am supposed to control the software. My goal by the end of this weekend is to have built a working model of an igloo in the GoogleSktechUp. I hope for it to be to scale and size.' i found a really interesting article that shows some requirements for igloos here

My Second Task
I am going to use GoogleSketchUp to make an accurate scale model of an igloo.

Summary of actual work over second weekend
How is what you did different than what you planned?

Week2 Narrative
what i did over the weekend was try to construct the igloo. i had some serious troubles trying to do this. what i did succeed at was building a foundation and base for the igloo, not to scale but smaller. then i ended up building a giant teepee by accident but i plan to use the construction base in order to try and construct a to scale igloo.

These are a series of screen shots i took while i was trying to make an igloo



My Third task
my weekend is going to be about trying to finish the 3D imaging using spirals in order to finish the 3D image.

Summary of actual work over third weekend
I had planned to use spirals in order to finish the 3D image of the igloo but i ended up very carefully building 2D blocks and placing them on the igloo.

Week3 Narrative
I have had trouble fleshing out the 3D image of the igloo. I was able to build a skeleton of an igloo but I had not been able to make it look like a real igloo until this weekend. Very carefully I had built many 2D blocks and placed them one on top of the other in order to build an igloo. I was even able to build an entrance to the igloo.



My Fourth task
I plan to work on the Project page by cleaning it up, making the poster, and generally making sure that our project will be easy to view and understand

Summary of actual work over fourth weekend
''I ended up mostly cleaning up our project page and trying to build a poster. I have come to realize that i am not an artist.''

Week4 Narrative
'What I did was i started by cleaning up the project page by trying to line up images with the texts that are supposed to go together. I also started with the poster by combining pictures together to show our basic materials and the results from those materials. ''

Fill out the Team Form (should have already copied the form, created the team page, linked to it and started filling it out).
