Kanzala Roof Truss Model

1/23/2015

0 Comments

 
While Johann was building bamboo roof trusses for OSA Conservation in Costa Rica, Sam and Ethan were designing roof trusses for Kanzala Mennonite Church in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Johann will travel there in February to participate in the rebuilding and supervise the roof truss construction. To help us visualize the truss connections, Sam built this 1:40 scale model out of Popsicle sticks and Elmer's glue. Our elementary school skills are being put to good use!
