3. In 1931 the empire state building became the tallest building in the world. At 1,250 feet tall it broke the thousand –foot mark – the construction industry’s equivalent of shattering the sound barrier – and produced astonishment throughout the commercial construction world.

4. Bill Starlett was the commercial contractor of the empire state building and was in charge of its actual construction.

5. Today, you can’t enter a building, drive down a road, and ride a train or subway even use a manufactured product without experiencing the result of some commercial construction company’s effort.

Facts – 

1. As the principal application of aerodynamics is the design of aircraft, air is the gas with which the science is most concerned

2. Drag and lift are two aerodynamic forces acting on any body traveling through the air whether it's an airplane, car, or truck.

3. The coefficient of drag is a measure of how easily a vehicle slides through the air

4. There are three basic forces to be considered in aerodynamics: thrust, which moves an airplane forward; drag, which holds it back; and lift, which keeps it airborne.

5. Lift is generally explained by three theories: Bernoulli's principle, the Coanda effect, and Newton's third law of motion.

6. Above speeds of Mach .7 the air flowing over the wing accelerates above the speed of sound, causing a shock wave (also known as asonic boom) as the airplane compresses air molecules faster than they can move away from the airplane

7. The aerodynamics elements in the cars are tested in wind tunnels. After thorough testing, final production starts.

8. Small planes can take off at slower speeds than F1 cars travel on the track. However, the downforce provided by their wings keeps them on the track.

9. The car wings can produce amazing aerodynamic downforce. When a car is traveling over 160 kph, it car can generate enough downforce to hold itself to the ceiling of a tunnel and drive upside down.

10.All objects in the air are subject to two types of airflow, laminar and turbulent

Facts –

1.  Perspective Drawing is a technique used to represent three-dimensional images on a two-dimensional picture plane.

2.  For 500 years, perspective drawing remained one of the basic principles of Western art until it was challenged by the ideas of the Cubists at the start of the 20th century.

3.  Engineering drawing (the activity) produces engineering drawings (the documents). More than just the drawing of pictures, it is also a language—a graphical language that communicates ideas and information from one mind to another.

4.  Engineering drawing and artistic drawing are both types of drawing, and either may be called simply "drawing" when the context is implicit.

5.  Leonardo was both a perfectionist and a procrastinator.

6.  Painting is direct application of pigment to a surface to produce by tones of colour or of light and dark some representation or decorative arrangement of natural or imagined forms.

7.  In ancient Greece and medieval Europe most buildings and sculptures were painted; nearly all of the ancient decoration has been lost, but some works from Egypt have preserved their colouring and give us an insight into the importance such an art can assume

8.  Sculpture is art of producing in three dimensions representations of natural or imagined forms

9.  Sculpture has been a means of human expression since prehistoric times. The ancient cultures of Egypt and Mesopotamia produced an enormous number of sculptural masterworks, frequently monolithic, that had ritual significance beyond aesthetic considerations (see Egyptian art; Assyrian art; Sumerian and Babylonian art; Hittite art and architecture; Phoenician art).
