Mola Structural Kit 3

Mola Structural Kit 3 - Practical Structural & Architectural Modeling for real-life analysis

Probably the most realistic construction toy in the market today, Mola is an interactive physical model that simulates the behavior of architectural structures. Including a set of modular pieces easily combinable with magnetic assemblers, with Mola you can translate paper plans into reliable 3D scale models that will obey the laws of nature just like a real life building would.

The Mola Structural Kit 3 is focused on Cable behavior, with technical factors such as Cable Tension or Cable length possible to customize to your needs, and including the most relevant types of connections used in real life. With this kit, you can build Suspension Bridges and Hanging Structures that behave just like they would to external and internal forces.

With Mola Kits, you can build different structural systems, visualize the movements and deformations of their elements, and have a sensory and proven experience of structural behavior using your own hands, which is essential for Architects and Engineers, particularly in the conception phase of a project.

As a perfect introduction to this professional tool, you can have a glimpse of all the possibilities of Mola Structural Kit 3 in their Manual Book (also included in the kit) in online version, here: https://molamodel.com/pages/book-manual-mola-3

Mola Structural Kit 3 works independently from Mola Structural Kit 1 and Mola Structural Kit 2, with which you could put it together to create many other structures. None of these models require prior technical knowledge for you to start studying structures, plus it is easy to assemble and use by magnetic grip, and includes very precise instructions and examples in the Manual Book included. It is made simple and instinctive and is applicable to both professionals and students, as well as anyone interested in the subject, which has made it the most supported project on Kickstarter

Price already includes Brazilian duties and importation paid.

This qualitative analysis tool can be used as a resource to conventional methods of study, conception and verification of structures. If you are studying Civil Engineering or Structural Behavior, or are an Architect, this is a great way of answering many of the questions that are hard to picture only on paper or theory or through elaborate computer designs.
