TinkerCAD Simulation, PowerPoint Building on skills developed in 'Introduction to Tinkercad' and 'Frame Structures in Tinkercad', this tutorial introduces Sim Lab, Tinkercad’s physics simulation tool. It guides students step by step through testing 3D models using real-world physics such as gravity, compression and tension. By applying different materials and loads to structures, students can explore forces, material properties and structural behaviour in a visual, interactive way, supporting links to science and maths within D&T.
TinkerCAD Frame structures, Tinkercad Frame StructuresPowerpoint Building upon the skills learnt in the Introduction to Tinkercad, this tutorial takes you step by step through the process of creating simple frame structures. This links to the new POAP document ‘Frame Structures using CAD’ and provides the skills to explore physics in the Tinkercad Simulation tutorial.
