totally forgot to post my original outline here it is
Project:
To learn about the types of composite materials and how they can be applied in Kamloops homes.
Method:
- learn about the most popular composite materials
- how these materials are made
- find out how they can be applied to Kamloops homes
- find out how much longer they will last compared to traditional materials
- find out if its cost effective
- find out if composite materials result in a greener way of looking at construction
Special Problems:
- finding a way to make composite materials affordable so they can be used more frequently in homes in Kamloops.
Also:
- all topics that I look at will be dealt with. I have no intensions of overlooking any questions at this point.

PROJECT OUTLINE
My research project will focus on how different types of materials effect concrete applications as well as how it affects its structure and weight.
METHOD: By determining how different materials and ratios of materials create different forms and uses for concrete.
1.) History – How long has concrete been around and where and how did it originate?
2.) Ingredients – see what materials concrete can be composed of.
3.) Application – see where certain materials can be used based on location of material.
4.) Structure – see how structure of concrete is affected by the different ingredients and ingredient ratios.
5.) Appearance – Consider applications where concrete can not only be used as a structural material but also for appearance.
SPECIAL PROBLEMS:
- climate / soil types and conditions / exposure to weather
ALSO:
1.) How can different types of concrete be considered more “Green” than others?
2.) Is there something better, greener, and more cost effective than concrete for structure that has been overlooked?
