Material:Bricks
Manufacture Process:
1.Clay Preparation: mix all materials with water 2. Molding the Clay: to have same shape and size
3. Drying the Bricks: dry the bricks in the kiln.
Reasons: 1. less cracking in fired bricks with less water content. 2. less fuel is needed when firing. 4. Firing the Bricks

STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS:How it works.Principles -The columns with concrete footings support a long canopy with internal downpipes in the middle of the columns,collecting rain from canopy.
Building system & process:-The columns and canopy are made of steels they are supported by concrete footings.And C-shape steels hold the canopy roof
Reasoning behind system choice:-Concrete is more sustainable while having compression than extension.SO it was chosen for making the footings.
Economic implications of decisions:-Concrete is cheap and easy to get.However steel needs to have more procedures to get this shape and color.
