Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a scenario where a building project faced significant delays due to substandard materials. Analyze the role of testing and standardization in preventing such failures.

💡 Hint: Think about the integration of tests throughout the project lifecycle.

Question 2

A new standard is proposed for a material that weakens over time due to environmental factors. Discuss how engineers could adapt their testing protocols to account for this.

💡 Hint: Consider the importance of understanding material behavior over time.
