    5 the Tower… Made of Iron and Rivets

    FOLLOW GUS! Children’s tour of the Eiffel Tower – Pedagogical file 5 The Tower… made of iron and rivets Industrialization During the 19th century progress made in the world of metallurgy brought along industrial development. Manufacturing iron and steel enabled to build railways (railway tracks and engines), factories, stations, bridges, markets, department stores. From the second half of this century, engineers such as Eiffel became very knowledgeable in the use of metallic frameworks and structures that are lighter than stone or concrete. 1803: Construction of the Pont des Arts in Paris, in cast iron. 1853: Construction of the Paris covered market with a metallic structure that adds beauty to the building. The Pompey factory An iron Tower The Eiffel Tower is made of puddled iron. This type of iron is obtained by mixing liquid hot iron and the result is iron of a fibrous texture obtained through the dissociation of carbon and impurities from the cristallographic structure. Hammering and rolling complete the preparation of this highly resistant iron. All of these operations were carried out in factories set up near the iron mines, especially in the Lorraine region. The project is accurate to the millimetre In Eiffel’s workshops, some twenty engineers and thirty designers made 5,329 drawings that enabled about one hundred workers to assemble the various metallic parts in the workshops located in Levallois-Peret (West of Paris) as early as June 1887. These metallic parts measured between just a few millimetres for the rivets and various metres for the puddled iron beams manufactured in the steelworks of Pompey, in the Lorraine department.

    The Public Face of the Royal Canadian Air Force: The Importance of Air Shows and Demonstration Teams to the R.C.A.F. For History 394 A02 Dr. Timothy Balzer An Essay by Luke F. Kowalski V00738361 April 1st, 2013 1 For almost as long as Canada has had an air force, it has had demonstration flyers displaying the skill and daring required to be a pilot. From the first formation flight in 1919 on, demonstration teams have played an important role in keeping the Royal Canadian Air Force engaged and interacting with the Canadian public.1 Examining the history of R.C.A.F. air show participation and demonstration flying reveals that Canadian demonstration teams regularly faced adversity and criticisms, such as being too expensive or having ulterior motives, despite the fact that they have provided many important services and benefits to the R.C.A.F. This paper will argue that R.C.A.F. participation at air shows is not only an important way to demonstrate the skill and professionalism of the force, but also a significant part of public relations and a vital recruiting tool. For these reasons, today’s 431 Squadron Snowbirds are an integral part of the Canadian Forces. Rather than relying on secondary sources, this paper’s argument will primarily be supported by the information drawn from three oral history interviews conducted by the author of this paper. This is because reliable sources on the topic of Canadian air shows and demonstration flying is limited, and, as military historian Edward M. Coffman points out, if you want information “you must seek it among the impressions which can be obtained only from those who have lived a life amid particular surroundings.”2 The three interviewees are Major General Scott Eichel (Ret’d), former base commander and Chief Air Doctrine officer;3 Lieutenant 1 Dan Dempsey, A Tradition of Excellence: Canada's Air Show Team Heritage, (Victoria, B.C.
