Re: What are the competition pyramid dimensions?
Q. There seems to be discrepancy between the Autodesk CAD model and drawings of the pyramid (pulled from the game arena file). Specifically, the drawings show that the rungs (1,2,3) are all 30” apart in the vertical, and at a consistent 68 degrees from horizontal. The CAD model shows that the first two rungs (1,2) are also 30” apart in the vertical, and 68 degrees from horizontal, but the inconsistency is in the third rung. The third rung is depicted higher than 30” - not at the joint of the 68 degree angled bar and the vertical section of the pyramid - but several inches above on the vertical bar. This changes the angle and climbing plans. Has anyone else seen this, or does anyone have a concrete source that we can trust to design around? Thanks –
A. Per Section 2.1, the FIELD drawings published by FIRST are the official source for all dimensions.
