According to, For Entry to University and College, the structure acts as a base for the students to recreate markedly on the hot days as denotable from the freshmen. It allows the students to skate, walk, and even cycle at the vicinity; furthermore, the location of the structure creates a splendid walkway on and off along the campus especially in the winter periods and even towards the engineering mall. The structure has had it challenges in equal measures despite the marvelous attraction and praise.
Consistent with, A University of Tradition: The Spirit of Purdue, the threat exposed by the structure to small children is quite insurmountable to warrant its operations. For instance, in April 2001, the structure had stalled for some periods. It even attracted the attention of the administration to the extents of even rethinking of laying fences around the structure. Massive pressure created by the water jets continually knocked children on the along the structure thus inhibiting or even concealing the rather finely designed and projected engineering work.
The local people however permitted their children to get jovial around the structure, but this was to conducted under supervision of an older person, for instance their parents. While the structure was excellently designed, personally I feel that it does not meet the thresholds for safety. Possibly, the location or even design architecture had gross errors. In any engineering or artwork safety comes first. Probably redesign of the structure could restore the desires of the initial creator. The conspicuously high pressure is inconsistent and inapplicable to the ambience habituated by children.
Possibly, design of a small obstacle or fences around it could probably reassure the essence of the structure. The implementers of the design did a laudable job by using long term existing materials including concrete and blocks (Pipes, 2003). Landmarks similar to the ‘Engineering fountain’ are susceptible to the erosion factors, rain and water being the chief causatives of the wide spanning corrosion conditions. The choice of the blocks ascertains the durability anticipated by the initial designers of the structure thus exposing the envisaged long existence.
Goods application of cement and quality exhibits unnatural strength in the material structure as notable from the pyramids of Egypt and the highly erected quality expands the established feature for the far based visibility of the structure. At night, the highly adorn lights paints the section under which the projects sits sparkling cream appearance that even adds to the already outstanding form to expound on the beauty. While the art points to heaven and at top of it during the night light shines resembling the biblical star that directed the Wiseman to the birth place of the king (Jesus).
The vast space allocated near it offers ample time during the view of the remarkable design. Confirmable from, A University of Tradition: The Spirit of Purdue, while in terms of aesthetic value, the structure achieves great scoring in terms of points; however, the president of the Purdue and the university architect had to absorb certain amount of pressure and complaints directed to them due the hindrance notable in the project. Apparently, the project was Martin Jischke’s first project in the university.
The eventual formation of a community organized committee to seek the way forward on the matter explains the vital
