| | Mohawk Iroquois Longhouse - Building a Model |
| | One common scale for such model buildings is the "dollhouse" scale, one inch = one foot, or 1:12; a model of a 200-foot-long structure would be 200 inches long. | | | Building a model or a full sized structure requires plans, a list of materials, and a set of procedures to follow in construction. | | | If plans for a building were drawn at the scale of 1 inch = 4 feet, that means, for example, that a post shown to be one-inch long on the drawing would be 4 feet (48 inches) long in the building. |

| | The IFC Building Model: AECbytes Feature |
| | The model has matured, and the ISO-certification in late 2002 for a large part of the model was a big shot in the arm. | | | For the IFC model to facilitate full interoperability between applications, it would have to be a superset of all their data models, which would be a near-impossible task. | | | The IFC is a similar object-based building data model that is, however, non-proprietary. |

| | Chuck's Cardboard Model Aircraft |
| | The models shown are simple in construction and inexpensive, as they use 1/8" corrugated cardboard as the primary building material. | | | The result is a low cost, fast building model that has good scale appearance and can still take plenty of punishment at the flying field. | | | Almost 30 years ago, a fellow modeler named Bob Miller introduced me to the concept of using corrugated cardboard as a model building material. |

| | Model Aircraft Building Perceptions |
| | German model makers produced lines of large wood model aircraft and very well detailed tanks for their armed forces and some of the company presentation models that survive are exceptional works. | | | From the WW II period on, I have built wood models, mostly static display or "solid" models, but also card models and, for a time, plastic kits. | | | But there is more to it than that, for a wood model, especially a naturally finished wood model, is in recognition of some of the best model work of the Thirties and Forties. |

| | Models : History of plastic model building |
| | With the availability of mass marketed plastic model kits and the disposable income in the (relatively) prosperous times following WWII and the rebuilding in Europe and Japan, a new hobby was born: plastic kit building. | | | Throughout history models were used to represent ideas and to record constructions. | | | I have built models for the better part of thirty five years, have taken photographs of U.S. military aircraft and ships for about twenty five years and am currently scratch building a 1/72 nd scale model of the USS Petrof Bay (CVE-80). |

| | Learning and Model-Building |
| | Therefore, the burden of developing an adequate model is largely on the system itself, which will need to rely on various internal heuristics, combinations of pre-existing components, and subjective selection criteria to efficiently construct models that are likely to work. | | | This may still appear simple in our model with 27 possible architectures, but it suffices to observe that for more complex organisms there are typically millions of possible perceptions and thousands of possible actions to conclude that the space of possible models or control architectures is absolutely astronomical. | | | Thus internal variation of the control rules, together with natural selection by the environment eventually results in a workable model. |
