1. Edit the Texture of the Model In Photoshop (For initial test)
2. Problems
As the last weeks problem, my texture still do not show in right scale in 3ds mas, for now, what I can do is adjust it for feeling and see the result in cryengine frist and go back to edit in 3ds max.
3. Three Chosen Materials
a. Concrete

Concrete is the most important contemporary civil engineering materials.
Concrete has abundant raw materials , low cost, simple production process characteristics, thus increasing the amount of it . Meanwhile concrete also has a high compressive strength, durability, strength grade wide range of features . These features make use of a very wide range , not only to use in a variety of civil engineering , is the shipbuilding , machinery, marine development , geothermal projects, concrete material is also important .
Concrete is a building full of vitality . With the continuous development of the constituent materials of concrete , people growing awareness of composite materials technology .
Performance requirements for concrete compressive strength is not limited , but based on the strength , based on the more attention the durability of concrete deformation properties of composite indicators of balance and coordination. Concrete requirements of the performance indicators more clearly than before , detailed and specific .
b. Glass

Glass is composed of quartz sand, soda ash, feldspar and limestone at high temperature steel. Melt in the cooling process is not obtained by gradually increasing the viscosity of the solid crystalline material. Brittle and transparent. Quartz glass, silicate glass, soda lime glass, fluoride glass, high temperature glass, high pressure glass, UV glass, explosion-proof glass. Usually refers to silicate glass, quartz sand, soda ash, feldspar and limestone as raw materials, through mixing, high temperature melting, homogenizing after forming, and then annealed derived. Widely used in construction, household, medical, chemical, electronics, instrumentation, nuclear engineering and other fields.
c. Steel

1670s, humans began to use iron for building materials, developed in the early 19th century to build bridges with wrought iron, housing and so on. These materials due to low intensity, poor overall performance, subject to restrictions in the use, but this is the beginning of it is made of steel structures. To the 1930s, the emergence of high-strength steel has promoted the development of prestressed concrete, creating a reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete dominated the new historical period, the occurrence of a new leap civil.
Currently, the country is different from the ordinary steel to develop a variety of efficient steel varieties, including low-alloy steel, heat-strengthened steel, cold steel, as well as economic section steel plating, coating, composites, surface treatment of steel, etc., by the construction industry use, has achieved significant economic benefits.
4. Reflection
This week, I have understood the material and structural importance in the building. First, determine the architectural structure of the building function, and material characteristics of architectural style better manifested. For this, I decided to refer to the material prior to construction and structural features, in my project using concrete, glass and steel.
