pvc buoy 3d model

Create a realistic 3D model of a low-cost floating river monitoring buoy built using commonly available PVC pipes and fittings, exactly as described in an academic engineering project. Overall Structure (Low-Cost Design): The buoy uses a trimaran floating configuration made entirely from PVC pipes. • One central vertical PVC pipe (primary buoyancy pipe), closed at both ends using PVC end caps • Two smaller diameter PVC pipes acting as side outriggers, placed symmetrically on the left and right of the central pipe • The three PVC pipes are connected using PVC clamps, brackets, or simple cross-arms, indicating a low-cost, easy-to-assemble structure All pipes are plain white or light grey PVC, with visible joints, couplers, and end caps, clearly showing that the structure is made from off-the-shelf plumbing materials, not custom-manufactured parts. Buoyancy & Stability: • Each PVC pipe is hollow and air-filled to provide buoyancy • Approximately 40–50% of the pipe length is submerged
