Bridge Building
- Plywood, cotton yarn.
Students studied a variety of bridge types before collaboratively designing and engineering a bridge to hold maximum loads. As part of the learning by making process, they learnt about material properties and concepts including tension and compression. Students competed with other class members to design and construct the lightest bridge that carried the maximum load. These were tested in the workshop until they reached breaking point.
