Bridge Building Challenge

Posted: 10th April 2012

In Design and Technology Club, we have taken part in a Bridge Building Challenge. The challenge:

To make a bridge long and strong enough for a small car to travel from one table to another.

The teams were told they each had 25 minutes to

complete the task and £100 to spend on paper, tape,

paperclips, scissors, rulers and pencils.

Awards were given for the team which made:

The best looking bridge

The cheapest bridge

The quickest successful bridge

And for the best team work.

Well done to everyone who took part!
