Bridge Building

We have been learning about forces and how they help shape the sort of bridges that we build.  

We learned that there are three main types of bridge design; beam, truss and suspension.  Using this knowledge we designed and built our own bridges.

Miss Fletcher set the challenge that our bridges had to be 30 cm long and strong enough to hold an object.

In my group there was Zavier , Stella. We used tape, straws and egg cartons to build our bridge. Here is a photo of our beam bridge. What I liked

best about my bridge is that it can hold a toy truck.
