The Last 3 Weeks in Engineering

Lately we have been working on trusses and truss bridges. Once the class learned the math and science to trusses, we were challenged to build a bridge using only paper. Although our bridge could only hold fourth place, my team did well in "investing" to guess which bridge would work best. Below is a picture of our bridge.

(Overall, our bridge could only handle 18 magazines. The parallel structure was good, but the vertical attachment was weak and led to the bridge tilting over)
