3D Design, Rotation Week 1- Bridge

On the second day of the 3D Design Pathway, we were asked to create a bridge which would be able to support the weight of a toy car, spanning a specific distant and using only 10 sheets of car, 30 bamboo sticks, elastic bands, and packaging tape.
This was a fun project which enabled team work and the chance to bounce ideas off of eachother and gave everyone a chance to have their input.





 
After creating paper models of different formations to help inspire us to create some unstereotypical bridge designs, we then had to construct a replice of our bridge using the described materials above.
Although the initial ideas were very different to our final bridge, we created a bridge which may not have been the most visually attractive but was practical and featured something which no other team had used, liftable end sections to transport the car safely back down to the table.
