EPro8 Challenge; Building a Bridge

Yesterday my group and I built a bridge. The bridge was required to be 700mm tall, 400mm wide, and 2.5 metres long. It was difficult because the outcome was not supposed to touch the 2.5 metres long ‘river.’ We read the book for some hints and it wrote, “Triangles won’t skew, but squares will.” We used the hint well and built triangles wherever we could to reinforce our bridge. It bent a bit, but it was sturdy. In the end, we managed to tick off all the boxes- except the part when we were supposed to place cardboard on the bridge. After all, it was still really fun.
