Bridge Building
Event Instructions
This event tests your ability to build a lengthy, strong, stable, and reproducible suspension bridge. Your team of two will be given 50 Popsicle and one meter of masking tape. The students will have up to 30 minutes to build for each event (time is a tie-breaker). The other 15 minutes is used for directions at the beginning (5 minutes) and testing towers/bridges at the end (10 minutes). The state uses the same 45 minute session blocks of time.
The bridge will need to support an eraser for 10 seconds.
