In this workshop we were tasked with creating a bridge that should span 1,5 meters. Our provided material was small wooden sticks, some string and paper. In the end the competition was to test each group's bridge and count how much the bridges could take; the weight it could take divided by the weight of the bridge. Our bridge could take 23,1 kg, 31 times its own weight!
