Spaghetti Bridges: Building and Testing


Building spaghetti bridges is a workshop where children have to make a bridge that spans a certain width using only uncooked spaghetti and a heat glue gun. The group that builds the bridge that can support the most weight without breaking is the winner.
During this workshop, the students first receive a concise explanation about force distribution, the usefulness of arches in bridges, etc. At the same time, the competition also includes a game element that should not be despised.
Rest assured that the children will listen very carefully to our supervisor's explanation before they start building their bridge.
