In this cheerful workshop, the participants explore engineering and structures through a fun bridge building challenge.
The participants explore strong triangular truss structures hands-on through an experiential process, and gain first-hand experience of the rigidity and durability of the structures during the working process.
The bridge building process is arranged as a fun competition where participants work in teams to solve the design challenge. In the end the bridges are tested and the best bridge wins!
The workshop includes an inspirational lecture in which bridge construction and design is introduced to the participants.
