Straw Bridges

Working as engineering teams, students design and create model beam bridges using plastic drinking straws and tape as their construction materials. Their goal is to build the strongest bridge with a truss pattern of their own design, while meeting the design criteria and constraints. They experiment with different geometric shapes and determine how shapes affect the strength of materials. Let the competition begin!

The activity only makes sense with limited resources. You give kids unlimited tape and they’re just going to make you a tape bridge with some straws. 🤷🏼‍♂️
