Bridge out of skewers.
Link | by Revelation on 2008-09-18 23:34:18
i have a physics assignment where i have to build a metre long bridge out of bamboo skewers. it also has to support a weight of approx 4.3 kg :( the lighter the better.
to me this weight seems impossible and, being a male, i have put off my project for 4 whole weeks until the last moments (dont judge me i still have 5 days.)

im not asking you to build a bridge for me, i'd just like to know what main parts of a bridge are under tension and compression please.

im only allowed to use these materials so dont suggest a diamond tether or something...

Bamboo skewers
hot glue gun
bits of string
the internet.

Your input would be greatly appreciated.

Any amount of bamboo skewers?
