Spaghetti Bridges

Today for Inquiry we tested how strong our bridges were and it came up pretty well. Alex, Fraidon, Joseph and I worked collaboratively to make our bridge strong but unfortunately, our bridge only held 5 bricks and broke. The type of bridge that we decided to use is the truss bridge because triangle shaped, truss bridges are really strong it holds tension and load, we used triangle shapes because it will save us lots of spaghetti to use for the deck. Materials that we used: Tape, Spaghetti, Rubber Bands and lastly String, putting the tape is best way because tape can hold lots of load and can resist tension. The Span of our bridge is 26.5 cm which is good, it is not too big so it doesn't waste spaghetti and we used the left over spaghetti to make the deck.
