Popsicle Stick Bridge Building
Popsicle Stick Bridge Building
Bridge will be made out of popsicle sticks and glue. Sticks may not be cut .You may use up to 200 sticks. The bridge must span a distance of 14 inches (needs to be a little longer for testing ) and must hold a twenty pound weight for at least a full minute, while the bridge is at least one foot above the floor. In addition to meeting the weight bearing and structural requirements, the bridge will also be judged on its aesthetics, so be creative.
