STEM Club – Building Bridges with Ewan and Gareth from “Wood”

Ewan and Gareth from “Wood”, the oil, gas and engineering company joined us at STEM club.

We learned about different types of bridges, what makes them strong and what makes them vulnerable!

We had to make a bridge with only 5 pieces of paper and sellotape.  Ewan was very kind though and gave us some more paper to help.

 

We developed:

• teamwork
• problem solving
• evaluating and adapting
• patience and perseverance

Which group worked best together?

Which bridge held the heaviest weight?

Which bridge collapsed?!
