Frequently I use Balsa or Basswood. These two woods are common, and you can find them in most any hobby store. You can also use popsicle sticks, toothpicks, paper, cardboard, and tons of other things. Often I choose to make a balsa wood bridge because they are versatile and fun to construct.

Students work in pairs to create three simple types of model bridges (beam, arch, suspension). They observe quantitatively how the bridges work under load and why engineers use different types of bridges for different places. They also get an idea of the parts needed to build bridges, and their func…

Our ideas for a bridge is to create  a very strong base so when it is tested, it won't fall.

What is the strongest bridge design?

This is the question I get asked the most.

Before we can begin to look for an answer, I need to know more specifically what you are looking for. Are you looking for the the strongest Type of Bridge, such as:
Bridge Types:
Each of these has advantages and disadvantages. Each type could be the best for a specific situation, and there are a ton of factors that engineers must consider when choosing which one to use.

You can learn more about each of these by clicking the link above.

Perhaps you are asking about which truss design is the strongest. Since most model bridges are truss bridges, this is a great question to ask.
Truss Designs:
Is the the Pratt, Howe, or the Warren truss stronger? Each of these designs, along with the host of variations, was developed for a specific reason or to make better use of existing or new materials or construction methods. Their history is fascinating, and you definitely should check out the articles about each of them.

Each truss design takes a load or force and spreads it out, eventually transferring it to the bridge abutments and/or piers.

So Which Truss is Strongest?

You really are going to pin me down to answering this question, aren't you?

In my mind, none of these truss designs has an inherent advantage over the others in a very broad and general sense.

However, when we are considering small model bridges, I have a hard time seeing the Howe as efficient as the Pratt. But is one of these better than the most common, the Warren? You can explore my reasoning on this throughout this website.

Why don't you take a look at each design and comment below which on you think is the best, especially in the context of model bridges.

Learning by practice is always the best, says civil engineering professor Amr ElRagaby. That's what makes a contest to design and build a model bridge from popsicle sticks a valuable experience for his students.

"They can understand the principles, but when they have a chance to apply the theories, they learn something they will never forget," he says.

Students of his third-year class in Finite Element for Analysis and Design will test the load-bearing capacity of their structures Wednesday, and invite the campus community to watch. The competition measures their skills in analyzing, designing and constructing truss bridges built only with craft sticks, toothpicks, and glue. Each bridge will measure 750 mm and will be subjected to a load test until it collapses.

"Failure is the ultimate goal, because only then can we know the ultimate limits of their strengths and flexibility," says Dr. ElRagaby.

The competition offers cash prizes in three categories:

highest ratio of load borne to structure mass and deformation;

most accurate prediction of maximum load; and

most creative and innovative design.

The testing is open for public viewing and begins at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, July 31, in the Industrial Courtyard, Centre for Engineering Innovation.
