Also another challenge we faced was our deck wasn't that sturdy , we tried one penny & it fell ... Our constraints were those problems & also another constraint was we had little materials , like paper . Paper is weak ..  ]]> 2016-10-11 12:49:11 UTC https://padlet.com/1646965/bsk4jgk9m4gd/wish/129775004 Create 1646965 https://padlet.com/1646965/bsk4jgk9m4gd/wish/130405933 Our model is in the picture below .. 
Our parts ; We had 2 towers or supports to keep the bridge up . We also had a piece of paper to connect with the deck to kinda hold it up.. & we also had a piece of paper rolled up , & that's under the deck . That was made to also keep the deck up a little bit 
Test Results ; Our test results weren't that great , but our deck held up more than one penny . For our penny stack , Ms.V put pennies on , one by one , stacking them on top of each other , which didn't get that far .. For the penny stack our deck held up 9 pennies . Then for the penny spread , we took pennies & just spread them all over , until the bridge tipped over ..That only went to 9 also .]]> 2016-10-13 12:37:47 UTC https://padlet.com/1646965/bsk4jgk9m4gd/wish/130405933 Improve 1646965 https://padlet.com/1646965/bsk4jgk9m4gd/wish/130413249 If me & my partner were to go back & fix anything , it would be to make better supports & make a stronger deck . 
Yes i would definitely make a different bridge next time & it would be a beam bridge . Its more easier. 
I think me & my partner worked well together . ]]> 2016-10-13 12:55:59 UTC https://padlet.com/1646965/bsk4jgk9m4gd/wish/130413249
