We decided to build a beam bridge because it was the best one to hold weight. ]]> 2016-10-10 13:06:27 UTC https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/129497875 1616775 https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/129499564 2016-10-10 13:11:46 UTC https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/129499564 1616775 https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/129770896 2016-10-11 12:38:20 UTC https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/129770896 Plan 1616775 https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/129771115 We decided that the first idea was gonna be too hard so then we switched and we couldn't get the triangles to fold right.

We  had to plan around only having 4 sheets of paper, and only 2ft. of tape. 

we had to make the bridge 3in wide and 12in long, and support the weight of pennies to fit the criteria.

When we tested it, the penny stack held up 16 and the penny spread held up 15.]]> 2016-10-13 12:36:00 UTC https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/130405398 1616775 https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/130406543 2016-10-13 12:39:21 UTC https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/130406543 Improve 1616775 https://padlet.com/1616775/o65m1ybjjyb/wish/130407114 Next time I would only make four supports and make the supports taller. I would also use the paper to make it more sturdy

I wouldn't build a different bridge time because the supports on the beam bridge help support the most weight. i would just not do five supports, instead i would do four.

I think me and my partner worked well together. Next time we can think of more ideas and work together more
