Junior Bridge Building Contest
2020, Feb 03
OVERVIEW
For my Junior year in the Engineering strand at the Governor’s School for Science & Technology we had to design a bridge in CAD. I designed our bridge in CAD, specifically OnShape. It was then laser cut from foam board, and we glued it together. Below is a picture of the final bridge.
