You will build a bridge using only foam core and white glue. Your bridge must span a 18" gap, be at least 4" wide, and there must be a place where we can stack weights. Your goal is to build a bridge that can bear as much weight as possible. Consider strength and beauty when you design your bridge. Your projects will be strength tested during the critique, and the student whose bridge can hold the most weight will win a prize.
