How is this a test if the wooden stick used to connect the load touches on either side of the span, and in some cases both sides? That stick basically acts as a structural element of the bridge. Also, bridges are subject to maximum stress when loaded right in the middle of the span. Should have used a much shorter and more flexible stick to make a decent comparison between the designs.
This heartless teacher just pouring it on and adding weights it should have been very incremental so there is only a constant force she basicially broke the bridge by pushing down on the weight wtf
So, I'm assuming the board going across most bridges is supposed to spread out the load evenly. But it's not made from spaghetti. Doesn't that basically make it bridge made of whatever the board is made of, reinforced by spaghetti? I get that the board isn't (supposed to be) touching the table. But I still feel like that's cheating.
Hola, el primer puente podia resistir mayor carga si no apoyan la tablilla en la mesa, aunque desviaron la carga trasmitida por la tablilla hacia la mesa, el lado opuesto resibio solo la carga, debieron recortar la tablilla, sin embargo, las cargas reales sobre el puente se aplican de manera diferente.!
ALL bridges tested with the distributed load using the wooden planks were not fairly graded. The wood spans the gap and supports the load. The teacher clearly shows this with bridge #5 where the bridge fails and the wood continues to support the load because it's lapping the tables. She displaces the wood 1-2mm and the load falls. Bridge #4 had the same issue. This did a great disservice to these students. All that is required for a "fair" distributed load is: (1) the load distributing beam NOT bend, and (2) the load distributing beam spans all of the truss member intersection points in the lower chord (or upper if that's how you want to run the competition).
Este tipo de retos/concursos despiertan en los alumnos muchas curiosidades y es una forma de aprender "jugando". Pero por favor, no usen comida en este tipo de concursos, no dice mucho a cerca de la ética del proyecto (aunque sea la marca la que les proporciona le material), pueden utilizar otros materiales reciclables como por ejemplo bastones de madera.
2023 italians got nothing to do with freee time but spaggetti bridge . bravissimo bravo bravo. i feel myself italian already bravo. all i need right now is good spagetti and italian pussy to cook for me. just to cook and nothing elseim not pervbert
I did this as a school project in high school but with tooth picks. My bridge held 75lbs and then my teacher didn’t want to add anymore because she wanted to display it for future years.
The person pouring the water should understand that the velocity of the falling water creates more force than just the weight of the water once it's in the bucket. So she's actually exceeding the kilos measure while the pour is happening.
