Kwantlan Science challenge

I just got back from edwards house, after getting there at 10am. We were working on Kwantlan Science challenge. We have to build a 60cm bridge out of 100 popsicle sticks or less, and then test how much weight it can support. Yeah, its fun. First, we made a base, then another one, and put them on top of each other. We then slowly added weights to it, and it finally broke with 17 pounds on it. I think thats pretty good. On sunday we will have another meeting, and we will test our second prototype. It is larger than is allowed, with 150 sticks, but we have a way to reduse that. So check back on sunday for our second prototype results. I am guessing that it will carry about.... 30 pounds. I hope. yeah. Wish us luck. Byes for now.
