Create the structure with the highest strength to weight ratio to win this engineering competition! A great way to teach middle school students basic engineering and to learn iteration by studying failure, or teach high school students basic statics, free body diagrams, failure modes, and member sizing calculations while complying with STEM education standards. Includes materials and tools for constructing boomi levers; instruction manual with sample calculations, basswood members, balsa members, adhesive, adjustable cutters, and base material. An ideal training kit for Science Olympiad and other building competitions. Required: electric drill and bit.
Grades 6-12

STRUCTURE AND BRIDGES CLASSROOM KIT https://centralscience.spiderns.com/product/structure-and-bridges-classroom-kit/ https://centralscience.spiderns.com/product/structure-and-bridges-classroom-kit/#respond Tue, 13 Oct 2026 17:19:53 +0000 http://centralscience.spiderns.com/product/structure-and-bridges-classroom-kit/ Gain a comprehensive understanding of structural engineering and learn how engineering concepts are applied in supporting or resisting loads. The class will study different types of bridges and the STEM principles that support their designs. During the unit, students will construct six working models including a house, a suspension bridge, a cable-stayed bridge, an arch bridge and two different truss bridges. They will also be challenged to build the largest free standing tower possible using the Engino components included in the kit. Finally, the students will apply their new knowledge to design and build a straw bridge that spans 70 cm and will support a minimum 2 kg distributed static load using only 100 plastic straws and a limited amount of masking tape. Includes all building and testing materials, instructor?s manual, lesson plans, Engino hands-on activity books, building instructions, and student worksheets. Grades 7-12
