ROOM 12 - DESIGNING PAPER BRIDGES
We worked in pairs using only three A4 sheets of paper and our task was to create different models of bridges. We constructed beam bridges and arch bridges out of the paper.
When we corrugated the paper we discovered that it was much stronger because the bridges that had the corrugated paper were able to hold much heavier loads.
