Bridge Building Class Packs

These convenient class packs contain enough materials for 24 students to build and test a wooden bridge. Bridge building is a popular competitive activity in middle and high school classrooms that challenges students to design and construct a wooden bridge, calculate its efficiency, then select the best design. (Some engage in destruction testing afterwards!)

This activity supports a variety of curricula, including geometry, physics, technology education, math, and general science. In addition to classroom competition, there are numerous state and nationwide bridge building competitions held annually that offer recognition and awards.

Balsa Wood Class Pack — Contains 360 pieces of 1/8" × 1/8" × 24" balsa wood, which is lighter and less dense than basswood. Also includes 24 bottles of white tacky glue, 24 sets of instructions, competition design parameters to conduct a competitive lab activity, and the teacher’s guide, Teaching with Model Bridge Building Programs.

Basswood Class Pack — Contains 360 pieces of 3/32" × 3/32" × 24" basswood, which is stronger and more consistently dense than balsa wood. Also includes 24 bottles of white tacky glue, 24 sets of instructions, competition design parameters to conduct a competitive lab activity, and the teacher’s guide, Teaching with Model Bridge Building Programs.
