Step 1: Identify the Problem
Step 4a: Construct a Prototype
Step 4B: Test the Prototype
Step 5: Evaluate the Solution
Step 6: Present Solution
Step 2: Generate Concepts
Step 3: Develop a Solution
Completed by doing the following: 1. Reading about how glue works 2. Watching videos on how glue works 3. Researched some bridge designs
Completed by drawing out a design on a piece of paper of the bridge we plan to build
Completed by taking our design and building the 3-Dimensional bridge prototype (model bridge)
Completed by counting how many pennies (weight) the bridge held
Completed by comparing our results of the bridge performance compared to the bridge performance of other groups
Completed by putting the bridge between two tables and hanging a cup from the center of the bridge. Pennies were then added to the bridge until failure
Design and build a bridge where we make the glue that will hold the most weight
