super glue the joints on the main beam on the top
the golden gate bridge
Triangels are the strongest shape so make a triple triangle design i aced it that way +++ The plank bridge is the weakest as it is just a simple beam with no central support or stiffening for the span. The other two can be designed to comparable strength for a given span, but work in somewhat different ways: the truss bridge acts as a beam stiffened by the truss frames, the arch transmits the forces from the centre to its abutments.
an arched birgde is the strongest type of brigde
Wood sticks in a triangle form
well, for my opinion, i think a suspension bridge why: because for of all the cables support the roadway and the two towers looking things at the bottom also supports while for the truss bridge it is only trusses. and if you building a bridge then it depends on what and how you use to build it. good luck!
A truss bridge has the best weight to strength ratio.The triangulation of the popsicle sticks strengthens the whole bridge
Use a truss design. Remember to use lots of triangles as they are the strongest geometrical shape, and also, if you are just testing only the strongest Popsicle stick bridge, use many reinforced Popsicle sticks (two or more popsicle sticks laid on-top of each other). Make your bridge as symmetrical as possible, as this well help your bridge endure more surface and joint tension.If you are using popsicle sticks for your deck as well, you should probably double layer it, then add a zigzag or triangles pattern of sticks on the bottom the deck, to further reinforce it. When you make joints with your popsicle sticks, make it look something like this: --------_______-------- <stick layout keep that pattern consistent, with out laying them in a stair type pattern. Think of those small sturdy bridges with wide, geometrical beams.
Popsicle sticks, tape or zip ties. Straws if you want
Make sure it is sturdy at the bottom, and make sure the glue is secure and will hold the popsicle sticks together when supporting a large amount of weight.
What is usually the strongest of a bridge
Depends on the design of the bridge, and how the sticks are joined. In theory I could build a bridge of popsicle sticks that would support several tons of weight- but it would take a LOT of popsicle sticks.
a truss bridge is the strongest
How do you use it in a sentence?orI always wanted to learn how to make a bridge out of Popsicle sticks.
Put many straws together to make it stronger
