Compare the strength of a beam bridge vs. a suspension bridge.
R
Investigate different bridge types R Does the weight on a Bridge affect the amount of shaking it endures during an earthquake. R Measure the weight-bearing capacity of eggshells. R Measure the relative strength of bridge truss designs based on three different shapes: equilateral triangle, right isosceles triangle, and 30-60-90 triangle. R The Effect of Various Levee Designs on the Ability to Withstand Water S Find out if contact surface area of overlapping bars of steel on a bridge affected its strength R Determine how modifying the structure of a Howe Bridge changes the bridge's load carrying capacity. R Design a truss structure based on equilateral, scalene, and isosceles triangles to determine the strength and the architectural benfits of the different triangles. R R Using Electrical Analogy to Study the Resistance to Seepage under Dams with Different Seepage Curtain R Which bridge design supports the most weight? R S S S How Much Mass Can a Suspension and Truss Bridge Hold? S Evaluate which truss bridge design will hold more weight, the Pratt or the Warren design.
