This is my bridge, yes I built about 80% of it. I didn't look at the bridge because we had to stack weight until it broke. There's no way to see the bridge failing under this much weight. You can hear the wood begin to crack and eventually fail.
Yes I'm sure you could hold much more weight with less wood but we had specific guidelines of bridge span/width and height to stay in.
This is probably a strange comment, but I'm curious. Why do neither the weight placer nor the weight passer ever look at the bridge?
Were neither of them involved in the creation of the bridge?
Is it considered bad luck to watch ones creation being tested?
Perhaps these guys realized, having designed and constructed this bridge, that it's structure would inevitably fail spontaneously and without warning, rendering studying it for areas of weakness pointless throughout this exercise.
@spencermiller38 basswood is considerably stronger the balsa wood, so before I rip you a new one, I require some additional information concerning your claim. Is your IQ around boo boo dah dah?, or more or less rated at doof doof boppy boppy?
@Rustyy444 this guys last comment (hacked) was "I wank to pictures of Garden Gnomes and cum when I see one that's been broken by a passer by that doesn't like gnomes"
the bottom portion seems unnecessary, but this video isn't the best quality so i can't exactly see your reason for it. I know you had have some reasons for it, but just sayin, seems quite unnecessary.
Haha yeah for sure, they love the B-Wood ---- that's the street name!
Sorry JakeyBoi2010, I never got a notification of you posting the comment. If your still needing notes or need questions answer than ask away. Again I'm sorry for the terribly late response.

our physics class had a limit of 45 grams. my friend and I won with 128lbs

@3nasacova I'm sure the dimensions and requirements are online. If you doubt me that much, I'll upload the 2100 efficiency bridge at the competition.

Not really that impressive. At the PSU York Bridge Building Competition, we get up to at least 1500 efficiency with basswood bridges under 30 grams.

Have you been able to use this design in the real world? Part of this class do you discuss
What part of bridge failed and why, can it be improved in a redesign?

I'm building something similar to this and would really appreciate some tips or maybe a good website to go to? good vid
