  • The trusses are balsa glued together.

  • To the right of the video, you can see the string is being pulled by a brass hook which is attached to a fish weighing scale. As we pull on the string using the spring scale we read off the force as it increases until it snaps.

  • Ohh, and how did you make the bridges?? =]

  • That's awesome! I'm kind of slow, how do you know how many pounds of force it took to break the bridge?
