Paper Bridge
In 1.8 Paper Bridge Design Challenge we were given 2 file folders and 2 wooden cubes to keep the folders on. In this process you were able to cut the folders however you wanted them but you couldn't use them to prop the entire bridge itself. The goal was to hold the bridge up off the 2 cubes the longest length possible. Our group decided to fold the folders into each other like the picture above once we cut the folders into smaller pieces. It was difficult to get the bridges length extended without the bridge clasping. I learned that not all projects will work and failure does happen. Our group didn't even place because our bridge had fallen. Without learning to fail so early in this class it would've been difficult for me to later on learn that.
