READ NOWThe competition by Aurecon helps about 1000 Year 8 and Year 9 students bring their ideas to life through encouraging them to develop their understanding of STEM by designing, then building a bridge, and testing its strength.
With increased use of digital and 3D technology to design and build structures in the industry, there was an optional digital component which encourages students to use a 3D platform, SketchUp, to design their bridges.
Team Baldivis 2 won the All-rounder Award as the team with the highest combined score from the judges and strength-to-weight ratio.
