Our spaghetti bridge. Pic by Mr. Bertram. 

Me and my group with our bridge.  Pic by Mr. Bertram.

1. The part of the project I found most rewarding is the destruction part. We got to see our hard work pay off and see how long our bridge could hold out. The most rewarding feeling was the one I got when our bridge held over the minimum.

2. The strength of our bridge came from the triangle supports under the spaghetti block on top.

3. I would change the flat part of top. I would make it more reinforced in the middle. This would maker it stronger in the middle. I would also reinforce it more on the sides. Our spaghetti  bridge was only 237 grams. So we had about 115 more grams we could have added to make it more reinforced.

4. A tip to future spaghetti bridge designers is not to let a cat jump on you bridge. It will break!!!! Cats are not to be trusted.
