APPLIED MECHANICS LAB - CHALLENGES - SPAGHETTI BRIDGES
Back











      As part of courses in the areas of Statics and Mechanics of Materials, it proposes the construction and testing of a bridge in a spaghetti model with reduced scale. It is intended to awaken the student ingenuity and creativity to solve a problem of structural engineering, using the knowledge that is acquired in the course units mentioned.
    The objective of this work is to design, build and test a destructive way a model with reduced scale of a bridge truss.
