With Group 7 as two of our members had covid
These are the sketches of our original bridge design that we were going to build before we joined group 7.
We started by laying out the arch to find the correct angles
Next, we decided to use a protractor to get the best accuracy possible
Visual of the protractor
Hot glued the bridge and base together
It took two days to finish constructing the bridge. Our final product preformed as expected.

The bridge that we built with group 7 handles the load of 20 bricks. After the testing was over, we tried adding more weight to see how much this bridge can handle before collapsing, so we added the 20 bricks, the table shakers, a box, and John stood on one end.
