Do you ever wonder how bridges span huge distances and how skyscrapers stay standing? Structural engineers use physics and their knowledge of the properties of building materials and geometric shapes to design structures with sufficient strength and stability. Learn about the strength and stiffness of materials with this kit. See how structural engineers optimize factors to maximize safety, and minimize cost and the risk of structural failure.
