ECSA Roadshow, Cape Town 2017

Another edition of the SAICE-WC Model Bridge Building Competition was held at Canal Walk on 20 May 2017. 31 teams of learners from 25 schools participated from across the greater Cape Town region and beyond! The competition has evolved over the years but fundamentally teams of three need to build a bridge with the materials provided that can span a set distance determined by the judges. The teams have rules they need to comply with regarding the method of construction and functional internal and external parameters that need to be met.
