nonLeaning Tower of Pasta - An Example of One of The Creations

"Real world" engineers design structures to be built using almost every imaginable material. For this Challenge, teams are required to "play with their food" by designing and building a structure made entirely of Pasta and Glue. The team's structure is scored based on how efficiently it supports weight. There is also a scoring element for the innovation the team shows in the design/construction of their structure. The "efficiency" of the structure is measured by comparing how much weight the structure supports to how much the structure weighs. Another aspect of this Challenge is that the weight is applied to the structure in an off-center way. This means the structure must be designed to support this off-center load without becoming a "leaning tower of pasta". This Challenge also requires teams to create a Presentation, which includes artistic, performance and improvisational elements. Time limit is 8 minutes. The cost limit is $100.00
The Team Also Won The Renaissance Award!!

Way To Go, Stacey Jr/Sr High!
