Structural Engineering: Bridges & Skyscrapers
Thames & Kosmos (Created by)
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.
- Build 20 different models that each teach about force, load, compression, tension and more
- Over 285 interchangeable building pieces
- Includes 36-page, illustrated experiment manual and assembly guide
WARNING:
CHOKING HAZARD -- Small parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
The Manual
The 44-page, full-color manual provides detailed step-by-step instructions for assembling the 20 models in the kit. After constructing each model, short experiments pose questions to get kids thinking like a structural engineer.
