POLYDRON BRIDGES CLASS SET
This 322-piece construction set features a wide range of components (as detailed in the key), providing everything needed for in-depth exploration of bridge design and engineering.
Ideal for recreating well-known bridges from around the world, the set introduces key structural concepts and gives learners the opportunity to build and test a variety of bridge types. These include truss, suspension, cantilever, cable-stay, and drawbridge designs, helping to develop an understanding of how different structures work.
With the included resources, up to eight bridge models can be built at the same time, including Pratt Truss, Howe Truss, Warren Truss, Deck Truss, Cantilever, Cable-Stay, Suspension, and Drawbridge. Additional extension activities, such as Swing Bridge and Bascule Bridge, provide further opportunities for learning and experimentation.
Twelve detailed workcards and lesson plans offer clear, step-by-step guidance, making the set ideal for classroom use. Perfect for STEM learning, it encourages problem-solving, creativity, and hands-on exploration, while also inspiring learners to design and build their own structures beyond the guided models.
