Competitions
BridgeIt: BridgeIt is the competition in which participants have to make a Trussed Arch Bridge using Popsicle sticks and Fevicol as adhesive. Designing Bridge for the hilly area is very challenging as land is too much undulated therefore designing of the bridge with footings at different levels is required for such areas. Thus we are launching the competition to make Trussed Arch Bridge with different level of footings that can sustain the greatest conceivable load without failure.
Prizes worth INR 15000 at stake.
