Truss It
Can you turn popsicle sticks and glue into an unbreakable masterpiece? Truss It Competition is not just about building—it’s about engineering precision, strategic design, and sheer strength. With limited materials and a race against time, every decision counts. The challenge? Build a bridge that’s light as a feather but strong as steel. The best strength-to-weight ratio wins—and only the smartest design will survive. Think you’ve got the skills? Step up, build big, and see if your bridge can take the weight—or come crashing down.
