In this program, students will explore beam, truss, arch, suspension, and moveable bridges to learn how these different structures support weight and span great distances. This design studio introduces students to SketchUp, a fun and free 3D computer modeling program. Students will visit several of NYC’s bridges for inspiration and then design a digital model of their own bridge and create an animated walkthrough of their finished project. Students will also create hand drawings and models to help make connections between digital and physical designs.
