Spancraft
SpanCraft is a bridge-building challenge where participants must design and construct a cable-stayed bridge along with its foundation under fixed material and budget constraints. Each team will receive a fixed initial budget to purchase foundation materials. Sand will be cheaper, while soil will be costlier but provide better foundation performance, forcing teams to make strategic decisions between cost and stability. For the bridge, teams will be provided with long wooden members and other specified materials. The completed bridge must satisfy the given dimensional requirements and will then be tested for its maximum load-bearing capacity. The winner will be the team that achieves the best combination of load capacity, dimensional accuracy and cost efficiency.
