The Bridge

thingiverse

The bridge is constructed from six distinct types of components, each with precise dimensions and percentages of strength. They are: members measuring 1 inch by 0.15 inches, which comprise 80% of the structure; members measuring 1 inch by 0.2 inches, which account for 75%; members measuring 2 inches by 0.15 inches, also making up 80%; similar members measuring 2 inches by 0.2 inches, accounting for 75%; and finally, components measuring 2.236 inches by 0.15 inches, as well as identical ones measuring 2.236 inches by 0.2 inches, each contributing 80% to the overall framework. The total weight of this bridge is an impressive 30.7 grams. Its remarkable capacity is demonstrated by its ability to support at least 35 kilograms without showing any signs of structural failure. When subjected to a rigorous testing process, the bridge withstood the load without collapsing, leaving its full capacity unknown. Calculating the load-to-weight ratio, we find it is an astonishing 1048 times its own weight.
