π§© STEAM CAMP | The Logic Behind Engineering
This week, our young engineers dived into the world of structural mechanics and design thinking β all through the power of LEGO!
π During the bridge-building challenge, students had to create a structure strong enough for toy cars to pass and hold weight. They explored load distribution, pressure points, and discovered why arches and triangle supports are more stable than single columns.
π While building LEGO houses, they learned about center of gravity and foundation strength β understanding firsthand why βa strong base builds a tall home.β
π£ And with their own LEGO catapults, they stepped into the shoes of medieval engineers! By adjusting launch angles, tension, and levers, they mastered the balance between creativity and physics.
Hands-on, minds-on β this week was all about realizing that great engineering isnβt just imaginative, itβs logical! π§ πβ¨
