design and technology context.

Education

This K’NEX Bridges kit is the first in a

series called Understanding Structures.

An investigation of how bridges work will

help children develop a good

understanding of the forces affect-

ing structures in general. A successful

bridge is the result of balanced forces

in action. While bridge building makes

use of simple scientific concepts, their

application often requires complex

engineering solutions. It also demands

a knowledge and understanding of

the physical properties of materials

so that their influence on the design

and construction of the bridge can

be determined.

The K’NEX Introduction to Structures:

Bridges Kit

7 main types of bridge design, this

construction kit also provides opportunities

for learning how structures are made

stable and how they are able to support

their loads. In addition, it can be used to

demonstrate that structures can fail when

loaded and to identify the techniques for

reinforcing and strengthening them.

 • Workinginpairsorsmallcollaborative 

groups, the kit provides opportunities for

pupils to explore different bridge designs,

and the forces acting on them, through the

use of focused practical tasks (FPTs), and

investigative, disassembling and evaluative

activities (IDEAs). The information gained

from these activities will help children

develop their own ideas to solve a bridge

design problem using sheet and other

resistant materials, as well as K’NEX

construction kits, where appropriate.
