In sixes, cubs build a bridge a miniimum of 250mm long and 150mm wide to span the gap between two tables or benches. Each six may build as many bridges as they wish but must work together.
The strength of each bridge (i.e. the weight at which it collapses) will be recorded with the strongest bridge winning.
