for everyone
Project 1: Design bungee jumping tower.
-hand written report submitted was as thick as... 1.5 times the SPM sejarah form5 text book-
Project 2: construct newspaper bridge. using recycled newspaper and glue only. max bridge weight 1.5 kg. marks based on amount ogf loads bridge can take before it fails and also the ratio of the max loads to the bridge weight.
(for full marks, a 1 kg newspaper has to support bridge 100 kilos)

after 4 days of bridge testing, the record was still only 50 kg loads, with average of 20-30 kg before failure. 100 kg seems impossible even to the lecturer. Moderation of marks was considered.

that was until team jossie came, and presented...
The 100kg and still Unbreakable bridge.
