The things I learned from this project:
-how costly civil engineering projects can be with the burden of a budget
-how to redesign a project through failure
-how to operate/navigate the bridge simulator program
-how to create stable structures
-how tension, stress, and force effect a structure
-how different materials effect a structures durability
The direction, and type of stress affect the material type as well as material according to how much stress the material can bear. If a material can stretch further than another, it will have a different cross section than material 2. Due to this, according to a materials cross section, and the type of force applied, it will affect material used.
Forces of tension and compression can work together in a bridge in a way they counter act one another. If one member is in compression and the other in tension. The member in compression can work to push the member in tension to a stable point. If the two forces counteract one another in a way the structure is stabilized under stress. This will create a stronger structure.
