My friend Ryan and I did this for a project in school. We were allowed to use fifty straws and twenty pins and we built our bridge to look like the Golden Gate Bridge in San Fransisco. It was suspended over a twelve-inch gap between two tables and it couldn't be more than two feet long. Our bridge held eight hundred grams, but the best bridge held three thousand, five hundred grams.
