Think big! This interactive and fun program perfect for young learners will explore structural concepts in engineering, architecture and construction.
Discover which shapes build the strongest structures and see how even paper can become strong enough to hold up a person. Find out how architects and engineers design and build buildings, bridges, and skyscrapers, and deal with the challenges of building big.
Together, we can build a better world.
