Explore the science of bridge building Saturday, March 19 at 1:00 PM, as the Tompkins County Public Library and Cornell University’s Center for Materials Research host Families Learning Science Together.
Held in the Library’s Thaler/Howell Programming Room, Families Learning Science Together provides families with an opportunity to share a love of science and learning through hands-on activities and demonstrations.
During March’s program, participants will learn about structural engineering and what engineers have to consider when designing bridges. They will see how stresses are concentrated in materials and then try to build a drinking straw bridge to certain specifications.
Families Learning Science Together is free and open to the public; however, space is limited. To register, contact Kevin at outreach@ccmr.cornell.edu or call 254-8256.
