Description & Specifications

STEM Structural Engineering Kit

Have you ever wondered how bridges can be built over huge distances and how skyscrapers remain standing? Structural engineers use physics and their knowledge of building materials and geometric shapes to design structures with strength and stability. With this construction set, you can learn the basics of structural engineering by completing a series of 20 modeling experiments.

  • Each model demonstrates a key principle of engineering or structural engineering in a practical way.
  • Start with small models that show how building elements can be connected to maximize the strength of a structure with a specific amount of material used.
  • Learn about the basic building elements, including columns, beams, slabs, arches, shells, and distributed loads.
  • Explore the forces acting on structural elements, including tension, compression, shear, and bending.
  • Advance to constructing more complex models, such as scaffolding, roofs, and small buildings.
  • Experiment with different types of bridge construction: beam, arch, eccentric, suspension, and cable-stayed bridges.
  • Finally, build impressive skyscraper models.
  • What is the tallest building you can create using only the pieces from the kit?

Learn about the strength and durability of materials. See how structural engineers optimize factors to maximize safety and minimize costs and risks of structural failure. A fully illustrated 36-page guide walks you through the model-building process with step-by-step instructions. The kit contains 323 pieces, 20 experiments, and an instruction manual. Recommended age: 8 - 14 years. Made of plastic. Complies with EN71 and ASTM regulations.

WARNING: Not suitable for children under 3 years, contains small parts. Adult supervision is recommended during play. Read the instructions before use, follow them, and keep them for reference.
