An initial plan for a tall tower

Engineers draw plans to help them think. You are going to have to think hard to find ways to build your Tall Tower.

Challenge #13

Build a Tall Tower that will stand for 1 minute using only the materials provided.

Gravity is always pulling down. It will always look for weakness in your tower and try to make it lean or twist or collapse. You will need to use data as you build to find ways to use the strength of your tower’s base to make your tower tall.

Upload your first Tall Tower design here.

Upload your picture here.

(You can receive up to three 20-point badges for your Tall Tower plans. You must go through the process 3 times to receive all 3 badges.)

After you complete this step move on to Testing Your Tower!
