Discover the principles of structural engineering with the Thames & Kosmos Structural Engineering Kit. This comprehensive STEM kit lets you build 20 different models, each demonstrating key concepts such as force, load, compression, and tension. With over 285 interchangeable building pieces, you'll learn about the basics of mechanical physics and structural engineering in a hands-on way. Build small models to understand how structural elements maximize strength, and then move on to more complex structures like trusses, roofs, and bridges.
The kit includes a 36-page illustrated experiment manual and assembly guide, providing step-by-step instructions and scientific insights. Perfect for aspiring engineers, this kit teaches about different types of bridges and skyscrapers and explores the forces acting on structural components. Whether you're interested in building the tallest tower or the strongest bridge, this kit offers endless educational possibilities and is ideal for home or classroom use.
