Brick















We had 30 minutes working in a small group of 3. Our group consisted of myself Ashley and Hanna we work well as a team and enjoyed what we got out of the exercise. The task was too support the brick using only 10 sheets of card 10 sheets of paper and 1 metre of masking tape as high off the ground as possible for a period of five seconds.
We worked out a method of slotting the card together that would have given us a great result. Unfortunately we did not trail run it and it failed. We had no time to modify it so we improvised and in the very last second produce a support that supported the brick for the required time at a modest height of 21 cm. This really brought out the competitor in me its hard to hide!
Amazingly we disgarded our idea and managed to improvise with our successful support that we accomplished in the very last second of the time allowed to create the structure, real nerve racking stuff...!
