Truss Bridge
Personal project
Role
Structural design
June 2025
Tools & Technologies
Fusion 360
Truzme
Load simulation
Structural design
Problem
Find a structurally efficient bridge design and evaluate it before testing.
My role
I explored structural efficiency with drawings and Truzme, then modeled and simulated the bridge in Fusion 360.
Outcome
Best strength-to-weight ratio in my grade.
Design process
I used drawings and Truzme to explore structural efficiency before modeling and simulating the bridge in Fusion 360. The design achieved the best strength-to-weight ratio in my grade.
Result
Best strength-to-weight ratio in my grade.
What worked
Comparing the structural design through CAD and load simulation led to the best strength-to-weight ratio in my grade.
What I learned
I learned to compare truss designs by their strength-to-weight ratio and use CAD and load simulation to evaluate structural efficiency. Moving from drawings and Truzme to Fusion 360 helped me connect design choices with the bridge’s response to loading.
