Bridges and Structure

Making the Main Arch

We used a cardboard pattern to cut the main arch pieces from wire mesh screen with wire cutters. Mr. Ticker helped us cut steel supports to put it all together. And when we joined the arch pieces to make the skeleton we were surprised and excited to see the curved arch form.
