BRIDGE DESIGN FOR PHYSICS CLASSHELP!!!!!?

Basically i have to do a project where i have to build a bridge with ONLY natural materialsthat touched a machineit has to span 50cm and must be able to withstand 0.5kg of massThe pieces must not exceed 25CMwe were thinking of using bamboo sticks.HAVE ANYYYY IDEAS???? thanks :))))

Answer:

Surely there are more stipulations than just natural material I can think of a few natural materials that have a yield strength of 35 ksiBut as far as design goes.your best bet is a basic truss design.
clay is going to be your best bet, against the styrofoam it will show the texture, and will be a good contrastRoll out somewhat thick coils and wrap the headOther materials would be too thin.
