Pasta Bridge Building In-House Competition Results

Our spring pasta bridge building in-house competition took place on April 10, 2025. A total of three teams from the Bánki Faculty and one high school team successfully entered with their bridge structures. This time, no teams participated in the load-bearing (truss) category.

The strongest bridge was “Hidasdi”, holding an impressive 163 kg. The second place went to “S.Z.S.Z.”, with a load capacity of 31.3 kg, while the third was “JasonMomoa, Martina”, supporting 21.9 kg.

In the high school category, students from Kölcsey Ferenc High School participated with their bridge named “Jákob”, which withstood 30 kg.

We extend our congratulations to all participating teams! We hope our students will join the next challenge and encourage their peers to take part in pasta bridge building as well.
