My science teacher was telling our class about it and wants us to do it for fun. It's a really cool program

To get to the one I'm doing:

First download it

Click Load a Sample Bridge Design > Warren Thru Truss (20 meter span)

You start off at $195,988.88 and the object is to make it as cheap as possible. I'm down to $167,588.91 so far. You can register... but you have to be a student under 18 I think. After registering you can submit your designs as many times as you want to try and beat everyone with the cheapest bridge. I'm interested to see what everyone else can get here? If anyone wants to do it.
