Trebuchets

Engineering Intensive students put their Mechanical Engineering skills to test today with trebuchets. They used PCV pipes, duct tape, and weights to create a catapult system and see who could launch a tennis ball the farthest down the hallway! Each group had unique designs for how they engineered the launch as well as the carrier for the ball.
