Written by Ryan Thompson | Fri, Nov 10, 2017

We have a strange question for you!  Do you think you can crush an egg in your bare hand, using only the muscles in your arm?  Think again!  Learn how an egg's shape makes it incredibly strong with another installment of Super Structures. You may be surprised!

In this short video, learn how the shape of an egg is incredibly strong! You’ll find out what makes it unbelievably resilient.  Just one of many architectural demonstrations from the new school assembly program Super Structures!


We designed this program to be an exciting and interactive STEM experience to get students excited about science. In our STEAM program Super Structures, you’ll join Jasmine Blaise, a globe-hopping traveler with a keen interest in architecture, as she shares her journeys and insight on the world's coolest buildings. She'll take you to every corner of the globe, not just showing off these incredible landmarks but also explaining how they're built through clever interactive demonstrations using lots of audience participation. 

This wonderful and captivating school assembly program covers topics such as physics (including loads, forces, and strength), compression and tension, various building methods, material science, structural integrity, world landmarks, proportion, and even the Golden Ratio!
