Thank u for teaching me physics so I can pass these basic poly bridge levels

[@AlgoDar]

Lol

[@samartime4374]

I loved this video because people learn in different ways. As much as I enjoyed your previous videos (involving visual tactics), I really prefer this tactic where I can install the game and in a way interact while using a hands-on approach (which is what I'M comfortable with). I definitely learned a lot. And this made your teaching style match more to my style, which made learning fun for me as well. Can't wait to see your other upcoming videos :)

Samar Rahim thanks a lot 😍

I can see what your saying but, the more you play the game the less bridge like it becomes.

[@ninedivines5374]

You can exploit the physics engine and just make an upside down semi circle for any bridge so that surely is how it works in real life right?

[@AlgoDar]

In real life, for most bridges, we follow typical bridge types.
Now you can be innovative and use other methods and shapes, but you need to be careful because the bridge needs to comply with the AASHTO code in the US. That’s why most engineers avoid the risk and just build something similar to previous types and spans.

[@InceyWincey]

It is indeed a technique in real life to dangle a length of material that can withstand tension between two points and use it to cross a gap. It is in fact a time honoured tradition.
Usually in real life you dangle two lengths and attach them across the middle to make them stable but this is not really necessary in two dimensions.

[@AlgoDar]

What game do you suggest I should play next?

[@ashleydolor6198]

Terraria

[@kkTeaz]

@@ashleydolor6198 well If We're doing that then how about undertale

[@AlgoDar]

what are these games about LOL! are they even engineering games

[@yukadiangelo]

@@kkTeaz that's not an engineering game lol

you really like building ducks

[@faizanhussain4596]

Sir where is your 2nd vedio of base isolation

[@stevendijorio2624]

We wanted to see later levels, like the last ones where u actually have to use ur brain.

[@AlgoDar]

might do that!

[@stevendijorio2624]

Engineering Philosophy thanks 😁

[@sibhichelvane6918]

Can you teach us basics of structural analysis in this channel?

[@AlgoDar]

I will! Check StructureFree Channel on CZcams

[@sealigo3259]

wow this is actually something im learning from great video man!

[@AlgoDar]

Greattt

[@kaneko11]

really loved this video

[@AlgoDar]

thank you so much! you suggest any other game?
