Paper Bridge - An Innovative Concept

Men walking on moon… Great Right!Dreams can be turned into reality, we have seen it happening.In addition, we have it in us to achieve many more.Chasing a dream with determination and zeal can easily get you to your goal. This world is full of diversities and our call is to bridge these diversities and gaps.And for this we are building a bridge which is unconventional and an eco-friendly bridge made with old newspapers.You can think of a bridge as any supportive structure that spans a gap. Yes, it will be a supportive structure and this time this will go to withstand your weight.Yes, I am not joking! Come on be a part of record breaking, revolutionary moment…All the beams and decks of the bridge will be made of recycled paper only. If you think that building a bridge wholly out of paper is just impossible but let me tell you that this is not the first attempt. IIT Chennai has already pioneered in making such a bridge. As a part of SHAASTRA 2002, technical festival of IIT-M, a paper bridge of 11mt length was constructed and no less than 10 people walked over it at a time. We, at VJTI, plan to break the record and make an even longer paper bridge!! Today’s dreams tomorrow’s future is not just a Filmy line but a reality made possible due to the untiring efforts and unabated ambition of the engineers. To realize everything we dream into reality is the motivation factor for the budding engineers and the concept of Paper Bridge is just one of them. We the VJTI’ans have built a bridge made up of PAPER and made a foray into the world of living a dream.Come and Walk on it…
