from the alamillo bridge by santiago calatrava in sevilla, spain to the sydney harbour bridge in australia, architects and creatives alike can model iconic buildings using the mola structural kit 3. their third package builds upon the components of the first two, allowing users to seamlessly integrate more components into their creations. with new cable, connections and bar stiffener elements all using magnets, the modular tool helps develop knowledge of structural behavior.

the mola structural kit 3 is a system for hands-on structural learning, and has even been introduced into some schools’ curriculum. as a modular construction system, it is scientifically validated to realistically simulate the behaviors of structures, from single elements to plane frames, space structures and even more complex systems. different structural properties can be explored using their instruction booklet.

building upon their previous two packages, the third kit includes 237 new pieces to expand construction possibilities. this ensures the tool can be further used to gain better practical but also experimental knowledge of different concepts. to learn more about structures, visit mola model’s kickstarter page, here.
