Canstruction® is a competition that engages participants in structural design while also allowing them to make a significant positive impact on hunger in their local community. We are also excited to announce that the competition will involve design in Tinkercad of a structure built of canned food. The design must be detailed with specific can/label information. The spirit of the event will remain unchanged, with the goal of engaging students in a design challenge while benefiting people in need in our community.
