Mola Structural Kit 1 | Magnetic Modular Kit for Engineering and Architecture Education | 122 Pieces + Practical Guide

Let’s make it clear this is overpriced, and I wish the springs had better quality.But this is the best teaching tool in the market for civil Eng.

We purchased these for use in academic settings on a small shake table we have. But even without the shake table they are amazing.

Good

I'm a big geek and love all things civil engineering and also love LEGO and building things. These are totally up my alley. I've admired tools like these for years and when I had a chance to get one of my own, I jumped at it.The set comes with a decent starter assortment of parts and pieces to construct functional infrastructure. I was able to build a little suspension bridge and compare that against a truss bridge I later built. The magnets hold fast and don't feel like they'll slip at all. These are a great teaching tool for younger wannabe engineers. Also a great way to keep idle hands busy during seemingly eternal conference calls for work.I just wish they didn't cost quite so much. While what you get is well built and feels and looks nice, the pricing is just a bit higher than most would be comfortable spending. I would love to own 10X what I have now but it's just not near fitting in my budget.

A bit different than your typical Lego set. Has a magnetic construction and is a bit more "science" based than Legos. You are constructing a basic structure and testing angles and bearing, more in the style of a science experiment than usual building. In Lego, instructions are emphasized to build a certain model, but with this set, greater exploratory thinking was involved.
