Cost

The construction of any object has costs that are associated with it.  Not all of these costs are measured with money! Things such as the loss of a forested area where people used to hike for relaxation  due to the bridge's construction will have a very large negative impact on people's lives, and should be taken into account.

In your bridge-building project you will be tracking cost indirectly by keeping track of the number of Popsicles that you and your group use in your model bridge.
