Answer 1

First - read the contest rules THOROUGHLY.  You don't want to get disqualified because you missed a technicality.  Can you use glue?  Can you use other materials, like paper, wire, thread?  Do you have to stay under a certain weight?  Do you have to span a minimum distance?  Can you use only one kind of pasta?  Can you modify the material to meet your needs?

Then research as many kinds of bridges as possible.  How many can you build from pasta that will do what is required by the rules?

Then just experiment.  Get a dozen boxes of whatever pasta you can use, and play.  The stuff is cheap, so you should be able to try several different designs, and test them.
