why not try it and find out?

I my co-worker wants to buy Lego and bust them up, he can go for it.  I've
been telling him to do just that, and stay away from mine.

Since you don't use just one pin in a bridge, it rapidly becomes more
complicated than a single number. You might want to test a 1x16 technic beam
first, they shear pretty easily (like if you step on the bridge easily)

Well, this is where it gets kind of complicated doesn't it?  Look how Lego
links Technic beams together vertically.  (two beams horozontialy, with a
vertical beam holding them together.  This combination makes the bond much
stronger.  Maybe stronger than the sum of the value of the individual parts.

Maybe I should see if anyone wants to donate to the cause....
