Bridges and buildings made of toothpicks are just like creating a model of the real thing. You have to be cautious in your design of the structure or else it will never stay up. Building toothpick structures takes a while and you can't just push a whole bunch of toothpicks together and put glue over them to get it to look right. Toothpick bridges are especially difficult to make because most of the time the person making them is doing for a competition in which they need to be the one that has the strongest bridge. Meaning that they need to design the bridge and make sure everything in it is correct. Making things out of toothpicks is the same as architecture, just on a smaller scale. All of the same principles of safety, strength, design and construction apply.
