Use a truss design. Remember to use lots of triangles as they are the strongest geometrical shape, and also, if you are just testing only the strongest Popsicle stick bridge, use many reinforced Popsicle sticks (two or more popsicle sticks laid on-top of each other). Make your bridge as symmetrical as possible, as this well help your bridge endure more surface and joint tension.If you are using popsicle sticks for your deck as well, you should probably double layer it, then add a zigzag or triangles pattern of sticks on the bottom the deck, to further reinforce it. When you make joints with your popsicle sticks, make it look something like this:

--------_______-------- <stick layout

keep that pattern consistent, with out laying them in a stair type pattern.

Think of those small sturdy bridges with wide, geometrical beams.

To make a Popsicle stick bridge you will need Popsicle sticks and glue. Draw the bridge that you want to build so you have a guide. Try to use a lot of triangle shapes in the design since triangles are so strong. Make a sturdy bottom support by gluing together the Popsicle sticks. Make a sturdy top support as well. Now fill in the sides with Popsicle sticks.

You'll need your choice of juice, an ice tray, saran wrap, and toothpicks. First, make your juice by following the instructions on the can. Second, slowly pour the juice into the clean ice tray. Next, tightly wrap the ice tray in saran wrap. Finally, stick the toothpicks in the middle of each Popsicle. Now, freeze the particles in a freezer from 3-4 hours, or overnight if you want.

Then measure from your dolls hand to the top of their arm and use that number (let's say 5in. then you measure 5in. from the 1st Popsicle stick and glue the 2nd stick) to put the other half of the Popsicle stick. And repeat on the other skewers!
