The photos in our building instructions show the use of the “normal” 1×6 LEGO brick (without holes). But of course, the 1×6 LEGO brick with holes, that is included in the official WRO brick set (LEGO no. 3894) is used to build the laundry container.
A block is considered inside the laundry container if the block touches the field mat inside the laundry container. It can either lie flat or partly holded by the walls as in this picture:

At the venue in Dortmund teams can use a maximum of one (1) liters of water/liquids for the presentation of their project.
Please be creative and find other options to present projects that are water-related.
You can show your project with more water on a video for example. And find an alternative for the presentation in your booth.

Figure 11 in the rule document shows the position of traffic signs with a section. Cards 5 & 11 and 6 & 12 are the same. This is intentional and will be used this way for WRO International Tournaments.
Please note:
We have updated the scoring table in the Future Engineers General Rules.
The scoring in itself is the same, but it is now more clear which items are only relevant for the final rounds.
Please check the updated General Rules document.
Article 12.16 of the General Rules states that the walls at the international final will be printed on chloroplast.
This is not the case in 2022.
The walls in Germany will be made of a rigid material, most likely wood. They are made following the descriptions in articles 12.3 to 12.8.
