Students on the steel bridge team participated in an intercollegiate competition that encouraged them to combine skills in structural design, fabrication, construction planning, organization, project management and teamwork to design, fabricate and construct a scaled steel bridge judged on stiffness, lightness, construction speed, display, efficiency and economy.
In Hinckley, the concrete canoe team performed against eight schools on April 5, at Hinckley Lake, and the steel bridge team faced 13 competitors in the American Institute of Steel Construction Steel Bridge Competition, April 6, at Cleveland State University.
The concrete canoe team was charged with designing a canoe made from concrete and demonstrating its merit based on race results, a technical paper, an oral presentation, the watercraft's aesthetic quality and its overall presentation.
