It’s starting to get closer and closer for the Ohio Valley Student Conference (OVSC) which is a competition amongst different colleges. Our ASCE organization participates in this competition every year, and I’m currently a part of the steel bridge team. During this quarter the team was able to finish the design of our bridge, and all that was left was to build it. Since mostly everyone in the team is having a busy winter quarter, it was decided to just build the bridge in a weekend. This past weekend a group of us headed to our team captain’s house to build the bridge. In a span of about one and half days we were able to construct most of the bridge with only a few more welds left to do. All in all it was a successful weekend and all there is left to do is practice constructing our bridge before the competition. With a few practice runs in this year I’m pretty confident on our chances to doing well. Enjoy the pics.
