HANDS ACROSS THE BRIDGE 2021 HOW TO
During the fabrication phase, team members have the opportunity to learn how to use shop machinery and participate in the construction process. Therefore, during fabrication, the team members can participate and give input in the decision-making of the final product. This process gives each team member a better understanding of how the bridge is going to be constructed.
Every year, team members learn how to model the actual bridge, which is being built, and help to finalize steel sizes. Many freshmen have learned engineering concepts by fabricating and building the bridge before they have even taken the related classes. Joining the Steel Bridge Team has many benefits. Most of the following information was obtained from the official steel bridge rules: HERE From concept to competition, all tasks are performed by members of the team, including designing, optimizing, drawing, detailing, locating and ordering material, fabricating, painting, assembling, and competing. The team is comprised of determined and eager students who want to become involved in a competitive design-build project. The entire project is managed by students who do not receive any school class credit or scholarships in return however, a great deal of knowledge and experience is gained by everyone involved.
