3D Bridge Competition
Student Activities
Bridge Competition Rules
The bridge must:
be made of only 3D printed ABS
span a minimum of 5 in.
be no more than 10 in. long
be no more than 3 in. wide
be no more than 3 in. tall
Weigh no more than 1 lb.
Accept a loading block 1.5 in. X 1.5 in.
The provided loading block must:
be centered horizontally across the 5 in. span.
pass completely through the bridge, parallel to the ground and normal to the long axis of the bridge design space.
vertical placement of the loading block does not matter given the bridge is supports all the weight.
The winner will be selected according to which bridge meets all requirements listed and hold the most weight without breaking.
Breaking will be identified through a bridge which may no longer support the test weight, or which deflects the loading block more than 1 in. from the original unloaded position.

Community Night
Exhibition
Community Night is your opportunity to experience fun, hands-on learning. Launch mini rockets, or play in the 3-D sandbox. Visit the Electrical Engineering section to learn how to solder; or stop by the Mechanical section and compete in our famous pine wood derby competition. Don’t forget to explore Kids Korner for the egg-drop event and popcorn! There’s something for everyone so bring the entire family!
Talent Show
Arts/Entertainment
The talent show is open to anyone in the College of Engineering. We are accepting talents of all kinds, the nerdier the better, but any talent is welcome. We will accept 12 applications. The participants will be judged by a panel of professors. Prizes will be given to overall 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, and another prize for nerdiest talent. First place prize is $50. All participants will receive a pad of engineering paper.
Participants are required to attend a planning meeting on the Monday or Tuesday before the talent show. There is a question on the sign-up sheet to indicate which day works better.
