November 6th Meeting – Engineering, Bridge Design, and Term Project
November 7, 2007
The ACE Mentor Peninsula One Team met on November 6th at Palo Alto High School. We started with a presentation on careers in engineering which was followed by a bridge building exercise. Lars Lee, a structural engineer, introduced the students to a few structural design concepts and then the students had to build a bridge out of straws that would support our “duck” weight. Check out the pictures below:
