On the tour, participants learned valuable details about the applied engineering sciences used in its construction, unique qualities of the jobsite, and its success as a secluded facility that has survived years of weathering and use. The facility maintains a unique balance with urban and nature relying primarily on photovoltaic cells for power, natural hills as sound barriers, and its secluded location to garnish interest in natural sciences.
Guest Speaker: Michael Pulley
Micheal Pulley gives an enlightening presentation on his experiences as an engineer and Operations Manager of Swinerton Builders on September 15. He emphasizes blueprint-reading skills and familiarity with BIM software for the industry. Historian Christina Yoon speaks with Mr. Pulley after the presentation.Pacific South West Regional Conference 2010
Concrete Canoe Team
The CSULB Concrete Canoe Team helps students to actively design, analyze, construct, race a concrete canoe and promote team-building skills. This year’s team is using innovative construction techniques which will utilize a fiber glassed reverse male mold and the latest aggregates to create a lighter and stronger concrete formula.
Steel Bridge Team
The Bridge Team designs, analyzes, fabricates and constructs a 20 foot model bridge. Bridge designs incorporate factors such as making a bridge that is financially economical, structurally efficient with the quickest construction time.
CSULB took 2nd place in the Environmental Engineering and 1st place in the Scavenger Hunt events.
Watch the Mystery Event, which was a unique dance routine put together by each school's team:
