Steel Bridge 2025

During my third year at Cal Poly Pomona, I was chosen as design captain for our Steel Bridge Club. Over the course of the school year, I was tasked with designing and validating a 20ft steel bridge model for the purposes of competing at AISC’s 2025 Student Steel Bridge Competition (SSBC).
