The
competition is a fun and challenging opportunity for students to test their
engineering skills and experience the planning, problem solving and team work
required for a career in engineering. This year competition is open for all Civil
Engineering students (and first year students) who are selected only from internal competitions of University of Peradeniya, University of Ruhuna and University of Moratuwa.
Maximum number of members for a group is six.
A
spaghetti bridge is a small scale model bridge (architectural model) made of
spaghetti. Each bridge will be loaded by a member from the group that built the
bridge. During the competition,
bridges will be loaded until failure. Bridges will be graded by the ratio of
maximum load to the weight of the bridge. Awards will be presented for the groups
presenting top three bridges.
