To mark the final day of Engineering and Geoscience Week, on Saturday, March 5, 2016 NAPEG’s Bridge Building Competition was held at the Centre Square Mall in Yellowknife. Thank you to all our participants and for the generous donations from Air Tindi, Buffalo Airways, the Yellowknife Inn and Centre Square Mall, as sponsors of National Engineering and Geoscience Week.
School students, professionals and the general public throughout the Northwest Territories and Nunavut submitted model bridges which were evaluated for strength, quality of construction, and application of engineering principles.
Congratulations goes to…
