Overview
In my second semester of Structural Systems, I was a member of a group that designed a minimal weight balsa column to be tested under a hydraulic press to test the compressive stress of the wood.
My role on this team of four was 3D design + modeling, calculations, and construction support. This project allowed my love for math and science to flourish.
