Held on 18 January 2025 at KUET Civil Engineering Department. Nine signature segments brought together top engineering talents from all over the country. Official rulebooks and registration records below:
Design, fabricate, and test lightweight balsa wood truss bridge models. Bridges are subjected to destructive central point loading on the KUET hydraulic testing floor, evaluated strictly on load-to-weight structural efficiency.
The premier civil-business case solving competition. Multidisciplinary teams formulate engineering, financial feasibility, and logistical solutions for real-world mega-infrastructure and coastal defense challenges in Bangladesh.
Academic research and innovation showcase. Undergraduate scholars display novel studies in concrete materials science, eco-friendly supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs), geotechnical stability, and earthquake resilience.
Field surveying and geomatics alignment showdown. Teams demonstrate speed and millimeter-level accuracy utilizing optical levels and total stations across complex campus benchmarks and elevation traverses.
The ultimate engineering mechanics and statics olympiad. Rapid-fire problem solving testing free-body diagrams (FBDs), Mohr's circle stress transformations, shear-moment kinetics (SFD/BMD), and elastic deflection.
High-intensity computer-aided drafting and structural detailing challenge. Draft complex reinforced concrete sections and foundation plans in AutoCAD under strict ACI 318 and BNBC 2020 drafting codification.
3D architectural animation, structural walkthroughs, and 4D construction sequencing. Participants render dynamic visual narratives portraying how modern concrete structures are conceived, built, and integrated.
Scientific writing and technical journalism competition. Critical analysis of emerging structural engineering topics, smart sensor embedded concrete, climate-resilient bridges, and infrastructure asset management.
Civil engineering and architectural photography contest. Capturing the grandeur of monumental construction, raw concrete textures, cantilever geometry, and infrastructure workers reshaping the national skyline.
