SEISMIC DESIGN
Seismic Design is one of the teams in the Society of Civil and Structural
Engineering (SCSE), whose objective is to design, construct, and analyze a five foot balsa wood tower and then compete in the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute's (EERI) Undergraduate Seismic Design Competition. UCSD's Seismic Design Team has been participating in the Undergraduate Seismic Design Competition for the past seven years. The extensive support from our sponsors in the previous years has allowed our team to extend and refine our analysis techniques, making us incredibly successful in recent competitions, placing 5th in 2009, 1st in 2010, 11th in 2011, and 8th in 2014. 2015 fall quarter meetings start at 7 p.m. on Tuesdays from October 13th throughout the rest of the quarter in SME 145.
