This year, the International Seismic Engineering Competition, organized by the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute, took place April 11-14, 2023, in San Francisco, California, bringing together 38 teams from prestigious universities worldwide.
Alexandra, Eliza, Cornel, Emanuel, Paul, Petru, and Răzvan, the seven students who represented the Technical University of Construction Bucharest at this year’s edition of the International Seismic Engineering Competition, consulted with the specialists from Ubitech Construcții and Leviatan Design to build a model from balsa wood, which was tested on the seismic platform of the competition.
On the first day of the competition, the jury performed a preliminary analysis of the models entered in the competition, and on the second day, the seismic team from UTCB presented the Cyto Tower project, which brought them the “Best Architecture” distinction at the end of the competition.
