The Student Steel Bridge Team at UC San Diego is a student-run organization under the Society of Civil and Structural Engineers at UCSD. We work to compete in the ASCE regional competition: Pacific Southwest Symposium against 13 other steel bridge teams. We completely design, fabricate, and construct the bridge from scratch. The team is split into 3 subteams: Design, Fabrication, and Construction, and is managed by the Project Managers. The Design team is responsible for modeling the bridge and optimizing the design to be as competitive as possible. They primarily use SAP2000, Autocad, and SOLIDWORKS to conduct analysis and prepare drawings for the fabrication team. The Fabrication team works closely with the Design team to fabricate the bridge to exact specifications. Using technical knowledge of Welding (MIG/TIG), CNC, Waterjet, Fablight, angle grinding, and other various metal fabrication techniques, the fabrication team works quickly and efficiently to prepare the bridge for the construction team. The Construction team is integral to placing well in competitions, they work to assemble the bridge as fast as possible with no penalties to get the most efficient score.
