Re: West Point Bridge Design Contest

I used this software all the way back in middle school, nearly 8 years ago now, for an in class bridge contest. We had to design in West Point, then actually build it out of basswood. Not a single person in the class failed. The software really makes engineering and forces easy to understand, even at an elementary level.

And now that I know a little more about engineering and structural systems, I might just have to enter this contest.
