Steel Bridge is an annual competition held by the Pacific Southwest Symposium (PSWS). Universities from across the country participate every year to which a different scenario is presented for students to apply the knowledge gained through their academic careers in order to satisfy the design specifications. Competitors are ranked on the basis of structural efficiency and construction economy.  
 


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
This competition is entirely student-based which means students will design, fabricate, and construct the bridge themselves. The purpose of Steel Bridge is for student members to develop skills in leadership and teamwork while also providing a fun way to interact with peers.
