Welcome to the ASCE/Steel Bridge Site

Our goal first and foremost is to learn as a group the skills required to complete and succeed with a project. Steel bridge requires a tremendous commitment from a group of students if we are to be successful. So it is imperative for us to succeed that we build a team.

As a team it is our goal to place well at regional competition and advance to nationals. The last of our goals is to build a frame work for steel bridge to continuously succeed at UMKC. In the past we have had the problem of knowledge and relationships being lost when seniors graduate and move on. What we would like to do is to put measures in place that allow us to pass on everything we learn and develop such that each year we have a wider breadth of information and resources to use. Also important to this plan is being able to recruit freshmen and sophomore students where as last year our team was composed primarily of juniors and seniors who had never been involved with the competition before, this made everything extremely difficult.
