Troitsky Bridge Building is an engineering design team that creates bridges to compete at Concordia University’s annual Troitsky Bridge Building Competition.
This event is held in Montreal and consists of testing model bridges under a hydraulic press, developing structural analysis reports, drafting and recommending applications in a real-world setting. Participating teams come from engineering programs across Canada and the US.
Within our school, multiple teams participate each year, providing many students with the opportunity of competition experience. In addition to participating in the competition, we host many workshops and events to improve our understanding of the competition elements. These efforts have resulted in our school winning 1st place for three years in a row, as well as ranking in 3rd place.
Troitsky is an excellent opportunity for anyone interested in structural engineering, construction, project management and design, regardless of their background knowledge.
