Faculty of Civil Engineering conducted workshops as part of the Junior and Senior Technical University
Another edition of the Junior and Senior Technical University is behind us. On Saturday, 19 March 2022, employees of the Department of Construction Processes and Building Physics: Dr Krzysztof Tykowski, Dr Arch. Ewa Terczyńska, Dr. Eng. Anita Pawlak-Jakubowska and Dr. Eng. Piotr Dudzik prepared and carried out an interactive workshop "What connects a spine, a bridge and a rover wandering on other planets".
During the workshop young science enthusiasts were introduced to the concept of tensegrity as a structural element in which tensile and compression elements are mutually stabilized. The end result was the construction of several geometric spatial structures, which workshop participants took home with them.
