The Class of 2021 is providing structural engineering for Block G1, a 22-story office building located near the waterfront in Tampa, Florida. The project is sponsored by Industry Advisory Council member, DeSimone Consulting Engineers. Students will be challenged to design an efficient lateral system under the intense wind loads for this tall structure located in a hurricane prone region. Throughout the year, students will work in groups to conduct code review, gravity and lateral structural system studies, and finally a complete structural design. At the end of each semester, findings will be presented to a panel of faculty and structural engineering professionals.
