This is a competitive event designed to challenge and showcase the skills of civil engineering students. It focuses on important areas like modeling, analysis and design of a specified building structure. Participants will be using ETABS developed by Computers and Structures Inc. (CSI) used for the analysis and design of building structures.
Here are a few resources that will be helpful in preparing for this hackathon competition.
CSI Bangkok will be hosting more events like this including an online version of this challenge (available soon) for interested students and professional to give the software project a try.
