Destroy and Rebuild
From building things to building buildings... And what happens when they go wrong! Join us as we find out what happens when buildings fail, and learn about the present and future of 3D printing and its many applications!
House Calls: Doctors Treat Humans, Forensic Engineers Treat Buildings
Amy Patrick
Knott Laboratory
A heavy truck's wheels punch through a parking garage deck. A retaining wall collapses. Wind blows an airplane hangar over. Glass panes in a high rise start falling onto pedestrians below. You call your insurance company, but who do they call?
Spend time with a forensic structural engineer to see how she uses science and engineering principles to figure out why structures fail. See gnarly photos and bask in the schadenfreude of design failures as you explore the world of diagnostic engineering!
