Another successful Bridgemania STEM camp is in the books! Once again, High Steel Structures LLC partnered with The Lancaster Science Factory to teach thirteen youths about bridge design and steel fabrication. From building model bridges to experiencing welding at High Steel, it was an unforgettable experience. A huge shoutout to High Steel’s coworker volunteers for making it possible!
This summer, High Steel partnered with the The Lancaster Science Factory Factory in presenting our seventh Bridgemania STEM camp! Thirteen youth in grades 4-8 learned about bridge design fundamentals and steel fabrication with hands-on lessons. Campers built model truss bridges with balsa wood kits which were tested and rated for load bearing efficiency. Other fun activities included working together to build a DaVinci bridge and arches, studying stability with pasta and marshmallows, and anchoring two types of cable bridges. To celebrate the last day camp, the group traveled to High Steel to tour our fabrication facilities and experience welding steel. Special thanks to our co-worker volunteers for making Bridgemania 2024 an unforgettable experience for all! #STEMeducation #steelbridges #highsteel
