Title: Western University Civil and Environmental Engineering Design Project Winners
Abstract: For more than 20 years the City of London and Western Engineering have partnered to engage 4th year students in a capstone design competition. Student teams work on real – world projects proposed by the City with the support of Faculty and external advisors . The final designs highlight innovative materials and construction techniques while providing value and aesthetic benefit to the City. In this presentation, winning teams from this year’s City of London Competition will present their designs for a pedestrian bridge over the Thames river linking the SoHo neighbourhood to Watson St. Park, a replacement for the culvert carrying Mud Creek under the CNR tracks and sewer separation along York St. between Colborne St. and the Thames river.
