Exciting times at the SAICE Western Cape Regional Bridge Building Competition!

🌉🏗️We’re currently on the ground at Zutari in Century City, witnessing the next generation of civil engineers in action.
🚀This isn't just about glue and dowel sticks; it's a high-stakes test of physics, structural integrity, and teamwork. Teams from across the province have only a few hours to design and construct a bridge that must span a specific ravine gap—all while racing against the clock.

What’s happening right now:
Design & Construction: Learners are applying mathematical reasoning and engineering theory to turn a simple kit of 25 dowel sticks and string into a load-bearing masterpiece.

Up next - Technical Adjudication: Judges will evaluate the structures for aesthetics and precise adherence to the rules.

The "Bridge Breaking": Soon, every bridge will be tested to destruction on a specialized loading rig to find its ultimate limit state. Some of these lightweight structures can hold hundreds of kilograms before they finally give way! Watch it live from 14:30 on Youtube: https://youtube.com/live/eMLPB9Pi-qs?feature=share

This competition is one of SAICE's initiatives for attracting bright young minds to the civil engineering profession, helping solve South Africa's future infrastructure challenges.

Follow along for our live walk-through to see these incredible designs before they hit the testing rig! 🎥👇

The SAICE FLP presents…

The Role of Geosynthetics in Sustainable Infrastructure

Join us for a technical talk on The Role of Geosynthetics in Sustainable Infrastructure. This session will introduce geosynthetics within the context of sustainable infrastructure, focusing on how they enable more efficient use of materials in civil engineering projects. The talk will cover their classification, common applications in roads, drainage, and earthworks, as well as key manufacturing processes. It will also explore the environmental benefits and limitations of geosynthetics, supported by practical examples from real projects.

Date: Thursday, 23 April 2026
Time: 14:00 – 16:00
