Used to Load BridgeNewA 1000lb Q-Test tensile/compression machine was adapted for use in the bridge testing. Thebottom grip is removed and a support structure put in its place. This structure has a span of 22inches to accommodate the 24 inch long bridge. The upper grip is replaced with a welded steelU- shape. On the bottom of the U are openings for insertion of the steel rod(s). The machine isthen put into compression mode at a constant speed. The software controlling the machine isTestworks 3 from MTS. The loading is much smoother than before and the bridge top staysparallel to the ground. Since using this new method, the students are happier with the testingprocedure. More ‘A’ grades have resulted than with the old tester. The new tester is

The Symposium continues with the students’ oral presentations of theirwork and obtained results. Each presentation was followed by a brief Q&A session, duringwhich the audience asked the students pertinent questions about their research topic. Also, foreach presentation the AB members filled out an evaluation rubric to be utilized for feedbackpurposes. Furthermore, a poster session was held during the extended lunch break.

Participants saw the destructive results of high-powerlasers from some samples available in the College’s high powered laser laboratory.The favorite experiments were definitely the holograms and the high-power laser demonstration,and possibly the alignment exercise. Least favorites were the monochromator and thepolarization-sensitivity experiments.

The purpose is to allow students theopportunity to honestly present their ideas and get feedback on their designs before entering theExecuting Processes.
