MODEL WATER TOWER

BUILDING COMPETITION

 
The Model Water Tower Competition provides students with an opportunity to practice real-world STEM principles in a fun and creative way.

 

Students are required to creatively design and build a water tower based on size and height requirements. The models are judged based on 4 categories including: cost efficiency, hydraulic efficiency, structural efficiency, design ingenuity. Students will also be judged on a fifth category, interview presentation, during which students will be asked to discuss their design and building process.
