Come check out our Women in Industry Panel. ‍♀️   Academic Package #2: The World Trade Center, 5 PMm 31st August. Ever wondered how strong our skyscrapers really are? Wondered how much time do we really have to escape a building? Considered how our 'best friend' can help us design to prevent disasters? SUCE is proud to announce the second event of our Academic Seminar PEP Package, 'Learning from disasters' with Tim Wilkinson. The “thirty-year rule” often refers to the generational gap in the engineering community when the impact or memory of a major disaster starts to lose its immediacy and memory. We will consider a variety of disasters in the last 200 years, in particular the World Trade Centre, and what we have learned from them. 🛬 The attack on the World Trade Centres claimed the lives of 3000 people and shook an entire generation. We will retrace the path on how the WTC collapsed despite surviving impacts from a Boeing 767 travelling at full speed. How did the material and structural design contribute to the collapse and what key lessons in structural, material, and risk management can we learn from it? Don' forget your best friend!
