TRIVIA TIME! Besides unfettered steel bridge enthusiasm, what does this year's Student Steel Bridge Competition (SSBC) have in common with the competition a couple of decades ago? Answer: This year's SSBC official rules allow up to two students from each team to act as "barges" to facilitate bridge construction from the river. As you can see in this photo of the University of Florida team 21 years ago, a similar rule applied back then, too. In fact, 2003 was the first time the rules allowed for barges--a feature that is especially helpful this year, with one of the widest rivers in SSBC history! SSBC regional competitions are all wrapped up (see the results at aisc.org/ssbc), and 49 student teams qualified for the national finals May 31 and June 1 at Louisiana Tech University. We're excited to see these teams shine in just a few weeks--if you're as excited as we are, make some time to put together our puzzle of the week at aisc.org/puzzles!

Here are those ASDSO cohorts I referenced in last week's post!
Last Week, ASDSO members visited Washington, DC, to participate in the American Society of Civil Engineers' Congressional Fly-In. ASDSO was represented by Keith Conrad, PE, WRS, John Roche, P.E., Gregory Daviero, John Moyle and Clint Oman. Together, they met with over 25 House and Senate offices to promote ASCE and ASDSO's legislative initiatives, which include reauthorization of the National Dam Safety Program and addressing difficulties surrounding the State Assistance and High Hazard Potential Dams Rehabilitation grants programs. Thank you to each of them for continuing ASDSO's work to highlight the importance of dam safety for members of Congress. #DamSafety

Buckle up! We're diving into a real hot topic here: the wood vs. steel debate 👀 Lumber's long tradition of being the deck framing material of choice has made it difficult for builders to deviate from what they know best. But people like Michael Scott, a Fortress® Alliance Member and the seasoned owner of Simcoe Decks out of Ontario, Canada, have made the switch from wood to steel and are now thrilled with the newfound reliability and strength of steel. Read our conversation with Michael: https://lnkd.in/g5rBfihM
