University of Toronto Seismic Design Team

Toronto, ON, CA • 20 - 49 Employees
Architecture Firm/Engineering Firm

We are a team of undergraduate students that participates in the annual EERI seismic design competition (https://slc.eeri.org/aboutsdc/). As the only UofT engineering design team that focuses on structural and seismic engineering, our team provides our members with valuable opportunities to explore civil, structural, and seismic engineering concepts through a hands-on design project. Working in a multidisciplinary team of civil engineering, engineering science, and architecture students, our members learn how to independently manage projects, use industry standard modelling and analysis software, and expand their knowledge of seismic engineering. We also host tutorials and workshops where students from the undergraduate engineering community and beyond can learn how to use modelling software and participate in the construction process.
