Teknokrat Indonesia University continues to support its students to be able to develop their potential according to their interests and talents.
The S1 Civil Engineering Study Program carried out the Balsa Bridge Tensile Strength Test activity, which was attended by new civil engineering students in the class of 2023.
The purpose of the activity is to provide basic knowledge to new students about the procedures for making bridges made from balsa wood, which will later be included in the bridge competition.
The Vice Rector of Teknokrat Indonesia University, Dr. H. Mahathir Muhammad, SE, MM, said that this activity is a form of developing students’ abilities because civil engineering students must be able to calculate the strength of a building or bridge that will be designed.
“This activity will be an experience and provision for civil engineering students later in the world of work because, as a designer of a building, you must be able to take into account the risks and possibilities of the building you design.” Dr. Mahathir said.
