Tower Builder Module

Join us for a hands-on demonstration focused on the full tower optimization process using MATLAB and SAP software. This session is designed to guide you through data collection, systematic optimization techniques, and group collaboration strategies. You will learn to identify members of your design with highlighters, prepare for successful trials, and analyze results effectively. Remember to prepare your tower in advance, bring materials, and engage actively in peer evaluations. Capture your progress with photos for your report!
