<br />
The day aimed to give girls an insight into the engineering professional and used bridges as a spring-board for this discovery. Year 8 girls from Sir Bernard Lovell School and ten female engineer university students were brought together for a design challenge.<br />
<br />
The students took part in a series of exercises, getting to know their mentors and finding out their motivation for becoming engineers, their favourite part of their job or course. The warm up exercise consisted of the teams constructing a bridge structure using only dried spaghetti and marshmallows, working in teams, prizes were given for the bridges that spanned at-least 10cm and were structurally sound enough to withstand the weight of a glue stick.<br />
<br />
After taking inspiration from the Architecture's bridge150 playing cards and a short presentation on bridge design the students had a new understanding of bridge engineering and were set their main task for the day: to design and build a small model of a bridge that could span the River Avon and connect the city to the soon to be built 12,000 capacity performance venue.<br />
<br />
The students and mentors collaborate to produce 2D designs, deliberating over the bridges' materials and functionality and planning the unique features. The teams then began to transform the design into 3D models. The design teams worked hard alongside their mentors, on completion of the designs, the students presented their models to the other teams and tutors for feedback. Each design was completely different but equally as creative and well though out.<br />
<br />
The day was an opportunity for the girls to be inspired by female professionals and gain and insight int to the career of engineering. The Architecture Centre would like to thank the following female professionals and university students for their valuable role of mentors:<br />
<br />
Pippa Goldfinger, Maria Pepper, Mariapia Angelino, Suzanne Evans, Felicia Baily, Emily Seabrook and Katie Troughton.<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The Architecture Centre was pleased to welcome renowned engineer Alan Baxter to speak about bridge engineering. He was joined by architects Martin Knight (Knight Architects) and Renato
Benedetti (McDowell + Benedetti) to discuss the collaborative approach
to bridge design. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Alan Baxter Associates has worked with both architects on a number of projects including Scale Lane Bridge in Hull which </span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">is featured as one of the case studies in the Desire Lines <a href="http://architecturecentre.co.uk/exhibitions-bridge150" target="_blank">exhibition</a>.</span><br />

Engineers vs ArchitectsA lively debate took place at Arnolfini, with over 180 people taking part.<br />
<br />
Since the 1990s architects have been increasingly involved in bridge design, but where has this left the engineer, and does it matter? This event, which took place at Arnolfini discussed how engineers and architects feel about their changing roles and the effect it has on bridge design.<br />
<br />
Chaired by Tanya Ross (<a href="http://www.burohappold.com/" target="_blank">BuroHappold Engineering</a>) and featuring Jim Eyre, Julian Elton, Hugh Pearman and Ian Firth.<br />

Urban Wanderings: The Avon New Cut - Saturday 20 September<br />
<br />
A special boat tour took place for September's Urban Wanderings, the tour took in the Clifton Suspension Bridge before sailing a route down the Avon New Cut to hear stories behind some of the bridges that cross it, as well as the history and development in the surrounding area.<br />
<br />
With over twenty bridges en route through the Floating Harbour all the way out to Netham (and back again), this bout tour offered a chance to view Bristol from a rare and fascinating angle.<br />

Our #bridge150 marquee was bursting at the seams with marshmallow, spaghetti and a varity of colourful construction materials from the <a href="http://www.childrensscrapstore.co.uk/" target="_blank">Children's Scrapstore</a>. Over two fun filled days, hundreds of visitors of all ages, designed and built their own model bridges to span our very own Bristol river, meandering its way across College Green in the <a href="http://www.cirquebijou.co.uk/" target="_blank">Cirque Bijou</a> family zone of the festival.<br />
