HALL OF THE YEAR ACADEMIC COMPETITION
An international competition open to students of technical universities in Bachelor’s and Master’s degree studies.
Make a team of 2 – 3 students and take part in the competition!
The contestants task is to design and build a model of a section of an aircraft hangar structure under which an aerobatic aircraft can “pass”. The model must meet the specified geometric, material and structural requirements.
Please refer to the rules for the exact assignment.
The competition is announced in the category of models prepared in advance. The evaluation criterion in the competition is the model´s effectiveness, i.e. the ratio between the model’s load-bearing capacity and weight.
The competition day will take place at the Faculty of Civil Engineering CTU in Prague on 9. 4. 2024. The models will be exposed to a load tests there.
The Hall of the Year Academic competition is held under the patronage of the Dean of the Faculty of Civil Engineering CTU in Prague, prof. Ing. Jiří Máca, CSc., and The Czech Chamber of Chartered Engineers and Technicians
The professional guarantor of the competition in the Department of Architectural Engineering.
This year’s task is the production of a model of a conveyor belt support structure. The assignment is specified in detail in the competition rules.
The registration of competing teams is open until 31st March 2023 at 12:00
The competition day finals will take place at the Faculty of Civil Engineering CTU in Prague on 19. 4. 2023. The models will be exposed to a load test there.

Yout task is to design a model of a structure following the assignment instructions, build the model in home, and subsequently load it up to the point of collapse during the finals held at the Faculty of Civil Engineering CTU in Prague. The model must comply with the assigned structural and weight limits, as well as the time set for the load test. The final ranking of the models reflects the effectiveness of the model, i.e. the ratio between the total load capacity of the model and its own weight.

History
The Hall of the Year competition originated in 1986. The competition was originally intended for students of the Faculty of Civil Engineering of the CTU, but later it was also opened to students of other universities of technical specializations. Since 2007, secondary school students have also participated in the special Junior category. In 2023, the Advanced category is newly announced for doctoral degree students.
