Janice Lee '09 working on a model of a building designed by Spanish architect and structural engineer Felix Candela.
The model is for an exhibition "Felix Candela: Engineer, Builder, Artist" at the Princeton University Art Museum, a collaboration with the School of Engineering and Applied Science. Undergraduate and graduate students in civil and environmental engineering were given major works of Candela's to analyze and model in a project led by Maria Garlock, an assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering and David Billington, Gordon Y. S. Wu Professor of Engineering, professor of civil and environmental engineering, and director of the Program in Architecture and Engineering,
All of the student-created scale models can be seen in the exhibition, which opened this past weekend, October 11, and runs through February 22, 2009.
