The Salt Lake City Bicycle Collective is supplying parts and mechanical support to the bright young minds of the McGillis School’s Human Powered Vehicles Engineering Elective.  Joe Norman, the teacher of these future engineers, and the students themselves will be taking pictures – so check back.

“This elective will expose students to various engineering principles through hands-on projects and fabrication of mechanisms, specifically human powered vehicles.  Topics include forces and stresses, power and energy use, aerodynamics, material properties, project scheduling and management, among others.  Students will survey various methods of human-powered locomotion, design their own through sketches and scale models, and attempt to complete a full-scale working human powered vehicle by the end of the trimester.”
