NOMINATIONS

SECOND ANNUAL

DOMESDAY A SMASHING

SUCCESS

Eleven teams from eight different schools came to

MS&T15 this year to compete in the 2nd annual ASM Geo-

desic Dome Design Competition, DomesDay. Virginia Tech’s

VT Composites Team won first place with $1000. Virginia

Tech’s Metals Team came in second, winning $750. Third

place went to the Sun Devil Dome from Arizona State, with

$500. Teams were judged based on an elevator speech, aes-

thetics, and mechanical strength, the last of which saw the

dome being compression tested in front of a live audience

on the convention floor.

DomesDay was established in 2014 by the ASM Stu-

dent Board Members. It is intended to familiarize Material

Advantage students with a piece of ASM culture, the Dome,

by involving them in a design and materials selection com-

petition. For more information, visit

asminternational.org/ students/domesday-competition. S

pecial thanks to our

sponsors, NSL Analytical and MTS.
