PolySDL-STRUCTURAL DESIGN LAB
at Florida Polytechnic University
Active learning in Civil Engineering through structural design, modeling, testing, and experimentation


Design, model, test, and explore how structures behave
PolySDL is the Structural Design Lab at Florida Polytechnic University. It is being developed as an active learning space where Civil Engineering students engage with structural design, modeling, testing, and experimentation through physical, digital, and hybrid activities.The goal of the lab is to strengthen the connection between theory and real structural behavior through project-based learning, physical models, structural analysis, and design-build-test experiences.
This website documents the vision and growth of the lab, shares activities and student projects, and will provide access to the PolySDL Activities Handbook.
