The Eiffel Tower is almost complete! This is something I never thought I would say as a Structural Engineer but we are fortunate to be be the Structural Engineers for this unique project and amazing Exhibit for the city of Indianapolis. This 66 foot tall replica will stand to commemorate the Indy hosting the Olympic Swimming trials for the Paris Olympics! We have had an amazing team that all came together to deliver this for the Indiana Sports Corp! Great work to the JQOL team, specifically Nathan Tomerlin, Niraj Shrestha, and Jerica Barlow, PE. I also want to thank F.A. Wilhelm Construction, Poynter Sheet Metal, and Latinas Welding Guild Inc for the amazing work putting this together! #qualityoflife

Jarvis, I just screenshotted this and sent it to my son, who is in high school on the engineering path, and said... "Engineers do really cool stuff!" Thanks for sharing. :)

I have to wonder, did you pour foundations for a temporary structure? If not, how do you anchor this to prevent overturning?

Have you checked this out already, Chris Harrison, RA, AIA, NCARB?!
