Facing strong international competition, the team demonstrated exceptional commitment, ingenuity, and a strong grasp of engineering fundamentals, earning recognition for both the department and Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology. Their project integrated fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement to develop durable, corrosion-resistant structural solutions. By applying core concepts of mechanics and concrete technology, they designed an efficient system that minimizes reinforcement costs without compromising performance. Additionally, the use of locally sourced recyclable materials contributed to reducing nearly one-third of the concrete self-weight.

Despite disruptions that prevented student members from attending the event in person, the work was represented on-site by faculty advisor 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟. 𝐃𝐫. 𝐀.𝐅.𝐌. 𝐒𝐚𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐀𝐦𝐢𝐧, who was present in Rosemont, Chicago alongside 𝐃𝐫. 𝐀𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐇𝐚𝐬𝐧𝐚𝐭, ensuring effective representation and support throughout the competition.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Gestra Engineering, Inc. for their generous sponsorship and unwavering support in enabling student participation and travel to Rosemont, Chicago; and to Shah Cement and Baral Chemical Company Ltd. for providing free samples and valuable material support.

একুশ মানে শুধুই একটি দিন নয়—এটি আত্মত্যাগে নির্মিত এক চিরন্তন ইতিহাস, এক অম্লান চেতনার প্রতীক। শহীদদের রক্তে অর্জিত আমাদের মাতৃভাষার অধিকার—এই বাংলা ভাষাই আমাদের গর্ব ও আত্মপরিচয়। ACI BUET Student Chapter র পক্ষ থেকে গভীর শ্রদ্ধা সেই নির্ভীক সন্তানের প্রতি, যাঁরা নিজের জীবন বিসর্জন দিয়ে আমাদের হাতে তুলে দিয়েছেন মাতৃভাষা বাংলার মর্যাদা।
