Giant Jenga \u2013 <\/strong>If you spend your days building and making things, it might be cathartic to spend an hour or 2 taking something apart. Giant Jenga is just what it sounds like\u2014 the Jenga puzzle game, but 5 feet high. We\u2019ll have one match for architects and civil engineer<\/a>s<\/u> and another for product managers and designers<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Dominoes \u2013 <\/strong>Lay those tiles and stack those chips. We\u2019ll be hosting 2 different tournaments of this classic strategy game, one for architects, MEP, and structural engineers<\/u><\/a>\u00a0and another for contractors and sub-contractors<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Lawn Bowling<\/strong> \u2013 Get those bowls to the head, friends! This sport, popular in the UK and Australia, involves rolling biased (as in slightly lopsided) balls with the goal of getting them closest to the white jack. It\u2019s a lot like bocce ball, but the balls don\u2019t roll straight. Trust us, it\u2019s a hoot. We\u2019ll have one match for architects, MEP and structural engineering<\/u><\/a>\u00a0folks, and another for CAD managers<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Trivia <\/strong>\u2013 Test your knowledge under pressure with a trivia competition focused on topics related to Autodesk, AU, and beyond. We\u2019ll have one competition for engineers and design visualization professionals<\/u><\/a>, another for architects and civil engineers<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Marshmallow Challenge \u2013 <\/strong>Have you ever had more fun with a bag of marshmallows and a stack of toothpicks? If so, we don\u2019t want to know the details. Put your engineering skills to the test by creating a stable structure with these components\u2014no 3D modeling allowed in advance. There\u2019s one competition for architects, MEP and structural engineering professionals<\/u><\/a>, one for CAD, BIM and VDC managers<\/u><\/a>, one for civil engineers and surveyors<\/u><\/a>, and another for contractors and sub-contractors<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Brain Teasers <\/strong>\u2013<\/strong>Get those synapses firing with folks from your industry. We\u2019ll have a puzzle event for CAD, BIM and VDC managers<\/u><\/a>, one for architects, MEP, and structural engineering professionals<\/u><\/a>, one for engineers and design visualization<\/a><\/u> folks, and another for people attending the Smart Manufacturing track<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Corn hole \u2013<\/strong> We can\u2019t believe that\u2019s the real name for this game either, but hey, culture is culture. Test your aim with one event for CAD, BIM and VDC \u00a0managers<\/u><\/a> and another for structural and civil engineers<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Lego Architecture Studio Challenge \u2013 <\/strong>Build it and they will come. Alternatively: come and you will build it. Brick it with others from your field as you compete to create the best Lego structure. We\u2019ll have one event for architects and design viz professionals<\/u><\/a>, one for engineers<\/u><\/a>, and another for mechanical engineers and media & entertainment professionals<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n Photo Scavenger Hunt \u2013<\/strong> Start with a list of unusual photos you need to take, then go and snap them around AU. We\u2019ll have one competition for CAD managers<\/u><\/a>, one for architects and design visualization professionals<\/u><\/a>, one for product designers and design <\/u><\/a>visualization <\/a>people<\/u>, and another for 3D artists<\/u><\/a>. Bring your phone!<\/p>\n Ring Toss \u2013<\/strong> Get it on the peg, people! With one event for architects and civil engineers<\/u><\/a> and another for contractors and sub-contractors<\/u><\/a>, make sure your aim is true.<\/p>\n Check out the full list of meetup activities:<\/p>\n Brain Teasers for Architects, MEP & Structural Engineers Get your AU pass before prices increase on October 17th.
