The spring 2013 hackNY student hackathon brought in hundreds of students to Columbia University's Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science April 6-7 for 24 hours of creative collaborative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
NYC Startups, selected by a student organizing committee, presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, after which students formed groups to work through the night implementing their own ideas for fresh hacks built on top of these APIs.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel featuring members of the NYC startup community, which selected the final winning teams.
Since April 2010, hackNY hosts student hackathons one each semester, as well as the hackNY Fellows program, a structured internship which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment: a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup in NYC.

Mechanical Contractor required the hoist and removal of three 125 ton compressed oxygen bullet tanks. The constraints of the site allowed for the lift of the tanks by a Manitowoc 16000 with the optional "hanging" Max-er counterweight. Total load on the soil in excess of 1-1/2 Million pounds.

Each page has a photo and caption identifying the road. The book helps complete a picture of what road building was like in the tropics in 1900. Workers with hand tools make cuts, blast rocks, lay the first course of macadam.

The Pamban Bridge on the Palk Strait connects Rameswaram to mainland India. This is a cantilever railway bridge, It was India's first sea bridge. It is the second longest sea bridge in India (after Bandra-Worli Sea Link) at a length of about 2.3 km.
This picture was shot from the road bridge that runs parallel to the railway bridge
The railway bridge is about 2 KM and was opened for traffic in 1914. The railroad bridge is a still-functioning double-leaf bascule bridge section that can be raised to let ships pass under the bridge.
The railway bridge historically carried meter-gauge trains on it, but Indian Railways upgraded the bridge to carry broad-gauge trains Until recently, the two leaves of the bridge were opened manually using levers by workers. About 10 ships — cargo carriers, coast guard ships, fishing vessels and oil tankers — pass through the bridge every month.
This bridge is supposed to be located at the world's second highly corrosive environment, next to Miami, US, making the construction a challenging job. The location is also a cyclone-prone high wind velocity zone.

The Corliss Centennial Engine was an all-inclusive, specially built rotative beam engine that powered virtually all of the exhibits at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia in 1876 through shafts totaling over a mile in length. Switched on by President Ulysses S. Grant and Emperor Dom Pedro of Brazil, the engine was in public view for the duration of the festivities.
