Thank you to all our unbelievable 2010 sponsors from the UW Steel Bridge team!
The UW Steel Bridge Team greatly appreciates our sponsors and their generous donations to our organization. Please click on their logos or web addresses to visit their web sites to learn more about these companies. Without our sponsors, we would not be able to represent the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and would not be able to teach young engineering students the valuable lessons learned through the competition. If you would like to become a sponsor and learn more about helping out the UW Steel Bridge Team, please email bridge@cae.wisc.edu or visit our Sponsor Benefits page. |

We can't say enough about Endres Manufacturing Company. For nine years now, they have graciously donated hours and hours of fabrication for our Steel Bridge Team. We'd like to thank Ken Ballweg, the President of Endres Mfg. who makes everything possible. Another big thanks to the fabrication crew, especially Mike Bush (expert welder), Wayne Hellenbrand (expert welder), Bill Walker (expert machinist), Rod Endres (shearing machinist), Steve, and Connie Lange. Endres Manufacturing Co. has been in business for over 77 years. Located in Waunakee, WI, they specialize in smaller and medium sized structural steel projects. Their staple product is their blue painted piers. The next time you're on a lake, take a look for one.
