Airframe

Airframe is responsible for designing and manufacturing the internal rocket structure. This sub-team also runs simulations and analyzes structural parts. If you are interested in mechanical design, this sub-team is the one!!

On the Airframe team, you could be working on:

• Designing the internal structures of the rocket
• Running different simulations (Structural, Topology, Thermal, etc.) using SOLIDWORKS to ensure the designs work!
• Designing tubes and nose cones using composite analysis
• Working with other sub-teams to make sure they fit inside the rocket
• Machining parts and fabricating the rocket
• Contacting vendors to ensure the proper manufacturing of different parts
