Great Northern Concrete Toboggan Race : ウィキペディア英語版 | Great Northern Concrete Toboggan Race
The Great Northern Concrete Toboggan Race (GNCTR) is an annual event that challenges the creativity of engineering students. The competition originated in 1974 and was created by Dr. S. H. Simmonds, president of the Alberta chapter of the American Concrete Institute.〔GNCTR Calgary () Accessed May 8, 2012〕 The first race was held in 1975 with participants from the University of Alberta, University of Calgary, Northern Alberta Institute of Technology, and SAIT Polytechnic.〔GNCTR '99 () Accessed May 8, 2012〕 Since its beginning, GNCTR has grown to include universities and technical schools from across Canada with occasional entries from the United States and Europe. ==Rules== The project involves designing and constructing a toboggan with a metal frame and a running surface made completely out of concrete and racing it down a steep snow-covered hill. The sled must weigh less than 350 pounds (160 kg), have a working braking system, and be fitted with a roll bar to protect its five passengers. Each competing team must complete a technical report summarizing the design, which is presented at a public technical exhibition.
