Inside Who Forted and Construction Zone

Who Forted?

When you arrive in the exhibit, you’ll discover a wide range of engineering and building materials ready for you. Some may look familiar—like blankets, and climbing hooks. Others, like plumbing fittings and industrial components, might be new. Your challenge? Use these materials to engineer the fort of your dreams, developing problem-solving skills and exploring concepts essential to careers in engineering and construction.

Construction Zone

The Construction Zone is specially designed to engage people of all ages and abilities in hands-on building and exploration. Featuring a dig pit, slide, and construction house, the exhibit introduces visitors to real-world tools and materials commonly used in engineering and construction. We believe the experience is even more rewarding when the whole family works together on a building challenge, combining unique perspectives to solve problems. This experience aims to inspire curiosity and build foundational skills, fostering interest in careers in engineering, construction, and related fields.
