The competition, sponsored by the United States Department of Energy, is a real world, hands-on event.
"I can say I put up the structurally-insulated panels, I've done the tiling in the bathroom, I helped with the dry wall, the finishing, the painting, you name it, I think I've had my hands on it," said a Catholic University of America student.
The winner of the decathlon will be announced Saturday.
