This question is meant to prompt you to expound on a structural engineering project that interests you. It's a chance to show off some technical knowledge about a project that you didn't actually work on. The interviewer is trying to gauge whether or not you have a passion for structural engineering and are willing to learn more about the field outside of your normal working hours.
"My all-time favorite structural engineering project is the Golden Gate Bridge. It remains one of the most stunning bridges ever constructed by man. I can't imagine the level of engineering expertise and acumen that went into designing a structure like that without modern computing and drafting technology."

I think it would be the Burj Khalifa in UAE. Regardless of its status as the tall building in the world, the building was fascinating and I drew inspiration from the fact that it was the regional desert lily that gave rise to the tower's concept. I am always the most fascinated when structures are inspired by nature.
