The semi-final, also called the Engineering round, is the race between 28 contestants including two parts, Knowledge and Model Design. In the Knowledge section, which accounts for 25% of the final score, the contestants have to answer virtually 25 questions on topics covering knowledge about mechanics, English, and social issues.

Accounting for the remaining 75% of the final score, the Model Design component requires the contestants to utilize the Planner 5D mobile phone app to design an apartment with specified dimensions. Students then will have a week to construct and complete their model meeting several criteria, including Function, Form, and Creativity. The five entries with the highest scores in the semi-final will be advance to the final round (scheduled to take place on August 28, 2021).
