Episode 82 - Financial Engineering
The Structural Engineering Podcast
This week is unique for us, as it's not a direct structural engineering resource but it's a topic that I am certain you need to understand while you plan out your career. Zach and I are talking with Ryan Sullivan, an engineer who left his design job to go after a passion in financial planning. This is a great story for all the engineers with a pocket full of "numbers" questions, and we finally have the right person to ask. So join in while we learn how we should think about this critical, and engineering adjacent, decision framework for your work life. Ryan Website can be found here:...

Episode 76 - Building Tall
The Structural Engineering Podcast
This episode we get the chance to continue our conversation with Jordan Jarrett and learn about a unique design challenge that very few engineers get the opportunity to work on, but we all "literally" look up to. We're talking about tall buildings today, and learning how they work and in what way's they're different than our normal office buildings. Below are some great links on the subject including many of the buildings we discussed: Park Tower: Tower in Amazon Campus: 150 North Riverside: SkyRise Miami: Reach out to us: Email: [email protected]
info_outlineWelcome back! We're excited to begin season 2 and we're kicking it off with a bang! Zach and I got to talk with Konrad and Mohammed of Dynamic Isolation Systems. They School us on everything isolation, and we learn why engineers need to communicate better.
We're trying something new this year to help keep the podcast up and running and hopefully get even better. If you've learned something from our guests, consider becoming a patron of the show with the link https://www.patreon.com/SEPodcast
