Episode 94 - Famous Failures
The Structural Engineering Podcast
This week we are looking at famous structural engineering failures. From the Hyatt Regency Collapse to Ronan Point there are a number of instances that have helped us develop our career and provide safer and more appealing (beautiful/Unique/Purposeful) structures to the world. Creating the built environment takes some mistakes, but only when we dont learn from them would you see them as a complete loss. THE structural trivia - Work in progress, we're better at Engineering than coding, but keep checking back! it gets better every day

Episode 87 - How strong is your understanding of UHPC?
The Structural Engineering Podcast
This weeks episode is about one of the most unique materials we have had in a while. Now you may say this is concrete, which we've been pretty good at since 1300 BC, and while that isnt incorrect, we say its so much more than stone, clay, and limestone from 3300 years ago, this is Ultra High Performance! So sit back and let us ask the dumb questions while we learn about UHPC, the many advantrages, and where we might see it in the future. Fun Links: Reach out to us: Email: [email protected]

Episode 86 - Succesfully Engineering A Career
The Structural Engineering Podcast
We are lucky enough to have one more episode with Scott Johnson this week. Scott was our primary host at Louisiana Pacific and works in the construction services sector. We had a short conversation with Scott about his career path and quickly decided we wanted to hear more. From the Marines to teaching Masonry design and finally wood elements, It seems Scott has seen it all, so join in, and I have a feeling you'll take some good lessons away from this conversation.
