This episode Zach and I test our knowledge of an AISC design document, Design Guide #1 - Base Plate Connections. This is the first DG we read as we entered the working world, and we think its worthwhile to revisit this occasionally and make sure we're still keeping up.

Want to look at all the guides available? https://www.aisc.org/publications/design-guides/

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.

Work in progress, we're better at Engineering than coding, but keep checking back! it gets better every day

This episode zach and I have a great time discussing the seismic systems we've used, and have dreamed of using and the new systems and research coming out currently. This is a pretty fun roverview of the seismic systems available to us, so take a listen and check out all the links below.

This episode we are talking with Melissa Lanning, an architect with Infusion Architects based out of Colorado. Melissa is the first architect we've asked to be on the show, it took 5 years of practice but we're ready to talk with the most common client for structural engineers, and learn how we can navigate the structural/architectural work dynamic better to get the best final project.

You can find Infusion Architects: Here

Also, we are starting a structural trivia, Just one email a week, 6 questions total. Generally referencing code books, aiming for things we should have memorized anyway. A great way to stay sharp, don't just be the best in your office, prove it. Here or below
