Episode 53 - Misunderstood Seismic Principles

Gosh it's been a long time since we've put out an episode, but we're starting this season on a high note. Our first interview this year was with Emily Guglielmo, a principle at Martin and Martin, and a member of the ASCE 7 wind and seismic committees. We learned a ton talking with her over an hour and decided to split the episode up in to bite sized chunks. With that, enjoy part 1 of 2, and check back shortly for the next one.Also, we've started a little newsletter. Now I know more email is not what most people are looking for, but we're hoping you'll make an exception. Every Tuesday morning we send out a short snip highlighting the most important engineering related story of the past week, as well as a 1 minute trivia for those studying for an exam or looking to stay sharp.

Episode 48 - Performance Based Structural Fire Design

We're talking with Kevin Lamalva this week of Warrington Fire all about PBSFD. If you've never heard of this, in short, its using additional strength within the structure and rigorous analysis over a "blind" application of fireproofing material. There are a number of advantages here, from potential cost savings to a more defined level of performance. Traditional fire rating is terribly outdated, and PBSFD is on it's way to becoming a competitive technique. Kevin is the Author of many design guides, references, and white papers on the topic, and is truly one of the experts in the field.

Episode 47 - Intro to Fire

Warning: This is not an episode we know all that much about! We talked with Kevin LaMalva who wrote the book (many of them) on performance based fire engineering. This is not that episode, that comes next. Before we get to the high level, Zach and I try to learn for ourselves what the IBC says about fire proofing, how it is applied, and what structural engineers should know.  Website: theengineeringpodcast.comEmail: [email protected]: @structure_3dLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/structural-engineering-podcastFaceBook: facebook.com/structuralpodcastYouTube: youtu.be/KMSE1Nywa3E

Episdoe 46 - Fast+Epp, a lot more than mass timber

Fast + Epp has become world renown for innovative and beautiful design in mass timber. As a fairly small firm with 35 years of experience behind them they have managed to work on some of the most exciting and structurally creative projects you're likely to see across the US, Canada, and Europe. We talk with Ian Boyle, one of the principals of Fast + Epp about not just mass timber, but the design philosophies of Fast + Epp and much more.Enjoy Website: theengineeringpodcast.comEmail: [email protected]: @structure_3dLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/structural-engineering-podcastFaceBook: facebook.com/structuralpodcastYouTube: youtu.be/KMSE1Nywa3E

Episode 44 - Skinny Braces

This week we're talking with Thor Matteson, A structural engineer in California, and the inventor of Skinny Braces. These unique braces attach a ductile fuse to an old fashioned cantilever column system to create a chimera of unmatched R value. Or really, you get to use an R=6.5, just like a wood framed shear wall. This gives you all the benefits of a cantilever column system without the huge footings and low R. The skinny brace is aptly named because it takes up a tiny amount of space compared to the competitors in the soft story retrofit space.

Episode #11 - High Seismic System in Low Seismic Region

This week we are discussing the use of seismic systems with a high response modification factor (R) in a low to moderate seismic regions. You might be surprised to hear many opportunities to use these highly ductile systems in places you never thought.
