The Structural Engineering Podcast

Welcome 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.

The hosts discuss their favorite trusses, including Verandil, Pratt, Howard, Lenticular, Bailey, and Howe trusses. They explore the history, development, and types of trusses in structural engineering. The lenticular trust, lattice trusses, and prominent engineers are also discussed.

On this episode we hear it right from the horses mouth. What's it like to take the PE? and If you have to, what is it like to take it twice. In addition, we talk about the history of the test, and why some people want it gone.

Exploring the importance of building separation joints, particularly seismic joints, in preventing structural damage. Discussing the evolution of building separations and joints, the different types of joints in structural engineering, and the importance of joints in construction and stability. Emphasizing the need for proper attachment and understanding of control joints to avoid catastrophic failures.

If you're familiar with the term "frenemy", this is how many engineers might describe a plans reviewer. Plans reviewers hold the key to getting your project through city/county approval. It's an important step in assuring we have safe buildings to live and work in., and..... it can be kinda annoying. Sit down this week and learn what plans reviewers look for in a project, what is a clean calc packet, and probably the best job search advise we've heard yet.
