The Structural Engineering Podcast

This week Max and Zach sit down with the guys from Structuralengineeringbasics.com to discuss high rise design, and a little about the courses they provide. We hear some great stories about design in Dubai and an exciting project with some unique challenges in Canada. We recommend checking out their website at www.structuralengineeringbasics.com and If you'd like to check out their courses use code SEP25OFF for 25% off!We're trying something new this year to help keep the podcast up and running and hopefully get even better.

This week is a quick Max-and-Zach-isode. No guests, just the two of us giving our two cents on the use of BIM and its alternatives in the construction world. That's 4 cents total to start off your Thursday morning. We understand a lot of podcasts right now are a bit of a downer, and rightfully so, hopefully this one keeps the mood light as a nice distraction.

The podcast discusses high seismic design questions, including working with architects and design codes. They explore impressive construction of a building in 10 days using modular units. They also discuss efficient thermal envelopes with poly isocyanurate foam, high seismic regions in the US, choosing a seismic system, lateral force resolving systems, analyzing seismic design, and irregularities in structures impacting stability.

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.
