Structural Engineering is a profession that studies and applies the laws of math and physics to predict building behavior and design the “bones” of man-made structures. The language of structural engineering can seem overwhelming for non-engineers, but this podcast will change that. Fluent in steel, concrete masonry and timber design, Kari Sebern, P.E. simplifies major concepts of structural design, both enlightening non-engineers about structural design and inspiring experienced engineers to look at things differently. Join Kari and fellow industry leading engineers as they dissect the structural design of buildings. From within your walls, they'll tell the story behind their design and how the building stands today.

    033: FullStack Modular with Roger Krulak and David Farnsworth, PE

    In this episode, we talk with Roger Krulak, Founder and Principal at FullStack Modular and David Farnsworth, PE, Principal at Arup.  We talk about the best project delivery system and about options available for modular construction.   Roger and David have worked on numerous modular construction projects, creating structures that exceed 20 stories tall, truly building onsite Lego-like structures.   We dig into scope of work delineation, floorplan flexibility and how modular constructed high rise structures are able to resist site loading such as high seismic forces.  By being involved from project inception, both parties- the manufacturer and structural engineer – are able to convey their respective requirements and continuously elevate the limits of modular construction in a truly impressive way.

    032: Bonnet Springs Park with Julian Lineham, PE

    In this episode, Julian Lineham, PE, Founding Principal at Studio NYL, talks about the Bonnett Springs Park project.  This site was previously inaccessible due to an abandoned rail line.  So by removing the abandoned line, many acres of land were suddenly opened up and accessible.  This project includes the design and construction of several buildings throughout the site but our talk focuses on four main buildings: the Event Center, Welcome Center, Children’s Museum and Nature Center.   Materials included mass timber and CLT (cross laminated timber) and concrete and steel.   Listen in to hear how soil challenges were addressed and to also hear how sustainability aspects were worked into the design of these structures.

    029: Wildflower Studio with Dena Prastos, AIA - Part 2

    In the second portion of this special two part series, we talk about the necessity of sustainability extending beyond the design phase.  Dena and Indigo River also have a vested interest in offshore wind generation and training programs for implementation.   We also get into Dena’s dream for the future of the profession. Waterfront Architecture is Dena Prastos, AIA niche design market.  With degrees in civil engineering, in architecture and from Harvard Business School, Dena brings a diverse background as the Founder and CEO of Indigo River.  Waterfront architect, civil engineer, futurist, climate adaptation expert, entrepreneur, and creative original, Dena is driven to transform the built world at the water’s edge. Indigo River brings a transdisciplinary approach to waterfront architecture, resiliency and climate adaptation and is a leading authority in New York Harbor and beyond.  In this episode we talk specficaly about the Wildflower Studio which is located at the water’s edge in the New York City area and is a state of the art vertical production studio backed by Robert De Niro.  We also discuss sustainable and resilient design and differentiate between the two.   Dena has crafted a unique business and career based on her personal passions.  Born and raised in Anchorage, AK, Dena spent many months a year off the grid and in touch with nature while growing up.  It is evident that this connection with nature has carried through in her waterfront designs in New York City.

    027: Boulder Community Hospital Deconstruction Project with Alexis Feitel, PE

    Many businesses are finding a niche market for carbon reduction consulting.  At KL&A in Golden, CO they have specific department, comprised of structural engineers, to provide expertise in this area.  Alexis Feitel is a licensed professional engineer and the Team Carbon Unit Director at KL&A.  As a CO native with homestead roots in CO and an outdoor enthusiast, Alexis is passionate about engaging her engineering expertise to protect the natural environment around her. In this episode, we talk about the Boulder Community Hospital Deconstruction Project.  The City of Boulder has committed to major carbon reduction efforts and as a part of those efforts, wanted to save viable structural elements from one building demolition to be used in other projects.  By structural engineering involvement during deconstruction, Alexis and her team were able to devise a deconstruction and cataloging system that allowed these structural elements to be reused in a new construction fire station in the City of Boulder.  With the construction industry contributing to 40% of carbon emissions, reusing structural members makes a lot of sense and greatly influences construction impact to the environment.  Second hand shopping at its finest.
