Urban Engineers’ Post

Such an amazing and insightful post. She brings up an extremely interesting and significant point. Unclear, misguided, or poorly managed initiatives and projects can be afflicted by severe delays (for a variety of factors). These effects can be astronomical and cause an exponential rise in costs. However, those costs are nothing compared to the repercussions of losing a vital or critical asset that we end up taking for granted. In So Cal, people regularly joke about if Interstate 10 will ever be fixed. I was there last December, 4 years after relocating, and I'm sad to report that it is still under construction. This of course, doesn't include the 35 years I lived there, or whenever the construction was started. I'm in TN now and often amazed or in shock & awe to see projects started and finished, especially when it's only been a few or couple weeks since I've been through a certain area and you can tell a project was freshly completed. We need to do better. I'm hopeful the infrastructure bill will do some good and it wasn't for naught. #AEC #ACEC #infrastructure #ironorbit #INFINITYworkspaces

As a Senior Materials Engineer on the California High-Speed Rail project, Meysam Najimi, P.E., looks for creative ways to incorporate more sustainable practices. “In researching alternative replacement options for Portland cement—a product whose production significantly contributes to our carbon footprint—I’ve learned small steps, like focusing on performance-based design, can be more conducive,” he said. For aspiring civil engineers, Meysam recommends gaining exposure to both design and construction. “A strong designer understands the limitations of construction. A seasoned engineer knows where design has flexibility for modification. So it’s a good idea to get sense of design and construction, early.” #EWeek2024 #EngineersWeek #WelcomeToTheFuture #Engineering #Design #MaterialsEngineering #Sustainability
