SUMMARY:An ESWP Program Committee Webinar - Steel Bridges
DESCRIPTION:Steel Bridges in the 21st Century\nSteel bridges have been designed\, fabricated\, and constructed for over 100 years\, with many centurion steel bridges still in-service today!  However\, the steel bridges we design and fabricate today are not your parents\, your grandparents\, or even your great-grandparents bridges.  This presentation will address both historic trends\, as well as recent innovations and developments in the steel bridge industry\, touching on available resources\, materials\, and design advancements that may be a benefit to you on your next steel bridge project. \n  \nPresented by: \nBrandon Chavel\, Ph.D.\, P.E.\, is the Director of Market Development for the National Steel Bridge Alliance\, a division of the American Institute of Steel Construction. He dedicates time to providing technical assistance\, tools\, and resources for steel bridges to bridge owners\, designers\, fabricators\, and technical committees. Prior to joining the NSBA\, Brandon spent 17 years in the bridge consulting profession with HDR\, Inc. as a senior bridge engineer and bridge section manager in Cleveland. Brandon earned his B.S.\, M.S.\, and Ph.D. in Civil Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:An ESWP Program Committee Webinar
DESCRIPTION:GEOTECHNICAL REPORTS: PROPER USE IN DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTING\nRecording: Facebook Live \n  \nPDH REQUEST FORM \n  \nPresented by Douglas M. Clark\, P.E.\, Civil & Environmental Consultants\, Inc.\, Pittsburgh\, PA \n  \nSubsurface conditions represent some of the largest uncertainties and risks in civil construction. Fortunately\, most owners recognize the need to perform a geotechnical investigation as part of the design development to obtain information pertinent to project design and construction. What is often less understood is how the geotechnical report and information should be used in design\, and how it applies to the construction contract. Many assume\, often incorrectly\, that the geotechnical report serves as a “baseline” for establishing the site conditions. While this may be true in some cases\, most standard contract general conditions (AIA\, EJCDC\, etc.) place the risks associated with subsurface conditions on the bidder\, and provide the geotechnical report only as information\, not as a contract document. This presentation discusses the issue of reliance on the geotechnical report by the parties involved\, presents case-studies\, and provides recommendations for owners and contractors to reduce risks. \n  \nFree to attend\, earn 1 PDH Credit\, from the comfort of your computer desk

SUMMARY:ESWP Webinar Training
DESCRIPTION:The Concrete Life Cycle: Maintain to Sustain\nEarn 1 PDH!\nConcrete is one of the most durable construction materials available\, but all too frequently we ignore its maintenance. Many of the techniques called “coating”\, “protection”\, and “corrosion mitigation” are in reality\, maintenance of concrete. The life span of concrete structures can be significantly extended by pro-actively addressing deterioration and durability issues through keeping water and other deleterious materials out of concrete after it has properly cured. \nPresented by Fred Goodwin\,\nFellow Scientist R&D/Technology BASF Construction Chemicals \nInstructions and link for webinar will be sent to your email address on September 22.
