Openings in wood diaphragms are unavoidable but can cause significant changes to the shear distribution in the diaphragms. Openings complicate the design procedure, however, there
Engineers are not often exclusively responsible for locating wall openings on their masonry design projects. However, they are responsible for advising the owner on ways
Temporary structures can be an enigma for structural engineers. ASCE 7 does not directly address temporary structures, so engineers are left to their own judgment
In January 2025, SEU welcomed Thomas Heausler, PE, SE, from Heausler Structural Engineers, to present Seismic Design – Appropriate Implementation of the Overstrength (Omega o)
When the Geotechnical engineer is first engaged to provide a geotechnical report, they are often working off of limited project information and may not have
SE Solutions is pleased to announce the recipients of the SE Solutions + SE Impact structures scholarships at Purdue University as Kyra Fales and Hafdís
Structural systems using open-web steel joists are popular due to their cost effectiveness, flexibility, and ease of installation. Because these systems have high strength-to-weight ratios,
The cost of masonry construction can vary widely, in part due to inefficient designs which can drive up the labor costs on a structural project.
In December 2024, SEU welcomed Andrew Walters, PE, from American Engineering Testing, to present Guide to Understanding a Project Geotechnical Report. Andy designated Dr. Tom
Fire protection for mass timber structures has become less ambiguous for engineers since the 2021 publication of American Wood Council’s NDS Technical Report 10 Calculating
