Deep Foundations

In this episode of The Geotechnical Engineering Podcast, I talk to Michael Wysockey, Ph.D., P.E., who is the president of Thatcher Foundations, Inc. Michael dives into some very interesting items including deep foundations, earth retention, marine construction, and safety considerations from a geotechnical specialty contractor’s perspective.

Engineering Quotes:

Here Are Some of the Questions We Ask Michael in This Episode:

  • What do you do daily at Thatcher Foundations, Inc.?
  • How did receiving the Wilson and Peck Fellowships benefit your geotechnical engineering career?
  • You have many publications; can you tell us about your paper on the Accuracy of Methods Predicting Axial Capacity in Deep Foundations?
  • As a geotechnical professional, where do you learn about things like building codes and union agreements?
  • What kinds of techniques should young engineers be thinking about when they design something?
  • How much do you get into the codes and regulations in designs?
  • What have you learned from the marine projects that you have done?
  • What excites you about geotechnical engineering today, and in the future?

Here Are Some of the Key Points Discussed About Deep Foundations, Earth Retention, Marine Construction, and Safety Considerations:

Effective Delegation Techniques for Engineering Professionals

May 6, 2019 By EMI

Effective Delegation Techniques for Engineering Professionals is a guest blog by Mary Jane Riccardi

Effective DelegationIn my 10+ years working as a learning and development professional in an engineering consulting firm, there was one skill that I heard frequently was lacking for both project managers and organization managers. That skill was delegation. On the surface, effective delegation sounds pretty easy. However, in reality, it can be very difficult and uncomfortable. Delegation is the assignment of responsibility to another person to carry out a specific activity. [Read more…] about Effective Delegation Techniques for Engineering Professionals

BIM as an Effective Tool in Project Management

September 5, 2018 By EMI

BIM as an Effective Tool in Project Management is a guest post by Shakti Prasad

BIMBIM (Building Information Modeling) has been revolutionizing the AEC industry in terms of economic and technical viability, over the past few years. The advantages of the long-term application of BIM can be leveraged most efficiently in the field of project management. The need for management of an asset is a continuous process; from inception to demolition, a true cradle to grave cycle which involves handling large volumes of data, handling a lot of responsibilities, and so on for which BIM is the one-stop solution. Project managers need to embrace Building Information Modeling, interrogate the BIM information and reap the maximum benefits out of it for effective project management.

How Building Information Modeling (BIM) facilitates effective project management?

There are 2 broad aspects of Building Information Modeling which enables it in facilitating project management:
