A huge thank you to Randy Simmons for inviting USF engineering students to the active construction site of a tilt-up building. The many details for this project were extremely interesting and the tilt-up construction process was jaw dropping, as over 100,000 pound concrete walls were set in place with a 300 ton crawler crane and expert crew. Other details of the construction site, such as the abnormal geotechnical properties of the site, drainage challenges, architectural touches, and foundation innovations to maximize uplift resistance and minimize construction cost, added to the experience, and we were all very thankful for the opportunity to learn from the R. R. Simmons group!
Thank you to all of you who attended the event! The success of this event would not have been possible with out our awesome members, hard working officers, and generous sponsors! We hope you had a wonderful time and look forward to sharing another fun evening with you all again! Our evening at AECOM was spectacular with three presentations (given by Bruno Fiori, Bob Anderson, and Mark Eicholtz), a great meal, and an office tour to top it all off. The presenters shared their involvement in astonishing projects and gave wonderful advice on a spectrum of topics, including education, character, and job choice. All of the FSEA student members were thoroughly impressed with the achievements, impact, and hospitality of the speakers and AECOM, as an whole. We are all extremely thankful for the experience and for AECOM's donation of time and effort to make it possible.
Thank you to those who attended and a big thank you to AECOM for your extreme generosity! The FSEA Student Chapter was proud to host David Fusco from TLC Engineering
