Tipping

Last weekend, Tipping Applications hosted our first ever exhibitor booth at the annual Structural Engineers Association of California (SEAOC) Convention! This year’s conference was in Portland, Oregon, and was attended by structural engineers from California and the Northwest region. Our booth showcased our software Sketchulation, designed by Mike Korolyk to help structural engineers of all experience levels visualize the complex data inherent to our profession. Our booth was visited by hundreds of structural engineers of various experience ranges. Our curious and brave visitors spun the “wheel of challenges,” testing our team’s ability to demonstrate Sketchulation’s functionality on the spot. Gifts for our booth’s guests included free Sketchulation licenses, PDX local chocolates, and PDX gnomes. We also brought brochures for our professional practice software Cortex, and answered questions about how it integrates “people, practice, project, productivity.” Senior engineers / managers visiting the booth expressed interest in learning more about Cortex features and benefits, inquiring about how we’ve integrated the database into our daily routines and helped manage and grow Tipping.

Highlights from last week at the 2024 Structural Engineers Association of California (SEAOC) Convention, an annual event that brings together structural engineers, and other professionals from across the industry. Taking place in Portland, Oregon this year, Mike Korolyk, Natalie Tse, SE, Itria Licitra, and Jenna Williams, EIT attended the 4-day event on behalf of Tipping. During the convention, Mike gave a presentation about "An Improved Design Approach for Mass Timber Shear Walls Using CLT Panels and Shear Fuse Connections" and Jenna co-presented with Degenkolb Engineers' Hagen Tam, PE on "The Grind: Overcoming Challenges + Strategies to Succeed" to the SE Pathways Cohort. Natalie Tse, SE, also received the inaugural 2024 SEAOC Service Award for her contributions, service, and leadership to the structural engineering profession, recognizing the impact that SEAOC’s SE Pathways has on the professional community at large. Established in 2022, Tipping is one of many sponsors of this initiative addressing the disparity of engagement and lack of diversity within the California structural engineering profession. For the first time, Tipping Applications also hosted an exhibitor booth to showcase the firm's structural engineering software Sketchulation as well as the professional practice software (people, practice, project, productivity) Cortex. Visited by hundreds of structural engineers with a range of experience levels, free licenses and various PDX prizes (local chocolates and handmade gnomes) were given out – thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth!

Featured by Building Design+Construction Media is the new #designbuild Contra Costa County Administrative Building in the article "World’s first TRUE Zero Waste for Construction-certified public project delivered in California." https://lnkd.in/gTWCG5MW "More than 95% of construction waste from the project was diverted from landfills and waste-to-energy facilities. That amounted to over 15,000 tons of waste reduced, reused, recycled, composted, and/or recovered for productive use. The project included the demolishing of a 12-story building and a historic jail. Marble from the building lobby was salvaged, cut, and reused in the new building lobby, alongside a history of the site mural," writes Peter Fabris.
