The 2024 AASHTO (American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials) Committee on Bridges and Structures (COBS) annual meeting in Indianapolis was a success! Our National Practice Team Manager of Structural Engineering, Bill DuVall, and Senior Bridge Engineer, Randall B. Mullins PE, had the opportunity to engage with industry leaders about the latest advancements in bridge design and construction. COBS plays a pivotal role in advancing bridge and structural engineering by establishing guidelines, standards, and best practices for the design, construction, and maintenance of various transportation-related structures. Responsible for the development and maintenance of the AASHTO Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) Bridge Design Specifications, COBS ensures that these critical documents set the basis of design using state-of-the-art practices. COBS also champions research and the integration of new technologies and materials, promoting innovation that enhances the safety, reliability, and longevity of our infrastructure. Their standards often serve as the foundation for state and federal regulations, ensuring widespread adoption and impact. Through the promotion of cutting-edge materials, technologies, and methods, COBS continues to drive progress in the field of bridge engineering, setting the stage for a safer, more resilient future. #Engineering #BridgeDesign #StructuralEngineering #AASHTO #Innovation #Safety
