Leslie Nava, pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, has plans to pursue a master's degree in architecture soon after completing her undergrad. "I enjoy the grey area that there is in between architecture and civil engineering, and I think getting a master’s in architectural engineering can help me achieve the goals that I have set for myself," she said. Leslie is this week's UTRGV Profiles in Excellence student. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gUfhXPXH #utrgv #utrgvpie #utrgvprofilesinexcellence

By integrating landscape architecture into its suite of civil engineering design, stormwater management, and dry utility services, CDR streamlines collaboration resulting in more cohesive and innovative design solutions. #civilengineering #landdevelopment #landscapearchitecture https://buff.ly/3OV6GPd

Through her passion for sustainability and decarbonization in civil engineering, Sonja Hartmann, PE embarked on research years ago on “Quantifying Carbon in Stormwater Infrastructure.”   She has since advised on decarbonizing civil engineering specifications for multiple clients. Last year, she supported OLIN in developing the New York Botanical Gardens Comprehensive Master Plan (https://lnkd.in/gz49xXzu) where decarbonization was a key driver for their infrastructure solutions. This past August, she shared the outputs of her research at World Water Week in Stockholm.   And just last week, the Decarbonizing Specifications was released by the American Society of Landscape Architects (ASLA) in which Sonja provided her experience as a peer reviewer. This work from the ASLA is part of their Climate Action Plan which provides a new set of resources that offer actionable strategies to reduce carbon at sites for design and construction, and thus an excellent resource for landscape architects, civil engineers, sustainability professionals and contractors. Check it out in the link below. https://lnkd.in/g9EkrDx9   This expertise gained by Sonja is a result of investments we make within Arup to give our people, who have a passion for their work, the time and space to research innovative topics that are a priority for our clients and a way for us to continue pushing the boundaries of sustainable design. #water #stormwater #carbon #decarbonization #sustainabledevelopment #greeninfrastructure #Arup #DesignwithWater #ArupUniversity #GlobalSkillsNetwork #Research

Remember folks…. There’s no 2nd Layer if there’s no 1st Layer in place and barely stable. There’s no meaning to Audit what you are not managing. You define and plan your house from top-down… But you build it from down-up. And I’m not talking about civil architecture and engineering.

In front of the Mint Museum Uptown in Charlotte, NC where the #GeoCarolinas 2024 Conference organized by the Carolinas Chapter of the Geo-Institute of ASCE is taking place. #Geosynthetics are playing an increasingly important role in #Geotechnical Engineering to optimize the performance of Civil Engineering structures and to reduce the Environmental Footprint of construction work.

🌏 Bridge Engineers, Architects, and Governments 🌏 I am on a global mission to raise awareness among bridge engineers, architects, communities, regional governments, and national governments about the critical need to protect their valuable bridge structures. Sometimes, it feels like I’m a Don Quichot fighting windmills, but fortunately, I see that more and more parts of the world are waking up to the urgency of this issue. The implementation of effective drainage systems needs to accelerate. The bridges being rebuilt today must incorporate solutions like the Bridge Drainage KERB system to ensure these structures achieve a 100+ year lifespan. Looking at the current landscape, maintenance and renovation costs are skyrocketing—driven by inflation and other economic factors. Without proactive measures, the financial burden will become unsustainable. It is crucial that countries invest in building climate-proof bridges now. Failing to do so means future infrastructure costs could become unmanageable, putting both economies and community safety at risk. The stakes are high: if we do not act, the combination of rising costs, increased hazards, and structural failures could lead to economic collapse. It’s time for a global shift in how we approach bridge engineering. 🌉🔧 If you want to discuss this, please contact me via mark@bridge-drainage.com. https://lnkd.in/evPJ7RVq

Congratulations to Neethu Elizabeth John and Dr. Kiran Kamath from Civil Engineering and Architecture on the publication of the article "Analysis on the Behaviour of Hybrid Outrigger System in Relation to the Frequency Content of Earthquakes". Your research provides valuable insights into the seismic behavior of hybrid outrigger systems, contributing to the advancement of structural engineering. Well done.  #CivilEngineering #StructuralEngineering #SeismicAnalysis
