City Engineer Office Overview/Roles
March 18, 2021: "We often times are so busy that we don't feel able to get away and see things from a different perspective. To be able to see and understand what goes into the developing and testing of concrete mix designs, the blending of mix at the batch plant and how it gets transported to the jobsite and all the QA that occurs in between was pretty eye-opening, even for someone like me who thought he knew a lot about concrete. I would encourage anyone in this industry to take the time at the next field trip opportunity to broaden your understanding (and appreciation) of the people and processes that make our work possible."

Latest Industry Trends in Concrete presented by Lisa Barnard
Concrete is the material of choice for the tallest buildings in the world and infrastructure designed to last centuries. To meet demands for these cutting-edge projects, concrete must be stronger, more durable and more workable than ever before. During our meeting we explored how new products, manufacturing methods and research are developing innovative concretes to meet these new challenges. Bendable concrete, smog eating concrete and carbon capture are just a few examples of new technologies enhancing a product that is nearly 5,000 years in development.

Extreme weather events around the world are spurring more communities to become concerned about the growing consequences of climate change. This is driving an increased focus on reducing embodied carbon, which represents a large part of the emissions produced in the building industry. The carbon footprint of a building consists of the embodied carbon from construction and the energy the structure consumes once it's completed. In the case of concrete, the embodied carbon is what is emitted by taking the raw materials out of the ground, processing them, and delivering them.
