Our project is a water distribution system for a village of about 120 homes and 600 people in the Dominican Republic and we are currently in need of a travel mentor for 1 to 3 weeks this August. I was curious whether you would be able to help us find a travel mentor for our August by forwarding the attached letter to your membership list which explains the project and our needs. This is rather time sensitive so we would greatly appreciated it if it could be forwarded to your membership list in the next few days. It would be a great help to our project. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to call me or send me an email. Thank You, Michal Usowicz Cell:415-503-8274 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This is a complimentary, non-commercial seminar designed for: civil, structural, and geotechnical engineers; consultants and contractors; port authorities; and academics. A certificate for 1.5 PDH credit* will be awarded to attendees, in addition to the latest technical manuals. This will be a great opportunity to network with other industry professionals, while obtaining professional development hours. Presentation 1: Changing the Economics of Below Grade Construction The program will cover an innovative way designers are currently using fire-rated steel sheet pile as the permanent foundation structure and earth retention system for below grade parking and basement facilities. The presentation will include a few examples of this design throughout the United States, and discuss some of the reasoning behind the design. It will also examine the various construction methods that are associated with this system and compare them to more traditional methods. Because the intended construction method and the design are so intertwined, this integrative approach allows for efficient utilization of both economy and schedule. Presentation 2: Accelerated Bridge Construction The Accelerated Bridge Construction presentation will focus on the use of driven piles to decrease bridge construction time. The manufacturing of high quality spiralweld pipe, the new H-pile range, and the use of steel sheet piles as permanent structural members will all be discussed.
