Guided by our recently completed One University Framework Plan (http://oneframework.osu.edu/), the soon to be completed North Residential District Transformation Master Plan, and our dynamic vision for Student Life, this new, densely developed North Campus Residential District must be carefully planned in a manner to reflect the best practices in both urban design, and campus-based student residential life. **** The District, bounded by Lane Avenue, High Street, Woodruff Avenue, and the College of Business, will be transformed with entirely new hardscape and infrastructure. The plan calls for 8 existing buildings to remain, 9 to be demolished, and 11 new buildings constructed on the 23-acre site. The presentation will review the goals of the project and some of the challenges involved in completing the project by Fall of 2016 while maintaining the student population within the district throughout construction.**** *Speakers: *Members of the project team from OSU, Korda and Messer will be presenting.**** *Time:* 11:30 AM ?

Robinson Engineering, 1801 Watermark Drive, Suite 310 Columbus, Ohio 43215 E.L. Robinson is presenting a three day seminar on Earth Retaining Structures in Columbus, Ohio, on December 3-5, 2013. The seminar will be presented by Mr. Jerry DiMaggio and Dr. Jamal Nusairat. The goal of this course is to provide agencies with state-of-the-practice design tools and construction techniques to expand implementation of safe and cost effective earth retention technologies. This course addresses the selection, design, construction, and performance of earth retaining structures used for support of fills and excavations or cut slopes. Instructors cover factors that affect wall selection, including contracting approaches with an emphasis on required bidding documents for each approach. Class discussions will include design procedures and case histories, demonstrating the selection, design, and performance of various earth retaining structures. Detailed information on subsurface investigation, soil and rock property design parameter selection, lateral earth pressures for wall system design, and load and resistance factor design (LRFD) for retaining walls are provided. *Outcomes:* Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to: - Describe potential applications for Earth Retaining Structures (ERS) - Select a technically appropriate and cost-effective ERS - Select appropriate material properties, soil design parameters, and earth pressure diagrams - Perform design analysis and prepare conceptual designs - Review contractor submitted documents - Discuss contracting methods - Describe construction and inspection activities for ERS This seminar provides 20 hours of professional development. *Registration:* Please go to the E.L.Robinson website for registation information. The deadline for registration is November 29, 2013, but there is an early registration discount before November 15. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Robinson Engineering, 1801 Watermark Drive, Suite 310, Columbus, OH 43215 *Open only to Central Ohio Section Members *Seating is limited to the first 25 people *Bring your own lunch Most structural engineers know that flexural members may need some lateral bracing to optimize their load-carrying capacities. But what kind of bracing? For which loads is the bracing designed? Which design details should be used? These questions are only the beginning. There are many more detailed questions that come up during real-life design projects. For instance: Can a structural steel girder be laterally braced by the corrugated metal deck with the flutes parallel to its span? Do joist hangers provide rotational support at the ends of wood rafters? How often should the antiroll braces be placed at the supports of Z purlins used in pre-engineered buildings? Should an isolated concrete beam be laterally braced? When is cross-bridging needed for wood floor joists? This webinar discusses these and many other practical issues involved in designing and specifying lateral bracing for flexural members of various materials. The presentation starts with the basics of bracing design applicable to all types of beams and joists. It then proceeds to an in-depth examination of the bracing practices for flexural members in wood, concrete, structural steel, and pre-engineered metal buildings. Borrowing from more than 30 years of engineering and forensic experience, the instructor explains which designs worked better than others and which common details could be improved. The design examples and sketches of various bracing systems illustrate the discussion. RSVP to newsletter at centralohioasce.com by Thursday, October 17, 2013. *Webinar Outline* - Introduction - The general types of bracing used in flexural members - Lateral bracing for wood beams and joists - Lateral bracing for concrete members - Lateral bracing for structural steel beams - Lateral bracing for metal building systems *Learning Outcomes / Benefits* - Learn about the general types of bracing used in flexural members - Become familiar with the practical methods of designing lateral and torsional bracing used in wood, concrete, structural steel, and pre-engineered building flexural members - Explore the various types of bracing used to provide stability against lateral displacement and rotation in flexural members - Discover the dangers of using some very common details for beam supports - Find out the specific design requirements for lateral and torsional bracing contained in the authoritative publications - Work through a number of design examples for strength and stiffness of lateral bracing See the ASCE website for more info. ------------------------------ The Central Ohio Section of ASCE sponsors free continuing education webinars as a service to our members.
