The COPRI Seattle Chapter invites you to an April 17th dinner presentation at Ivar’s Salmon House. We are pleased to welcome Alan Chun from WSP, who will provide insight into recent structural code revisions and how they impact the design of waterfront concrete structures.
Please register for this in-person dinner event using the instructions below! If you are interested in the topic, you do not need to be a member of ASCE or COPRI to attend. Everyone is welcome! Thanks in advance for your continued support and we look forward to seeing you there!
Topic:
When More Isn't More: Concrete Shear Capacity Code Revisions.
In this presentation, we will discuss the changes to the calculation of shear capacity, including the size factor, made in ACI 318-19 and compare the methodology used in other design codes. We will also discuss some of the outcomes of these changes in the application to the practical design of concrete structures.
Speaker:
Alan Chun, PE, is a structural engineer at WSP who focuses on port and marine structures. He obtained his Master's Degree in Structural Engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and has over 12 years of experience as a structural engineer. His experience includes the design of concrete, steel, and timber structures in a variety of settings, including dry docks, floating structures, bulkheads, bridges, mechanical systems, tunnels, and other miscellaneous site structures. Alan has developed extensive experience in structural analysis and modeling of soil-structure interaction. While the core of his design experience lies in structural design, critical to his success is the ability to communicate clearly, develop efficient solutions, and “ownership” of issues and projects to ensure success.
