Lecture Abstract:
From the beginning of David’s college experience, he was interested in older buildings. When choosing a field to study, he focused on structures, and he has been fortunate to participate in the renovations and restoration of numerous historic buildings. Nearly one-half of his portfolio has consisted of the evaluation and renovations of existing buildings, including dozens of national historic landmarks. David will review the lessons he has learned about the unique challenges of structural engineering on historic buildings, discuss some case studies and include some stories of his own career path and some tips for a structural engineering student to follow leading to a successful career.
