Concrete Logic

Something different this week... In this episode, we did something a bit different. I was interviewed on the Engineer of Finance Podcast hosted by Ken Greene. I met Ken over a year ago after hearing him on another podcast. He was initially an engineer (that's probably why we get along) and then became a financial advisor. Anyhow, check out the short intro I gave about Ken, and then head over to his podcast to hear our conversation. To listen to Ken's podcast, here's the link: Engineer of Finance

In this episode of Concrete Logic Podcast, we welcome Jason Adams CEO of MEGASLAB. I found Jason and his company when researching jointless slab-on-grades for a project. If you Google "jointless concrete slabs," you'll find MEGASLAB on the first page of results so I figured this is what Jason and his company were all about. I was wrong. I would say Jason and his team take a "holistic" approach to concrete. Take a listen to this episode and see if you agree. I found our conversation interesting and

In today’s episode of the Concrete Logic podcast, we are lucky to have Jessica Wilson and Doug Clark of CarbonCure. CarbonCure is a technology that injects carbon dioxide into ready-concrete. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important heat-trapping (greenhouse) gas, which is released through human activities such as deforestation and burning fossil fuels and natural processes such as respiration and volcanic eruptions. It's also used to carbonate soft drinks and beer! The purpose of CarbonCure (injecting

On today’s episode of the Concrete Logic Podcast, our guest is Garrett Braun, a structural engineer. Garrett is the founder of Blue Nest Structural. We discussed what it’s like to open a new firm in the last year, how far the design of projects is by the time his engineering group gets involved, why do engineers not consider changing materials in concrete mix designs, and why buildings are not designed with more concrete.
