    Aging Infrastructure Assesement

    I had started another thread about doing assessments on aging pavement but began to think a bit broader about infrastructure in general. As we all know a great deal of existing infrastructure such as roads, sewer, watermain, etc. will need replacing in the next few years. Does anyone have any...

    Pavement Assessment Consulting

    I'm a PE and LEED AP trying to think of business ideas. I don't really have much of an interest in having employees, but would like to do something that i can do solo. One idea i had was after doing some pavement condition assessments for commercial clients. I believe some large retailers or...

    Does anyone have any good advice or experience with the effect of frost depth on porous asphalt. I'm designing a porous asphalt parking lot and everything I read is conflicting. Some literature says freezing / heaving of soils is not really an issue, others say a certain percentage of the...

    Tracking Progress in Projects

    I'm a civil engineer getting into project management. One of the issues our department is having is how to effectively track the progress of our jobs. We want to keep an accurate up to date record of items which need to be completed within a given project. This would serve as a task list of...

    Pavement Replacement

    I'm working on a job where we are redeveloping an existing gas station. Part of the scope is to replace all the asphalt on the job. This was due partly to the asphalt's condition, but mainly because I had to regrade the pavement to accomodate changes. I would like to avoid replacing the...

    Career Choices as a Civil PE

    I recently obtained my PE and am trying to investigate what opportunities exist for me once I get licensed. I have been working as a civil engineering consultant for the last 5 years and frankly, I am getting bored. Sitting behind a desk is not what I intended by getting a civil degree...
