Structural Engineer Interview

[@Rayquesto]

0:47 To be clear, it's usually a top down process for designing, but I could see the foundation being designed first independently. Construction is usually the opposite.

[@Rayquesto]

Exactly!

[@calvoh9715]

analysis is from top down,once the member forces are obtained,sizes determined the design is from bottom up,starting with foundations.

[@meetpatel-lf8dh]

You're right

[@BruceWayne-dr9zh]

I am watching this while pursuing my first year in masters in structural engineering... Hello rest of the structural engineers in the comments section... Lets analyze the world as a structural engineer together..

[@kelelloramokotjo3534]

I’m enrolling in September!! I cannot wait. Wish you all the best and I hope we ace the field!

[@alexanderrandolph483]

Wish the interview was longer. Good vid.

[@segunadeniji5695]

I wanted to do chemical engineering as well. My Nigerian dad said exactly the same thing. Thanks for this video, it is insightful.

[@anikm111]

And I myself too regretting picking up civil engineering over chemical!!!

[@thecat4272]

Really interesting guy and video.

[@mohammedajazahmed3997]

Nice explanation about structural engineering

[@diegorodich6313]

-Que agradable sujeto! -What a nice guy!

[@toothpickstudio5402]

Design process is from top to bottom, not the opposite.. it means Superstructure then Substructure.. if u design from bottom, how do u estimate the loadings?

[@anthonybutto1925]

This is why there's not many of them out there for the stress levels go up in the end of each job for too much stress can be bad for you. I think that, for me to give a good example is to say that if you''re an athlete then you have to be built for resisting and handling stress for your body's designed that way. Or it could be a job where there's not a lot of physical work but a lot more mental work than physical work but he's very physically fit and perfectly healthy to handle the work even though there's a lot of mental work and very little physical work involved for a career in structural engineering to resist stress and handle stress. It's a bit like running for hours up hill and down and maybe probably the age that counts and so he can handle it. He may be over his 70's but at that age, a bit slow compared to a youngster in his late 20's or mid 30's for he's perfectly fit and healthy to handle jobs to, a lot of the times, and mentally focused for a career in some suitable office jobs to be able to resist stress and handle the job. This is why some people leave the industry after that many years of hard training and experience and it takes a toll on people for if people can't resist stress, people cant handle stress for there's a place for everyone in this world. It's a bit like saying, it's a designed car to travel on the road to carry small things, not furniture or cars, but it has an engine built for that vehicle but not car designed to travel on the road to carry family cars. I watched a lot of film clips on police recruiting and there was a woman candidate in her 60's who failed the physical fitness test, it was too much for her, and could not handle and resist stress to continue on but regardless, be it a male or female candidate, it is what it is. It was upsetting and sad to fail and leave but for anyone to say I never went through sadness and to be upset, people will be sooner or later. I know my father in his late 80's never had any life threatening issues. He was a bricklayer but can't work as a bricklayer now, knowing he wants to, for he's too old for that kind of career. But we so much need structural engineers, for they play an important part. I'm not comparing what career people have and do for every career's just as different and so equally important. Be it cleaning a bathroom or to play in a musical wedding band, working as a motor mechanic or working as president of the United Sates of America. There's no career that's more important than the other. Everyone's equally important in this world in whatever profession regardless what it is and this is what makes the world a strange and believe you me a strange, interesting and fun world to live in for everyone. This is why people say that I've got so much work to do I'd rather listen to music or watch basket ball for the world's an interesting place to live in for everyone. If you're feeling sad and upset, I hope this helps- be blessed!

[@mehranahmadyousafzai]

Isn't sizing the foundation at the last stages of design process?

[@omarshaikhaljabal1106]

Nope, structural eng start's from buttom of the building to the roof of it in design

[@jahidulmasum233]

@@omarshaikhaljabal1106 so how to calculate the load coming to the foundation from upper part of the building?

[@thegreatest1176]

Thanks for the video, i am contemplating with choosing either computer science or structural engineering as a career.

[@ekxoskletr]

Which did you choose

[@777_maffia]

As a Civil engineer id suggest Structural Engineering, but the choice is yours! Good Luck

[@matthew47ak]

As a structural engineer Id recommend computer science lol

I am final year civil engineering @t student from India.i have already done one structural designing internship(designing of RC structures) for 6 weeks and I am really interested in structures. I want to do my masters abroad with a full scholarship so given choice what would be more beneficial for me. 1)doing 6 months structural \ civil engineering internship. 2)doing research and writing a research paper if so then please suggest some good areas of research. and please also mention some good colleges for M.s in structural engineering.waiting for your answer.........

thks sir. Do you think it might be too much to be Civil engineer and electrical engineer too?

So do they just sit on their asses all day

[@balaportejean7015]

no maths?that's what i was looking for. Well, tell me if i can't combine electrical with it? is civil engineering a full time job? I love drawing but i enjoy calculating and solving problems more. I wanted to take electrical engineering too because i want to bring new energy(solar,windy...) in my country. Can i learn both? please can you answer quickly because i'm about to go to college and i want to know by know. Jesus loves you and he's real. Repent and believe the Gospel.That's an advice i can give you.

[@aleksandarmrkajic7190]

I think you will waste your time to do both. In the end, you will have to either chose a job or start a business in one field. To become a master in any field will require lifelong learning and commitment. If your passion is new energy than you should choose electrical.

[@alhammadi7417]
