Day in the life of a Structural Engineer!

“Working on this major structural and roadway project with the talented multi-discipline Shive-Hattery team, as well as the bridge consultants and Iowa and Illinois DOTs has been rewarding at many levels.  Seeing the bridge being built and then used by pedestrians and motorists has been an ongoing example of the impacts that our work can have for the public good and what the addition of aesthetics and landscaping can add to a functional design. In essence, we are linking communities with innovative designs!”  Joe Appel Structural Engineer SE, PE, LEED AP
