We will discuss the typical methods of specifying concrete and how to use the national standard to simplify the specifications for structural de sign. The presentation will provide an overview of some common challenges and potential solutions encountered in projects related to constructabilit y. The presentation will also address some trends in the industry and sugg est solutions that can be found through collaboration. Attendees should le ave this presentation with a better understanding of how the raw materials \, design specifications\, and construction practices are related and how all stakeholders must work together to achieve success.\nSpeaker Bio\nRobe rt C. Johnson MASc.\, P.Eng.\, is a Construction Materials Engineer with T hurber Engineering. He completed his Undergraduate and Masters degrees at Toronto Metropolitan University with specialization in concrete materials. \nMr. Johnson has a strong Concrete Materials skillset coming from nearly 15 years of specialized experience in the Ready-Mix Concrete and Consultin g Industries. He joined Thurber Engineering’s Calgary office in 2012 befor e joining Lafarge as Quality Manager for the Edmonton Ready-mix Operations in 2013. He rejoined Thurber in 2020 and continues his technical developm ent in the consulting industry.
