The American Society of Civil Engineers Membership Applications Review Committee (MARC) has reviewed and approved the election of Joshua B. Kardon to ASCE Fellow.
From the ASCE web site: “There is no direct admission to the grade of Fellow. Fellow status must be attained by professional accomplishments via application and election by the Membership Application Review Committee. It is a prestigious honor held by fewer than 5% of ASCE members. Fellows are practitioners, educators, mentors, and most of all leaders. They have distinguished careers that have contributed significantly to the Civil Engineering profession. The accomplishments of Fellows have left their marks on their communities, society, and future engineering professionals. Currently, active Fellows around the world number over 6,200.”

I have been practicing structural engineering for what seems like a long time (since 1973) and still enjoy the work. I see structural engineering as a combination of science, art and service, and I strive to excel in each of those facets of the profession. With this blog I hope to share ideas, trends, thoughts and musings of my own and of others I encounter in my practice with whomever may be interested. I welcome feedback and comments.
