Cliff Schwinger May 6, 2008 – Quality Assurance for Structural Engineering Firms

With fast-track construction, computerized design, complex building codes and younger engineers taking on more responsibility earlier in their careers, the need for structural engineering firms to have a comprehensive in-house Quality Assurance program has never been greater. Adoption of comprehensive Quality Assurance program will result in better design, better contract documents, fewer RFI’s and change orders during construction, a better product for clients and increased profitability for structural engineering firms.

This seminar is Part 1 in a series of two seminars and reviews the components of a model Quality Assurance program. Engineers seeking to improve the efficiency of the design process in their office and seeking to improve the quality of the work produced by their firm will benefit from this presentation.

This course will award 1.5 hours of continuing education.

The times will be 10:00 Pacific, 11:00 Mountain, 12:00 Central, and 1:00 Eastern
