\n\n Speaker: Dr. Tona Rodriguez-Nikl\, OSU School of Civil an d Construction Engineering\n
\n\n In the civil engineering pro fession there is a well-deserved and growing interest in sustainability. Ho wever\, there are varying ideas about what “sustainability” means and t here are an\n overwhelming number of products\, services\, and research results claiming to be “green” or “sustainable”. How do engineers\, experts in their area of practice\, but certainly not experts in\n sust ainability\, choose among alternatives or know they are doing something use ful? The main aim of this talk is to sort through current trends to bring t ogether a coherent and useful picture of\n sustainability and to suggest some simple questions any engineer can ask to determine whether the option he or she is pursuing is indeed sustainable. Examples from many areas of c ivil engineering\n will be used to illustrate various aspects of sustain ability. \;\n
\n\n Tona Rodriguez-Nikl is an Instructor in the School of Civil &\; Construction Engineering at Oregon State Univer sity. Dr. Rodriguez-Nikl’s educational background includes Bachelor and M aster of\n Science degrees in Civil Engineering from the University of C alifornia at Berkeley\, and a Ph.D. in Structural Engineering from the Univ ersity of California\, San Diego\, where he developed and\n tested carbo n fiber retrofits to protect reinforced concrete buildings against bombblas ts. Dr. Rodriguez-Nikl has worked in industry for WJE in the San Francisco area performingstructural\n evaluations\, forensic investigations\, and structural analyses. He teaches statics\,structural dynamics\, and a freshm an computation course. Dr. Rodriguez-Nikl is a member of ASCE and the Ameri can\n Concrete Institute where he serves on committees in Sustainability of Concrete\, Fiber Reinforced Polymer Reinforcement\, and Concrete with R ecycled Materials as well as the Structural Engineering\n Institute’s Engineering Philosophy committee. He is also a corresponding member of SEI s Sustainability Committee and works locally with the Corvallis Sustainab ility Coalition.
