Structural engineers are involved in the design and construction of buildings, bridges, tunnels, dams, and other infrastructure that we find throughout the world. People often do not think about whether a building or bridge is safe when we use it, but structural engineers have worked hard to design and build safe projects that get used on a daily basis by the general public.
In this episode we sit down with Mohsen Rassem to learn about structural engineering. Mohsen is the senior structural engineer and Department Manager at KGS Group. His career spans over forty years, and he specializes in the structural engineering of buildings. In this conversation we hear about how he got into engineering and we learn about some of the large projects he has worked on. In addition to talking about his career, Mohsen also shares some advice for young people that might be interested in a career in engineering.
