Would you like to tour New York City's newest supertall tower as it rises?

Join us for an in-person AISC Steel Day event to witness the construction of this 1,388-foot-tall skyscraper.  The site visit will be guided by the structural engineers who designed the tower, the contractors who are erecting the structure and a representative from the mill that supplied the steel.  After the tour, we will head to a nearby bar for a happy hour sponsored by Nucor's Construction Solutions team.  Please contact Steve Rys at steve.rys@nucor.com with any questions.

Note:  Please be aware that closed-toe footwear and long pants/sleeves are required.  PPE will be provided on site if you do not have your own.

Dear SEAoNY members and friends,

We would like to express our deepest sympathy and support for all the people affected by Hurricanes Ian and Fiona. Many people have been displaced, many lives affected and many homes and businesses damaged. 

We have been monitoring the post-storm property damage situation to see if there are any requests for support in regard to building evaluations. At least one NYC DOB team has been sent to Puerto Rico. A general call for help has not been received by SEAoNY, nor NCSEA as of yet. This may change at any time.

We advise our members of the following: If you are interested in participating in any voluntary assistance or technical support, please find information on the SEAoNY SEER Committee page. They are in touch with the branches of government and volunteer organizations that will put out the official request for help.

Having our members volunteer for one of these deployments is one of SEAoNY's core values. At the same time, we want to keep our members safe. Showing up as an engineering volunteer in one of these stricken towns can be a logistical challenge for our members as well as a distraction or worse to overtaxed local coordinators. We are monitoring calls for help closely and will keep anyone interested updated as the situation unfolds. Notifications will be provided to those who are registered with the SEER Committee.

Designers, fabricators, and researchers are all at the forefront of steel innovation.

And great things can happen if they work together to solve problems and confirm that creative design solutions actually work. Our free SteelDay webinar takes a look at several projects where design firms engaged with researchers to get confirmation that their innovative idea would be successful. As an added bonus, the design firms worked with students who became future employees!

AISC’s new vice president of engineering and research, Christopher Raebel, has been involved in several of these projects, and he’s thrilled to share his expertise with you during the 2022 free National SteelDay webinar on October 21.

Registration Deadline: 10/21/2022 12:15 p.m. Central

This October 21-23 marks the 20th anniversary of OHNY Weekend. More than 250 buildings, projects, and public spaces—from workspaces and cultural venues to private residences and infrastructure facilities— will open up for FREE tours, talks and other formats for both in-person and virtual explorations. Key locations and experiences to get excited about this year include the Sandy +10Living Breakwaters Boat Tour with SCAPE, a lighting tour of The New York Times Building with OVI Lighting for OHNY @ Night, a guided historical tour of the stunning Rapp & Rapp Kings Theatre in Flatbush, Brooklyn, inside look at the architectural highlights of The Eldridge Street Synagogue, and so much more. 

The full OHNY Weekend lineup will be released to the public on October 6 via ohny.org/weekend. A new lottery system will be introduced this year, with the goal of  leveling the playing field on our advance registration experiences. On October 13, the window for making advanced reservations will be open for 24 hours, from noon on October 13 to noon October 14, and then tickets will be distributed via a randomized lottery. Keep in mind: the majority of OHNY Weekend offerings are open access, meaning you can skip the lottery and enjoy public access to an array of exciting Weekend locations.
