Concrete Logic

Seth Tandett•www.concretelogicpodcast.com

What is the most used manmade material on Earth? You guessed it – concrete. In each episode of Concrete Logic, we will explore one concrete-related topic with the help of industry professionals that are shaping the future of the trade. We’ll talk with suppliers, contractors, architects, engineers, specialists, and even some proponents of competing materials about their views of concrete and their vision of its future.

EP #007 - Concrete Cylinders Are So Immature

In this episode of Concrete Logic, we welcome Mark Chase of RPX Technologies to the show. Mark is an expert on concrete sensors. These sensors are used to monitor the strength and temperature of in-place concrete. Traditionally during construction, the strength of concrete placed in a structure is determined by breaking a 6" x 12" (or 4" x 8") concrete cylinder sample taken during the placement. Mark and I discuss the downfalls of this archaic process and how monitoring the temperature of the co...

EP #006 - Brushing Your Teeth with Concrete

In this episode of the Concrete Logic podcast, our special guest is Grady Lonigan. Grady has an extensive background in concrete construction background and up until recently has been working with a well-known 3D printing company. I found his perspective on the potential of 3D printing in the concrete construction industry refreshing since he acknowledges the challenges that this technology has in becoming universally accepted by the industry. In other words, he has worked on both sides of the f...

EP #005 - Bankin' on Concrete

Something different this week... In this episode, we did something a bit different. I was interviewed on the Engineer of Finance Podcast hosted by Ken Greene. I met Ken over a year ago after hearing him on another podcast. He was initially an engineer (that's probably why we get along) and then became a financial advisor. Anyhow, check out the short intro I gave about Ken, and then head over to his podcast to hear our conversation. To listen to Ken's podcast, here's the link: Engineer of Finance...

EP #004 - Look Ma! Concrete with No Cracks!

In this episode of Concrete Logic Podcast, we welcome Jason Adams CEO of MEGASLAB. I found Jason and his company when researching jointless slab-on-grades for a project. If you Google "jointless concrete slabs," you'll find MEGASLAB on the first page of results so I figured this is what Jason and his company were all about. I was wrong. I would say Jason and his team take a "holistic" approach to concrete. Take a listen to this episode and see if you agree. I found our conversation interesting a...

EP #003 - Concrete with a Twist of Lime(stone)

On today's episode of Concrete Logic, we welcome Stephanie Hampton to the show. Stephanie is a Senior Technical Sales Engineer with Lehigh Hanson, one of the largest producers of cement in the world. Lehigh Hanson is pursuing carbon neutrality by 2050 and is a leading proponent of utilizing Portland Limestone Cement (PLC) to achieve this ambitious goal. If you don't know what Portland Limestone Cement (PLC) is, this is the episode for you! Stephanie shares what the difference is between PLC and ...

EP #002 - What Coke & Concrete Have in Common

In today’s episode of the Concrete Logic podcast, we are lucky to have Jessica Wilson and Doug Clark of CarbonCure. CarbonCure is a technology that injects carbon dioxide into ready-concrete. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important heat-trapping (greenhouse) gas, which is released through human activities such as deforestation and burning fossil fuels and natural processes such as respiration and volcanic eruptions. It's also used to carbonate soft drinks and beer! The purpose of CarbonCure (inject...

EP #001 - There's Not Enough Time for Concrete

On today’s episode of the Concrete Logic Podcast, our guest is Garrett Braun, a structural engineer. Garrett is the founder of Blue Nest Structural. We discussed what it’s like to open a new firm in the last year, how far the design of projects is by the time his engineering group gets involved, why do engineers not consider changing materials in concrete mix designs, and why buildings are not designed with more concrete. To reach out to Garrett, email him at gbraun@blueneststructural.com or cal...
