In the photo on this page, Jenn is teaching a problem in the use of rebar in concrete.
She is assistant teaching at U.C. Berkeley at the time.
Jennifer Masich Lynn specializes in structural engineering and teaches at Cal Poly.
Marco brought his structural plan for Bliss Dance to her and asked her to criticize it.
She hasn't done the calculations yet but she told me that the configuration looks encouraging.
Most of the steel in the piece is quarter inch, but it gets thicker and thicker as it goes down to the supporting leg.
At the bottom, it is very heavy…

Marco will end up with three sizes for the piece:
- the original, which is life-size or three-quarter size in bronze.
- an intermediate size- 13 feet- in clay to add detail.
- the finished, 40 foot piece.

In the photo, above, Jenn is a T.A. at U.C. Berkeley in 1999. She is teaching a course called Mechanics of Materials. This class is on the behavior of concrete under stress.

The steel roof of OCP was developed rapidly at the end of the project after a change in brief removed the need for a solid concrete roof. I was very pleased with the result which I hope will be simple an elegant.
The primary structural element is the central concrete column. The steel connects at the head with a moment connection, stiffening the column into double curvature during typhoons. As a result the perimeter steelwork is lightweight, allowing better views out to the Ocean Park.

Booth-Kelly Railroad Bridge (1882), now called Hayden Bridge, is a single span Whipple through truss spanning the McKenzie River in Springfield. A Whipple truss is a (stronger) variation of the Pratt truss, also called a “Double Intersection Pratt”, characterized by diagonal tension members crossing adjacent verticals, thereby spanning two panels instead of just one for the Pratt truss. It is considered the oldest surviving bridge in Oregon, while rare and significant for its wrought iron Phoenix columns. This bridge has been moved once. Originally built in 1882 by Phoenixville Bridge Works at Corrine, Utah, it was dismantled and relocated in 1901 to its current location to serve the since abandoned Weyerhaeuser Logging Railway. The bridge was abandoned in 1987, then decked for pedestrian use and reopened in 2019. Notable also is the use of longitudinal bracing rods beneath the bottom chord bracing the deck beams.

(A) Finite element mesh 4 (approximately 41,000 nodes, 230,000 elements). The periotic bone is trimmed off, and the red markers at the top-right of the mesh indicate nodes with prescribed displacements (as dictated by the motion or the lack of the motion of the squamosal bone of the skull). (B) Close-up of the ossicular chain and the sigmoidal process in the foreground. The joints between the ossicles are shown in color: the annular ligament between the stapes and the oval window is yellow; the incudostapedial ligament is green, and a small portion of the malleoincudal ligament is blue (most of this ligament and the malleus are obscured by the sigmoidal process).

Our multi-award winning design for Cowley Timberwork. The first time that I have seen the finished building from the inside.
This is the place where three separate structures meet but have to work together. On the left is a long span section of viaduct coming from Ocean Park. In the centre is the corner of the depot. On the right is Wong Chuk Hang Station.
The complexity of getting this all to work together required many meetings of the three teams and much scratching of heads! Hopefully all the users of the Transport Interchange will never notice!
