Creating Structure Podcast #34: The Specialty Facade Engineering Session-Diarmuid Kelleher, PE, Dave Dunham, PE, Sentech Architectural Systems

Creating Structure

Welcome to the "geek out" episode, where three normal, balanced humans, who happen to be engineers, and who happen to have glass and aluminum in their DNA profiles, discuss engineering of glazed facades, specialty glass, technical applications, value propositions, and more. We talk about the role of engineering, Sentech's specialty work, thermal performance, structural engineering, wall movements, building codes, material optimization, and much more. Also, how about ordering and handling a 75' x 12' piece of glass? That's some big stuff.
Diarmuid Kelleher, PE, is Director of Engineering for Sentech. He grew up in Ireland on a 60 acre dairy farm. He came to the USA in 2008. He's worked for such notable's as Larson Engineering, Permasteelisa North America Corp, Thorton Tomasetti, and Inhabit, on his progression to Sentech. He leads all engineering production work from time of sale to point of fab and construction. I think you'll enjoy his insights.
Dave Dunham, PE, is the Director Of Business Development at Sentech. Dave has worked there as engineering manager, and pre-sales engineer manager on his path to the current position in business development, sales, proposal work. He he leads the sales team, does a significant amount of Design-Assist work and consultation (DA) and facilitates a high level of collaboration between business development and engineering.
Have fun, and enjoy this episode.
