The purpose of this section is to shine a "Spotlight" on volunteer members, within ECB, that are known to go out of their way, above and beyond expectations. This month's Spotlight is shining on Mr. Bill Huffman, P.E. Read below on how his involvement with ECB is making a difference.
 |
|
|
Bill Huffman, P.E. |
Mr. Bill Huffman works for Patrick Engineering of Lisle, IL as their Florida Senior Engineer for the Utilities and Renewables Team. His major focus is natural gas transmission and distribution but also assists with the industrial and intermodal transportation (ports and rail) sectors.
For the past several years, Bill has been the Co-Chair of Special Projects for the ECB Utility Engineering & Survey Institute, arranging the UESI professional luncheons and assisting with scholarship planning. It has been a challenge for the committee members to find speakers for the broad array of topics the UESI covers, but they have facilitated meaningful presentations on state-of-the-art drone surveying, innovative underground utility accommodations, pending upgrades to ASCE's Subsurface Utility Data Standards, and trenchless pipe replacement technologies.
Bill has been associated with ASCE since his student membership while earning a BSCE at Drexel University (1976). Subsequently, he spent 40 years in civil engineering and infrastructure construction including two tours as a Peace Corps engineering volunteer in Africa (Kenya 1976-78, Mali/Cameroon 2010-2012). He holds Florida PE and CGC licenses and a Masters of Engineering degree from University of Florida (2012).
Bill lives with his wife Ruth in Lake Mary and enjoys visiting often with his daughter, son-in-law and two grandkids in south Florida.
Next time you see Bill, please help us thank him for his outstanding service. Also, if you are aware of an ECB member deserving to be in the Spotlight, please let a branch officer know so they can be properly recognized in a future Spotlight.

History & Heritage Committee Chair
The Beacham Theater was built in
1921 by
Braxon Beacham
(Figure 1) with a simple 20th century commercial style. The lack of beautiful architecture from its time, is offset by its significant cultural history, though.
The property where the building is now located had previously been a jail building for Orange County. The theater is thought to be haunted because it was precisely in that lot where condemned prisoners were executed.
On the inside of the building, the auditorium has "square columns adorned with feathered capitals that climb gracefully to a high ceiling decorated with rectangles of intricate plasterwork".
The building also has tunnels from the "stage trap" that run into the basements of 2 nearby hotels, with the purpose of probably protecting the performers from being mobbed by the crowds or storing and hiding alcoholic beverages during prohibition. The tunnels were later sealed during a renovation early in the 1980's.
This theater has been used as a series of concert venues and night clubs, saving it from demolition. The building has also undergone a lot of modifications during its lifetime. Here are a few of them:
- Parapets, cornices and windows were removed (1954).
- The proscenium was modified to install a cinema widescreen (1964)
- The theater's interior and stage were remodeled, balcony seating was added, and the proscenium was rebuilt (1975 )
- The balcony was extended (1981)
- The theater cinema's 765 seats were removed, and the sloped auditorium floor was terraced. Back stage area was remodeled (1984)
The building was considered a landmark in 1987.

The Geo-Institute Chapter of the ASCE East Central Florida Branch has been planning several technical presentations.
G-I May Technical Luncheon - Geotechnical Applications for Manufactured Lightweight Aggregates
Please join us on
May 28th for our next technical luncheon by
Jack Moore, Marketing and Technical Manager - South Region for Arcosa Lightweight (
https://arcosalightweight.com). Jack's presentation will be on
Geotechnical Applications for Manufactured Lightweight Aggregates. Frequently challenging site conditions arise during geotechnical investigations for mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) structures. The concerns are typically related to settlement, stability, and bearing capacity. This presentation will explore the use of expanded shale and clay lightweight aggregates as a cost effective solution when unsuitable soil conditions are present. The content of the presentation will include a general overview of common ground improvement methods and where lightweight fill options fit. Specific applications will be reviewed along with select project case histories.

G-I June Technical Luncheon - How Geogrids can Supplement Asphalt and Aggregates to Extend Pavement Life.
Please join us on June 25th for our next technical luncheon by Rob Adamson, P.E., South Area Engineer for Tensar International Corporation (www.tensarcorp.com). Rob's presentation will be on How Geogrids can Supplement Asphalt and Aggregates to Extend Pavement Life. The presentation will introduce the unique function of geogrids in pavements and will then focus on how to implement geogrids into a paved roadway design, or into an unpaved access road or haul road design. We will first discuss how to economically establish an effective subgrade to build on, then go into how geogrids work in conjunction with various aggregate and asphalt materials and thicknesses to provide a longer lasting and more reliable pavement section (based on AASHTO 93 Design Methodology). We will discuss the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers laboratory testing at Vicksburg and the general importance of lab testing, and then transition into the importance of field verifying the lab data through APLT (Accelerated Plate Load Testing) to validate that actual pavement performance is as good as or better than designed, and to build confidence when designing with geogrids in pavements.
Be on the lookout for more information about future luncheons and seminars presented by the ASCE ECB Geo-Institute.

Team 7477 Super 7 2018-19 Season Summary
Team Super 7 is one of the three FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) Teams th
at have been supported by ASCE for over 9 years. FTC is one of the programs within the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) organization that was founded in 1989 to inspire young people's interest and participation in science and technology. Based in Manchester, NH, the 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity designs accessible, innovative programs that motivate young people to pursue education and career opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and math, while building self-confidence, knowledge, and life skills.
FIRST Tech Challenge teams (up to 15 team members, grades 7-12) are challenged to design, build, program, and operate robots to compete in a head-to-head challenge in an alliance format. However, FIRST is way more than just building robots. Guided by adult coaches and mentors, students develop STEM skills and practice engineering principles, while realizing the value of hard work, innovation, and working as a team.
This is the 6th year for Team Super 7 in the FTC. The team has become an extended family to all these kids and mentors. The team is coached by Prasad Chittaluru (ASCE ECB Past President) and his wife Shri Varadarajulu, a Senior Design Engineer with AMD. For the 2018-19 season, Team Super 7 included students from the following seven schools in Central Florida:
- Seminole High School
- Winter Springs High School
- Lawton Chiles Middle School
- Jackson Heights Middle School
- Crooms Academy
- Winter Park High School
- Bishop Moore Catholic High School
The team worked hard throughout the season. They qualified for the State of Florida Championship after progressing from the Space Coast league. At the Florida State Championship, the team won the 3rd place Inspire Award and the Think Award for the best Engineering Notebook and was one of the 7 teams that advanced from Florida to the World Championship in Houston. At the World Championship, the team finished 14th in their division of 80 team, and finished with a 6-1-2 (win-loss-tie) record. The team's robot performed fairly reliably and the 1st-year drive team performed admirably. Barring a couple of errors, the team could have finished in the top 6 or 7 teams in their division. This was a great learning experience for the team and they are excited to work hard next year to improve their performance.
The team is grateful for the support of ASCE through the years. The team will demonstrate their robot at the ASCE Florida Annual Conference in Orlando in July 2019. Some pictures and links from the season are included below.
