ASCE Headquarters

Enjoyed catching up with familiar faces during the @ASCETweets "Infrastructure Gamechangers" Reception at the Hall of States Rooftop. When this particular lobbyist spends enough time with engineers he actually learns some things 🙂

“Staffing and funding for state dam safety offices have not kept pace with demand...many offices are overwhelmed and lack capacity to take enforcement actions on dams as needed.” -Brian Graber, American Rivers Read @ASCETweets article: asce.org/publications-a…

Great meeting with @ASCETweets today! Kansans deserve reliable infrastructure that lasts. We’re focused on fixing our roads and bridges to keep our supply chains moving and our economy strong. 🛣️💪

“That’s what I want to be, a leader and voice for my communities.” When it was time to launch his civil engineering career, there was no question where Braden Labenz wanted to start: in the community that raised him. Just 3 years later, he’s giving back to his hometown and building a legacy. Learn more about the 2026 New Face of Civil Engineering: go.asce.org/410NpBt.

We stand on the shoulders of those who came before us. This powerful leadership lineage spans past, present, and—hopefully—future (me! 😉) @ASCETweets Presidential Officers. If all goes well in May 2026, I’ll be honored to join this remarkable group and carry the legacy forward.

When it opened #OTD in 1932, the Sydney Harbour Bridge was the world’s widest long-span bridge and the second longest span of its kind. Seated at the mouth of one of the world’s most beautiful harbors, the steel through-arch, multi-modal structure is now an international symbol of Australia and its engineering achievements: go.asce.org/4cdEbX3. #VisitASCELandmarks

Thank you @RepWesterman for coming to speak to us at our #ASCE2DC Legislative Fly In! @ASCETweets @ASCEGovRel

ASCE welcomes its new CEO, Peter J. O’Neil, FASAE, CAE. An accomplished and growth-oriented association leader with deep global experience and a strong record of organizational transformation, O’Neil brings the member-focused, future-ready leadership needed to guide us successfully into the Society’s 175th year and beyond.

Digitizing bridge management can better assist engineers dealing with aging inventory, rising demand, and the effects of climate change. Read a primer on how to adopt them and why researchers urge incremental adoption: go.asce.org/4s9dpa0. @ASCEPublishing

Younger Members kicking off programming at the ASCE DC Legislative Fly In! @ASCETweets @ASCEGovRel #ASCE2DC

Great to see @ASCETweets Chief Resiliency Officer Jennifer Goupil sharing her expertise at @sxsw! BUilding for resilience is crucial for every community! kxan.com/video/sxsw-flo…

The world’s 1st working railway suspension bridge officially opened #OTD in 1855. John A. Roebling’s Niagara Falls Railway Suspension Bridge was considered an engineering marvel at the time & became a model for bridges of its kind: go.asce.org/4uoJnAs. #VisitASCELandmarks

UFI, @ReservoirCenter & @ASCETweets are marking #WorldWaterDay with a day of dynamic conversations about sustainable development of water resources, water conservation, and how to build a future where water challenges no longer constrain human health, prosperity, or environmental sustainability. Don't miss out! Register: reservoircenter.org/event/wwd2026/

Call for Content for the inaugural #ASCE2027: closes TOMORROW! Don’t miss your chance to be a part of history. Submit your ideas today: go.asce.org/3NR17nd.

Lucky you, lucky me. Lucky our infrastructure is reliable and safe, thanks to CEs. Happy #StPatricksDay from ASCE! 🍀

Anyone else wake up feeling ELITE today? Check out which 8 landmarks made it through round 1 of ASCE’s Civil Engineering Landmark Madness, then decide which landmarks will move into the semifinals—voting closes Sunday, March 22: go.asce.org/4sc03JP. #VisitASCELandmarks

The Army Corps of Engineers was established by Thomas Jefferson #OTD in 1802 and tasked with creating the nation’s 1st service academy. The United States Military Academy at West Point would become the oldest U.S. educational institution to offer formal academic instruction in civil engineering: go.asce.org/4sFBvZw. #VisitASCELandmarks

An AI-powered software tool allows @WYDOTNews engineers to collect and analyze road safety data faster, reducing roadway risk and possibly preventing traffic accidents. Find out how the system works on the #ASCESource: go.asce.org/3NCCefj.

While civil engineers from around the country are preparing to bring #ASCE2DC next week for @ASCEGovRel's 2026 Legislative Fly-In, others are taking a different approach to drive infrastructure policy progress. Five #ASCE members share their experiences running for public office and how civic engagement can fuel civil engineering: go.asce.org/4deCc7O.

“I hope that my lasting impact on the profession is that I've helped shape the industry to be more accessible, more inclusive, and a little bit more human.” Lauren Kilgore was an elementary school student when she first knew she wanted to be an engineer. She found a way to make that dream a reality, and now she’s working to make it possible for others who might not know exactly where they fit into the profession.
