On December 17 and 18, 2008, Jeff Kortan, P.E., FSI Director of Engineering, gave a presentation to employees of Terracon Consultants, Inc. (Terracon) during an on-line internet conference. Terracon has over 3,000 employees in 95 offices across the United States. They provide geotechnical, environmental, and facilities management services, as well as construction materials testing. Terracon is currently ranked 41 in Engineering News-Record’s 2008 listing of Top 500 Design Firms.
In the two days, Jeff presented “An Introduction to Helical Piers and Tiebacks” to 119 individuals in 62 different offices, all from the comfort of his office in Omaha, Nebraska. Talk about an efficient use of time and resources! FSI received a copy of the recorded presentation that will be posted in the “Dealer Login” section of the website so dealers can view the presentation.
This webinar was a successful marketing opportunity for Foundation Supportworks™ and our dealer network. This would be an ideal time for dealers to introduce or reintroduce themselves to the local Terracon office in their market area.
