Upcoming Events
OCTOBER MEETING - GERDAU STEEL MILL TOUR
Join us on Wednesday, October 21 from 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm to celebrate Steel Days at the Gerdau's Steel Mill in Cartersville, Georgia. Prior to the tour, Gerdau's mill team and metallurgist will provide a brief presentation about the steel production process, the science behind producing steel, and how it relates to the design characteristics we use as structural engineers. During the facility tour, participants will get an up-close look at the complete steel production process, from raw materials to the finished product. Click here to register, limited spots are left!
PPE is required.
To celebrate Steel Days, SEAOG will be raffling off 2 Steel Construction Manuals to attendees!

SE3
SE3’s (Structural Engineering Engagement and Equity) mission is to raise awareness and promote dialogue on professional practice issues in order to improve engagement and equity in the structural engineering profession. Our goals are wide-ranging and our work is broad in scope to provide opportunities for professional development on diversity & inclusion initiatives. Everyone is encouraged to join our mission!
Read.Watch.Listen
Check out NCSEA SE3’s September Issue of Read.Watch.Listen, a forum to share and promote conversations of DEI resources.
This month’s topic is The Value of Continuing Education.

Publicity Committee Update
RECAP
Porches and Pie Fest STEM Tent
On Saturday, October 3, SEAOG partnered with HYPE for the kids STEM tents at Porches and Pies Fest for the second year. We had over 100 kids help us make creepy critter catapults. Special thanks to the Young Members Group for helping out. HYPE is an organization that empowers girls of color with technology skills and prepares them to become future leader in tech careers, cultivating a pipeline of diverse talent for the tech industry.
ACEC STEM Day
On October 17, SEAOG will be partnering once again with ACEC for STEM Day, a half-day program designed to introduce kids to engineering. Along with almost 20 other engineering, architectural, and manufacturing companies, we expect hundreds of kids to come through. We’ll be having the kids build paper towers (with some spooky Halloween stickers for décor) to learn about structural engineering principles. This has been a fantastic event in years past, so it should be another fun day! If you’re interested in joining us or want more information, contact [email protected].
Stone Mountain Middle School STEM Night
On Tuesday, November 17, SEAOG will be participating in STEM Night at Stone Mountain Middle School from 4:30 to 6:00 pm. We’ll be speaking about structural engineering and the roadmap to becoming an engineer. We will also be leading the 6th to 8th graders in a hands-on STEM activity. If you’re interested in joining us or want more information, contact [email protected].
