For the last twenty-five years, Pankaj Saharia from Shrewsbury,
Massachusetts has been an active member of the American Society of Civil
Engineers (ASCE). This tax-exempt professional body was established in
1852 with the goal of representing civil engineers around the world. The
ASCE is headquartered in Virginia. The constitution that governs the
inner-workings of the group is based off of the tenets set forth by the
Boston Society of Civil Engineers which was founded in 1848. The ASC was
the first and only civil engineering society in the United States.
The
mission of the ASCE and its many members covers a broad spectrum.
Passing knowledge and innovation through support and outreach programs
is one of the keys to the ASCE's continued success. Each of the groups
endeavors are based on a desire to help the world through the building
of important structures that are needed in many countries. To be a
member of the ASCE, a structural engineer must demonstrate the highest
level of professionalism and ethical behavior. They also should show
their willingness to support sustainable infrastructure, above average
knowledge of engineering, and a commitment to a better global community.
The ASCE earns most of its profits, which are funneled directly back into the group, through the creation of publications that are distributed world-wide. More than thirty peer-reviewed journals are published each year, covering topics from Geomechanics to Computing in Civil Engineering and Urban Planning and Development. Pankaj Saharia Shrewsbury, Massachusetts has found his affiliation with the ASCE to be a great benefit.
