Construction management and paper dolls

In the tough and gritty world of construction, paper dolls would seem to be as out of place as steel-toed boots at a ballet performance. However, when four construction management students attended a recent skills competition, paper doll construction was among the activities. Of course, the South à£à£Ö±²¥Ðã State University students weren’t putting dresses or bonnets on their dolls. In fact, their dolls weren’t even what Pinterest would call paper dolls. Their paper dolls were cut-out, scaled pieces of paper that represented tilt-up concrete panels on cast-on-site projects. The students and 16 others from other Midwest universities were taking part in the Region 4 Skills Summit sponsored by the Associated Schools of Construction.

The concrete problem

Mohammed Teymouri, assistant professor of construction management in South à£à£Ö±²¥Ðã State University's Jerome J. Lohr College of Engineering, is working to solve one of the most pressing issues in the construction industry: how to lower carbon emissions of concrete.

Jackrabbit in the spotlight / Roth’s future may include return to alma mater

Emma Roth never knew a degree in concrete industry management existed when she enrolled at South à£à£Ö±²¥Ðã State University in fall 2021. Now she is only a semester away from graduating and has made quite an impact on the 3-year-old program. She would like to make an even bigger impact in the future — as program director.
