Thank you Transmissiontowers,
I'm a bit older (not necessarily wiser) too. I'm with a larger engineering firm active in the T&D realm with the initials "HDR" ;) I agree with your assessment. I would like to join the 113 Committee if that is possible.
I understand that there is supposed to be a revision to ASCE 113 Substation Structural Design Guide to bring it in line with the latest ASCE 7 loading trends.
What is the status of that? Can we have a sneak peek at it? Or at least an idea of the direction it is heading?
