I lead a big team of engineering, planning, construction and structural maintenance professionals who oversee the regular inspections of our infrastructure and the planning and execution of cutting-edge engineering work. I use my technical expertise, structural knowledge, and all of my in-the-field experience to guide our teams through these large-scale projects.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"iace\">Why I am a civil engineer?<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"theme_image alignright wp-image-56630 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/csce.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/201611-glen_carlin2-52-300x233.png\" alt=\"Glen Carlin\" width=\"300\" height=\"233\" \/>As a civil engineer, I get to actively participate in building and repairing major and crucial infrastructure that helps people get where they need to go. This work is incredibly stimulating! When you have the opportunity to get involved in projects with very complex technical challenges that required innovative solutions, you have to seize it without hesitating. It\u2019s important for engineers to find the best possible solutions to our challenges \u2014 and then dare to implement them.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"iace\">The project I worked on that I think best represents sustainable infrastructure?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2016, we are finishing the redecking of the Honor\u00e9 Mercier Bridge, which is a large-scale project with multiple challenges. Through the replacement of the original reinforced concrete deck, from 1959, with one made from high-performance precast concrete with galvanized reinforcement, this 8-year project will extend the bridge\u2019s service life by 75 years. This project, which is in collaboration with the Mohawk community of Kahnawake, is a great example of technical success, collaboration and sustainable development.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_btn title=&#8221;PDF version&#8221; i_icon_fontawesome=&#8221;fa fa-file-pdf-o&#8221; add_icon=&#8221;true&#8221; link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fcsce.ca%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2018%2F08%2F201611-CivilGlenCarlin-49.pdf|title:Glen%20Carlin|target:%20_blank|&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=&#8221;<i>more<\/i>&#8220;][vc_basic_grid post_type=&#8221;custom&#8221; element_width=&#8221;2&#8243; gap=&#8221;10&#8243; item=&#8221;56603&#8243; grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1533910681929-e87ced39-6a74-6&#8243; custom_query=&#8221;post_type=page&amp;posts_per_page=-1&amp;post_parent=141&amp;order=ASC&amp;orderby=menu_order&amp;exclude=149&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2929&#8243; img_size=&#8221;large&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;50px&#8221;][vc_column_text] GLEN CARLIN, CEO, The Jacques Cartier and Champlain Bridges Inc.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text] What is my job?
