Nothing beats educating the future leaders of our industry! Last week, Blaine Benson from Hohmann & Barnard had a blast at Masonry Field Day hosted by Creative Masonry. This amazing annual event brought together hundreds of high school students from the area, giving them a hands-on experience in the world of masonry. We loved seeing the enthusiasm and talent of these young builders! #masonrystrong #hohmannandbarnard #construction #buildingmaterials

How could they miss? The recent bridge failure underscores the need for proactive measures to protect against impact loads on bridge piers. While earlier designs may not have considered this specific risk, it's crucial that we prioritize safety by retrofitting existing structures with modern protective measures.

"Ah, the timeless challenge of the sloping block. In suburban areas grappling with land scarcity, plots with inclines, especially those situated away from the street, often present the only available options, bringing with them well-known hurdles for construction professionals. Thank you for sharing McCarthy Homes (QLD) Pty Ltd. It's truly encouraging to witness builders tackling these obstacles head-on and turning them into opportunities for innovation. Engineering projects on such terrain pose significant challenges, particularly in ensuring effective Stormwater and Roof water drainage management to align with today's stringent construction standards that prioritize environmental sustainability. At MAS Building Hydraulics, we specialize in providing expert engineering design solutions that not only meet regulations but also safeguard against harmful discharge into neighboring properties and prevent issues like ponding water and foundation damage caused by inadequate drainage solutions."

Did you know we build on sloping blocks? Most builders won't tackle a sloping block. It takes extra planning, engineering and workmanship. At McCarthy Homes, we see sloped blocks as an opportunity to create something truly special. If you've got you eye on a sloping block then start a conversation with our team. We can build the home you're dreaming of!

Husband & Father | Co-Founder of My Town Construction | Co-Founder of My Town Advisors | Entrepreneur | Real Estate Investor
True story…. About a month ago, I left a high paying job to take the plunge with my brother into entrepreneurship! Here is what I have learned so far: 1. I don’t like being called a boss. I would rather my team refer to me as their partner. To many leaders think of themselves above others, and that they must be served by their ‘underlings.’ The truth is: you serve your people! 2. Great teams are not just built by finding the most talented people, but rather investing in the RIGHT people. I choose to work with people who are teachable and that want to do great things. True talent is a focus on effort and consistency spread out over a long period of time. 3. I want to transform the construction industry. I have had the priveledge of speaking with so many homeowners and business owners recently. The primary issues I hear are - unreliable contractors, long wait times, and a lack of accountability. My Town Construction is NOT perfect, but we are invested in getting better everyday! Our team is committed to getting better everyday. I am committed to getting better everyday.

Devastating News: Collapse of Baltimore's Innovative #FrancisScottKey #Bridge I'm heartbroken by the news of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore. The Key Bridge was a true marvel of #engineering, boasting a unique #hybrid #design. 1. It wasn't just another bridge: The bridge employed a combination of #cantilever truss and steel arch elements, making it remarkably strong and efficient. Having cantilever segments, allowed for #construction without mid-span supports in the water, minimizing environmental impact and disruption to maritime traffic. 2. Second-longest of its kind: At its completion in 1977, the Key Bridge's main span of 1,200 feet was the second-longest continuous truss bridge in the world, a testament to American engineering ingenuity. 3. Built for a busy waterway: The bridge's 185-foot vertical clearance ensured safe passage for large ships beneath, highlighting the foresight of the designers in accommodating Baltimore's bustling harbor traffic. This innovative design made the Key Bridge a landmark and a testament to pushing the boundaries of bridge engineering. Understanding the cause of this collapse is not just about this specific bridge, but about ensuring the safety of countless similar structures across the world. My thoughts are with the first responders and everyone affected by this tragedy. #Baltimore #BridgeCollapse #StructuralEngineering
