Exciting New Magazine Columns
It's always exciting to introduce our members to new DFI offerings. In this issue, it's
doubly satisfying to announce two new columns, which we expect to be regular
features in upcoming magazines.
First, on page 77 is the second column from DFI's Sustainability Committee,
titled Foundations for a Sustainable Future, which showcases best practices for
sustainable foundations. This article is a case history provided by Van 't Hek Group
on the reuse of steel sheet piles for a river wall renovation in the Netherlands,
which reduced the carbon footprint of the project by 43 percent. I hope you read the
first column in the Mar/Apr issue, which was a case history provided by Keller on a
low carbon solution for a project in Singapore. In upcoming issues other committee
members will share examples of how they implemented a more sustainable
solution for a project they were involved in designing or constructing. We
encourage you to take a look and pass the information on to colleagues and clients as
a model for incorporating sustainable practices into business practices.
On June 28, the Sustainability Committee is reintroducing the EFFC-DFI Carbon
Calculator with a 1-hour webinar presented by Chair Gerald Verbeek and Kimberly
Martin, Ph.D., P.E., senior engineer of innovation and sustainability at Keller. The
webinar demonstrates how to use this free tool to determine the carbon footprint for
your geotechnical
solutions. Sign up at www.dfi.org.
The second new column, It Takes a Village - Parenthood from Every Angle, is presented

by DFI's Women in Deep Foundations Committee. The committee's goal is to address
the challenges parents face, balancing a busy career with a busy family life. This first
column, on page 117, addresses the questions that arise when an expectant mother or
father start preparing for leave from work and the unexpected life changes of
becoming a parent. Committee members share their experience with parental leave
as both the parent and the employer. Many thanks to the committee for addressing
this topic, especially committee members Ann Beaver, Rebecca Scherzinger, Meeok
Kim, Amshu Chappa, Gisele Passalacqua, Johanna Simon, Rakshyaa Shrestha, Allison
Filas, Gaby Vasquez and committee chair, Lucky Nagarajan.
Besides these new features, I hope you enjoy this themed issue on Increased
Testing Saves (ITS) Money. Special thanks to guest editor, Gerald Verbeek, for
reviewing the articles, which have previously been presented during ITS Money
webinars. Started in 2019, the webinar series demonstrates how foundation testing
conducted during the design phase can provide data that optimizes foundation
design and construction procedures - ultimately saving money while increasing the
quality of the foundation. Visit the DFI Testing and Evaluation Committee page at
www.dfi.org to view all webinar presentations and download fact sheets you can
share with your clients to illustrate and recommend additional testing.
Lastly, enjoy this issue's promotion of SuperPile'22 being held in St. Louis,
Missouri on June 15-17. Thank you to the organizing committee leaders and
members, speakers, exhibitors, sponsors and attendees for organizing what will be
a " Super " event. See details on pages 27-31.
