Degenkolb designed seismic renovation of a 42,000 square feet, 1905 wood and sandstone building for use as an engineering classroom facility. Major renovation elements included removal and reconstruction of the courtyard infill, removal and reconstruction of the first and second floor of the South Wing, and removal of the third floor and rebuilding the original trusses. In addition, modifications were made to existing structural elements including columns, footings, slabs and walls.

Why did you go into structural engineering?
I took an intro to structural engineering class with Dr. Hover and that class made me decide to go into structural engineering, rather than biomedical, which is what I had originally gone to school to study.
Little Known Fact:
I played violin in my school orchestra from 4th-12th grade.

Why did you go into structural engineering?
I grew up working construction in my father’s business. He relentlessly insisted I not “do what he does and ruin your body AND that I go to college”. And so I did, and Structural Engineering was what came most naturally.
Little Known Facts
I enjoy boating and tinkering on projects at our ‘family’ cabin at Shasta Lake.
Vegetarian.
Reuse is a hobby, and it’s not hoarding.

Why did you go into structural engineering?
My father is an architect who taught and encouraged me to build things. That interest in building developed from personal construction projects, to going to school to understand how building work, to helping my clients design the projects they need and desire.
Little Known Fact
I enjoy running and doing my own construction projects at home.
Question of the Day
What’s your favorite way to get to work?
Casual Carpool as you can often have an interesting conversation with someone you wouldn’t normally get to meet.
