Needham DBS Summer Internship

The Fort Wayne office of Needham DBS welcomed Annie Nielson for a summer internship. Annie is an undergrad student at Brigham Young University studying Civil Engineering and will receive her Bachelor of Science Degree in December 2017. She will enter in to the Master Degree program immediately after graduation. We hope to have her back again next summer.

Annie assisted with several projects during the summer using both AutoCAD and REVIT to create construction documents. Annie was exposed to many aspects of structural engineering including load development, wood framed structures, steel framed structures, shallow foundation systems, deep foundation systems, tilt-up construction, steel detailing, and connection design. Annie was also able to tour a joist and deck plant, a structural fastener plant, and a steel fabricator’s plant.

Needham DBS thanks Annie for her had work during the summer and wishes her the best as she completes her undergrad studies and continues on to the master’s program at BYU.
