SUMMARY:Structural Engineers Association of Illinois Presents a Documentary: Engineers at Ground Zero
DESCRIPTION:Engineers at Ground Zero: A Screening & Conversation \nWhen the Twin Towers fell\, the world watched first responders run toward danger. What most people never saw were the structural engineers working alongside them – assessing collapsed and compromised structures in real time\, keeping rescue crews safe\, and racing to stop the Hudson River from flooding the entire NYC subway system. \nEngineers at Ground Zero tells that story for the first time. Featuring firsthand accounts from the engineers and first responders who lived it\, along with never-before-seen archival photos and footage\, this documentary is a powerful look at how 9/11 reshaped building design and emergency response – and a story our profession owes to the next generation. \nJoin SEAOI for a special screening\, followed by a live Q&A with a Founding Member of the Structural Engineers Association of New York\, the very organization whose members are featured in this film. \nThe events of September 11\, 2001\, changed the world – and the AEC industry – forever. Structural engineers\, architects\, contractors\, trade partners\, material suppliers\, and friends are all welcome. \nEvent Details \n\nDate: September 24\, 2026\nSocial Hour: 5:00 PM | Screening: 6:00 PM\nLocation: AON Building – 200 East Randolph Street – Chicago\, IL\nRuntime: 1 Hour + Q&A\nRSVP by: September 22\, 2026\n\nUpon arrival: Check in at the security desk\, inform you are here for an event in the auditorium. \nRegistration \nAttendee – $25.00 \nSponsor – $250.00 (includes 4 tickets + your company logo in all future marketing) \nAll proceeds will be donated to Tunnel to Towers Foundation. \nMEET YOUR PRESENTER \n\n\n \n\nEdward M. DePaola\, PE\, SECB\, F.SEI\nPresident & CEO\n \nSeverud Associates Consulting Engineers\, PC \nEd DePaola\, PE is President and CEO of Severud Associates Consulting Engineers PC\, New York.

In March of 2012\, he was made a Fellow of The Structural Engineering Institute of ASCE. \nOver the past 40 years at Severud\, he has designed numerous projects including high-rise buildings\, long-span facilities and special structures requiring innovative structural solutions. His structural designs include the Jeppesen Terminal Roof and Glass Enclosure Structures of the Denver International Airport and the American Airlines Terminal at JFK International Airport. He was the principal-in-charge of the “Bank of America Tower at One Bryant Park”\, formerly the second tallest building in NYC and the first high-rise office structure in the world to receive a LEED Platinum rating. \nHis current projects include the recently completed One Vanderbilt Avenue and the new headquarters building for JP Morgan Chase at 270 Park Avenue. \nEd will join us after the screening for a live Q&A – a rare chance to hear directly from someone with firsthand ties to the community this film honors.
