ASCE Richmond had a great time at the annual Richmond Joint Engineering Council (RJEC) Banquet on march 13th hosted at The Jefferson Hotel! We had a full table of ASCE members, and it was also nice to connect with engineers from different disciplines. The highlight of the evening was our own Jeffrey Huffman receiving the Rodney E. Hanneman Community Service Award. We were honored to have nominated him, and although he could not be there, we are all very proud of his accomplishments. We will be recognizing him properly at a future ASCE gathering.

The Richmond engineering community proudly honors Jeffrey Huffman, MS, PE, F.ASCE, with the 2024 Dr. Rodney E. Hanneman Community Service Award. A Virginia Tech graduate with over 35 years of experience, Jeff currently serves as Operations Manager at KBJW and is a respected leader in geotechincal engineering.
Recognized as an ASCE Fellow for his significant contributions, Jeff’s distinguished career features teaching at Marshall University and working at the Army Corps of Engineers. Within the Richmond ASCE community, he’s made a lasting impact through his board service, including as President, and his leadership in educational outreach, providing scholarships and mentorship to students. His commitment to developing future engineers is also evident in his national involvement with ASCE student competitions and the Virginia Student Symposium.
Jeff’s commitment to mentorship, demonstrated by his work with local schools and universities, and his genuine personal connection with individuals, makes him a truly deserving award recipient. We are so grateful for his contributions and congratulate him on this well-earned honor.
