"Ken Roush is widely recognized as an expert Mass Concrete Specialty Engineer. He is highly regarded by contractors, engineers and owners. We started our last project with a different Mass Concrete Engineer and our CEI had multiple issues with our first mass concrete plan. The CEI kept asking us why we didn't contract with Ken at E & L Support Services, Inc., to write our plan. After several months of failed attempts with our first engineer we hired Ken and had an approved mass concrete plan for 300+ mass concrete placements within a few weeks.
Ken is knowledgeable enough to speak on a highly technical level with an expert; patient enough to explain the process to a novice. He was able to perform several field inspections on short notice which helped keep our project on schedule. I have recommended Ken to friends in the industry and I expect to work with him again in the future."

"Ken has the unique quality of being very acclimated to concrete materials, constituents and production processes. In addition, Ken has historically been a great asset in laboratory testing and certification training. His service gave accurate forecast of thermal predictions providing real decision options for the successful completion of the project while maintaining cost within budget for the contractor. He also provided quality options for the Structural Engineer of record. Having known and been involved with Ken for over 15 years in Florida and now Alabama and seeing his performance of NRMCA Plant Inspections and Mass Concrete Plans & Schmidt Models designs, I would recommend Ken for any type of concrete and testing related consultation services required by an engineer (to include State Materials Engineers), contractors or ready mix producers."
