Fantastic to see the new 'Lighting Design in Stations' manual now published by Network Rail and out in the marketplace, heralding new standards for performance, maintenance and manufacturing in rail lighting. Designplan Lighting can assist you with some of the significant changes detailed within, including MVP and Threshold Increment and what it means for platform options and future specification guidance. #longlifelighting = #sustainability Network Rail International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) Designplan Lighting

As land disappears, costs rise and timelines shrink, modular construction offers hope, but is it really the future or just a pipe dream? Modular solutions are becoming the new gold standard for data centers, offering hope for operators. But in cities like New York, with power shortages, limited space, and strict regulations, are urban environments simply too challenging for this future of construction? Or can innovation overcome the hurdles? Join us on March 24 at #DCDConnect New York as we dive into this high-stakes debate on the urban modular mirage in this expert-led closed door DCD>Debate.

#HappyThursday aka #FridayEVE LinkedIn family! #DYK that the United Kingdom's 50-year-old Carstairs junction was remodeled to improve rail travel between England and Scotland. The updated system provides a capacity for high-speed services to Edinburgh and Glasgow while reducing carbon emissions by 20% to 30%. This project helps to contribute to the railway's owners, Network Rail, goal to reach net zero emissions by 2045 in Scotland. Engineering firm, Arcadis used Bentley Systems software to create hashtag #digitaltwins and 3D models of Carstairs Junction. This approach helped to improve communication with several multidisciplinary #designteams, detected and resolved clashes earlier reducing design time by 35%, and saved £50 million. New track sections, overhead lines, signaling, and telecoms were installed, with improvements to station platforms, embankments, and drainage across the junction. Arcadis designed the electrification system to increase junction speeds from 40 to 110 miles per hour. #techtools #digitaltech #rails #connectingcities #engineerlife #3Dmodels #themoreyouknow #thefutureishere #thefutureisnow

The T2D Project will consist of two separate tunnels – the Southern Tunnels and the Northern Tunnels. The tunnels will be connected by an open motorway. When complete, more than 50% of the T2D Project will be tunnels. Watch the video to learn more about tunnels and motorway design. #adelaide #infrastructure #t2dproject #t2dtunnels

🚧 A 3600-Ton Tunnel Installed in Just a Weekend! 🚧 In a feat of engineering excellence, a 79-meter long tunnel weighing an astonishing 3600 tons was placed in just 3 days (May 20-22, 2016) along the A12 Highway towards Arnhem, Netherlands. ⚙️ This project demonstrates the power of precision engineering and timely execution—an incredible achievement that minimized disruption while ensuring the tunnel was set in place safely and efficiently. 📽️ Watch the video to see how this massive construction was completed in record time! 📽️: Unknown All rights reserved to respective owner.
