DCI’s multi-story warehouse project in Chicago is making its rounds, and that includes the most recent edition of Modern Steel Construction magazine. Authors Roger Heeringa, DCI Principal in Charge of Sustainability, and Jessica Martinez, PE, DCI Sustainability Specialist, help summarize how steel is playing a crucial role in the sustainable development of future warehouse designs. https://lnkd.in/gBM3NZWK #DCIEngineers #DCIDesign #DCISustainability #Sustainability #SustainableDesign #Warehouse #DistributionCenter #StructuralEngineering #StructuralEngineer Project Team: The Walsh Group - Walsh Construction & Archer Western, Ware Malcomb, Lyndon Steel Company LLC, and Nucor Corporation

The world has changed the circumstances/conditions have changed and now make this type of system viable, off site construction is the future due to quality issues, efficiency, sustainability, talented trades men scarce, programme constraints with insitu build, prelim savings (cranage scaffolding etc)

Very interesting option. Especially for areas with high earthquake activity

Optimising reused steel: 6-10 St Andrew Street Next up in our reused steel series is 6-10 St Andrew Street with Barr Gazetas for GPE, a refurbishment of a 1990s RC framed office building, with a 2-storey steel framed roof extension in the City of London. The procurement stage of 6-10 St Andrew Street coincided with the final development our HTS Stockmatcher, allowing it to be used as a trial project. In client meetings we demonstrated speculative match results (based on available stock at the time) that showed a high match percentage, resulting in a substantial reduction in embodied carbon. Expressing keen interest, GPE enthusiastically advocated for the integration of reused steel into the final design. The project started on site quickly, whilst the Stockmatcher allowed for the reservation steel elements in the stockyard with minimal delay. Using our Stockmatcher tool, we successfully matched 82% of the new steelwork with suitable reused elements. The project is currently underway, with the final steelwork elements being installed on site. Out of the 34 tonnes of steel used, an estimated 25 tonnes are anticipated to be from reused elements.

Board Chair | Investor | Operating Partner | PE & Hedge Fund Advisor | Infrastructure Services Executive
Dad always keeping it real!…Sometimes the old ways are the best ways…. The lesson here is to listen closely to an advisor who has very deep experience in the area you are looking to invest into. My first mentor (after dad of course) was an incredibly smart and accomplished executive in the construction industry named Dan Spiegel. While Danny and I did not always see eye to eye, I always listened closely to his perspective. It either provided affirmation for my view or gave me pause. In either case, I was better educated on the topic. #mentors #conviction #privateequity
