Doodie Calls’ Post

I was at Landmark Center for Big5Nigeria yesterday the last day. The exhibition floor was a buzz with over 140 exhibitors including CDK Industries, Sana Group, Saint-Gobain, Bauer, Caprari, Sika, Promax, HMD/ Schwing Stetter, Cormart-Fosroc, Doka and Masa and others, highlighting the latest advancements in the construction industry. I gained more insight on new invention and innovation in the construction industry. why was I there? 1. I was there because I get to gain knowledge that is not from my field. I love learning and gaining experience from new things. 2. I was there because I could/ would leverage on the knowledge gained to bring out something profitable and rewarding. 3. I get to meet with new people. #financialadvisor #financialsecurity #financialgoals #finances #loveforlearning #innovation #constructionindustry #construction #investmentstrategies #investmentadvice #knowledgesharing

Dave Whitmore, President and Chief Innovation Officer at Vector Corrosion Technologies, will be presenting at the 2024 ICRI Metro New York Annual Symposium on May 8, 2024. His topic? Quantifying the Sustainability Benefits of Extending Service Life of Concrete Structures. In his presentation, Dave will delve into case studies to demonstrate how extending the life of corroding reinforced concrete structures can have a positive impact on sustainability. As a registered Professional Engineer and an ICRI Fellow with over 40 years of experience, Dave is uniquely positioned to share insights on this critical topic. Concrete is a versatile material that forms the backbone of many structures, from streets to buildings. But as we strive for eco-friendly, sustainable construction, it’s essential to explore ways to reduce our carbon footprint. Dave’s presentation promises to shed light on how we can achieve this by extending the service life of concrete. If you’re passionate about sustainable construction, don’t miss Dave’s talk at 2:35 PM during the symposium. For more details about the symposium and other fascinating presentations, check out the 2024 ICRI-MNY Symposium website. https://lnkd.in/g2ZgnPfy See you there! #ConcretePreservation #Sustainability #ICRIMNY #StructuralEngineering

Throwback: Urbach Tower 2019. Step by step, we are publishing our videos on YouTube, which is a great opportunity to take a look back at some of ICD's past projects: https://lnkd.in/esWtHhgd The Urbach Tower is a unique wood structure. The design of the tower emerges from a new self-shaping process of the curved wood components. This pioneering development constitutes a paradigm shift in timber manufacturing from elaborate and energy-intensive mechanical forming processes that require heavy machinery to a process where the material shapes entirely by itself. This shape change is driven only by the wood’s characteristic shrinking during a decrease of moisture content. Components for the 14 m tall tower are designed and manufactured in a flat state and transform autonomously into the final, programmed curved shapes during industry-standard technical drying. This opens up new and unexpected architectural possibilities for high performance and elegant structures, using a sustainable, renewable, and locally sourced building material. The Urbach Tower constitutes the very first structure worldwide made from self-shaped, building-scale components. It not only showcases this innovative manufacturing approach and resultant novel timber structure; it also intensifies the visitors’ spatial involvement and landscape experience by providing a striking landmark building for the City of Urbach’s contribution to the Remstal Gartenschau 2019.

Maritime decarbonisation is not only a technological challenge. It also gives rise to profound contractual challenges.   Stephenson Harwood's marine and international trade team is working with BIMCO and another 30+ eminent companies and institutions on the Blue Visby Solution project, which involves both technological and contractual innovations, towards the aim of removing the single largest carbon inefficiency in maritime trade, the practice of ships to Sail Fast, Then Wait, which is responsible for about 20% of shipping's carbon footprint.   Partner Haris Zografakis is speaking, alongside Grant Hunter, at BIMCO's webinar "Blue Visby for Beginners", which will be aired on 4 October.
