creating families in revit, it helps designers to create elements specific to a project’s needs, ensuring precise modeling. Also, it requires defining their geometry, adding parameters, and setting constraints to make them dynamic and adaptable. special thanks to our great instructor Selim Badwy and Kayan Academy group 44 task 14

The NJIT CE495 Fall 2024 Structural Design for Tall Buildings class has concluded, marking another memorable semester for senior students. This course provided a comprehensive introduction to the structural workflow, starting with the fundamentals of tall building design and covering key topics such as structural criteria (including building codes), floor framing, lateral systems, foundation systems, and concluding with structural material takeoff. It served as an eye-opening experience, equipping future structural engineers and designers with essential knowledge and skills. John A.

There is a special dynamic that makes the AEC world different from every industry on the planet and it all boils down to being very systems and process oriented in a technical manner. Contractors don't randomly build buildings for fun...there is a system and process of how it happens in a very precise manner in every facet from the beginning to the end. Architects don't randomly layout and design buildings....there is a system and process bound by building codes, cost considerations, best practices, and industry standards for a design of a building to be completed. Engineers don't randomly decide on MEP or Structural designs either...there is a system and process of how to design with the parameters of an architects floor plan, cost considerations, building codes, manufacturers guidelines, industry standards, and best practices. When The Lion Attitude was built it was based on that same system and process manner in with AEC professionals work on a daily basis tied back to the I+M+P+A+C=T math in application so it's clear what leadership should look like. On the same end it's also designed to tie back to the math so you can see what happens when things don't add up. If you don't have Purpose.....the math dosen't work.... If you take Action and don't connect....the math doesn't work... If you Connect and don't deliver Action...the math doesn't work.... For years I always got strange looks about being so systems and process oriented, But our entire AEC would would not exist without them and I can tell you I am not interested in randomly doing things when it comes to our field for fun. Every piece of my success in AEC has always been built on a system and process....so The Lion Attitude was built in the same manner...built just for people that are doing this every day. And I don't think this spanish structure in San Juan built in the 1500's was randomly built either....all system and process... --- 👋 Hi, I'm Kirby and my passion is reinventing leadership in the AEC field!

Yesterday I had a really interesting meeting with a practice based in Manchester. In their own words: "You’ve come a long way from what we’ve seen before. A lot of people provide these models, but the interface, the way you can interact with it and the ease of the import into Revit are fantastic. This would fit great into our workflow.” Sometimes it's not until you see something in action, you realize the impact it can have on your practice. It's also good to remember that different stakeholders in your practice will benefit from it in slightly different ways. There's one thing for certain. We're transforming the way practices work in the early stages for the better. Helping practices move from spending time building their own models from scratch, or buying generic, barely editable models, with a platform which enables you to get the exact models and maps you need the way you want and need them. WITH THE ARCHITECT IN MIND!

I really picked the wrong day off (Sunday) to sit down and prepare for the next Delta/SPHstructures CPD - its glorious outside. But. Here we are. The plan was to start populating the slides for the first session on Competency as I filled in the Structural Annex bits of my competency document, but then I thought, I'll just give this a quick read... Urghk. Is anyone else reading these and coming away with more questions than answers? Just on the UK SPEC, Structural & Facade Annex requirements alone, this has added +35 pages to my competency document before I've even begun to add the evidence. I've asked this before, but whose checking that?? - In practice. It should be the Principal Designer. Are they even aware of these requirements, do they even check it, or is it a cursory glance over. We were asked to bid on a new HRB structural assessment this week and apparently we were up against a firm who include all the investigation and testing requirements within their fee as well. The question was asked if we could do the same, I said no as there's a lot to do before we even know what's required for any investigation and testing works. Competency wasn't mentioned once. Which got me thinking - there isn't really a Principal Designer acting on the clients behalf when these first Safety Case reports are first been called. Could that spell trouble? Possibly. The other people who should be checking this are; - Whoever reviews this for the joint ICE / IStructE register. How many people are reviewing this, over how long? Who knows. The register is due to open next month (August), I've emailed again to confirm, but still no news on this other than the original announcement. Is this firstly, going to catch on and be a thing that the industry embraces (I have my doubts right now) and secondly, how does it sit in the hierarchy of importance for people looking into our industry, i.e. its above CEng status according the UK SPEC as additional responsibilities. But will it ultimately just be amalgamated into CEng requirements further down the line if no one takes this up? Half the Structural Engineers I speak to aren't aware of this and most haven't lifted a finger regarding anything to do with competency documents. I certainly haven't been asked specifically for anything in this regard in any job as yet. My biggest concern though (I know, we're not even at the good stuff), is the shear amount of information needed - and how to differentiate it between ourselves, Fire and Building Service Engineers. Lets assume we divide our evidence between new build and existing structures, and apply a similar grading scale similar to CEng requirements. Are we (SE, Fire and Building Services) all expected to at least have a Knowledge of each section? Or will there be arguments as to what is 'applicable to our role'? Which makes me think there needs to be at least one person from each discipline reviewing this stuff. Lots of questions. Not many answers yet.
