Are you an offsite builder? Are you still using traditional or non-insulated methods of construction when building secure or security rated units? Over the upcoming weeks we are going to focus on the time savings, cost savings and many other benefits our high security composite panel systems can bring to your secure offsite construction project #offsiteconstruction #compositepanels #physicalsecurity

Berns Infrastructure previously provided a backstop design for a jack-and-bore operation installing new storm drain pipe beneath I-515 in Las Vegas, NV. An engineered backstop was needed because the jack-and-bore launching area was not located inside a typical subsurface launching pit. Rather, it was at ground level and the backstop design was necessary to withstand up to 100-tons of thrust from the equipment. It consisted of steel plates supported by 3 steel piles with strict minimum depth and shaft backfill requirements. Another difficult aspect of design: just a few feet behind the backstop was a steep downslope which significantly impacted the passive resistance of the piles. #construction #infrastructure #stormdrainage #jackandbore #graniteconstruction #freewayconstruction #draingeimprovements

Luke is doing a rough staking so he is close but not exact however for things such as the foundation of a home those have to be exact points and for that, different equipment is used to get exact spots. #Staking #LukesLens #Engineer #Engineering #CivilEngineering

What is the Purpose of using Caissons for Construction

The Oklahoma City Council approved a zoning change allowing a developer to build what is planned to be a 1,907-ft tower—and North America's tallest structure—in a mixed-use development. The rezoning, which passed by an 8-to-1 vote, removes the height restriction originally placed on the site. Further approvals from the council will be needed as the plan moves ahead. The project as currently envisioned consists of a base with three mid-rise towers and a fourth, the Legends Tower, that if built would set a height record for the U.S. and North America.

Headed to Ice District to cheer on the Oilers tonight? Look up and find Encore Tower just south of Roger's Place and the Moss Pit. TWS completed Encore Tower with Westrich Pacific in 2020 boasting a 7 level underground parkade, 140,000ft2 of retail space and 43 floors of residential living. Providing Mechanical and Electrical Engineering for this project posed several challenges, including a 75' deep zero lot line parkade. #Oilers #electricalconsulting #mechanicalconsulting #electricalengineering #mechanicalengineering #basebuilding #tenantimprovement #construction

Over 450 local residents have now registered support on the Council’s planning portal for Ballymore and Sainsbury’s Kensal canalside scheme using Just Build Homes. Each one setting out in their own words why they support it. It’s not a one off - across the country, on schemes of all shapes and sizes, people are using Just Build Homes to register support. We now have a suite of services in place to engage supportive audiences at all stages of the planning process - from Local Plan allocations, through pre-app to post submission. So how do we do it? How do we reach this audience? Here’s three tips. 1. Talk about housing. 2. Engage those most likely to gain. 3. Talk about what interests them. Come and talk to the Shared Voice and Just Build Homes team if you’d like to know more. Your communications should be about more than a tick box exercise, it should be about building advocates and allies.

Building enclosures can directly affect the longevity and energy efficiency of a building. Building enclosure commissioning (BECx) helps building owners to test and quantitatively report on the performance of their buildings. Performance testing is typically carried out during the construction phase of a new building, but retro-commissioning can be completed for existing structures when trying to ascertain the cause of leaks.
