Congratulations, Professor Michael Chew, on the publication of the 6th edition of his book "Construction Technology for Tall Buildings". This latest edition contains text and illustrations that have been thoroughly revised to present the latest technologies, methodologies, and processes for the construction of tall buildings, from foundation, basement, and superstructure to roof. Contemporary sustainability concerns, as well as the latest regulations and standards, are highlighted. #facultypublication #nusdbe #builtenvironment #constructiontechnology #publication #nus #dbe

Even when WE (Steven Winter Associates) aren’t presenting, we are “presented”. The ever incredible Paul Ormond presenting at the Boston Society for Architecture’s Wagdy Anis (Building Enclosure) Symposium how the efforts we make as building performance implementers can have game-changing effects to grid modification (a point I have made in other arenas tackling the “costs of grid modernization” discussion—the costs are dispersed with better performance in buildings).

🌟 Day 2 of the Challenging Glass Conference at the Delft University of Technology! 🌟 Today, our founder, Dr. Thomas Henriksen, presented a compelling synopsis of our paper titled "Optical Distortions in Architectural Glass: Review of Categorization, Evaluation and Measurement Methods." Dr. Henriksen's presentation shed light on the complexities of optical distortion in multi-layer architectural glass, such as insulated glass units, which typically comprise combinations of heat-treated and laminated glass. The paper provided a review of 8 types of optical distortion found in practice on projects, together with the findings from preliminary laboratory tests carried by Delft University of Technology. In conclusion, there is a need to carry out further research to better understand the causes behind the different optical phenomena and to develop new methods to objectively assess their effects on the aesthetic quality of architectural glass. We're proud to contribute to the advancement of architectural glass technology and to be part of this prestigious conference. #ArchitecturalGlass #OpticalDistortions #EngineeringInnovation #ResearchAndDevelopment #FacadeEngineering #ChallengingGlassConference #Conference Stay tuned for more updates from the conference and our ongoing projects!
Presented by Ari Golonek Today's buildings require expansive open spaces, interconnectivity between floors, energy efficiency, and a top-tier finish. Introducing fire safety into the equation often results in conflicting requirements. Navigating fire compliance is a challenge for architects, frequently limiting the client's design aspirations. #InhouseGroup3YourCPDprovider #ArchitectsAustralia #Builders #Certifiers

A diagrid, or diagonal grid, is a structure that enhances a building's ability to manage loads and resist forces during an earthquake. We can find an example of this efficient engineering solution in Torre 8111, designed by Taller de Arquitectura de Bogotá. Learn more about our building solutions at cmx.to/3EtyvZf

This ancient structure exemplifies the remarkable durability and ingenuity of early engineering. Bridge infrastructure has long been essential to connectivity, from ancient Roman stone arch bridges, known for their durability, to today's modern marvels. Combining innovative design and engineering precision, bridges enhance mobility and shape the identities of cities. At the 12th Australian Small Bridges Conference and Exhibition, SMEC’s bridge specialists will showcase their engineering achievements through a range of important topics, including insights on fire hazards in bridge structures, improvements to current construction methodologies, the adoption of alternative design considerations, and key pedestrian bridge projects delivered in the last 12 months that are connecting and strengthening communities. Together, we aim to build more than just structures—we strive to shape resilient, sustainable urban environments that reflect our dedication to innovation, collaboration, and making a meaningful impact on the world.
