If you have any queries, then reach out to Franco Piva or Filippo Egenter. ____ ✅🔔 If you appreciate our posts, please follow, like, or share for more. #masstimber #structuralengineering #civilengineering #dfma

The Autumn 2023 edition of our quarterly newsletter is now available! We had some great events this past quarter, including the restart of the IMechE Aberdeen Young Members' Panel. A look ahead to events planned for 2024 is also included. Also, a reminder that our End of Year Celebration event is less than a week away, there a small amount of tickets still available.

Probably not everyone or engineers are aware that 4th of every March has been proclaimed “World Engineering Day" (WED), a day set aside for Sustainable Development awareness. This year's 4th of March will make it the fifth WED which was meant to be celebrated annually on every 4th of March. It started in 2020 after it was proclaimed in 2019 by the United Nationals Educations, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) at its 40th General Conference. This was based on a proposal from the World Federation of Engineering Organisations (WFEO). The day offers an opportunity to highlight engineers and engineering’s achievements in our modern world and improve public understanding of how engineering and technology are central to modern life and for sustainable development. An international day with coordinated celebrations across the world is a brilliant opportunity to increase the profile of engineering. The day is also an opportunity to engage with government and industry to address the need for engineering capacity and the quality of engineers around the world and develop strategic frameworks and best practices for the implementation of engineering solutions for sustainable development. This year's theme, "Engineering Solutions for Sustainable World" is to explore the innovative engineering approaches aimed at fostering a more sustainable future for generations to come. In the subsequent post to come, I will use this medium to contribute to the little experience I have gathered In the course of my work with a governmental agency and private companies, spanning from the Construction, ICT, and Iron & Steel making industry. I have also contributed immensely in awareness and development of sustainable materials and environment which are part of the United Nation’s SDGs agenda. #worldengineeringday #sustainability #climatechange #climateaction

Building the future ; Drive Forward in this Engineering Pathway of Progress....

“How do we get to look back at that stream of goodness that a civil and structural engineer should see?”, is an important question John Armitage - Ramboll Technical Director, Bridges, examines in his paper looking at the benefits of considering the holistic impact of a project versus isolated interventions with perceived benefits.   He points out how in the quest to avoid creating harm and adding to the climate, resource and biodiversity emergency, it is imperative that civil and structural engineering takes a holistic approach to projects.   By aiming to do good at the same time as avoiding harm, the focus shifts from a partial element of a project, such as embodied carbon, to the whole picture that can account among others for the effect on natural finite resources, the timing of interventions or the impact on communities.   📌 Join the dialogue on 10-12 April, at the IABSE - International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering symposium in Manchester. #sustainability #climate #ethics

Study Engineering as I did. Ruha Tacey helps you select the sector.

SED 20: Book Launch! This edition of the Structural Engineering Document discusses key issues in selecting and incorporating eco-efficient waste materials capable of enhancing the sustainability of structural concrete in construction projects. The cost-efficiency of using recycled aggregates in structural concrete is shown by several world-renowned researchers. https://buff.ly/3XyVEEz

Don't miss out on our first webinar of 2024! February 13 at 12 pm EST Embodied Carbon in Lab Design with Jonathan Broman This webinar will include discussions on: - The definition of “Embodied Carbon”, specifically in construction material and the increasing need for it to be addressed and reduced. - The identification of possible solutions / strategies designed to successfully address the challenges of embodied carbon. - The comparison of materials (with a focus on lab work surfaces) suited for lab design that can enable a reduction in embodied carbon. - The available tools to assess embodied carbon when selecting materials.
