🚧PROJECT UPDATE!🚧 Our #SGHouston team has been weathering the storms and continuing to make progress at the Harris County Emergency Service District No. 7 Spring Fire Department W.W. "Cotton" Weaver Training Center. Electrical feeds to the logistics building have been installed, and the team is currently focused on procurement with confirmed dates established for the generator, air handlers and steel that are required for installation during phase one of the project. Next steps will include underground plumbing and utility installation at Lexington Road. Stay tuned to watch this project develop! #SGBuildsCommunities #LiveTeamwork

While rehabilitating an existing plant there are many factors that play a part. Engineers, owners, and contractors can develop a plan and account for: - shutdown timeframe - bypassing/flow control - equipment compatibility - structure conditions - Etc. However more times than not, a curveball will be thrown during these shutdowns. It’s important to have all parties involved with the project team on hand and available during the shutdowns. It’s imperative to use resources available from contractors, owners or suppliers so normal operating procedures can be commenced as quickly as possible. This is picture of our crew at the Western Area WWTP in Huntsville AL. During this shutdown we closed off existing channels and demoed existing equipment at the plant headworks to prepare for new equipment installation. Shutout to Garver and Huntsville WPC for assisting on this shutdown to prepare our work environment and getting the plant online quickly. #wastewaterconstruction

Doing some dynamic water testing yesterday for Hartz Mountain Industries and K L Masters Construction Company In Weehawken. Two great customers working hard to build great buildings. Have you ever tested or even thought about testing your through-wall packages terminal units? A static chamber test doesn’t really work, air leakage is so high you would need 6 blowers, but dynamic testing is a great way to make sure they are storm resistant. AMCA has a lab test for this but honestly it’s just another labeling program that doesn’t ensure they will work in the field. This can be done pretty reasonable on-site (in this case in the garage) or in our lab. When we do it in the lab we ask that the supply/install team are in attendance so they can make changes if there are problems and we can re-test to make sure the remediation works. We’ve done standalone units like this and units installed in window and curtainwall systems. I can honestly say once we work out the details not one job has experienced the leaks we see all too often that originate from the PTAC. www.bet-na.net

InfraSource’s dedication to safety and The Capacity Model shows through our Good Catch program. Recently, our field crews demonstrated remarkable attention to detail, professionalism, and a systematic approach to hazard identification. Their efforts directly prevented several unwanted events and helped build the capacity to fail safely. 👷♂️ ⚡ An electric foreman noticed an irregularity on a nearby power pole. Upon inspection, they found an old secondary service line disconnected from a nearby garage. Swift action was taken to safely de-energize the line, averting potential danger. 🔧 During a project walk-down, the crew identified a deteriorated cross-arm brace on an adjacent power pole. The foreman promptly notified the utility construction manager and took corrective measures to eliminate the hazard. These recent events highlight our proactive and vigilant approach to safety. Each Good Catch reinforces our commitment to safety and addressing risks in the field. 💪🔒 Read more about the Good Catch program. - From Hazard Identification to Safety Success: The Good Catch Program (https://bit.ly/3xeLEFF) #GoodCatch #SafetyFirst #InfraSource #WeAreQuanta

August 11th is a great reminder to always call 811 before you dig! 📞 Ensure safety and prevent damage by getting underground utilities marked. One simple call can make all the difference. #Call811 #SafetyFirst #DigSmart #Sunland #Safety #811 #PipelineConstruction #Pipeline #Construction #SafetyFirst

In most utilities, the ground surface space between transformers and coolers is not normally covered individually. Transformers can be found sandwiched between fire barriers (walls) made of concrete or other materials in the vast majority of power substations. Nevertheless, this is dependent on the distance between the transformers as well as the distance to the components that are nearby (9–15 m). The majority of the time, the height of the walls is proportional to the height of the transformer tank as well as the size of the conservator or bushings, with the greatest amount of overlap being between 0.3 and 2 meters. To a large extent, the length of the barriers is determined by the lengths of the transformer tank and coolers, with an overlap of no more than two to six meters, or by the dimensions of the oil-containing pit.

We can’t emphasise the importance of understanding and knowing what is within your working surroundings, it doesn’t take much to gather the information on utilities within the workplace. If you have planned works to break ground, and you don’t have C2 drawings, then stop work, and ask your manager to supply these crucial sources of information.
Each year there re around 15 life changing injuries or fatalities due to contact with #electricity and a number of these are from people digging into underground electrical cables. Take a look at this blog post about an incident earlier this year on the Wellington Electricity network where a worker using a jackhammer damaged a 11,000 volt cable and sustained serious injuries. Discover the real-world consequences of unsafe digging practices and why it matters to you and your community.
