Faced with a perfect storm of climate disasters and aging infrastructure, all over the world, the question is being asked: how do we build infrastructure that lasts while facing unpredictable conditions the likes of which we have never seen before? The answer: building for resilience, which demands proper material selection. Watch the video to learn more about how steel is an ideal material for building sustainable infrastructure.

➡️Challenge: How can we be sure that larger piles can be successfully driven? 🌊Our solution: We conduct a drivability study using soil data and recommend an optimal driving plan, energy levels, blows per minute and expected underwater noise and analyse risks such as pile run and pile refusal. 📽️Find out more: https://hubs.ly/Q02L4C4C0

Anna Neuheimer and I have a new paper out. We found a thermal constant to explain the annual timing of spawning of Pacific herring https://lnkd.in/dFk9U8Gs #degreedays #climatechange

With introduction of alternative energy sources into rail transportation, accompanying blast and fire testing is needed to ensure safe operations and resiliency against security threats while also achieving greenhouse gas emission reduction goals. https://lnkd.in/ePyfP7wp

I post a lot about what we are doing to improve resilience (taking a punch from a storm and getting back up quicker), and this video shows a key component: poles that will stay standing during high wind events like hurricanes. This is how we will more resiliently provide #energyforwhatmattersmost. #txlege

A great example of the strength and reliability of composite poles manufacturered by RS poles.

The last stage in the implementation of central adaptation networks is: Testing and balance using the Hydronic Manometer

Advancing Techniques: Minimizing Gas Leaks 🔥 In the ever-evolving world of firefighting, innovation is 🔑 to saving lives and minimizing damage. One advanced technique we're implementing involves using wide fog 💨 by both teams moving simultaneously on a counting move to shut off valves and minimize gas leaks. This synchronized approach enhances efficiency and safety on the scene. Together, we're constantly pushing the boundaries to better protect our communities! 💪🚒 #FirefighterTechniques #InnovationInAction #SafetyFirst What do you think? Is the technique we used correct and effective, or does it need revision? 🔧 Let us know your thoughts in the comments below! 👇 https://lnkd.in/dBicbaWy

On the Francis Scott Key bridge issue: I am convinced that the investigation that has just begun about the Francis Scott Key bridge in Baltimore will be able to answer some of the most delicate questions: why this very bridge was hit, why such an important port for the States and for the European Union is practically closed for business a few months from now? Then there will be assessments of the consequences on the export of LNG to Europe, on the export of passenger cars, on the elections for the White House and so on. All in all, let's face it: the Francis Scott Key Bridge accident may be more than that. But let's hope we don't find that out from the investigation, because - if it was a provoked incident, then it's defined as an attack, and there aren't many global powers that could be behind such a complex and perfectly planned attack . https://lnkd.in/duCjDZgv
