HOW EXPANSION JOINT EXPERTISE HELPS IMPROVE INDUSTRIAL WASTEWATER SYSTEM RELIABILITY

July 11, 2022

HOW EXPANSION JOINT Whitepaper
Nearly all industries have wastewater treatment plants. These facilities are designed to meet pretreatment requirements imposed by local or state governments. Pretreatment rules were enacted to prevent industrial discharges from affecting or passing through domestic wastewater treatment plants, so industry is seeing upgrades or new builds to comply.

Wastewater piping systems are constructed from a variety of materials depending on the media flowing through the pipes. These pumping and piping systems can be complex, causing havoc and downtime when failures occur.

UNPACKING THE BENEFITS OF STRUCTURAL BIM

whitePaper | September 19, 2022

Building Information Modeling, or BIM, is first and foremost a centralized, collaborative process where project stakeholders work together and share information. This allows for better organization of design and construction, with professionals from various disciplines contributing to the process. Naturally, this goes beyond simply sharing a 3D model, as each model contains data that will be useful throughout the project life cycle. Historically however, construction professionals worked in isolation, as the means of communication and technology weren’t as evolved as they are today. Sometimes, for instance, important information on 2D drawings would get lost. Consequently, the design phase was often plagued with fragmented deliverables, miscommunication and limited visualization, which often required rework.

How component shortages are changing the construction equipment industry

whitePaper | September 22, 2022

Heightened volatility in global supply chains will persist into the future. This has major implications for the construction equipment industry. Based on data from both developed and developing markets, we identify five categories of disruption that are causing component scarcity in the short, medium and long term: geopolitical, structural, environmental, operational and reputational disruptions. For most industry players, geopolitical and structural risks are top of mind.

INTERNET OF THINGS IN CONSTRUCTION

whitePaper | February 27, 2022

The term Internet of Things has become increasingly popular over the last few years, although it has actually existed for a long time, i.e., going back many years. It is probably one of the most talked about technological developments in the construction industry at the moment. But how far away are we from actually using and benefiting from the Internet of Things in construction? How complex is it and what can you do with it? Or perhaps how do you get ready for it if the Internet of Things is to change the industry considerably in the coming years?

Modern Methods Of Construction 2023

whitePaper | March 14, 2023

MMC is ultimately about improving efficiency and productivity in both design and in construction. It is widely known that construction has a substantial productivity gap compared to many other sectors and MMC has been suggested as one of the methods to tackle this challenge. Although described as a “product-led” type of construction, MMC is also about developing the manufacturing processes and how these processes are executed.
