🔍Adapting the Red Team/Blue Team Concept in rebar detailing offices!🔍 In the dynamic field of rebar detailing, ensuring the highest quality and accuracy of drawings is paramount. Inspired by strategies from cybersecurity, I've introduced an innovative approach to quality assurance: the Red Team/Blue Team concept🎖 ➡️ What is Red Team/Blue Team? Originally used in cybersecurity, the Red Team/Blue Team methodology involves two opposing teams. The Red Team plays the role of attackers, attempting to find vulnerabilities, while the Blue Team defends and protects. This adversarial process helps identify weaknesses and strengthen defenses. 💡By creatively adapting this concept, we can enhance the quality assurance process (and even more fun🙃!) in rebar detailing offices: 1. Formation of Teams: 🟦 Blue Team: Responsible for creating initial rebar detailing drawings, focusing on accuracy and compliance. 🟥 Red Team: Critically reviews these drawings, actively seeking out errors, inconsistencies, and potential issues. 2. Execution: 🟦 Blue Team: Completes the detailing work, adhering to standards and protocols. 🟥 Red Team: Conducts a thorough review, documenting findings and providing constructive feedback. 3. Collaborative Resolution: 🤝Both teams engage in a debrief session to discuss the identified issues and collaboratively develop solutions. This fosters a culture of continuous learning and improvement. 4. Role Rotation: 🔁 Periodically rotating team roles ensures all members gain experience in both creating and critically assessing drawings, promoting well-rounded skills and fresh perspectives. This innovative adaptation leverages structured adversarial review to boost overall quality without relying on advanced technology. It's a testament to how cross-industry strategies can be reimagined to drive excellence in any field.

Interesting read.

⭕ Data Center Design : Basic Guidelines for Suspended Ceiling and Raised Floor (Access Floor) ✅ The access floor shall be minimum of 450mm (18 in) above the slab. When determining the minimum raised floor height for an air plenum, the mechanical engineer shall analyze the height requried to achieve the desired air distribution. Considerations shall include all under-access floor obstructions such as network cabling pathways, power systems and pathways, and cooling system piping. ✅ For high power density equipment where the space under access floor is used for cooling, the access floor should be minimum of 900mm (36 in) above the slab. ✅ The minimum ceiling height should not be less than 3m (10ft) from the finished floor to any obstruction such as sprinklers, lighting fixtures or cameras. ✅ At least 450mm (18 in) clearance from sprinklers to raceways, cabinets and racks shall be maintained. ✅ The recommended ceiling height for computer room spaces (from slab -to-slab) is 4.5m (15ft) or greater. #sprinkler #datacenter #clearance #datacenterinfrastructure #ceiling #datacenterdesign #airflow #cooling #hvac #suspendedceilings #raisedfloor #guidelines #designer #mechanicalengineer #pathways #cameras #power #construction #bicsi #rcdd #ict #sprinkler #highdensity #lightingfixtures #slab

When I talk to architectural firms about bringing on LiDAR As-built Documentation, I get one of the following responses: ” We don’t need it”, "We have our junior staff do it", or “I wish, but we can't get the owner to pay up for it.” 🤦♀️ As they say this to me and I ask about their project timeline, I hear stories of late deliveries, hard-to-read drawings, or junior staff mistakes that lead to missing crucial details. They don't realize working with bad as-builts negatively impacts the final project delivery. Relying on poor as-builts can lead to: - Mistaking an electrical outlet for an HVAC component and having to redesign when someone on-site notices the mistake. - Miscommunication and RFI back-and-forths between the Architects, GC, Engineers, and Owners. - Days spent redesigning and correcting the as-builts to company standards - Delivering the final design only to discover an important structural beam exists that wasn't detailed in the drawings, and having to redo the work. Does any of this sound like your past experiences? Talk to me to ensure high-quality as-builts get delivered to everyone in your project and decrease the amount of site-visits and RFIs your team conducts for each project. #AEC #Asbuilt #FieldSurvey #Architects #AdaptiveReuse #HistoricPreservation #LIDAR #LaserScanning

good opportunity

Who is #SupervisingConstruction these days? The images in this post were taken on the Lindfield site reported last week. See link below. #ConcreteSlump has attracted much interest. There were over 242,000 impressions, 362 comments and 69 reposts. Hopefully there were a few more #Engineers out on the beat this week, emboldened to be more assertive in performing the public interest duty they have as professionals. Given that interest, the conversation is worth continuing. The Engineer on this site is #HenryandHymas. They will be disappointed to be named. Sorry. Who is signing off on critical aspects of #BuildingStandards here? Firstly the installation of #FormworkProps was hap-hazard. When pointed out the #SiteManager was quick to say, 'we will get onto this straight away.' Thats not the point. Who is signing off before a concrete pour? When asked about the preparation of surfaces between pours, the same answer, 'we will get on to it'. #AS3600 is quite clear about what is required. This preparation is often overlooked - its important. The next challenge on this site was that the columns on the deck inspected were to be poured through the reinforcing, 2-days before the slab pour. The manager assured me that the concretors were very competent and always cleaned up any spill. Hmmm. Then, there was #PermanentFormwork along the boundary wall, again. It was potentially a wet-wall and exposed to future adjacent fire hazard. The more concerning aspect was the position of the vertical reinforcing bars. The pouring of this wall had been apparently been signed off and was good to go. Lets's leave it to the more qualified to comment on all of this. There is more to take away from this site inspection. To their credit #Thirdi have recently completed the remediation of another of their projects in Sutherland. The builder there was #Samdora. Fortunately a competent #iCIRT rated builder was appointed to complete over $2 million worth of defects. What was learned? Maybe its time to pay more attention to what is going on at their sites? These and many important issues are constantly observed and neglected. There is a clear lack of knowledge or consciousness, or both. Another issue was the sample brickwork covered in the next post. There will be many excuses like, 'but this was just for approving the brick colour.' It will be interesting what the #Architects have to say? #ComplywithStandards #ImproveSupervision #RestoreConfidence Link to last weeks post: https://lnkd.in/gQEbCdeZ

10 tips for installing a composite door on your own Step 1. Be careful not to measure the door too tightly; otherwise, the internal gaps will not be accurate Step 2. Ensure that the cill/thresher is straight, without any bends or dips Step 3. Make sure the opening is square by placing a level on the top, bottom, and sides of the brickwork Step 4. If the top, bottom, and sides of the door all touch the left side of the bubble on the level, it would be preferable if the door was installed with the level touching the left of the bubble, ensuring that it is all straight. Step 5. If the door is fitted in a twist, it should touch the frame evenly from top to bottom when it closes Step 6. Pack behind the bottom hinge to help prevent the door from dropping Step 7. Install a sleeved fixing through the top hinge to help prevent the door from dropping. As standard concrete screws are not always suitable for the top hinges of composite doors Step 8. The frame should be fixed straight with no bends or gaps Step 9. If you pack behind the latch, it will minimize the rattle when the door closes Step 10. Stand back and keep checking on how the door looks in the opening and also the internal gaps. You may not notice things when you are too close to your work.
