PBS is thrilled to be part of the Felida Park Senior Housing project. This project will provide 65 units of affordable housing for Clark County's seniors, along with all-inclusive care through the PACE program. Collaborating with Specialized Housing, Inc., William Wilson Architects, and others, PBS has contributed land use planning, civil engineering, landscape architecture, geological, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, traffic engineering, land surveying, and permitting support for the project.

Remember folks…. There’s no 2nd Layer if there’s no 1st Layer in place and barely stable. There’s no meaning to Audit what you are not managing. You define and plan your house from top-down… But you build it from down-up. And I’m not talking about civil architecture and engineering.

Yesterday, members of our Civil & Structural engineering team attended the consultation on the proposed Birmingham Local Plan at Cundall, hosted by the British Council for Offices Midlands. There was a good walk through of the draft low carbon policies by the author and how will tackle climate change through the planning process. Nice to see that their policies closely align with our ONE Creative environments (ONE) Carbon Reduction Plan. Interesting to hear challenging technical questions from various consultants in the audience. Very well presented by Maria Dunn and Ellie Hignett from BCC - I look forward to making our comments! #civilengineering #structuralengineering #lowcarbon #carbonreduction

Helping AEC professionals become successful BIM Coordinators/Managers || Work with me and 508 others in the program, link below || DM me BBC TRAINING and let’s chat
Topography Sandbox is a dynamic, hands-on tool for planning purposes. How can it be used in AEC? Urban planners can: - model new urban landscapes, observing potential impacts on the existing topography - demonstrate how various landscapes respond to flooding, Civil Engineers may use it to: - Visualize how proposed infrastructure projects will interact with the natural landscape - Evaluate the environmental impact of construction projects I wish I had this in school. Classes would certainly be more engaging and interesting. Video by @Diyode If you enjoyed this, reshare ♻️ to help spread the knowledge to others!

The Philippines is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, an area in the Pacific Ocean where many volcanic eruptions and earthquakes occur which is why around 20 earthquakes are experienced per day in the country. Earthquake resilience starts with sound engineering design. #talktous #earthquakeresilientinfrastructure #structuresdesignandengineering
Is your building earthquake-proof? Join our Business Group Leader for Structures - Design & Engineering, Rodolfo "Chao" Chua, Jr. As he presents design and detailing requirements for building structures at the 49th Philippine Institute of Civil Engineers (PICE) national convention in Davao City.

🌉 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐆𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: 𝐀𝐧 𝐄𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐥 🌉 The Golden Gate Bridge, an iconic symbol of engineering brilliance, stands as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. Constructed during the Great Depression, this masterpiece overcame numerous challenges, including treacherous weather conditions and complex design requirements. Spanning 1.7 miles, it remains one of the most photographed bridges in the world, showcasing the remarkable capabilities of civil engineering. Watch this short video to explore the fascinating journey of the Golden Gate Bridge construction! 🎥🏗️ Video source: https://lnkd.in/eTr_FW3N @thrandom_guy The respective owner(s) hold all rights and credits reserved #CivilEngineering #GoldenGateBridge #EngineeringMarvel #concretefunda #ConstructionHistory #BridgeEngineering #IconicStructures #niteshvtank #StructuralEngineering #Infrastructure #EngineeringExcellence #ConstructionInnovation #HistoricLandmarks #BuildingTheFuture #EngineeringAchievements #GreatDepression #BridgeConstruction #HumanIngenuity

Exploring the foundational strength beneath our feet, we delve into the world of 𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐁𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐭 — a key element that ensures the longevity, safety, and functionality of bridges worldwide. From its critical role in distributing loads to its ability to accommodate natural movements, bridge-bearing grout is more than just a construction material; it's the unsung hero of infrastructure resilience. In this insightful piece, we uncover its diverse applications, the advantages it brings to bridge construction and maintenance, and the various types engineered to meet specific project needs. Whether you're in civil engineering, construction management, or simply fascinated by the marvels of modern infrastructure, join us in appreciating the technological advances in bridge-bearing grout. #CivilEngineering #Infrastructure #ConstructionInnovation #EngineeringExcellence #SustainableConstruction #bridgeengineering #bridgeconstruction #bridgedesign #concretefunda #niteshvtank

How would you construct foundations through that?!! Our paper on Managing piling obstruction risk intelligently for reinvention of a UK brutalist building has now been published, in the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE) #forensicengineering journal, foundation re-use special edition. Whilst we did re-use foundations, the main success of this project was the innovative and collaborative approach between Arup KELLER McGee and Platform to manage the considerable underground obstruction risk for the additional piles. The foundation strategy was a key component of the building being able to re-use 80% of the existing fabric, and achieving SCORS rating A+ for structural embodied carbon. And the piling was completed on time, and to budget. The paper contains details of obstruction drilling trials and in production, as well as setting out design considerations and the contractual approach.

I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS! 🎄 ROADS: Connecting people and places. 🚗 Two names are associated with roads, Edgar Purnell Hooley and John McAdam, both civil engineers who have made our lives so much easier and paved the way for us to explore the world ….. literally. 🛣 JOHN McADAM was a Scottish Civil Engineer who developed the road construction method called MACADAMIZATION. This involved laying small stones in shallow, compact courses to create a hard and durable road service. This laid the foundation for modern road construction by emphasizing the importance of a well-graded and compact roadbed, providing better drainage and using durable materials. 🛣 EDGAR PURNELL HOOLEY was a British Civil Engineer who invented TARMACADAM, commonly known as tarmac. His was a happy accidental discovery when he noticed a smooth road surface was created by spilled tar. He patented the process of mixing crushed stone, sand and tar to create the durable and water-resistant road surface. So, while McAdams contribution focused on foundational principles of road construction, Hooley’s invention of tarmacadam significantly enhanced the durability and weather resistance of road surfaces. Both innovations played pivotal roles in the evolution of road construction methods. Civil Engineers changing the world, one project (or accident) at a time! #Civilisitix #civilengineering #roaddesign #knowledgesharing
