Increased automation in the design of industrial facilities | Consulting - Specifying Engineer
Learning Objectives Understand the risks associated with automating plant floors and other manufacturing processes. Identify the potential benefits of automation within industrial and manufacturing facilities. Automation insights Automation in industrial facilities is evolving to be more flexible, enabling production lines to handle a variety of products with minimal downtime and reprogramming.
How to meet code and standard requirements in industrial facility design | Consulting - Specifying Engineer
Learning Objectives The International Fire Code, International Building Code and NFPA standards are some of the most important codes in manufacturing facilities. Updating existing buildings to meet current fire and life safety requires a careful balance between compliance and cost-effectiveness. Manufacturing insights Future industrial projects must account for the growing use of IoT and design for scalability to adapt to rapidly evolving technologies and processes.
Design industrial and manufacturing facilities with sustainability
Sustainability insights Many building owners are requesting at least LEED Silver certifications for their manufacturing facilities. Changes in codes, specifically in California, make sustainability a top concern for designing industrial buildings.
Important considerations for power systems in manufacturing facilities | Consulting - Specifying Engineer
Experts discuss the unique challenges that industrial and manufacturing facilities present for design engineers in this roundtable Learning Objectives Designing electrical systems for industrial facilities requires careful consideration of fire pump size, arc flash ratings and early planning to ensure safety and cost accuracy. Industrial power distribution systems must be scalable, redundant and integrate with automation systems.
Ways automation and scalability are shaping industrial facility design | Consulting - Specifying Engineer
Learning Objectives Understand the impact of automation on the design of industrial and manufacturing facilities. Identify strategies to address scalability and future-proofing for plants. Learn how plants and industrial facilities are adapting to supply chain challenges. Manufacturing insights Future industrial projects must account for the growing use of IoT and design for scalability to adapt to rapidly evolving technologies and processes.
To magnify project success, focus on design-assist and collaboration | Consulting - Specifying Engineer
Design-assist insights The design and construction industries face pressure for greater value, quality and speed, yet processes often result in productivity lags and discord among teams. Collaborative models like design-assist offer promise by engaging subcontractors early, optimizing efficiency, cost and project outcomes. Design-assist involves early engagement of subcontractors, enhancing teamwork, communication and leveraging diverse skill sets to prevent costly delays and errors.
The source of obsession
Some would say it’s desire, passion, purpose or even love. Maybe once upon a time any of the above were indeed what sparked it. I see it differently in this modern world. Insecurity is the fuel now. A deep rooted fear that would go away if one would only have ‘that’ which they don’t. Or maybe, probably, this is just my own insecure self reflecting outward. Just because it wants to be heard. Maybe then it can rest knowing it no longer has to pretend it’s something it’s not.
Your body is a reflection of your mind
This is an unpopular thought for many to allow in their headspace. In the modern world there’s a lot of conflicting views on how our bodies ought to be, especially in the wake of ‘body positivity’. Personally I don’t agree with the aspect that leans towards morbid obesity. This isn’t healthy, and the only thing positive in that kind of body would be the result of a diabetes test. A harsh thing to say? Probably, however not untrue. I’ve been working within the realm of fitness for 20+ years.
Do you cling to your chains of fear?
Fear is a primal emotion. It’s built into our very being at the core. Mother Nature in her infinite wisdom gave us this gift so that we would be able to keep ourselves safe and propagate the the species, while ideally having the odd moment of enlightenment before we pass on. Unfortunately we act and base our choices, decisions and life largely based around avoiding shadows. Uncovering what lurks under the bed is something we’d rather not risk.
Self Sabotage, oh how often we create the outcomes we’re aiming to avoid.
There’s an saying. “One often meets their destiny on the path they take to avoid it.” Although not the original, the message behind it is very relevant. I’ve done this several times in my life and there’s a very high probability that many others have as well. First it’s key to understand that doesn’t make you a failure or whatever other self depreciating comment that floats to mind. It just makes you human. You can often discover what actually leads you to self sabotage. It’s fear.
Zero to Pentester
It’s rare for a young individual in high school to identify what they want to do for the rest of their life and then carry through with it without ever considering moving out of that field. Rewind to 2013—I’m in my 5th year of school, having passed my Scottish Highers and looking to University, alongside applying for some apprenticeships. I had my path laid out in my head, with an Arkwright scholarship with Heriot-Watt University.
Australia has a heritage conservation problem. Can farming and Aboriginal heritage protection co-exist?
Rio Tinto’s destruction of the 46,000 year old Juukan Gorge rock shelters has led to recommendations by the Parliamentary Inquiry on how Australia can better conserve Aboriginal heritage sites. Around the time the recommendations were made, Queensland’s Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act faced an important test when a pastoralist who cleared 500 hectares of bushland at Kingvale Station in Cape York was charged with failing to protect Aboriginal cultural heritage.

Benevolent Bannatyne
This article was published originally in Manitoba Pageant in autumn 1965. At the time of incorporation of the City of Winnipeg in 1873, Andrew Graham Ballenden Bannatyne was its leading citizen. He was possibly the wealthiest, probably the most influential, certainly the most highly esteemed man in the Red River community.
Winnipeg's 100-year war
This article was published originally in Manitoba Pageant by the Manitoba Historical Society in the winter of 1967. Since creation began man has had to wage war with insects. Of these the greatest foe was the mosquito, not only as a destroyer of rest and sleep, but because it was a deadly carrier of infection. Malaria, yellow fever, poliomyelitis, equine encephalitis or ‘staggers’ in horses, all are carried by mosquitoes.
Facebook and Google’s responses to the ACCC report are dangerous
If you were to read Facebook and Google’s responses to the ACCC’s Digital Platforms Inquiry Report, you’d wonder why policymakers across the globe are worried. Both platforms say there’s nothing to see here, and that, as Australian citizens and local media businesses, we have nothing to fear from the rise and rise of the most dominant companies the world has ever seen. And then there’s the kicker. If only we understood their businesses, we would know that everything is going to be okay.
What to do when you are over quota
You have been over quota before; it’s not a big deal, right? You used incentive days coming along to absorb your over-quota balance. Well, it doesn’t look like there will be any this fall, and perhaps not for a long time. So, what do you do now? If you do nothing, you will end up dumping milk, or even worse, shipping it for nothing other than incurring transportation costs. At least for the moment, you are not incurring any greater penalty. If you need less milk, how do you get there?
Large-Scale Academic Achievement Testing of Deaf and Hard-of-Hearing Students: Past, Present, and Future
The first large-scale, nationwide academic achievement testing program using Stanford Achievement Test (Stanford) for deaf and hard-of-hearing children in the United States started in 1969. Over the past three decades, the Stanford has served as a benchmark in the field of deaf education for assessing student academic achievement. However, the validity and reliability of using the Stanford for this special student population still require extensive scrutiny.
