Comments always appreciated, as long as you keep it clean - I love to hear your feedback! xx
I went for a visit to Derby for their comedy festival and to spend the weekend with Gemma.
Saturday morning we went to Belper to the river gardens and the horseshoe weir, which is an incredible piece of civil engineering!
The gardens are lovely and tranquil. It was a great little alternative to our usual trip to Dovedale - which we called off because the weather wasn't great.
Had a lovely morning though!
Trenholm State Community College is currently in the process of architecturally re-branding their Patterson Campus. Trenholm State Community College’s Automotive Collision Repair Program was moved from the Trenholm Campus to the Patterson Campus, and in doing so, will utilize an existing 18,727sf metal building/warehouse which was conducive for the collision repair area. Additional square footage was added to the building to encompass two classrooms, a resource room, offices, tool storage, and a paint shop. The paint shop consists of two new pre-fabricated paint booths, mixing station, and prep area A new façade was developed to enhance the overall appearance of the building. This building is the first of many to feature the new architectural style.
Trenholm State Community College’s Administration and Financial Aid Building project included a new metal retrofit roof and the renovation of an existing building that houses administration offices, financial aid and other student amenities as part of there “Student Success” center to allow for additional classrooms. The existing spaces were updated with new finishes and associated energy efficient mechanical, electrical, and plumbing work. A new entrance and sitework were designed to give a good first impression to students and administrators entering campus.
Trenholm State Community College purchased state of the art prefabricated welding booths for their welding program. However, the buildings electrical system could not accommodate the loads for the booths. Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood was hired to prepare the architecture and engineering drawings to allow the program to use their new welding stations.
Building B & Building D were renovations that include interior and exterior work, re-roofing, structural, mechanical, electrical, civil, site work, exterior lighting, new streets, repairs and alterations to existing streets and parking lots, landscaping, and sidewalks.
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
Completed 1890
The structure has two segments: an East Channel bridge consisting of four 175-foot spans and three 240-foot spans crossing from Harrisburg to City Island; and a West Channel bridge, consisting of seven 175-foot spans crossing from City Island to Wormleysburg.
With 15 truss spans totaling 2,820 feet, the Walnut Street Bridge is the finest and largest surviving example of the standardized Phoenix wrought-iron truss bridges produced from 1884 to 1923.
Civil engineer Samuel Reeves founded the Phoenix Bridge Company. Wendell Bollman, inventor of the Bollman Truss, created the company's Phoenix column - a circular compression member assembled from flanged, rolled wrought-iron segments. The superstructures of these bridges were completely prefabricated of wrought iron in the company's plant at Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, shipped to the site, and erected by local semi-skilled labor.
The Phoenix Bridge Company prided itself on its ability to deliver written estimates based on the answers to five questions regarding span, width, and clearance, and to deliver a finished product to the site. As such, the company was major force in the explosive expansion of the transportation infrastructure in the United States.
Facts
- The structure has two segments, an East Channel bridge consisting of four 175-foot spans and three 240-foot spans crossing from Harrisburg to City Island, and a West Channel bridge, consisting of seven 175-foot spans crossing from City Island to Wormleysburg.
- The bridge was closed to vehicular traffic in 1972 as a result of floods during Hurricane Agnes, but remained open as a widely used pedestrian bridge and recreational amenity.
- On January 20, 1996 two spans of the West Channel bridge were lifted by an ice jam during a flood and carried downstream to lodge beneath the Market Street Bridge. A third span collapsed due to flood damage. The surviving spans still comprise the premier example of the Phoenix truss.
- The rapid growth of the iron bridge industry gave rise to an array of truss types and sharpened the analysis and design methods that the civil engineering profession used for the design of bridges in general, and truss bridges in particular.

The Falkirk Wheel is a rotating boat lift in Scotland, connecting the Forth and Clyde Canal with the Union Canal. The lift is named after the nearby town of Falkirk in central Scotland. It opened in 2002, reconnecting the two canals for the first time since the 1930s as part of the Millennium Link project.
The plan to regenerate central Scotland's canals and reconnect Glasgow with Edinburghwas led by British Waterways with support and funding from seven local authorities, the Scottish Enterprise Network, the European Regional Development Fund, and the Millennium Commission.
Planners decided early on to create a dramatic 21st-century landmark structure to reconnect the canals, instead of simply recreating the historic lock flight.
The wheel raises boats by 24 metres (79 ft), but the Union Canal is still 11 metres (36 ft) higher than the aqueduct which meets the wheel. Boats must also pass through a pair of locksbetween the top of the wheel and the Union Canal. The Falkirk Wheel is the only rotating boat lift of its kind in the world, and one of two working boat lifts in the United Kingdom, the other being the Anderton boat lift.
The two canals served by the wheel were previously connected by a series of 11 locks. With a 35-metre (115 ft) difference in height, it required 3,500 tonnes (3,400 long tons; 3,900 short tons) of water per run and took most of a day to pass through the flight.
By the 1930s these had fallen into disuse, and the locks were dismantled in 1933.
The Forth and Clyde Canal closed at the end of 1962, and by the mid-1970s the Union Canal was filled in at both ends, rendered impassable by culverts in two places and run in pipes under a housing estate.
The British Waterways Board (BWB) came into existence on 1 January 1963, the day the Forth and Clyde Canal was closed, with the objective of finding a broad strategy for the future of canals in the United Kingdom.
In 1976, the BWB decided after a meeting with local councils that the Forth and Clyde Canal, fragmented by various developments, was to have its remaining navigability preserved by building new bridges with sufficient headroom for boats and continuing to maintain the existing locks.
Restoration of sea-to-sea navigation was deemed too expensive at the time, but there were to be no further restrictions on its use.
MMA 1979 survey report documented 69 obstructions to navigation, and sought the opinions of twenty interested parties to present the Forth and Clyde Local (Subject) Plan in 1980.
The Lotteries Act 1993 resulted in the creation of the Millennium Commission to disseminate funds raised by the sale of lottery tickets for selected "good causes."
In 1996, when sufficient funds had been accumulated, the Commission invited applications to "do anything they thought desirable ... to support worthwhile causes which would mark the year 2000 and the start of the new millennium."The conditions were that the Commission would fund no more than half of the project, with the remaining balance being covered by project backers.
The BWB had made an earlier plan for the reopening of the canal link, which comprehensively covered the necessary work. In 1994, the BWB announced its plan to bid for funding, which was submitted in 1995 on behalf of the Millennium Link Partnership. The plans called for the canals to be opened to their original operating dimensions, with 3 metres (9.8 ft) of headroom above the water. The whole project had a budget of £78 million.
On Valentine's Day 1997, the Commission announced it would support the Link with £32 million of funding, 42% of the project cost.
The Wheel and its associated basin was priced at £17 million, more than a fifth of the total budget.Another £46 million had to be raised in the next two years before construction could commence, with contributions from BWB, seven local councils, Scottish Enterprise, and private donations being augmented by £8.6 million from the European Regional Development Fund.

Rye, New York
Constructed 1873-1876
It is a large, imposing structure (over a dozen rooms and spacious halls) dominated by a four-story octagonal tower at one corner and a second shorter square tower at another corner containing tanks for potable and fire-fighting water supply.
The Ward House, named for its builder William E. Ward, a mechanical engineer, is the first and oldest extant reinforced concrete building in the United States. Ward House is constructed entirely of Portland cement concrete reinforced with I-beams and rods of iron. Only the doors, window frames and trim are of wood. The design is an outstanding example of combined Gothic Revival and French Second Empire styles.
No attempt was made to disguise the reinforced concrete. Rather, the design stressed concrete's character as a building material. The structure demonstrated the practicability of reinforced concrete as a construction material for fireproof permanent structures. It also introduced the building industry to a new type of construction that was to proliferate throughout the United States, promoting the nation's development.

Ismailia, Egypt
Constructed between 1859 and 1869
The idea of creating a canal linking the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea is a very old one that dates back about 4000 years to the ancient Egyptians. They thought of linking the two seas by using the River Nile and its branches. It was this very old desire that led to the digging of the present Suez Canal.
The building of the Suez Canal was considered the greatest engineering feat of the nineteenth century. Historically, it the first man-made canal ever dug in service of world trade, and when it opened in 1869, the Canal was the longest man-made sea level canal in the world.
At its opening, the Canal was 164 km long, had a water depth of 7.5 m, and could handle a maximum tonnage of 5,000 D.W.T. Over the years it has been improved in order to cope with the development in the international fleet and to serve world trade. By the year 2001, the Canal was 190.25 km long, had a water depth of 22.5 m, and could handle a maximum tonnage of 210,000 D.W.T.
The modern Suez Canal is still one of the world's most heavily used shipping-routes and continues to play a critical role in international trade.

Appleton, Wisconsin
Completed 1882
Mr. H.J. Rogers is a man who ordinarily deals in heavy things, such as his paper and pulp mills. Within the past few days, however, he has changed his tactics, or rather ... he has gone in for light transactions. He has purchased the exclusive right for illuminating the towns of the Fox River Valley with the Edison electric lamp.
- The Appleton Post, July 27, 1882
By 1880, Thomas Edison had already demonstrated his system for generating electricity with low-resistance generators that delivered power to low-resistance incandescent bulbs. One of the first locations for the application of Edison's demonstration was Appleton, Wisconsin, located on the Fox River just 30 miles southwest of Green Bay. On September 30, 1882, the Vulcan Street Plant in the Appleton Pulp Mill became the first central-station plant in the world to generate electricity by combining the latest advances in hydro-power sites with one of Edison's new electrical generators.
The Edison Company had already begun to generate electricity with steam power 26 days earlier at its Pearl Street plant in New York City, but steam-generated electricity proved more expensive. Within four years of Appleton's pioneering effort, nearly 50 hydroelectric generating projects were announced throughout North America and, by the turn of the century, hydroelectric power accounted for more than 40 percent of the United States' total electricity supply.
