Ulster University is a multi-campus public university located in Northern Ireland. It is often referred to informally and unofficially as Ulster, or by the abbreviation UU. It is the largest university in Northern Ireland and the second-largest university on the island of Ireland.
The Belfast campus is situated in the artistic and cultural centre of the city. Although traditionally associated with Art and home to the university's School of Art, originally inaugurated as the Belfast School of Art and Design in 1849, the campus has a range of subjects including architecture, hospitality, event management, photography and digital animation. The award-winning Law Clinic is based at the Belfast campus, offering free legal advice on social security and employment law.
Ulster University has been expanding and developing the Belfast campus since 2009 as part of one of Northern Ireland's largest-ever urban developments, and nearly 15,000 students and staff will soon be based in the city centre. The first phase of this development opened in 2015 and completion of the project is due in 2019.

High Royds Village, Menston, West Yorkshire. David Wilson Homes development. This site - part of Wilson Bowden plc - had a comprehensive site waste management policy document. It was the only site to have a written document for distribution. I have a copy and am impressed in particular by their duty of care section.
"You cannot contract the Duty of Care for your waste away to someone else. When your waste is in someone else's hands, your DoC is shared BUT as the producer of the waste you always have a responsibility. Well constructed, unambiguous contracts with people who handle your waste are therefore vital and will allow you to act immediately to put matters right should you discover or suspecct any breach of your own or your contractor's DoC." The section goes on. but this statement is one that should be adopted by every household, not just housing developers.
The new building works at the old Clinic. Though I'd do a collage rather than putting up individual photo. Rather boring otherwise I thought.
Colorado, USA - September 15, 2020: Construction workers and crew work in the rubble at the top of Pikes Peak Colorado. A new visitor center is under construction
There is a new building boom underway throughout the city of Dublin and it feels very different [maybe not in a good way] to the one that crashed the Irish economy back in 2008.
I had arranged to meet a friend for lunch at a restaurant on Dawson Street but he got delayed because he did not recognise Dawson Street or Molesworth Street and got a bit confused about his location. The combination of three large construction sites and the Luas tram system extension has turned the whole are is a huge building site.
I have noticed a trend in that new buildings are now TEN or ONE [rather than 10 or 1 ] and usually they use even numbers.

Last year construction group BAM has purchased six new tower cranes in a €3 million deal that offers further evidence of a recovering economy.
The deal means that BAM now owns thirty tower cranes in total. [Someone told me that they are known as High Lift Cranes but I think that I am correct and that high lift cranes are different]
Late in 2015 demolition a very dated office block at the corner of Molesworth Street and Dawson street began. It is claimed that the replacement, to be known as ONE Molesworth Street will be very different to what was the Royal And Sun Alliance office block. The new building is due to be completed later this year.
“Located on a commanding corner of Molesworth Street and Dawson Street, 40 Molesworth Street comprises 30,000 sq.ft. of highly specified Grade A office space and a high profile retail unit. Offering flexible, tenant friendly floor plates and the highest modern design standards to provide the ultimate occupier experience in a superb business location.
The property is undergoing major refurbishment and is targeting a LEED Gold Standard. External finish will feature an exquisite Petersen brick facade and design incorporates stunning Penthouse and third floor balconies, changing and shower facilities and bicycle parking. Ready for occupation in Spring 2017.”
TEN Molesworth Street “Designed to reflect its prestigious environment and the rich heritage of the surrounding area, this prominent building is located on the corner of Molesworth Street and South Frederick Street and comprises of 115,000 sq ft of modern Grade A office space set over seven floors with generous roof terraces and private gardens.”

The parking lot at the defunct Oak Lawn K Mart and Chuckie Cheese is being torn up for a new, yet un-named restaurant.
I drive past this every night on my way home from work, and I've been really curious to find out what it is. It's a pretty big constuction on a massive site at the corner of Beech Street and Prescot Road in Kensington.
It turns out that it's the rather laughably titled "Kensington Neighbourhood Centre" and it started construction about six weeks ago.
Why is the title laughable? Well, like most Liverpool projects it started out as something potentially useful. This was to be a combination of shops and flats with a housing association headquarters, some PCT (health service) facilities, a council 'one stop shop' and a Fire Station.
Again as with seemingly all things related to Kensington Regeneration it hit delays, then more delays, then more delays, then turned from something useful into something not useful. The PCT went elsewhere because of the delays. The housing association went elsewhere because of the delays. The Council probably vired funding elsewhere. And something that showed promise now doesn't. The huge site opposite this one could have been something amazing - we got a McDonalds and a Lidl. This site could have been something amazing. It's going to be an Iceland and some flats.
Just like everything else that comes out of the self serving White Elephant of the 'Job Bank' on Tunnel Road, it's failed to deliver for the people of Kensington. Call me cynical, but I'm acutely aware that these regeneration companies can only work themselves out of a job if they succeed. That's not much of an incentive to do well.
Maybe I'm wrong and it will be lovely. I'm not holding my breath.
It's a new building near (or even belonging to) one of the Railway stations of Vienna.
I found the scaffolding impressive enough to pick the camera out of my backpack for it. :)

Following the demolition of the old Weston carpet factory on Enghavevej/Chr. X's Vej/Engtoften, the clean-up process is well underway. This MAN TGM takes part in the process, viewed from Chr. X's Vej towards Engtoften. The red gabled house in the back is Enghavevej 26, which itself fell for the bulldozers almost exactly 1 year later... a project the MAN was unable to take part in, having been retired in march 2016.
Retirement age for trucks: many used trucks are offered for sale on international markets. If sold to a foreign buyer, this will not be listed in the danish motor registry, so a "retired" truck may or may not have been exported. In other words, the "retirement age" only shows the age, at which the truck stopped running on danish license plates.

Griffin’s Hydraulic Driven Submersible Pumps are available in trash, axial flow and materials handling models. The pumps range from 4” to 24” with a variety of impeller designs. These pumps are designed for handling high volumes of water up to 20,000 gpm and head conditions up to 140 ft. The impellers can handle solids up to 3”. Some models may also be used for high pressure applications.
The project shown was called the “Alameda Corridor” and was for the construction of a railway connecting the Port of Los Angeles to downtown Los Angeles. Construction of this railway allowed for a direct railway into Los Angeles without interrupting the normal street traffic by eliminating the need for Train Crossing Signals and Guards.
The majority of the railway was below street grade, most of which required dewatering as the high ground water table in the area would not allow the construction to be achieved.
Griffin was contacted by Tutor-Saliba (General Contractor) to provide the dewatering necessary to construct the project.
Griffin installed a multitude of deepwells along the alignment of the proposed railway to allow for construction. The discharge from the wells was pumped via large diameter High Density Polyethylene Pipe (HDPE) to a below grade mixing vault (shown in picture), where a neutralizing agent was introduced to the ground water as the quality of the groundwater was not allowed to discharge to the designated receiving area without this treatment.
