Pacific Quay is an area south of the River Clyde in Glasgow, Scotland. It is located at the former Plantation Quay and Princes' Dock Basin. The Princes' Dock Basin was the largest on the River Clyde when it was opened by the Clyde Navigation Trust in 1900. It ceased to be used as a commercial dock by the Clyde Port Authority in the 1970s as the volume of Shipping using the Upper Clyde declined with the onset of Containerization. The site was later used for the Glasgow Garden Festival in 1988. The former electric generating station and pumping house, "Four Winds" which was used to pump water between the rotundas and generate power for the electric cranes still stands and is now home to a consultant engineers and radio station. Today Pacific Quay includes:

This building is located in MinatoMirai 21 and is known for all of the functions it hosts.
History:
In the late 19th century, the Yokohama city government worked on constructing new harbour facilities, and the first reclamation work was begun in 1899. The work, completed in 1905, was followed by expansion work which ended a year later. Planned by a Japanese architect and a government official, Yorinaka Tsumaki, the current Building No. 2 was constructed in 1911, and the current Building No. 1 was erected in 1913. Both were to be used as customs houses.
When the 1923 Great Kantō earthquake struck Yokohama, the red brick buildings were damaged, but suffered less than other buildings due to their reinforced structure with iron implanted between the bricks. Repair work continued until 1930, and after World War II, the buildings were requisitioned by the American occupation troops between 1945 and 1956. After the buildings were returned to Japan, their use decreased with the advent of containerization, and the buildings ended their role as customs houses in 1989.
In 1992, Yokohama city acquired jurisdiction over the buildings, and restoration work was carried out from 1994 to 1999. This work, in which the roof and structure of the buildings were strengthened, was conducted by Takenaka Corporation, a Japanese architectural company. After the inside of the buildings was renovated, they were opened as the Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse on April 12, 2002.

Suds
SUDS, or Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems are a sequence of water management practices and facilities designed to drain surface water in a manner that will provide a more sustainable approach than what has been the conventional practice of routing run-off through a pipe to a watercourse.
National standards will come into force in 2011 to ensure that new developments and redevelopments include sustainable drainage that reduces flood damage and improves water quality.
Sustainable use of land and natural resources is as imperative for biological diversity in the natural world as it is for human welfare.
Urban drainage is moving away from the conventional thinking of designing for flooding to balancing the impact of urban drainage on flood control, quality management and amenity.
Planting in and around the SUDS system
Most common aquatics are rampant native species, but they can be grown in such a way to prevent them taking over. If they are containerized in aquatic permanent planting beds. The Lincoln common SUDS system will have permanent marginal planting beds edging the system made of brick or walling stones. The structure will be out of view under the water line.
A mixed aquatic planting scheme will help in the establishment of a biological balance that contributes to clear water and provides a home for the myriad beneficial submerged organisms on which a natural food chain or eco-system depends. This scheme will include species from the following groups:
•Submerged plants – (Oxygenators) good for suppressing algae and provides a living filtration system.( Myriophyllum aquaticum) or Diamond milfoil, no harm in letting this sprawl, but essential to thin in autumn.
•Floating plants– Useful in establishment of a newly constructed sytem. The floaters help contribute to clear water. (Stratiotes hydrocharitaceae) a hardy species with sword like leaves
•Deep Water plants – Grown not only for their flowers but also the valuable shade that is cast by their leaves in summer, which help keep water clear. (Aponogeton distachyos) Water hawthorn
•Marginals –Fringe of the water garden is home to the marginals, they play a vital part in the aesthetic impact of the pool. (carex elata ‘Aurea’) Bowles’ golden sedge.
For initial planting for a good establishment it is advised to transfer plants from the Victorian Pond which are used to the local conditions. After establishment a wider variety of species can be introduced.
The first couple of weeks of establishing the SUDS system, the water will appear cloudy. This is normal and the only option is patience, wait for the oxygenators to do their job. This should take 3-4 weeks.

If I've got the geotag right (not guaranteed, but I think so), there is an airstrip here, so this is probably both a land and an air transshipment point where containerized shipping into Aqaba can be broken up and routed to its proper destination, and vice versa.
Jordan was a geological wonderland. Next shot (www.flickr.com/photos/anitagould/4242808657/) shows a closeup of some of the mountains in this formation.
Aha! From www.andrewsi.freeserve.co.uk/jordan-geology.htm :
"Jordan's oldest rocks (of Precambrian age, 570 million years old) form the mountains behind Aqaba. They mainly consist of granites, which are criss-crossed with sheets of intruded igneous rock, known as dykes. At the time of dyke formation, the granitic rocks were still deep below the surface. The rocks were affected by great tensional stresses, and the cracks which this created where subsequently filled by molten rock. Today, the dykes form the characteristic dark stripes across the hillsides.
Intense fluvial erosion of the Aqaba granites has produced extensive alluvial fans which fill the wadis and mantle the lower hill slopes. With the availability of water supplies at depth beneath these fans, acacia savannah woodland has developed in many places."
Pacific Quay is an area south of the River Clyde in Glasgow, Scotland. It is located at the former Plantation Quay and Princes' Dock Basin. The Princes' Dock Basin was the largest on the River Clyde when it was opened by the Clyde Navigation Trust in 1900. It ceased to be used as a commercial dock by the Clyde Port Authority in the 1970s as the volume of Shipping using the Upper Clyde declined with the onset of Containerization. The site was later used for the Glasgow Garden Festival in 1988. The former electric generating station and pumping house, "Four Winds" which was used to pump water between the rotundas and generate power for the electric cranes still stands and is now home to a consultant engineers and radio station. Today Pacific Quay includes:

I have three of these enormous concrete urns. They were formerly positioned atop my next door neighbor's five foot high retaining wall. She or her husband were never green thumbs, over the years the only thing that grew out of the urns were weeds. The neoclassical design didn't mesh with modern landscaping she'd done, she was going to have them taken away. Large pots are fairly expensive, so I told her I'd figure out how to get them down from the wall, if I could have them. They each weigh a couple hundred pounds. My oldest was eleven or twelve at the time, he and I used an ingenious system of ramps with old wood to alternately slide and lever them down into our yard. The only way they could be moved on the ground was by rolling them on their sides.
They've been sitting empty in my backyard ever since.
One summer, we traveled during a terrifically scorching hot month of August in Seattle. When we got home, we found most of our longtime containerized plants desiccated and keeled over (including a twenty year old filbert). It was awful. Since then, I've been reluctant to do any large container gardening.

SPMT: Self-propelled modular transporter, also known as a self-propelled modular trailer, which is mainly used for the transportation of heavy, huge, and special-shaped structures. The advantages of self propelled modular transporter are flexible use, convenient loading and unloading, and the load capacity can reach more than 50,000 tons under the condition of modules mechanical assembly or free combination. The self propelled transporter is widely used in manufacturing, petroleum, chemical industry, offshore engineering, bridge construction, and other engineering fields.
For mega engineering construction, the way of moving prefabricated segments and then transporting them to the site for general assembly is often adopted to effectively shorten the construction period and reduce the construction cost; If the modules are over disassembled, it is conducive to transportation and lifting, but not convenient to general assembly as well as commissioning. If the modular transporters are disassembled as little as possible, the single modules will be very huge but pose challenges on transportation and lifting. SPMT came into being under this demand.
WHAT AREAS CAN SELF PROPELLED TRANSPORTER TRAILER BE APPLIED FOR
Self-propelled modular transporter (SPMT) is mainly used for shipbuilding, petroleum, chemical industry, steel, and other engineering construction and equipment production. It has been used for medium, mega or heavy cargo transportation. According to different actual working conditions, different modules can be selected and combined into transport vehicles of various tonnage and forms to meet the needs of various working conditions. The modules can drive under the load bracket, lift the load with its jacking system, transfer it to any designated place and put down the load. This process does not require a crane or any other lifting equipment. The driving, lifting, and steering of the SPMT adopt the control and transmission form of "machine electric hydraulic" integration. The SPMT trailer is equipped with wireless remote control and a wireless emergency remote control, which has the same efficiency when driving forward or backward. Two or more modules can be combined and spliced, and one person can fully control the SPMT to complete different transportation tasks.
The product of SPMT manufacturers comply with relevant national standards and specifications with high rigidity, high seismic resistance, and high precision; Excellent cold and thermal stability; The electric control system has the properties of shockproof, antimagnetic, waterproof and high-temperature resistance, and can reliably complete the mobile transportation of hull sections or other heavy goods in ship construction and other engineering construction. The utility self propelled modular transporter for sale has the advantages of simple operation, convenient maintenance, and a beautiful appearance. The safety protection devices are complete and reliable, with perfect automatic protection and alarm functions.
HOW DOES SELF PROPELLED MODULAR TRANSPORTER WORK?
The first SPMT was born in 1983, designed and manufactured by Scheuerle, and delivered to Mammoet the next year. 30 years of running has not made them old. Now, these first SPMTs are still in service with Mammoet.
SPMT has made great progress since its birth. At present, the world's famous SPMT brands include Scheuerle (Germany), kamag (Germany), Nicolas (France), Goldhofer (Germany), COMETTO (Italy), etc., mostly European brands (the first three belong to TII group); In recent years, Rui trailer has developed rapidly in this field which has greatly promoted the localization process of heavy cargo transportation in China.
As a pioneer, Scheuerle's SPMT has spread all over the world, with total usage of more than 5500 axes. It is widely used in shipbuilding, petrochemical, nuclear power, aerospace, road and bridge engineering, and other fields. Now it has developed to the fourth generation. Due to the adoption of welding robot technology, the load capacity of SPMT per axle has increased from 40 t of the third generation to 48 T, and the control technology has reached a new level.
SPMT Composition
SPMT Module
SPMT modules have 2, 3, 4, and 6 axles specifications, among which 4 and 6 axles modules are the most common. The size design of SPMT is very particular. The module is 2.43 m wide, 5.6 m long (4-axle module), and 8.4 m long (6-axle module). It can be transported in standard 20 'and 40' containers. Some super mega engineering companies have a global business, but they may not have local branches, so it is necessary to transport the heavy equipment required for the project to the local. The transnational transfer of heavy equipment is generally a combination of ocean transportation and land transportation (highway and railway). The containerization of equipment can bring great convenience and save a lot of transportation costs, So as to achieve global rapid scheduling deployment, which was one of the original design objectives of SPMT.
Each axle line is composed of two pendulum axles. Each pendulum axle is equipped with two wheels (air-filled tire or solid tire can be selected). The center of the two wheels can swing at a certain angle along the center in the vertical direction, which can make the module compensate for the height of the ground in the transverse direction.
