What is the plan for the Francis Scott Key Bridge clean up? See below.

Following the Baltimore bridge collision/collapse investigation? Mark and Alex discuss - • Avoiding speculation • How to build an investigation team • Collecting evidence and securing the scene • How should upper-level management be involved • Investigation timelines • Building your investigation based on facts https://lnkd.in/gdNAF4hQ

Observing the investigation into the Baltimore Bridge collapse will be intriguing, especially regarding the valuable lessons and potential changes it may bring about in safety and infrastructure management. https://lnkd.in/gvvwxMnD #safetywise #icam #investigaiton

A great concept in the video. A few years ago, I would have been skeptical of the ability to bring this into a pilot stage anytime soon. With the developments in AI, drones technology and remote connectivity this could be a real game changer for UG programs in areas with existing UG facility conflicts very soon. My question to the utilities- Would you trust this innovation to run over, under or parallel to a critical line with no potholes? As innovation changes the policies of the utilities will have to be ready to not only adapt to the new MOI, also the damage prevention policies.

Keep in mind that the schedule critical path for the Key Bridge salvage will run through the crane hook. It helps that the tidal swing appears to be 18” or so and the currents are in fractional kts.

The decision of moving the anchor is on you. But the sails and rudders is subjected to the wind of your position and location.

Always on the look out for good examples of how standards drive efficiency and improvement. I was struck by this section from 1931 re: electrification of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Standard pole spacing, top of mind for everyone I am sure, allowed PRR to order fewer types of poles, thus enabling greater pole standardization (from 150 to 15), and catenary hanger lengths (I will need to look this up to understand better). Any other good examples out there?

In this Thierry Sicard Tutorial #32, we will review the international unit system, where the Coulomb became the electric charge unit to replace the Franklin. We will also discuss about the 1/r or 1/r square in the Coulomb formula, then we will do an analogy between Coulomb and Newton laws.

The Buncefield explosion occurred at one of Europe’s largest fuel storage facilities on December 11th, 2005. A fire at an underground storage tank containing aviation fuel caused the explosion. The resulting blast destroyed the oil depot in Hertfordshire, England, causing millions of pounds worth of damage and injuring dozens of people. The Buncefield explosion was a devastating event that could have been prevented. The incident serves as a stark reminder that stringent attention to safety regulations and protocol can avert incidents like this.
