Steel/precast concrete system helps beat the elements in Edmonton Alta.
An eight-storey, 178000-square-foot Courtyard Marriott at the Edmonton International Airport is using an unusual steel/precast concrete system during construction. Winter can be a bear in Canada. Just ask any builder. When outdoor temperatures plummet
The UN's inability to calm regional tensions brings the G-20 to the fore, with the economic group eyeing to douse political fires instead of dealing with the meltdown. A club of the world's top 20 economies have shifted their attention to political
Researchers said that while they'd assumed riskier young drivers have more accidents, the new study provides more concrete data to show that's likely the case. "In some ways, it's not a huge surprise what they found," said Jean Shope, a researcher from
How long roughly should the grip on my basketball last on a concrete court before going slippery?
Q: I just bought a basketball and I was wondering about how long the hold would last if I play, for example 15 hours per week on concrete? I do not want to buy a new basketball after just a couple of months because I want my basketball to get a good grip and not be slippery?
seriously what kind of basketball you, why did not you include this?
Depends on the ball. The ball normally would outside. Or just the normal ball. I had my ball that is used for the outside for more than 6 months with 10 hours per week use.

Ivy League limits hitting in practices to reduce concussions
21.07.11
The Ivy League announced Wednesday that in an effort to minimize head injuries among its football players, it will greatly reduce the number of full-contact practices allowed teams can take.
Changes to implement this season, going well beyond the rules of the NCAA and are considered more stringent than any other conference. The league will also review the rules for male and female hockey, lacrosse and football to determine if there are ways to reduce the blows to the head and concussions in sports.

Upfront Characterization of Nuclear Reactor Concrete Bioshields ...
by ksandrik
® Is a unique and patented decommissioning and radwaste management sampling and characterization technology used to attain rapid representative sampling and characterization of sub-surface matrices at nuclear facilities. By utilizing this new and efficient profiling approach, activity and volume reduction of various segregated waste streams is achieved, which leads to a basis for controlled disposal and release of concrete, soil and rock at reduced cost, time and risk.
The TruPro ® technology provides a smart solution and approach to concrete or bulk material sampling and analysis. There is a need to profile materials for radioactive and non-radioactive contaminants of concern at depth within the waste material matrix in near real-time (in-situ) in order to support the evaluation of waste levels, and to allow for immediate response to contamination and increased worker safety awareness. This enhances project manager decision-making capabilities and decommissioning strategy.
