A well-designed office can be a huge draw for top talent. It's not just about having a cool space to work in, but also about creating an environment that is conducive to productivity and creativity.  Additionally, offices can be optimized for productivity by a combination of engineering solutions such as sound-dampening walls, installing and using the right type of lighting, ventilation, and furniture. Here are seven modern office design concepts that are sure to attract and retain the best employees.

Mechanical engineering is one of the most diverse and oldest engineering disciplines. Every day, engineers get to enjoy variety in their day with design, production, and operation while drawing upon their knowledge in mathematics, engineering, physics, and more. 

Mechanical engineering students study the forces and thermal environment encountered by a product and its parts so they can come up with the best designs and manufacturing processes of a product. Most importantly, an in-depth understanding of objects and systems in motion are required, which makes mechanical engineering a broad and diverse discipline of engineering. While it can be difficult in the current climate to move to a new city or country in order to pursue your studies, many universities, including some of those on our list, offer distance-learning online degrees. You don’t have to leave wherever you're holed up and, most importantly, you can stay safe!

Electrical devices often produce sparks and heat through normal operation, which can pose a risk in hazardous environments. To mitigate this, techniques such as intrinsic safety are implemented to prevent these devices from becoming a source of ignition.  This article will clarify the concept of intrinsic safety, providing a clear definition and comparing it with alternative safety measures like flameproofing, to give a comprehensive understanding of how safety is maintained in potentially dangerous settings.

Chemical engineers are in demand these days and are essential to some of the most innovative projects. A degree in chemical engineering can open up doors across diverse industries, from designing clean energy solutions and developing medical treatments to creating materials for infrastructure improvement or manufacturing products. In this post, we'll look at some of the top career options available after graduating with a chemical engineering degree, highlighting how each role contributes to society and reveals unique opportunities for personal growth.

The modern world is a product of human endeavour, our species’ ability to envisage, design, and to construct. Engineers have always been at the forefront of this process, and today, more than any other time in history, we are living in a world of outstanding innovators. These figures have provided humanity with some invaluable advancements, and are now beacons of success, inspiring the minds of tomorrow. Let’s take a look at some of the biggest names.

The world of engineering is at the gates of a technological revolution that will very much change our lives in every way, from our work and education, to our entertainment and relationships.

The COVID-19 crisis has hit hard enough and continues to affect the global container shipping market. The current economic situation does not give much hope for a short-term recovery of this market. Demand for container shipments has fallen sharply, especially as China closed much of its plants in February 2020. The volume of production or cargo to be exported to other countries plummeted. The situation was exacerbated by a number of restrictions and requirements in almost every industry and in the world's ports.

3D volumetric construction is one of the most modern building construction techniques in civil engineering today. It is a form of off-site construction in which units are manufactured in a factory and then transported to site for assembly. The method of constructing within a factory setting ensures that the necessary building materials are brought in just in time and the modules can be constructed irrespective of the weather outside.  The products can be transported to site in various states of finish (modules, basic structural blocks or semi finished) ready for assembly in-situ. The basic idea is that as much of the building is constructed off site (in a factory assembly line) and only brought to site for completion.

Flammable gases, including natural gases like methane, pure substances such as hydrogen, and vapors from volatile liquids like acetone, require careful handling. Understanding their working limits is crucial for safety. Always consult Safety Data Sheets for information on risks associated with these substances. This article covers the properties of various flammable gases: Ammonia, Acetylene, Butane, Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen, Methane, Propane, Ethane, Ethylene, Silane, and Chlorine Trifluoride.  

Whether it’s Christmas or an upcoming birthday, gifts are a fantastic way to show another person you care.
