Salesforce Tower Chicago by Pelli Clarke & Partners Pelli Clarke & Partners?has completed the 57-storey Salesforce Tower along the Chicago River. This concrete core and steel structure is 852-foot-tall (259 metres) with 1.2 million-square-foot of office space. It joins two residential towers and 2.3 acres of public park space across the 4-acre Wolf Point development. The curtain walls combine glass and metal to balance a feeling of solidity and transparency. Salesforce Tower Chicago is the first building in Chicago to require and measure Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) to quantify embodied carbon emissions of concrete, steel and other various construction materials. This led to a 27% reduction in the production of concrete used and a 9% reduction in steel used resulting in a 19% overall reduction in carbon emissions for steel and concrete in comparison to the industry average.

Projects seen from the perspective of an engineer and architect differ a lot. So, how do they work together????? Both professionals have their responsibility in the project. Architects provide the creative vision and ensure the design meets aesthetic and functional goals. At the same time, engineers bring this vision to life by addressing technical, structural, and practical aspects to ensure the project is safe, feasible, and cost-effective. Architect's inspiration lies in natural light, flow, and the relationship between interior and exterior spaces. Engineers prioritize materials, methods, and technologies, and integrate essential systems like electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and structural frameworks, ensuring these systems are efficient and reliable. At the end of the day, both roles are essential for a successful result. Do you agree?

ATTENTION TO TINY DETAILS IS PARAMOUNT TO EXCELLENT PROJECT DELIVERY In building construction, attention to tiny details is paramount for producing high-quality work. Every structure, from modest homes to towering skyscrapers, relies on the meticulous execution of countless small details to ensure safety, functionality, and aesthetic appeal. Overlooking these details can lead to significant problems, ranging from minor inconveniences to catastrophic failures. Take, for instance, structural engineering. Precise calculations and exact material specifications are essential. The weight load distribution, the strength of materials, and the integrity of joints and connections must all be meticulously planned and executed. Even minor deviations from the design can compromise the stability of the entire structure. Similarly, the installation of electrical systems requires meticulous attention. Ensuring that every wire is correctly connected, every junction box properly installed, and every circuit adequately protected is crucial. A single loose connection or improperly grounded wire can cause electrical failures or even fires, endangering lives and property. Successful individuals in any field, including construction, understand that excellence is achieved by sweating the small stuff. This principle is evident in the practices of renowned architects and builders who ensure that every aspect of their work meets the highest standards. As a construction engineer, you must be known for your obsession with detail, from the overall design down to the selection of materials and the arrangement of finishes. Your buildings must remain celebrated for your innovation and attention to detail. The quality of construction work hinges on the meticulous attention to countless small details. This focus on the minutiae ensures that the final product is not only functional and safe but also aesthetically pleasing. The world's most successful structural engineers, construction engineers, builders and architects exemplify this principle, demonstrating that excellence is indeed the culmination of attending to the tiniest of details. Strive to be like them! #repost #WOli #constructionengineers
