ASPECT Structural Engineers’ Post

"Yeah, WTF did happen to WOODSHIRES??" 🤔 Join Stu, as he delves into the twists and turns WOODSHIRES has navigated through the years. Our path took us from industry challenges to the exciting creation of STAMP and PTECT. Embracing change, we've transformed these challenges into groundbreaking solutions. Check out our video below where I break down our transformation and reveal how we're preparing for a future full of promise and innovation. Stay connected, watch our progress, and be part of our future! #WOODSHIRES #BusinessInnovation #PTECT #STAMP

We can change behaviour, we can change infrastructure, or we adjust wheels to the terrain. 💡#Bionic can help to implement some @Just Streets solutions from the nature.

Henry Ford famously stated, "Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently." Here's a fun fact about me: I'm an avid roller coaster enthusiast. The exhilaration of speed, towering heights, and the challenge of pushing human ingenuity to its limits for the sheer joy of it has always captivated me. Consider the Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point Amusement Park, which, when it debuted in 2003, held the title of the world's tallest and fastest roller coaster. It was groundbreaking, introducing an innovative hydraulic launch system. However, as time passed, it became notorious for its maintenance challenges and was even deemed a hazard to guests, ultimately costing the park more than it was worth. Fast forward to 2024, and it has been transformed into the world’s tallest and fastest triple-launch coaster. You might be wondering why I'm sharing this. The point is that in our rapidly evolving digital era, continuous innovation is imperative. We need to adapt and change in response to shifts in economics, scientific discoveries, and new exploratory frontiers, among other factors. These changes impact the speed and manner in which we must innovate or reinvent ourselves and our methods. So, when your current workflows begin to hinder your profitability, affect your output, or pose risks to you or your clients, it's crucial to reflect and ask, "How can we improve?" Don't wait for your clients to demand change; proactively seek opportunities to add value and stay ahead of the curve. Aim to be the outlier. #innovation #digitaldelivery #digitaltransformation #AEC (video credit https://www.cleveland.com/)

In the world of engineering and design, there's a delicate balance between innovation and simplicity. To commemorate 1 April, often associated with wit and wisdom, we're reminded of Douglas Adams' timeless insight: "A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." WJ's mission isn't just about creating foolproof solutions; it's about anticipating challenges, embracing creativity, and crafting robust systems that withstand the test of time. Join us in celebrating the ingenuity of both creators and critics alike. Let's continue pushing the boundaries of what's possible, fueled by the determination to outsmart even the most ingenious of fools. #EngineeringExcellence #Innovation #AprilFoolsWisdom

What’s your favourite part about raft building? Is it the initial strategy session where you plan out the perfect raft? Pulling in the brain power to ensure no one falls in the water? 👀 Or is it the building stage? Where the plan comes together to realised the all-perfect raft! Or is it the last stage where reality meets imagination? 😂 #oeg #outdooreducation #theoutdooreducationgroup

“You don’t set out to build a wall. You say you are going to lay this brick as perfectly as a brick can be laid. If you do this every day, soon you’ll have a wall. Psychologically, the advantage that gives me over a lot of people is that it is difficult to take the first step when you look at how huge the task is, but to me the task is always just one brick.” What you do today will define your outcomes tomorrow. What you don’t do today will also define tomorrow. #InSearchofAlpha
