To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nWorldwide concrete is the most widely consumed civil construction material regarding its versatility\, strength\, and durability\, among other benefits. Concrete is used in almost every type of construction\, including homes\, buildings\, roads\, bridges\, airports\, and tunnels. However\, the environmental impacts of cement (and thus concrete) production are significant\, considering a mean value of 0.948 kg CO2/kg Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) for the life cycle CO2 footprint of OPC. According to The Global CO2 Initiative (2016) research revealed that significant progress in CO2U has been made in the past five years (2011-16)\, with many technologies shown to be scalable. Momentum is favorable for four major markets – building materials\, chemical intermediates\, fuels and polymers. \nTo become more sustainable\, the concrete industry also uses industrial waste by-products such as fly ash (from coal combustion) and blast furnace slag (from iron manufacture) to constitute a portion of the cement used in producing concrete. Additionally\, the incorporation of solid wastes\, such as construction & demolition and tyre rubber to replace natural aggregate are eco-friendly alternatives. \nGreen concrete is defined as concrete that uses waste material as at least one of its components\, requires less amount of energy for manufacture and\, compared to conventional concrete\, produces less carbon dioxide. However\, the climate benefit of a CO2U (carbon dioxide utilization) product depends not only on how much CO2 the product contains but also the amount of CO2 emitted in making the product. \nThe construction engineering industry is a leader in innovating sustainable practice to address the UN sustainable development goal\, and this webinar discusses the technologies that can support engineers\, architects\, and construction professionals seeking efficient\, advanced solutions that conserve non-renewable resources and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Dr. Ana Evangelista has been investigating the properties of recycled concrete and eco-friendly building materials. She will present the potential alternatives to design a durable and eco-friendly concrete mix. \n3 key takeaways from this webinar: \n\nOverview of Construction Engineering sector and UN sustainable development goals (SDG)\nAlternatives to mitigate CO2 emissions in the manufacturing process of concrete\nA recent trend in research and commercial interests in carbon capture concrete is that of the CO2 consumed during the curing and mixing of concrete\n\nPresenter: Dr. Ana Evangelista\, EIT Lecturer \n\nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\n\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nWhat does ‘energy transition’ mean? As with any definition\, there are many we could use. One proposed here is this\, “Energy Transition is the specific change/s from one state to another of energy systems. Energy systems have specific patterns of both energy supply and demand quantities and qualities; this is their given state”. Quite a definition! If we look at history there have been three energy transitions so far: (1) wood to coal\, (2) coal to oil\, (3) coal and oil to natural gas. The Fourth Energy Transition should see renewable sources of energy replace all fossil fuels. \nAccording to some authors\, these transitions take 50 to 75 years for the new energy resource (i.e.\, renewables) to have a large share in the global energy market. If we think about the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Reports we do not have 50 to 75 years. This webinar will look at past energy transitions and discuss how the current/upcoming energy transition might pan out; will we get to 100% electrification by 2050? \n3 key takeaways from this webinar: \n\nThere have been three energy transitions.\nThe need to reduce fossil fuel consumption very quickly is urgent.\nEvery global citizen/the whole planet will be affected by the energy transition.\n\nPresenter: Dr. Lucas Skoufa\, EIT Lecturer \n\nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\n\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nBuilding Information Modelling (BIM) is an innovative methodology that revolutionized how construction projects are conceived. BIM can be used throughout the entire building lifecycle\, from the initial phases of project design to the building demolition phase. Nevertheless\, several BIM application possibilities are still not widespread in the market. Many professionals worldwide are still limited to using BIM-based tools to generate virtual models for geometric representation and rendering. \nBIM is advantageous in centralizing all data in the same three-dimensional model\, allowing different analyses and simulations to be carried out. This will enable professionals to reduce costs\, detect design errors\, and track building timelines\, among other possibilities. Therefore\, this Webinar intends to discuss several advantages of using BIM to enhance building decision-making processes\, presenting different concepts that can be integrated with BIM. \n3 key takeaways from this webinar: \n\nThe BIM methodology is not tied to a specific computational application. In fact\, it is a working methodology and a new way of thinking about construction projects.\nBIM can improve the project decision-making process\, minimize project errors\, and improve communication between parties.\nUsing BIM integrated with other concepts can help create a smart and sustainable built environment.\n\nPresenter: Mrs. Karoline Figueiredo\, EIT Lecturer \n\nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\n\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nDE offers a range of transformational benefits across the full asset lifecycle of rail infrastructure projects\, through the use of digital technologies and optimized ways of working. DE techniques are now commonly applied on major rail infrastructure projects\, realizing immediate benefits such as improved design coordination\, faster project delivery\, and less project variations. That said\, many of the benefits of DE have often been short-lived\, hindered by inconsistent methodologies\, a lack of interoperable data\, and generally low digital maturity. Furthermore\, there has been little consideration for aligned digital processes over the full asset lifecycle\, resulting in limited reliability or re-use of project information beyond single phases of the lifecycle. \nMost importantly\, there have been no agreed DE standards or guidelines that define best practices across the ANZ rail industry. Rail agencies and asset owners have individually developed bespoke DE project requirements\, with varying levels of detail and specification. This has made it challenging for industry to interpret and respond to a growing number of diverse DE terms\, definitions\, conventions\, requirements\, and specifications. It is now universally recognized by both the public and private sectors that an ad-hoc and siloed approach is not sustainable. There is a need for consistency\, developed in partnership with the ANZ rail industry\, to define and agree on a common approach to DE for rail infrastructure projects. Standardization will enable digital transformation and unlock a step-change in productivity throughout the rail infrastructure sector. \n3 key takeaways: \n\nDigital Engineering\nBig data\nANZ rail industry\n\nPresenter: Dr. Daniel Faraji\, EIT Lecturer \n\nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\n\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nThe calibration of sensors is critical in the monitoring of many engineering processes. While some sensors come factory calibrated\, eventual drift in readings is unavoidable. Regular calibration is required if precision is to be ensured. Additionally\, by calibrating against more accurate equipment\, the accuracy of lesser equipment can be improved. \nTemperature sensors are an easy-to-understand example of calibration\, and why it is so important. This webinar contains actual data used during a doctoral study. \n3 key takeaways: \n\nCalibration is highly important.\nDon’t trust a reading without some background knowledge.\nIf possible\, verify readings.\n\nPresenter: Mr. Johann van den Bergh\, EIT Lecturer \n\nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \n\nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.\nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session.\n\nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nPlease join Dr. Lucas Skoufa\, EIT Lecturer and Specialist Turbine and Steam Engineer\, to gain a historical overview of the gas turbine engine\, main applications\, and future use. \nThe development of the gas turbine engine can be traced back over 100 years. For instance\, 1903 was the first use of a gas turbine for generating power. In 1941\, the first successful flight of the Whittle jet engine occurred. Since then\, the gas turbine has been the primary power plant for commercial and military aircraft. Other applications for gas turbines include power generation\, mechanical drive applications\, and propulsion plants for naval vessels. The gas turbine has advantages such as a high power output to weight ratio and short start-up time. On the other hand\, the gas turbine consumes a lot of air. \nIn recent times\, the issue of climate change and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions has impacted the operations of gas turbine power plants in Australian electricity markets. The use of natural gas as a fuel is being challenged\, and hydrogen has been purported as a fuel for gas turbines since its carbon dioxide emissions are virtually nil. Even in the aviation sector\, electric propulsion plants are being developed. This webinar will provide a historical overview of the gas turbine\, its main applications until now\, and provide a look at the current efforts to ensure the gas turbine remains a viable propulsion and power plant. \nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards. \nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session. \nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nPlease join Professor Akhtar Kalam\, EIT Academic Board Chairman\, to gain an insight into an Australian case study on converting overhead transmission lines to underground. \nThis webinar will present on various aspects of the 220 kilovolt (kV) transmission lines crossing the Waverley Park estate in Mulgrave\, Victoria. It will evaluate the feasibility of diverting the transmission lines underground. The developer of Waverley Park estate had originally intended to underground the transmission lines by means of a transition enclosure constructed at each end of the estate\, and approximately 530 meters of buried cable between the two locations. However\, the builder’s proposal was abandoned\, and the slightly realigned transmission lines were retained above ground. Included in the formal reasons for abandoning the company’s original underground proposal were visual amenity\, open space\, and financial cost concerns. \nThe presentation will identify an alternative\, preferred undergrounding solution compared to the original proposal advanced by the builder. Although broadly the same as the builder’s initially proposed concept\, the alternative solution is modeled on the 220 kV Brownhill Road substation located in Auckland\, New Zealand. From a public amenities’ perspective\, the Brownhill Road scenario is similar to that existing on the Waverley Park estate but is demonstrably superior in terms of visual amenity\, open space\, and financial cost. \nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards. \nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session. \nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nPlease join Dr. Ana Evangelista\, EIT Civil & Structural Engineering Course Coordinator and Lecturer\, to learn more about different methods and techniques used to evaluate concrete properties. \nConcrete is the most widely consumed civil construction material in terms of its versatility\, strength\, and durability among other benefits. As a result\, concrete is used in almost every type of construction\, including homes\, buildings\, roads\, bridges\, airports\, and tunnels. However\, over time concrete presents signs of deterioration as it exceeds its original design life. Consequently\, the existing infrastructure typically degrades over time whilst it is subjected to larger loads than it was initially intended for. \nHistorically there have been countless buildings\, bridges\, and other structural elements that have collapsed due to various causes such as corrosion\, unpredicted loads\, or natural disasters. Usually\, the first approach to mitigate structural failure includes periodic visual inspections as part of the maintenance schedule. Additionally\, there are different methods to evaluate and monitor existing structures. For example\, non-destructive testing\, evaluation techniques and Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) technologies are important resources for assessing concrete quality\, integrity\, and performance in situ. \nThe construction engineering industry is a leader in new technologies and research that is focused on structural behavior monitoring. This webinar aims to discuss the technologies that can support engineers\, architects\, and construction professionals seeking up-to-date information to evaluate the condition of concrete in deep foundations\, bridges\, buildings\, pavements\, dams\, and other concrete construction. \nDr. Ana Evangelista has been investigating different methods and techniques used to evaluate concrete properties. \nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterward. \nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session. \nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nPlease join Dr. Imtiaz Madni\, EIT Lecturer\, to gain an overview of the significant field of industrial data communications and its key factors. \nIndustrial data communication is characterized by its operating environment. Electromagnetic interference (EMI)\, long distances and physical barriers set industrial communications apart from typical business office requirements. Conventional equipment usually lacks the versatility to adapt to the unique requirements of data monitoring and process control. With so many different standards in practice today\, the debate is not about what is the best (for example: Foundation Fieldbus\, Profibus\, Devicenet or Industrial Ethernet)\, but rather about selecting the most appropriate technologies and standards for a given application and then ensuring that best practice is followed in designing\, installing and commissioning the data communications links to ensure they run fault-free. \nDuring this webinar\, we will discuss the basics of industrial data communication and networking\, including OSI model and TCP/IP based networks and where to safely use an industrial web intranet. \nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards. \nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session. \nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nPlease join Dr. Steve Mackay\, EIT Founder and Dean of Engineering\, to gain an insight into guerrilla project management tools and the successful use of these in real engineering projects. \nSome of you may have been trained in project management techniques (e.g. using the acclaimed PMBOK)\, which can work. In using Guerrilla tactics\, you can seriously enhance your classical project management techniques and achieve incredible outcomes in your next project. The world is a considerably more uncertain place\, and flexibility and adaptability are becoming key elements in managing any project. \nThis presentation will give you these guerrilla tools – in which to really nail your next engineering project into the extreme success category! Real life examples of engineering projects where these tools have been successfully applied will be demonstrated. \nGuerrillas operate with minimal (and often inferior) resources and are incredibly flexible. This means operating at a low cost with minimal overheads\, being extremely action oriented and very elastic. This is the essence of great project management. \nThe challenge when you are running a project is that you establish controls\, build in a hierarchy of managers and established ways of doing things. This can be dangerous as it runs counter-intuitively to individual’s initiatives which is the driver of guerrilla project management. \nA few obvious examples are to avoid fixed assets; subcontract out where possible. Battlefield communications need to be responsive as you need accurate information and the ability to communicate quickly and effectively with all staff. Especially between staff working in the field to the top level managers. Show your troops the way – ensure your commanders are always in the heat of the battle – to ensure all your key project managers are in the field encountering the real problems occurring. \nGive your troops in the field responsibility and measure them immediately on their successes. Avoid multi-layered chains of command as this bogs a good project down. \nJoin us to learn more at this must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards. \nA certificate of attendance will be provided to attendees who request one near the end of the live webinar session. \nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).

DESCRIPTION:The live presentation of this event has already taken place. To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nJoin Dr. Arti Siddhpura\, one of EIT’s Mechanical Engineering Lecturers\, to find out what would have happened if Leonardo da Vinci used CAD Software. \nThe Mona Lisa\, The Last Supper\, the first flying machine\, parachute\, and machine-gun – the list of Leonardo da Vinci’s achievements could go on and on. But there are several of his brilliant ideas that are still on the paper and never made it to this list of achievements. \nOne of the most remarkable facets of da Vinci was his ability to make a connection between multiple disciplines – combining Science with Art\, Humanities and Technologies. He was one of the most productive geniuses in history. He was so full of many ideas and didn’t have any efficient technology to test them out. Great engineers of the past had none of the resources\, such as CAD\, that we have today. So\, it begs the question\, what if Leonardo da Vinci used CAD software? \nIn this webinar\, Dr. Siddhpura will explore some of the capabilities of modern CAD software and how Leonardo da Vinci could have used these. \nThis is a must-attend event for engineering professionals and aspiring engineers alike. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.

To download the recording and presentation slides\, please complete the form below.\n \nPlease join Dr. Steve Mackay in our next free online live webinar to gain a better understanding of Catastrophic Engineering Failure\, what it means and what you can do about it. \nCatastrophic engineering failure is the sudden failure of a system. Recovery is impossible and this often leads to a cascading effect with other systems failing. This description is often used for structural failure but can be extended to other types of engineering failure. \nDuring the webinar\, Dr. Mackay will: \n\nDefine Catastrophic Failure\nProvide you with examples/case studies\nGive you some solutions when facing Catastrophic Failure\n\nThe likelihood of encountering a catastrophic failure in engineering is indeed a possibility. This session will provide you with some insights and some tips for dealing with them. \nReserve your spot at this free webinar today! \nThe webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterward. A certificate of participation can be provided to attendees who request it after the live webinar. \nPlease note: the time stated on this event is in Australian Western Standard Time (AWST).
