We are excited to announce that The Apsley developed by Welltower™ Inc. (NYSE:WELL), Sunrise Senior Living, and Hines recently received the WELL Platinum Certification! It not only became the first assisted living facility in the U.S. to achieve WELL Platinum Certification but also the largest assisted living facility in the world to achieve this distinction from the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI). We are proud to be the acoustic consultant for this project! Sitting atop the New York City subway lines, our acoustical team isolated the entire building to ensure noise and vibration transfer from space to space was kept to a minimum. We invited our clients to come in and experience a simulation of the sound and physical vibration of subway pass-bys with and without the room-in-room isolation scheme. This helped them better understand the effects of each option and make an informed decision to move forward with the concept. Congratulations to the team! SLCE Architects, Champalimaud Design, AKF Group, Langan Engineering & Environmental Services, Thornton Tomasetti, CodeGreen Sustainability, GHP and Hunter Roberts Construction Group. https://lnkd.in/gJUBCgF9 #BuiltEnvironment #Cerami #CeramiAcoustics #acoustics #vibration #consulting #architecture #design #seniorliving #NYC

BREAKING #GetShedsDown news 📢 After an extensive selection process, firms Arup US and Practice for Architecture and Urbanism (PAU) have been selected to deliver six new better-looking, more cost-efficient designs for scaffolding/construction sheds and pedestrian safety equipment. The redesigns will include four options for sidewalk-level sheds and two options for non-sidewalk-level pedestrian safety equipment, such as mesh fiber wraps or netting. Those six designs will be publicly released by the city to give every contractor the ability to build and use them, further driving down costs through competition.

With the changes in regulation for drainage, the environment and planning upon us I think it helped having our disciplines together for a fruitful exchange of views...and we also learnt about peppers...tomatoes, renaissance architecture and the merits of adapting it for mid century living! #berrys #planning #architecture #heritage #engineering
Today our planning, architectural and heritage and conservation teams enjoyed an away day at Shrewsbury Town FC. The agenda generated interactive discussion and included maximising social media opportunities, regulatory updates, negotiation techniques and a take on Ready Steady Cook! for a great group of people achieving the exceptional. #Berrys #PropertyConsultants #Planning #Architecture #HeritageAndConservation #Engineering #Teamwork

Traditional methods and materials are continually being reassessed and replaced with superior alternatives that offer enhanced performance, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness. One such breakthrough in the realm of construction materials is the introduction of Magicrete AAC Blocks. Unveiling the Strength of Magicrete AAC Blocks When it comes to construction, strength is a paramount concern. The structural integrity of a building depends heavily on the materials used in its construction. Magicrete AAC Blocks, with their impressive strength of 4N/mm², provide unparalleled stability and resilience. Surpassing Red Clay Bricks For decades, red clay bricks have been the go-to choice for builders. However, they come with their own set of limitations, including variability in quality, significant environmental impact due to the firing process, and limited strength. Environmental Impact Magicrete AAC blocks not only offer exceptional strength but also embody a commitment to sustainability. They are eco-friendly materials that contribute to green building practices. For builders, developers, and homeowners looking to embrace modern, efficient, and sustainable construction methods, Magicrete AAC Blocks are the clear choice.

Making your world a quieter place * Acoustic specialist * Creative engineer * tonic lover (with AND without gin)
As the demand for larger and taller modular timber structures in cross-laminated timber (CLT) rises, ensuring robust horizontal connections between modules becomes imperative for structural integrity. However, this can inadvertently lead to acoustic contact bridges. In anticipation of an upcoming project in the Netherlands, CDM Stravitec conducted a comprehensive test arrangement using two 3D modules in CLT to explore different methods of interconnection. The on-site test campaign provided invaluable insights, allowing us to identify the most effective solution for our project. Curious to learn more about our findings and the selected solution? Grab your copy of our white paper for a detailed exploration of this important matter. Get your copy: https://lnkd.in/dEaQDEpj Curious about the acoustical hurdles in mass timber construction? Swing by booth 995 of CDM Stravitec at the International Mass Timber Conference in Portland on March 26-28. Let's dive into the discussion together. #acoustics #soundinsulation #cdmstravitec #straviwood #clt #quietbuildings #noiseandvibration #comfort #acoustics #proudengineering #architecture #ThinkDifferent #IMTC2024 #InternationalMassTimberConference #CLTconstruction #modular #flanking

LAND 702 - Landscape Architecture Studio III -Advanced Winter 2024, Instructor: Enrica Dall'Ara "Fuelling Down" I am really happy to share the 2nd phase of my studio project Fuelling Down which discusses about the cultural, social and futuristic approach to the energy landscape of Calgary through the Gas stations. Being one of the prime cities in Alberta, Calgary is a really big part of the energy landscape of Alberta. The gas stations in it are the stimuli points for the movement and speed of the city. Through this project at this stage I am trying to envision these gas stations as communal, cultural as well as heritage spaces in the future. As we are running towards a future which is so electric power based, maybe we will end up not using these gas station spaces at all due to the decline in fossil fueled vehicles, Instead EVs will be the new definition for speed and movement. I have tried to think about that scenario and what we can make of these stations as they have great potential to become a communal space, or a cultural heritage or a reflection to the history of the oil landscape in Alberta.... This was our 2nd phase of analysis through which I tried to explore these regimes.

*APPEAL ALLOWED* We at Avalon are delighted to have secured consent at appeal for enhancements to Sideshore’s fantastic offer on Exmouth seafront! The proposals for a new multi-use hub building for Sideshore CIC provides purpose-built accommodation for the site operations, meeting space for use by local community groups and additional ancillary space to support events on the adjacent green space. The consent also secures WC facilities in a modest extension to the existing buildings all powered by renewable energy. The application was refused at Planning Committee against officer recommendation for approval in February 2023 on matters relating to impact on the character and appearance of the area. We submitted an appeal via the written representations route in June 2023 and are pleased to see that The Inspector fully agreed with our case that the proposed innovative, high quality and low impact design developed by HiltonBarnfield Architects was an appropriate response to the character of the site, it’s landscape setting and the constraints and opportunities it affords. The proposals have been underpinned by an ethos of delivering the lowest impact building as possible and incorporates reclaimed materials and “wildlife walls” into its façade while utilising light weight ground screw foundation design to minimise the need to break ground. A great result for talented multidisciplinary team including Sideshore CIC, Hilton Barnfield Architects, Coreus Group, Airey & Coles Consulting Engineers, Greengage and Avalon Planning & Heritage (Archaeology). #planning #planningapproval #planningappeal #consultancy #avalonplanningandheritage #sustainabledevelopment
