Coronavirus, COVID-19
How pandemics affect building design
COVID-19 affected engineers and building professionals’ designs in many ways
Three steps for greenhouse gas emissions reporting
Climate risk reporting allows organizations to meaningfully evaluate their renewable energy portfolio and shows commitment to long-term success.
Effective communication in a high-noise environment
High-noise manufacturing environments are already difficult places to communicate, but COVID-19 and social distancing make it even harder. Learn how to overcome this challenge.
Protective cleanroom clothing essentials
Everything that enters a cleanroom must also be highly regulated to prevent the inadvertent introduction of pollutants, which includes protective cleanroom clothing.
Effective communication in a socially distanced world
Manufacturing facilities have unique challenges because of constant ambient background noise that limits effective communication. Practice and investing in the right technology can help mitigate these problems.
Long-term benefits of a successful environmental management system
Building a successful environmental management system (EMS) has several moving parts that need to be accounted for and organized in a way that is trackable and reportable.
Understand the difference between NEPA and CEQA
The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) are focused on the environmental impact of construction projects, but they have different emphases.
COVID-19 impact on engineering, engineers
Engineers like facts and seek credible information sources on COVID-19 (Coronavirus) effects to the engineering-related world. Engineers also have technologies, processes and expert advice that can help. See Control Engineering highlights.
Turning down the sound on environmental noise
The impact of environmental noise like construction, traffic, and even weather is an important, though often forgotten, part of the design process.
