Have you noticed the connection between empowering people to work smarter and sustainability in the workplace? “Sustainable construction practices center around environmental issues that affect people. Lean Construction principles start and stop with people. The ideas are not mutually exclusive; they are complimentary.” – Felipe Engineer-Manriquez, author and project delivery services director for The Boldt Company.

When you head into the downtown core of any major Canadian city, you'll likely find a lot of condo construction. Creating more housing is great, but how can we address more people on the roads? According to Dana O'Born, the chair of the board of Cycle Toronto, bicycles, might be the answer. Listen here: lnkd.in/dpvFj5nF
In an era where occupational health and safety are paramount, and one third of north Americans use wearable tech, the integration of wearable biofeedback technologies within personal protective equipment (PPE) is changing how the construction industry can enhance site safety. "By shedding light on the invisible impacts of stress, these tools [wearable biofeedback technologies] are fostering a culture where health and safety are intertwined, ensuring every employee has access to personalized strategies for managing stress and enhancing performance." - Naoum Chemaly, founder of NC Safety Consultants FZ-LLC Read more: lnkd.in/eQdDDJ2T #worksafety

As we celebrate #WomenInConstructionWeek and #InternationalWomensDay from March 4 to March 8, we want to recognize and pay tribute to the invaluable contributions of all the women at Chandos Construction. For Samantha De Sousa, a skilled labourer on our Vancouver team, Women in Construction Week is all about her passion for work. “The most fulfilling aspect of my job is the relationships you build on site. The workers respect me because they see me stepping outside of the box and assisting them with day-to-day tasks. Simply showing workers that you can help push to the finish line or pitch in when they feel overwhelmed creates a bond. The success of any job or company stems from the respect shown and given, it’s all about the connections you build along the way.” While there is still room to grow in gaining women’s visibility within the architectural, engineering, and construction industry, this week is about seeing how far we’ve come and thanking the women who have made it happen. #iwd2024 #wicweek2024
Do you think about how construction could interact with generative AI? Or what technology we could use to transition to a green economy? The architecture, engineering, and construction industry is ever-evolving and continues to push technological advancement. From building information modelling (BIM) enhancing project collaboration to integrating drones and robotics onsite, the AEC sector is redefining how we build.

Wind forests could be cropping up across Europe! Maybe not whole forests, but New World Wind have developed a new wind turbine technology that meshes environmentally responsible energy and public art. “Solar panels can work between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. … with our technology, we can provide energy seven days a week, 24 hours a day, and if we create more energy than we can consume during the night or day, we can store it inside the battery.” Luc Eric Krief, owner of New World Wind.

As Black History Month draws to a close, it’s important to reflect on the pivotal contributions Black people have made in Canada. John Ware first arrived in Alberta in 1882 as a free man. Throughout his career as a cowboy in Alberta, he became known as a leader in agriculture and ranching, developing innovative approaches to farm management and land cultivation. His entrepreneurial drive led him to start his own herd and later his own ranch near Millarville, Alberta. Does his name ring a bell? You might recognize his name from Ware Creek, John Ware Ridge, or because our SAIT project team redeveloped the John Ware building on campus.
In Canada, wearable technology is increasing in popularity. Over 15 per cent wear smart watches or internet connected gluecuose readers. Wearable biofeedback technology has the potential to innovate the construction industry by becoming apart of the personal protective equipment (PPE) arsenal, revolutionizing how we mitigate high-risk industries. buildinggood.ca/blog/technolog…
#DidYouKnow that public infrastructure can help fight against plastic pollution? Last20 is addressing excess waste by upcycling plastic into pavement. Lucas and Lauren explain the process and how we can drastically reduce the need for conventional asphalt, which relies on bitumen. buildinggood.ca/blog/environme…
Over the next ten years a large per cent of construction workers are expected to retire, leaving a large gap in skills. How can we address this? Fulton Cure, from Jordan Foster Construction has an idea. He explores how we can be better leaders. ow.ly/94oP50QBQEe
After knowing what you know now, would you tell a recent graduate to go after the same job? When we start our dream careers, it's easy to overlook things and think "things will get better". As we get older it's easier to understand annoyances can actually be red flags. Jamie McMillan has been a welder and ironworker for 27 years; she's the founder of KickAss Careers and Made in the Trades. Join Jamie and host Geoff Capelle as they work out what makes a dream job and how the construction industry can keep people for the long haul. LISTEN NOW: ow.ly/S8Mk50PZHTW
