Did you check out our new tunnel brochure after yesterday's post? If you did - you might have discovered our GTLED Pro - high performance tunnel lighting for entrances right through to exits.

DID YOU KNOW ? Tunnel lighting is the opposite of street lighting.
In contrast to street lighting, the brighter it is outside, the greater the need to illuminate tunnel entrances to avoid the "black hole" effect. On the other hand, at night, the darker it gets, the more it's necessary to dim tunnel entrances to reduce the glare created by over-lighting.
As two-thirds of accidents occur at tunnel entrances, lighting plays an important role in road user safety. An intelligent control system that adjusts to outside light levels is therefore essential. TLACS is the type of system that Nyx Hemera Technologies has been installing in nearly 150 tunnels around the world for the past 15 years. For further information: https://lnkd.in/e8vppyR8
How cheap port lighting comes at a price
Ports and terminals represent some of the most challenging operational environments on earth, and lighting solutions need to be designed, built, and tested with those unique conditions in mind.

Air Vent Seminar in Troy, Michigan Results...
Solid turnout and lively Q & A for the Air Vent Seminar in Troy, Michigan today.
Question of the Day: "With reverse gables, for example, the linear footage of available eave area/overhang to use intake vents is limited. How do we balance the intake with the exhaust?"
Answer: Good call. Sometimes the practicality of properly venting an attic is not thought through during the house/roof design phase. We do the best we can with the cards we've been dealt. With reverse gables you could add a 2nd type of intake wherever there is roof surface to use. Thus, you'd have intake vents in the overhang and on the roof low at the edge. They would work together because they are in the same wind pressure zone.
Tomorrow our seminar heads to Novi, MI. Next week we go to Texas for 3 stops. Use the link below to reserve your FREE spot at any seminar through April 11, 2024.

Sometimes, people outside the industry, besides my mom have a tough time understanding what geotechnical monitoring is, (let alone wireless IIot ) and even if I explain it, I get a blank expression or "oh, you're computer guy" (uh...no).. I wish I could share this video with them to show them how we make sure bridges don't wiggle TOO much with a funky little "datalogger" to read the movement and deliver results to a cell phone anywhere., you know, as an example. Can anybody in the business offer a clear, short, explanation in layman's terms?
Wind and suspension bridge 😬 sound on !
This video, taken in December 2020, shows the Verrazzano-Narrows bridge NYC span’s empty upper level heaving up and down, and making a sound like a loud groan as wild winds blasted the Big Apple. 60 Mph wind conducted to this resonance case, under control according engineers following the bridge.
The Verrazzano-Narrows bridge is a suspension bridge connecting the New York City boroughs of Staten Island and Brooklyn. Constructed in 1964, the double-deck bridge carries 13 lanes of Interstate 278: seven on the upper level and six on the lower level.
