In 2000 began operating thecommunication channel of 16 kmbetween the cities ofCopenhagen (Denmark) andMalmö (Sweden) through theØresund Strait, fulfilling a dreamof more than a century.
Half of the bridge is under water. You drive under
water then salt across the underwater tunnel. Reallya piece of engineering! . This bridge is betweenSweden and Denmark
The bridge (or should it be called tunnel) goes
under water to allow the passage of ships.
The photo was taken from the side ofSweden
Particular aspects of the construction of the tunnel was developed an innovative construction technique that was especially designed to minimize risks from Scandinavian weather. 20 were constructed immense tunnel segments of length 176 m, a width of 38.65 m and height 8.55 m.
? Tunnel segments were transported towed from the fabrication yard. Once each segment positioned with great accuracy using GPS technology, they proceeded to the immersion thereof, placing on a previously prepared and granular level in the seabed. In this way we constructed a straight tunnel 3.520 m. Once sealed joints by dive staff, proceeded progressively dried inside the duct
The track contains a highway and railway, andconsists of a stretch of 6.7 km bridge withcomposite steel and concrete post-tensioning. Thedesign includes the latest technology to ensuredurability of 100 years in severe environmentalconditions. The Øresund Link also has anunderwater tunnel stretch over 4 km long, and oneintermediate section built on a large artificial island.This set is designed to withstand temperaturesbelow 20 degrees below zero, high salinity imposedby the marine environment and the possiblecollision of vessels or ice impacts. Using the latesttechnology and a special concrete, H-50, shouldguarantee a life expectancy of one hundred years inan environment as aggressive as are the North andBaltic seas. For an environment as extreme, withthose temperatures, has gone to the Spanishtechnology. The 49 panels that make up the wholeof the approach spans of the cable-stayed bridgewere built in the sunny town of Puerto Real Cadiz.The Spanish company Dragados Offshore wascommissioned to build and transported by sea tothe Swedish coast.

It is said that the three-tier
structure, located in
Barquisimeto, Lara state, with
a vault of 16 petals that open
and close on a "stem"
hydraulic height of 19 meters,
is one of the most imaginative
pavilions sample. Designed by
renowned Venezuelan
architect Fruit Vivas and
entitled "A flower for the
World", the structure
inspired by the monolithic tepuis rising amid the
stunning landscape of the Gran Sabana, as well
as Venezuela's national flower, the orchid.
When open, or in full bloom, if you will, the
flower has a diameter of 39 meters
The student to listen and / or talk of Engineeringimagine endless things that could get done ... Butto become an engineer (professional capable ofassuming the realization of an idea into realitythrough techniques, designs, and models withprior knowledge of science) comes with great
responsibilities.Most interested in pursuing this career does notactually know the world we will delve unknownbecause the entire length of the field, becausethey only have extensive superficial idea of whatit is. Thus man is invited to express themselvesthrough mental codes being well integrated intocreational dynamics so that every day should beinformed of new trends not only in technology,but it is implied that an engineer is one whichmust always keep contact.
If indeed our goal is to become professionalssuch as aspire to be….

Petrochemical plants are usually located
close to major oil and gas, in order to
have easy access, ie, its location is
determined by their sources of supply.
The country's first petrochemical
plant was established between
1956 and 1963 in Morón, Carabobo
State
by the proximity to sources of raw
materials, its proximity to the docks
of Puerto Cabello for import and
export purposes, as well as the
connection with the railroad Puerto
Cabello - Barquisimeto; staying.
Moron Complex constituted as follows
1. Experimental Refinery
2. Chlor-alkali plant.
3. Complex fertilizer
4. Riecito and Aroa Mines
In Falcon state is Refining Center
Paraguaná, formed by the interconnection of refineries
Amuay and Cardon (Falcon), and Bajo Grande (Zulia State).
In the El Palito have Carabobo state, and the state
Anzoátegui refineries are located in Puerto La Cruz
and San Roque. Finally is incorporated by
lease agreement with the government of Curacao,
La Isla refinery
The operation of much of the petrochemical
Venezuelan is currently in the hands
State, which has extensive efforts
in order to efficiently channel
functioning of the industry
complex for oil refining in Venezuela larger.
It is located in Waterford Township, near the
town of El Palito, on the coasts of Carabobo
State, Venezuela. Currently has a maximum
processing capacity of 140,000 barrels per
day. [] This complex, controlled by Petroleos
de Venezuela (PDVSA), supplies fuel and
referred to the center west of the country
through a system of pipelines that supply the
distribution plants "El Palito", "Yagua" and
"Barquisimeto".
El Palito refinery
Complex was the first in
Venezuela with self
synchronous electrical
interconnection with the
national electricity
system.
It is also where he first
started producing
gasoline
ngineering projects arecharacterized by intensive use ofvarious technologies to developproducts, processes or services toeach of the projects. In manycases, if there is no technological
knowledgeenough will fail and will involvethe project previously and haveaccess to the same level ofadequate knowledge.
Because of this, companies principally engaged in the projects must have appropriate technologies for their development (as well as joint projects using similar technologies.This means having adequate management processes for identification, evaluation, selection, acquisition, joining the company, optimization and improvementcontinuously.
However, a certain technology is used in more than one project, so many organizations undertaking projects tend to manage technology resources in a general way, and not tied to a specific project.
In many cases, they think future needs so that technology can be incorporatedyet not be used
Managing technology is a powerful tool that should be framed within the general innovation processes that are subject to all companies.
Increasingly extent of the resource control technology provides a competitive advantage to organizations, especially those in which is integrated into the overall strategy of the organization.
And this is much more important in the case of organizations dedicated to the generation of products or services in high-tech sectors in which the period of validity of a particular technology (in terms of adequacy and performance comparison with other competitors) is increasingly smaller (shorter product cycles)
All engineering projects
require the
concurrence of various
technologies

Mubarak, Egypt: The Toshka Project
The Toshka project is an amazing attempt to
convert a half million acres of farmland in
paisajedesértico. The Mubarak Pumping Station is
at the center of this project, and will channel
millions of cubic feet of water per hour. Ultimately, it
will be able to redirect 10% of the country's water
from the Nile and increase habitable land in Egypt
by as much as 25%.
Seagaia, artificial beach in Japan. It is a
resort located on Kyushu Island, which also
contains a luxury hotel, spa, conference
center and golf course, a spectacular artificial
beach under a retractable roof. The beach
surfing waves produces and maintains a
constant temperature of about 28 degrees.
Closed in October 2007
Kansai International Airport in Japan. It is
located on an artificial island 4 miles long and
a mile wide. The terminal is a building
designed by Renzo Piano. A sophisticated
pedestrian transportation system moves
passengers from one end to the other. The
roof of the terminal was designed with the
appearance of the profile of an airplane wing,
so that is used by your ventilation system.
Easington Norway to Britain: The Langeled Pipeline
It is scheduled to be the longest underwater pipeline in the
world. Ultimately, it will supply 20% of gas needs of the United
Kingdom, connecting England with the largest gas field in
Europe through 750 miles of underwater complex terrain.
Engineers have had to face freezing temperatures and stormy
waters, and develop techniques for installing the pipe as they
are able to establish an impressive 8 miles of pipe per day.
Millau, France: The Millau Viaduct
The Millau Viaduct is the highest
bridge in the world. It is almost 1000
feet high (even higher than the Eiffel
Tower) and over 8000 feet long
At over 1000 feet in height, this lift is
located on the way to a cliff overlooking a
valley far below. Also, the elevator is
mostly glass, offering passengers a
dizzying view to the depths below. There is
concern, however, about the long-term lift
impact on the natural environment
Yangtze, China: The Three Gorges
This project has drawn the attention of people around the
world for its role in increasing water levels and the displacement
of millions of Chinese residents in the area, including
engineering work, however, is incomparable. It will be the
world's largest hydroelectric dam, 600 feet high and contains
1.4 trillion cubic feet of water behind 100 million cubic feet of
concrete. This marvel of engineering also eventually provide as
much as 10% of large electricity needs China.
Boston, Massachusetts: The Big Dig
The so-called Big Dig is a massive tunneling project
in the heart of Boston, and is the most massive and
expensive construction project in the history of the
United States (15 billion dollars). The engineers are
forced to navigate a maze of subways, pipes and
utility lines in the course of the project, all with
minimal disruption to the bustling streets of Boston.

World's Largest Foreign
The Eurotunnel Channel. Is the tunnel
crossing the English Channel, linking France
with England. It was opened on May 6, 1994.
His journey takes approximately 35 minutes
between Calais / Coquelles (France) and
Folkestone (UK). It has a length of 50 km,
including 39 submarines, making it the
longest underwater tunnel in the world, with
an average depth of 40 meters.
Bride Tower, London. It is a bascule bridge in
London over the River Thames, created by
Horace Jones. It measures 244m in length, has
two towers, each 65m in height. The center
distance between the two vantage 61m has two
cams, which can be raised through an angle of
83 degrees to allow traffic to pass fluvial
The Thames Barrier in London. The barrier
system, 520 meters long, consists of 10
movable gates (each weighing 3,700 tons)
subject between pillars in the river. It is an
original piece of engineering built in east
London, near Greenwich. The pillars support
mechanisms to move the gates and control
systems.
G-Cans Project, Tokyo sewers. In the
basement of Tokyo this colonnade stands 20
meters high, is the most sophisticated sewer
system in the world, designed and prepared to
deal with a tsunami. The main tank is 177
meters long by 78 deep and 20 high, for their
channels can go up to 44 million liters, the
system is powered by 14,000 turbines which
can pump up to 200 tons of water per second
Transatlantic tunnel:
Imagine a magnetic train that could go through a tunnel
suspended in the Atlantic Ocean, the distance between
New York and London in just 54 minutes.The theory is that
this would be possible, and the people at Discovery
Channel has tried to illustrate . order to achieve this should
reach a speed of 8050 km per hour through a tunnel length
of 5000 km, which would be floating in the ocean itself.

The World (islands) Dubai:
The World (Arabic: :Spanish ;العالم جزر 'The World') is the
name of an artificial archipelago located off the coast of
Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. This engineering
project is one of the most ambitious in the emirate. The
World Islands are approximately 9 km long and 7 km
wide. They cover a total of approximately 9.34 million
meters square (9.34 km ² 1 terrestrial surface only, if
you include the maritime and has 55 km ² Earthly 2)
Dubai Towers is a complex of towers proposed
in Dubai, UAE. The developer, Sama Dubai,
intends to create the centerpiece of the resort
The Lagoons, a megaproject located on Dubai
Creek which will consist of a set of seven
islands.
The towers have between 57 and 94
plants1 and although the heights are not
yet known, it is believed that the highest
tower could reach 550m, while another
would reach 460m, third in the 410m
height and the last 360m. This would add
four skyscrapers over 300m to sparkling
skyline of Dubai today.
Area's proximity to the airport is one of
the reasons used to justify all the towers
did not exceed 400mt
Its construction started in April 2006 and
not finished until 2010. In addition to
design "Sui Generis", the complex will
house a planetarium, museum, theater,
shopping centers, apartments, offices
and a marina. Its total cost is $ 18 trillion.
Designed by TVSA, these towers are
designed to completely change the
current field. Its design represents the
movement of the sails according to
TVSA, symbolizing hope, harmony,
growth and opportunity. Its use will be
mixed and will contain offices,
apartments, hotels, shops, recreational
areas, gym, spa and a variety of other
services.
Gustave Eiffel use human femur
structure to build his tower of 300
meters, the Eiffel Tower, the tallest
building in the world until 1930, shifting
the weight of the tower to the side and
to the ground like the femur with our
own weight
The Eiffel Tower was
designed based on the
femur
The Eiffel tower has a height of 317 meters with
a weight exceeding 10,000 tonnesIt was expected that the tower
reached 350 feet high, but the
neighbors were alarmed by the
threat of such a tall building and
built with little stones might fall,
and demonstrated, causing a
change of plans
•Maintenance of the tower includes
applying paint fifty tons every five years, in
order to protect it from corrosion.
Sometimes changing the paint color (in
2005 the tower showed a brown hue). On
the first floor, there are consoles that allow
voting in the election of the future color of
the structure. The original color of the
tower was yellow, but today there is
nothing left of it.
* It is believed that approximately half of
the unions with which has the structure
(with rivets) are made for safety reasons ,
ie keep the tower standing but failed half
of joints between parts
* Between 1889 and 2004, the Eiffel
Tower received over 200 million visitors
from the same France, Spain, USA, UK,
Germany, Italy, among others. The Eiffel
tower is the most visited place in the world

These professionals tend to neglect their image, which is
counterproductive, says David Navarro; wear checked shirts, prefer blue,
and use love denim sports watch? Identified?
In the life of every person comes a moment when you
realize that it's time to learn and develop new skills
we once thought useless or little strategic for our
development and professional success. Today I want
to talk specifically about the case of engineers,
analytical and methodical those professionals who
know better than anyone the processes, systems,
implementation of technology strategies and resource
savings in both time and money, helping companies
become more competitive .
Throughout my career as a Business Consultant
Image pleasantly I found that most of my clients are
men engineers. Over time I realized why. Most I have
shared that during his training always focused first
increase their knowledge, neglecting aspects such as
their appearance and image dress, also know both
professionally and socially interact. They learned and
found that its value and professional success lies in
their knowledge and yet there comes a time in the life
of every engineer when he climbed a stronger
leadership position in the company in which you
realize that did not care about the way dress, to
project professionalism and leadership through their
clothing. A new challenge begins, but now has
nothing to do with systems or processes but with his
image.
How regularly wears an engineer?In order to illustrate this point I'll talk a little aboutthe dress of the engineers, same as in myexperience as a consultant on image I found, thereare of course exceptions:Almost a unified favorite color is blue engineers,followed by gray and black. Very few dare to usecolors other than those listed.
One of the most challengingthat I do for my clients is that Irespond: What matters most?,To be or look like? Almost allanswered without hesitation"BE", which is true in part. In aworld where appearancesmatter of course to be veryimportant because we are allunique and unrepeatable.However, in reality be notenough.
When an engineer begins todeal with customers and leavesa remote operating station ormeans to exert a higher levelposition and leadership is facedwith the new challenge ofhobnobbing with executives ofadministrative areas and eventhe CEO, people who know ofthe importance of the image(though of course there aremany exceptions)
You must be and appearthe best. If you are thebest but do not look it,your superiors will leaveat the end of the row ofpotential engineers to filla management positionor direction because theyproject a professionalimage of high level.
What the secretthen
Take the case of an engineerwho knows which is the best,has the best decorations, offersgraduate studies and a greatexperience but it seems thebest. Miss several opportunitiesfor advancement to facegreater challenges becausesurely be dealing withcustomers and suppliers of highlevel
The logic of most executives is to invest in yourimage until you are promoted to post, which is amistake. You should dress for the job you wantnot
Strategic thinking in
They like plaid shirts, short sleevesometimes (with the justification that ismore convenient and practical), rubber-soled shoes or synthetic sports watchand cell phone on your belt fastened.Regarding pants, dress if they like thecolor black and gray, if they use one ofbrown combine it with black shoes.When the company's permits oractivities are operating, wear jeans andtennis wear they crave
If wearing a suit, white shirt sometimes is your last option, the first blue and yellow, gray or blue king other options. One way "combined practice" is plain navy suit, blue shirt and blue tie, as it is quick to think that combination and also "functional" uncomplicated. Usually, the majority ignores the details that a suit should care to look professional and elegant, such as the correct length of the bag, whether it favors a suit of two or three buttons, striped or plain, with tweezers or without clamps, with or without Valencia, besides knowing what goes with what.
They and theircolleagues know:engineers are
very good at what they do but their clothing is not always communicate the same message
for which you currently have. Thus will project you're ready to take on a higher level position. Start yourinterest in your dress and I invite you to see from this new perspective: "your image and dress shouldsupport your position." The clothes you wear communicates without words: your leadership position oroffice that you play, ability, skill, professionalism, how far you want to go, your education and how you takeinto account yourself.
Engineer's career
Never forget that your image should work in your favor, not against you
1. - An engineer who is not arrogant, is t
hat it is surrounded by useless
2. - An engineer does not have the
big ego, is that the room is very
small
3. - Not wanting to always be right,
is that the other always wrong
4. - An Engineer is not lacking
feelings, is that the other girls are a
whiny
5. - A disorganized
Engineer has no life, is
one that has a special
lifestyle
6. - An engineer does not seethe world, change it
7. - An Engineer is not it a thought, is
that mere mortals do not understand.
8. - An Engineer is not being calculated and
cold just seems funny to pass over the
common people.
9. - An Engineer is not intriguing, is that users
are entangled because they understand
nothing.
10. - An Engineer is not a critical error is that
people are very evident.
11. - An Engineer is not useless for everyday
tasks, what the hell is that spend their valuable
energies on nonsense
12. - Not that the job is to absorb them ...
From what the hell he was talking about
13. - An Engineer makes no
mistakes, only test if others were
paying attention!
14. - Not that you create the best, is
that they are!.
