Commercial Construction Juegos 3d Commercial Property | Sustainability – 2010 Winter Olympics


commercial construction When Vancouver was awarded the Host City status, the committee for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Games (VANOC) established several objectives in terms of sustainability:  

Accountability Accountability takes cognizance of the fact that this event is not exclusive to those participating in it, or the investors who have made it possible. Rather, it is designed to benefit the entire community, as well as visitors to the Host City long after the event. For this reason, Canada as a whole and Vancouver in particular commit to open communication, ethical behavior and honest consultations with those affected by the developments (including local residents, community groups and NGO’s)  

juegos 3d Environmental Stewardship and Impact Reduction With the extensive construction and development that such an event requires, it is easy to forget the value of the environment. For this reason, it has become a major priority to preserve and protect the natural beauty and ecosystems in Vancouver as far as possible. Any negative impacts caused by our developments need to be addressed and compensated for.   VANOC has committed to:

- Ensuring that design and location of venues is as eco-friendly as possible
- Rehabilitating areas that have been negatively impacted
- Using members of the community to build and assist, so that they are economically benefited, as well as protecting their human rights
- Saving water, energy and materials as far as possible to minimize waste
- Disposing of waste in a responsible way

Located in the gorgeous Callaghan Valley, the Whistler Olympic Park is the site of the Olympic biathlon, cross-country skiing, ski jumping and Nordic combined events at the 2010 Olympics. It will also host the Paralympics biathlon and cross country skiing events. The park includes 55 kilometres of proficiently groomed cross-country trails, biathlon range and stadium and extraordinary ski jumps; a truly world-class arena for 2010 Olympic contenders.

Aboriginal Participation and Collaboration Aboriginal participation is very important to VANOC, Vancouver and Canada alike. Not only does this benefit the Aboriginal community, but it has reciprocal benefits for the entire Olympic Movement. VANOC is working with partners to ensure that Aborigine people from all over the country are brought to the site of the event as volunteers, athletes, performers, spectators, etc…  

Used in isolation or with a combination of uninterruptible power supplies and generating systems, a Static Transfer Switch is ideal for use in projects that require the highest possible levels of resilience and protection of critical loads including data centres, security, surveillance and transportation systems.

Static transfer switches cater for high power ratings and can be hardwired for either single or three-phase inputs and outputs. They can also be connected in parallel to provide additional resilience. Care has to be taken to ensure a single-point-of-failure is not introduced on the output side of the uninterruptible power supply. Each device is fused or protected by a circuit-breaker and should this rupture or open, the load could be dropped.

Small businesses and those further away from the action (outside London) are not immune either. In many cases, the further they are away from the main electrical distribution hub the less reliable their supply will be (and the more prone to power problems as described earlier). If electrical supplies are strained in built up and urban areas, you can bet your life they will be more so in rural areas and further a field.

The only way of securing electrical supply during the 2012 Olympic Games is to ensure adequate, effective and properly planned power protection strategy with the implementation of uninterruptible power supplies and onsite, independent generation You can be published without charge.
