EDITOR‘S NOTE

F

or the first time in some years, institutional construction activity growth is expected to exceed its commercial counterparts. The major commercial sectors are feeling the headwinds of a mollifying economy, while demographic forces are still driving the key institutional sectors.

The retail industry and its activities continue to experience blows from the advent and steadily growing trend of online shopping thanks in major part to the accessibility, convenience, and speed it brings to the experience.

While only having about 10% of total sales, e-commerce has been moving nowhere but upward at about thrice the rate of traditional offline sales.

Of course, without the need for offline stores and physical shops, construction endeavors have also slowed down.

Office construction looks to be the strongest commercial sector, with 5 percent growth projected for this year and 1 percent in 2020. This sector has benefited from strong job growth, and the apparent bottoming out of the years-long decline in office space per employee. Much of the increase has come from the booming technology sector, so the outlook is dependent on continued growth in this industry sector.

2020 Construction Trends Education facilities are the largest non-residential building sector, accounting for over 20% of overall spending.

Public and private schools, colleges, and whole university campuses are the bread and butter of the construction industry, which is a testament to the younger generation’s desire to learn and acquire knowledge. While demographic trends are generally complimentary to the education construction outlook, fiscal developments are the real engine for growth.

Healthcare building spending is benefiting from favourable demographics, but growth has been compromised by ambiguous operations and modifications to the federal Affordable Care Act. The outlook appears to be a bit brighter now and the panel is requesting for 4% growth this year and an additional 3.6% in the next.

The non-residential building construction outlook may best be defined as advancing from tightknit contemporary conditions but tempered by upward uncertainty over the bigger picture of economic trends.

The fact that architecture firms and construction companies had a solid last year bodes well for healthy progression continuing in construction activity through this year.

However, AIA recently surveyed architecture firms and construction companies about their expectations for revenue growth in 2019, which are more mitigated.

Every Chef and Restaurant Owners in PH should have this Induction Cooker

F

ood is an integral part of Philippine culture but not everyone can cook. It is, however, something we all should learn. We may never be the next Gordon Ramsay or Jaime Oliver, but we should strive to do more than pop a few leftovers in the microwave, cook rice, or fry a couple of eggs. While it is understandable that cooking is neither a walk in the park nor an inviting skill to learn, since it is very technical and mathematical at its core, an induction cooker makes this important life skill safer, easier, and more fun.

Usage of induction cookers is slowly on the rise, trailing and catching up to the two most common, widely used tools for cooking: gas cookers and electric cookers. These two have cemented themselves in our food-loving Filipino culture and have distinct advantages over the other. While gas cookers boast even heating across a person’s 10

cookware, electric cookers are easier to clean. The reason why induction cookers have come neck and neck to these two giants is because of the lack of overall difficulty in using it. An induction cooker takes the beautiful things about its gas and electric counterparts—even heating and ease of cleaning— and peppers it with even more advantages.

While induction cookers are the up and coming front-runners in the field of cooking, the TOSOT Induction Cooker stands above the rest in terms of number of advancements. It has a simple, slim, elegant design and a long list of features that keep its expert and novice users and their families in mind, making it revolutionary for meal-making and a surefire way to kick off the road to cooking proficiency.

You may not cook as well as Gordon Ramsay or Jamie Oliver even with the TOSOT Induction

Cooker, but you definitely will feel like an expert with these five amazing features:

1. It has a beautiful digital display and touch control panel From smartphones to tablets, touchscreen has been the current technological trend so far. Now you can cook with pride, knowing full well that even your induction cooker has a sleek display, user interface, and is smooth to the touch, giving you access to a wide variety of options.

2. It’s resistant to boiling and overheating Using magnetic currents to directly heat pots and pans instead of igniting a fire on the cooktop or turning on the electric stove, the TOSOT Induction Cooker is an overall more efficient tool to use in the kitchen. You can even crank it up and place your skin against it and nothing will happen.

But while your skin won’t burn, the pots and pans will be extremely hot.

Other induction cookers aren’t so lucky with extremely hot pots and pans. It is unfortunate to see the induction cooker break by the very thing it superheated. Luckily, the TOSOT Induction Cooker is much more resistant, allowing you to cook to your heart’s content.

3. It keeps kids from hurting themselves If you want to teach your kids how to cook, then sadly, the TOSOT Induction Cooker is not the right tool for the job. With its safety features and child lock design, this state of the art induction cooker cannot be tinkered by children. It may not be fun for the kids, but it is definitely fun for you while you cook with confidence knowing that your kids can’t break it or, unlike with other types of cookers, burn the house down.

4. It has presets, so you can live your chef dreams Soup, double stewed soup, porridge, chaffy dish, barbecue, and stir-fry. These six cooking presets allow you to be the experimental chef you have always wanted to be. You can make an entire Christmas feast using only the innovative TOSOT Induction Cooker.

5. You get freebies!

Who doesn’t like freebies? When you purchase a TOSOT Induction Cooker, you also get a free stainless steel cooking pot and non-stick frying pan for all your cooking needs. The cooking pot and frying pan is resistant to heat, giving you that added layer of safety and certainty when cooking.

This is especially helpful for new restaurant owners.

While there are many more useful features, the TOSOT Induction Cooker is perfect for novice and expert chefs, restaurant owners, and home cooks.

This induction cooker is a must have, and kitting your kitchen with this beauty is will just kick your culinary adventure into high gear.

As we close in on the year 2020, many individuals in the construction industry are conducting research and nigh endlessly studying about how they can improve their efficiency, work ethic, output, and overall morale. That having been said, here are their findings and gradually growing trends that are prospected to be realized next year.

Despite wanting to enter 2020 on the brighter side, a number of emerging red flags suggest a cautious outlook.

Investing on non-residential facilities is likely to grow by 4.4% in 2019, followed by healthy increases in the industrial and institutional 15

COVER STORY

building sectors. Coming into 2020, that growth is projected to decrease in rate to a staggering 2.4% with little to no increase in spending on commercial facilities. However, there will be gains in the 3% range in the industrial and institutional categories. Despite this, there are whispers of a broader economic downturn which may materialize over the next 1 to 2 years.

These continual gains in construction in the short-term is the projection of the AIA Consensus Construction Forecast Panel, composed of leading national construction forecasting firms. These individuals see the 2018 growth rate remaining essentially unchanged for this year, but is said to change significantly in 2020. The AIA’s Architecture Billings Index (ABI) has findings that are consistent with US architecture firms’ business conditions.

Overall, the economy is performing well. While tension is a recurring and persistent feeling, there has been an uphill movement in GDP. It is estimated to be close to 3% for this past year. The jobs market continues to be very healthy as well—there has been over 2.6 million net new payroll careers in the last year, greatly surpassing the 2.2 million in 2017. Thus, the unemployment rate was at an all time low at 4%.

Of course, there are also some weaknesses in certain key sectors of the economy. In spite of the overall economic strength, economic cracks are beginning to form in some of the leading sectors of the economy.

A sample of those vulnerable to this change are major consumer purchases like homes, cars, as well as major business investments in plant and equipment.

There is also international competition. Since it is established that the US economy is reliant on worldwide trade, holistic growth is becoming increasingly dependent on the global economy and its various statuses in different countries.

The International Monetary Fund’s latest prognoses imply that global economic growth will be decelerating in the coming years.

The slowdown is projected to be the greatest in advanced economies, such as those in the Eurozone as well as the UK, Japan, and Canada, among others. Additionally, a few emerging economies—one in particular being China—are expected to see slower growth in the forthcoming years.

For the first time in some years, institutional construction activity growth is expected to exceed its commercial counterparts. The major commercial sectors are feeling the headwinds of a mollifying economy, while demographic forces are still driving the key institu18

tional sectors.

The retail industry and its activities continue to experience blows from the advent and steadily growing trend of online shopping thanks in major part to the accessibility, convenience, and speed it brings to the experience. While only having about 10%of total sales, e-commerce has been moving nowhere but upward at about thrice the rate of traditional offline sales. Of course, without the need for offline stores and physical shops, construction endeavors have also slowed down.

While millennials and the working members of Generation Z have also stopped buying traditional houses and lots, construction is still on the rise due to the youth’s inclination towards condominium and apartment living. Most construction manpower and resources are being allotted to the 30

renovation of existing buildings, rooms, facilities, etc.

Office construction looks to be the strongest commercial sector, with 5 percent growth projected for this year and 1 percent in 2020. This sector has benefited from strong job growth, and the apparent bottoming out of the years-long decline in office space per employee. Much of the increase has come from the booming technology sector, so the outlook is dependent on continued growth in this industry sector.

Healthcare building spending is benefiting from favourable demographics, but growth has been compromised by ambiguous operations and modifications to the federal Affordable Care Act. The outlook appears to be a bit brighter now and the panel is requesting for 4% growth this year and an additional 3.6% in the next.

The non-residential building construction outlook may best be defined as advancing from tightknit contemporary conditions but tempered by upward uncertainty over the bigger picture of economic trends.

The fact that architecture firms and construction companies had a solid last year bodes well for healthy progression continuing in construction activity through this year. However, AIA recently surveyed architecture firms and construction companies about their expectations for revenue growth in 2019, which are more mitigated.

With these trends, the studies and in-depth dives of 2017, 2018, 2019 construction and architectural projects, construction companies and architectural firms must make the right decisions in order to build effective facilities this year.

Mr Alshamsi said: “5G is a new piece of technology that can revolutionise new industry. It is not only about speed but yes it will be phenomenal for VR and AR experiences.

“5G is a fundamental tool that will benefit cities, countries, factories and refineries because 5G is the cornerstone for industry and key for the future of digital.

“To make the most of what 5G can offer, it is all about collaboration and innovation. This will not happen by just sitting down in the office. We have to connect our minds together and have to experiment. We can do anything if we have the will,” said Mr Alshamsi.

EMPOWERING TODAY’S ENTREPRENEURS TO SOLVE TOMORROW’S PROBLEMS As well as bringing together key figures from the energy sector, World Energy Congress also supports and inspires the leaders, innovators and thinkers of tomorrow.

The session ‘Start-up Energy Transition: The power of the bold’ saw a panel of experts, among them the winners of this year’s Start up Energy Transition Award, debate, discuss and predict the most pressing energy challenges the world will face in years to come.

MIDDLE EAST NEWS

Ten Innovativev Solutions of Social Incubator Program in Abu Dhabi Rewarded AED 4.4 Million Investment to Support People of Determination Ma’an announced today the ten winning teams in the first cycle of the Ma’an Social Incubator program.

Ma’an is part of the ‘Ghadan 21’ accelerated development programme designed to spur diversity and growth in Abu Dhabi’s economy to make it one of the best places in the world to do business, invest, live, work and visit.

The winning projects include a mobile app that helps convert text to sign language and another that helps people with visual impairments to navigate their surroundings through sensors and visual recognition. Among the winners of this year’s edition, six teams were local, while four teams were international.

The event this morning announcing the ten winning projects was attended by His Excellency Sheikh Abdulla Bin Mohamed Al Hamed, Chairman of Department of Health; His Excellency Dr. Mugheer Khamis Al Khaili, Chairman of the Department of Community Development; His Excellency Abdullah Abdulali 58

Al Humaidan, Secretary General of Zayed Higher Organization for People of Determination; His Excellency Hamad Al Dhaheri, Director General of the Social Support Authority; and Her Excellency Salama Al Amimi, Director General, Authority of Social Contribution - Ma’an.

The Ma’an Social Incubator program is the first of its kind in the region, with each of the ten teams eligible to receive funding up to AED 200,000 released at every successful milestone the participant reaches, as well as support for living and housing expenses for non-residents of Abu Dhabi.

The program aims to support and develop innovative social concepts and start-up projects so they may become social institutions or civil facilities with an active role in helping people of determination in facing challenges in their communities, offering them solutions that improve their quality of life and achieve their ambitions.

The Ma’an Social Incubator program also provides the necessary and specialized support needed

for these projects to be sustainable, offering the guidance and tools needed for growth, including financial and moral support, as well as office space, business expertise and access to possible investors.

Since launching the program in May earlier this year, 130 ventures applied for the Ma’an Social Incubator program from as far afield as Brazil, Denmark, France, Nigeria and India.

Later in August, a shortlist of 25 nominated teams were invited to pitch their solutions before a panel who came together to decide on the final ten winning teams.

The teams will have the opportunity to test their social start-up ideas and gain an in-depth understanding of the market, in addition to attending a series of plenary workshops and receiving mentor advice that will help them develop their idea into a product or service, beginning in September and continuing for 16 weeks.

Ma’an was established in February 2019 by the Department of Community Development in Abu Dhabi with the aim of bringing together the government, the private sector and civil society to support a culture of social contribution and participation. The authority will deliver solutions for social challenges with four main pillars of work – a Social Investment Fund, a Social Incubator Program, Community Engagement Programs and the introduction of a new type of public contracting, Social Impact Bonds.

Ma’an seeks to reinforce the culture of giving in Abu Dhabi, and establish the volunteering needs of the community, aiming to make us of the currently available social volunteering opportunities and initiatives, as well as contribute by generating new opportunities.

Her Excellency Ms. Salama Al Ameemi, Director General of Ma’an said: “We are absolutely delighted with the incredibly innovative ten solutions that have been awarded a place in the Ma’an Social Incubator program, and are now fully focused on helping the entrepreneurs to make their dream become a reality.

“These social start-ups will contribute towards establishing sustainable social solutions for people of determination and raising their standard of living in Abu Dhabi and the UAE in general,

with an ambition for global impact in the future.

This is a hugely important phase in our first incubator program, and we are very much looking forward to working with the committed and passionate people leading each of the start-ups, making their concepts and projects a reality.”

The program offers unique and valuable networking opportunities for the teams to build relationships with individuals outside of the program, including investors, third sector leaders, industry figures, and decision makers in specialized fields regionally and internationally. Ma’an will also host ‘demo days’ to present the concepts of the ten winning team organised for review and evaluation, as well as to leverage funding from investors.

The 10 successful start-ups are: 1. Accessible Ad: Platform for information, expertise, training and support to ensure effective accessibility for People of Determination in Abu Dhabi 2.

12V Waterproof Actuator One of the distinctive advantages of the waterproof linear actuators is undoubtedly their simple design

increases the resistance of the product to disadvantageous factors.

Waterproof electric linear actuators of Progressive Automations manufacturer can be used for the various types of sea works. This can be a shipbuilding industry where this technology may come in handy for the construction of automated boat hatches that of military submarines where they can be responsible for the pressure control which is essential for the submarines’ operability. There are three basic types of water protection: • IP54 – provides protection against water splashes penetration from all sides; • IP65 – prevents the penetration of water flows inside the case at any possible angle; • IP67 – with such protection the device is capable to function when fully submerged under the water.

E

lectric linear actuators are the mechanisms, the core task of which is the transfer of force from the control device to the executive one. Linear actuators vary in the way they transfer their energy. At the same time, the object controlled can be driven by a rotational or linear motion action.

One of the distinctive advantages of the waterproof linear actuators is undoubtedly their simple design. Due to this, actuators have an impressively long-lasting life service, in addition, they do not require regular maintenance and are unpretentious to the conditions. Simple execution allows using devices even in unfavorable climatic conditions. Depending on the manufacturer, models may have additional protection that

66

For example, PA-06 linear actuator model of Progressive Automations has the IP67 water protection meaning that this device is really capable to function even when fully submerged into the water and even when being at a significant depth. The minimum technical specifications of such waterproof electric linear actuator are the following: stroke – 2 inches, force – 22 Ibs, speed – 1.38 inches/sec, whereas the maximum technical specifications are like this: stroke – 24 inches, force – 180 Ibs, speed – 0.47 inches/sec.

Customers can choose technical specifications so that they could adjust their waterproof linear actuators according to the needs of performance wanted. The PA-06 electric linear actuator of Progressive Automations is capable of working under the harshest conditions and withstand water, and other potentially unwanted liquids, however for short periods of time.

This high-rated quality makes this kind of electric linear actuators to be the most popular choice for marine engineering. Such actuators

are capable to work within -20 to +60 °C temperature window. The warranty covering this electric actuator lasts for 18 months since the purchase. This linear actuator is mounted with the help of BRK-06 mounting brackets that make the installation process extremely easy.

Furthermore, this kind of electric actuators is compatible with a whole range of control systems and control boxes transforming the operation process into a pleasure. Control boxes allow installing electric linear actuators of high water protection merely everywhere if dimensions are suitable for their installation.

Actuators of Progressive Automations all-thetime provide the most effective performance while at the same time they are always reliable. These actuators can easily undergo

the most terrific weather conditions and prove themselves to be the best solution where other alike technologies feel themselves uncomfortable and present poor performance.

During long-lasting periods of work under heavy workloads such actuators of Progressive Automations show the highest resistance towards harsh environment conditions. Such type of electric linear actuators can be easily adjusted for various types of work more or less associated with serious humidity and marine implementation. Preferring the waterproof actuators of Progressive Automations customers make their investment into the qualitative and long-lasting technology that will fully justify their expectations.

Is Your Cyber Prevention Plan Up To Date?

C

yber defences need continuous development. Even the latest cyber protection strategies will have limited lifespans, and cyberprotection obsolescence is a common issue when it comes to protecting a business.

The latest updates to your malware and password protection systems will not remain effective if they are not regularly checked to make sure that they remain up to date, and able to tackle the latest cybercrime trends. With new threats emerging regularly, keeping one step ahead of cybercriminals means ensuring that your cyber defenses are as up to date as possible, and that means being aware of the latest

70

threats and how to protect your business from them.

Team Awareness The weakest point of any defence strategy is always going to be people. That’s why you need to ensure that you develop a strong culture of security within your business. Enforcing a solid and robust security process is vital if you want to keep your customers, staff, and business safe. Make sure that your team is aware of: • Your defense architecture • Security protocols • Basic security standards Keep these measures updated, and you will be better able to

protect yourself from threat.

Updated Software and Hardware Hackers are always looking for an exploitable weakness that they can make use of. That’s why you need to keep your software and hardware updated as much as possible. Those updates are generally designed to deal with specific new threats, so failing to update means that you are exposed to unnecessary risk.

Endpoint management is being used by more companies than ever, as it allows for faster recognition of threats from a zero-day standpoint.

Cost-effective and automated endpoint management using recognized tools like McAfee can go a long way to keeping your business safer.

Protecting Code

Network Monitoring

Open source code is fast becoming a necessity. This is because demands on developers are too fast for software development to keep up with.

Unfortunately, open-source code comes with a variety of challenges in terms of both security and compliance. If your business makes use of open source code, then you need to make certain that you have the available resources and manpower needed to review that code for bugs, licensing issues, and security risks. Failing to do so means exposing yourself to the potential harm caused by allowing malicious actors into your software.

All of the data that your company processes needs to be stringently monitored at all times. It is only through regular monitoring that you will be able to identify the procedures and patterns of safe behavior. This monitoring can be automated with a Security Information and Event management system, but the human element of this monitoring should not be overlooked. Privilege management in terms of access to data is a key element of network monitoring, so segmentation of those privileges is not just an option to consider but a vital necessity in the digital age.

There are just as many ways to protect a business as there are to cause it harm. This means ensuring that your security processes are as tight as possible and get ongoing evaluations.

When hackers take advantage of both technological and human weaknesses to gain access to the inner workings of a business, the consequences can be devastating.

Food for Thought: These Foods Will Keep You More Focused and Alert at Work The average workday doesn’t just start at 8 and end at 5. It starts long before that with waking up, getting ready, getting out the door, commuting and then it ends in reverse. Staying sharp and focused can be a real struggle for many people, especially engineers. In this article, we’ll show you how to keep your edge all day long no matter what profession you’re in.

Start the Day off Right This does not mean the sugar-laden coffee drinks or the donut cart at the office. It means high protein and nutrient-loaded. Even if you have to grab-and-go something, make it something real and not processed. Eggs, even hard-boiled, are a fast, portable way to get charged without an eventual crash. Pre-packaged portions of cheese are great, too! Keep them in the fridge and grab a few before you head out. Keep some bottled water in there to avoid that detour to the coffee joint. Your brain will thank you later!

74

Mid-Morning Munchies They’re a real thing, aren’t they? Control the urge to reach for yet another cup of coffee and the box of Danish in the breakroom. Keep some nuts or trail mix or some power bars and re-fuel! This is a good time to indulge in some healthy fats like avocados or cheese as well!

Lunch is Not Dinner Whether or not your job requires you to be a desk jockey or a real jockey, lunch isn’t an all-you-can-eat at the trough event. Work potlucks and birthday celebrations can be fun, but they are often heavy on conveniences like chips and dip and greasy, carbohydrate-laden casseroles. Not to mention every kind of cookie and that overly frosted birthday cake. Just remind yourself that getting seconds (or thirds) will leave you hibernating under your desk before you know it!

Bring your own food, opting for proteins like chicken, tuna, or even last night’s leftover grilled salmon. Cooking at home using appliances like an electric grill helps to curb the bad fats in your meal and they also taste pretty great too!

If you can, sneak away and take a walk outside. Regardless of the weather, a brisk walk to get some fresh air in your lungs can power you through the day!

The Dreaded Slump Here you are at 3 PM with two hours to go and everything on your desk reads like a foreign language. Resist the temptation to spike your

If that doesn’t perk you up, grab the kinds of snacks that will keep you alert without the inevitable crash of processed foods and beverages.

However, if you must treat yourself, a small microwave bag of popcorn will do in a pinch. So will a few squares of dark chocolate (70 to 85% cocoa). In fact, studies prove that not only does high-quality dark chocolate do wonders for your brain, but dark chocolate has been proven to improve memory and cognitive skills. It’s a win-win, not only for your focus but your attitude – which your coworkers will appreciate!

To Sum Up Regardless of your career ‘lifestyle’, it’s important to be mindful of what you are eating and drinking throughout the workday. Whether you sit at a desk or behind the wheel, work can be stressful.

Coworkers can be stressful. But fueling your body with the right foods can keep you performing like the Rockstar your boss thinks you are!
