Facilities requiring expansion were also common wall construction, and the EHRA team converted the facilities into aerobic digesters and sludge thickeners.
EHRA designed an expansion that implemented the installation of a new triplex lift station operating in conjunction with the existing duplex lift station.
EHRA was selected as one of two firms to provide professional surveying services under contract to Houston Community College System.
EHRA assisted with the district creation of Montgomery County Municipal Utility District No. 126 to accommodate a ±329 acre master planned community located in northern Montgomery County in the City of Conroe, south of League Line Road, west of Longmire Road, and adjacent to Lake Conroe.
EHRA conducted a traffic engineering study to identify the impacts of a proposed master development located near the intersection of FM 1488 and Peoples Road in the City of Conroe.
Throughout the past few years, 3D printing has become extremely popular within the civil engineering industry. Nonetheless, the ways items are being printed are changing daily with new discoveries.
Typically, a custom part is designed and then simply printed. However, only one material can be put into a printer at once. If multiple materials can be inserted at a time, manufacturers can better control heat properties, and environmental adaptation, etc. New research will help manufactures reduce the steps and decrease to only one machine that prints all of the designs. By having all materials inserted at once, there will be no need for adhesives. This will allow for designs to be ever stronger than they already are.
"Multimaterial additive manufacturing has opened the doors to so many different possible creations,” according to Science Daily. “It has allowed us to be bolder and be more creative. This allows us to vary the composition and add functionality to a product during 3D printing that is traditionally very difficult to achieve, and we can do this in a single process with a single machine.” said Bandyopadhyay, Endowed Chair Professor in the School of Mechanical and Materials Engineering.
