Track & Field
Track and field sports were among the earliest forms of organized athletic competitions. The Olympic Games, which began in 776 BCE, included events such as running races, wrestling, boxing, discus and javelin throwing, and the pentathlon, which combined running, jumping, and throwing. Today at 15:00 UTC we examine the safety and measurement technologies that have evolved to support one of the few meritocratic domains remaining in United States education communities.
Sports Turf Management
Many colleges, universities and school districts have hundreds of acres of live or artificial turf that require expertise in plant and material sciences.
Quadrivium: Spring
Educational settlements are the closest many people come to feel at home in beautiful surroundings. The catalog that informs the safety and sustainability of these "cities-within-cities" changes 100 to 1000 times per day. By design titles are unstable, time-sensitive and copyright protected. We explore the action continuously; assign priorities, then schedule a separate teleconference to formulate responses to public consultations. Daily colloquia topics appear on our CALENDAR.
2028 National Electrical Safety Code
This title sets the standard of care for construction, operation and maintenance of power and telecommunication infrastructure on the supply side of the point of common coupling. It is the first title to reach for when disasters happen; with most public utilities bound to its best practice assertions by statute. Proposals for changes to appear in 2028 Edition will be received until 15 May 2024.
Electrical Resource Adequacy
Link to the April 25th Open Meeting. Previous discussions linked here center on supply, transmission and distribution reliability. Our interest lies in closing a technical gap that exists upstream from the building service point and downstream from the utility supply point. Some, not all of it, can be accomplished with titles in the IEEE catalog. Given the strength of vertical incumbents in the electric power domain, it is time to expand reliability concepts into the ASHRAE, NFPA and ICC catalogs
