WELDTEQ Engineering & Manufacturing’s Post

Choosing the right materials is the foundation of any successful metalworking project! Our latest blog post breaks down how to select materials that deliver durability, efficiency, and the performance your project demands, whether it’s a small fabrication or a large-scale build. Not only do we have the tools and expertise to bring your vision to life, but we also offer artistic advice on key considerations like material design. We've done everything from corten steel towers to bronze sculptures and beyond. That’s why we created this blog to guide you through the basics of material selection. https://lnkd.in/grV8HtDq #metalworking #engineering

#AmazingScience: #Tensegrity, anti-gravity sculpture 🤯 🤩 ‼️ Despite the invisible, everything is possible. You too you can change the world, you just need to believe in yourself just a little stronger 💪‼️ They did not know it was impossible so they did it - #MarkTwain Quotes. #Tensegrity is a structural principle based on a system of isolated components under compression inside a network of continuous tension, and arranged in such a way that the compressed members (usually bars or struts) do not touch each other while the prestressed tensioned members (usually cables or tendons) delineate the system spatially. The term tensegrity was coined in 1949 by Richard Buckminster Fuller, an American architect and designer. It is initially an idea, or rather a dream, that Buckminster Fuller will turn into a concept: that of an architectural organization combining “islands of compression in an ocean of tension.” Contracting the two words “tensile” and “integrity”, which reflect an integral and integrated tension, he calls this concept “tensegrity” Florian Palatini Christine Raibaldi Lefebvre Renald Ken Kuang Eric Ferdel

Art, architecture, and pictures are human expression and creativity. Art, in various forms like painting, sculpture, and performance, has been a vital means of communication throughout history. Architecture, beyond mere functionality, reflects cultural, social, and artistic values. Both art and architecture stem from the human desire to create and shape surroundings. Pictures, including photography, illustrations, and paintings, serve as visual representations and windows into different cultures, historical periods, and artistic styles. Together, these three elements form a powerful triad, enabling us to understand and appreciate human civilization's diverse aspects. They help us connect with the past, engage in the present, and envision the future. Art, architecture, and pictures are integral components of our shared cultural heritage, inspiring, educating, and challenging us to explore human experience and imagination. Cultivating appreciation for these artistic expressions fosters a more empathetic, creative, and enlightened society. space resonance in shape. Picture space : Yaba Bus-stop LAMATA-NG

✨ Finding Creativity in Every Challenge ✨ Working in the precast concrete industry has taught me something beautiful about life: just like concrete, even the toughest challenges can be shaped into something extraordinary with creativity, patience, and the right approach. At Sanderson Concrete, I’ve seen how vision and teamwork transform raw materials into art and purpose—structures that enrich our communities. It’s a powerful reminder that no matter how hard or unyielding something seems, there’s always the potential to create, innovate, and build something meaningful. Every project, like every challenge in life, is an opportunity to grow and bring ideas to life. 💡💪 #LifeLessons #CreativityInChallenges #ProfessionalGrowth #ConcreteCraftsmanship #BuildingPossibilities

Architectural concrete has a twin existence. On the one hand, it is a massive, structural material used to build forms that house people and institutions. On the other hand, it is also a medium of artistic expression. When adorned with sculpture or carving, the building art form is at its more potent up close. From a distance, the art fades in the strong August sun; up close, it comes alive in the play of light and shadow on the building's surface, subtleties that are lost in the flatness of an image, a result of a photograph's chemical reaction to light and time.
