  2. ÉALÚ emergency exit

    An emergency exit sign spotted in the first floor window of a building in Kinsale, Co Cork. Despite the shadows, the sign gives a clue to the internal floor plan of the building. It looks a bit out of place, but it has to be there.

    Georgian sash windows like this one were originally designed as a fire safety feature themselves. The large panes and sliding mechanism made them easy escape routes during emergencies, which is why many Georgian buildings have windows that open directly onto the street rather than requiring ladders to reach. The modern exit sign is actually continuing a 300-year-old tradition of prioritising safe evacuation!

  7. Brexitanians may complain about the direction of environmental travel in Westminster, but it's not looking good across La Manche either. There is serious pressure from Paris, Berlin and other centres to pause new green regulations in order to appease Capital.

  8. This article from The Economist indicates that strict building regulations prevent economic growth of up to 10% of the GDP. This is due to the spaces needed in cities, which are prevented from being constructed because of strict building regulations.

  9. I've published another Part O blog. This one offers advice on getting some key things right in dynamic models, including ensuring window openings are accurately modelled and on delivering the noise criteria.
