Crossrail's ambitious engineering project has become a hotbed of construction innovation. It has pioneered the use of new technologies like drones, BIM, tablets, and sensors to improve efficiency and safety. Through its Innovate18 program, Crossrail funded over 63 trials of innovative ideas and technologies, creating an £800,000 innovation fund. This has accelerated the adoption of technologies like augmented reality smart helmets, wireless sensors, GoPro cameras, and pico projectors across the construction industry. Many innovations tested on Liverpool Street station, like drones for inspections and small projectors for on-site updates, have provided significant time and cost savings.

"The 2015 Paris Agreement to curb global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to limit climate change to a global average temperature increase of below 2°C emphasizes the need to reduce GHG emissions. To reach this long-term target, energy consumption and GHG emissions must be reduced drastically in all sectors in the next decades. European countries have jointly been among the first signatories of the Paris Agreement and have committed to reducing domestic GHG emissions by at least 40% compared to 1990 levels by 2030. In European countries, the residential and commercial building stock accounts for approximately 36% of total GHG emissions. A substantial share of these buildings is older than 50 years. Accordingly, these buildings are often not very energy-efficient and are equipped with fossil fuel-based heating systems in many parts of Europe. The current efforts – political, technological and societal – have not led the European building stock into a carbon-neutral future. The speech will touch upon the reasons for this unsatisfactory development and suggest necessary steps towards a low-carbon future by taking advantage of international good practices and findings in research."

Challenges opportunities and way forward in making indian cities and citizens...ANIRBAN CHOUDHURY
This was presented by me during Panel Discussions on Captioned Topic during IoT India Congress – 2016 Bangalore, on 8th September 2016.
http://theiet.in/The_IET_announces_Indias_largest_conclave_on_the_Internet_of_Things%E2%80%93IoT_India_Congress_2016
It was a coincidence that during panel discussions I came across team from Deloitte and C44, instrumental in preparation of NTK's winning Smart City Proposal. For me it was one of the happiest moment for being in the same panel with current mentors, as I was involved with the NTK project from pre-takeoff to maturity stage.
In the captioned presentation I have highlighted the fact that NTK was designed with resiliant features, especially AA-1 of NTK and also how the AA-1D was made LEED Traditional Neighborhood Design compliant more than 1/2 a decade before it was formalized by USGBC, NRF & CNU. I have highlighted the salient features namely
(1) hierarchy of built & open spaces; habitats starting from neighborhoods- community -Towns with distinct boundary have been planned; socio-economic infrastructure has been planned in early 2000 that even fulfill the changed requirements of NBC2005 and UDPFI 2015. ;
(2) Though the city has been planned for inclusion of all class, creed & castes of the society, AA-1D has been designed for a well-diversified population (housing option) such that the SIMPSON Diversity index > 0.75.
(3) The hierarchy of roads and surface drainage were designed in such a way that it's having an inversely proportional relationship.
All the above resilience features were designed and built in the early 2000, 1/2 decade before Draft LEED TND of USGBC was published after 2005.
The structure of AA1D was designed to be resilient as it was meant to promote (a) Compact densification; (b) Scaling of a Traditional neighbourhood; (c) Fine Grain diversity
I have also highlighted the fact that what we have done in (terms of TND design) more than 1.5 decades back in the year 2000-01, is being replicated now as a Brownfeild Retrofit by Global Smart City Barcelona through creation of SMART SUPER BLOCKS ( we were ahead of time).
Also refer to linked-in posting " GREENFIELD URBAN RETROFIT - INSPIRED BY TRADITIONAL NEIGHBORHOOD DESIGN & URBAN PATTERN" for the story behind Smart Retrofit done by me for Action Area 1D in the year 2001.

Smart city proposal citizens initiative for smart portblair - final lite verANIRBAN CHOUDHURY
It is a citizens effort in participatory panning of his city. The idea behind / goal of CITIZENS INITIATIVE FOR SMART CITY PORT BLAIR is to
Practice participatory planning. What we have achieved is that we are able to demonstrate that its possible using new communication modes & tools like facebook; Though there was a will among the coordinator, members of group and PBMC officials, it could not happen in a desired way due to lack of quality internet connectivity.
Change the focus from conventional development models and move towards THIRD INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION COMPLIANT ECONOMY. You will find the SMART CITY PROPOSAL - Citizens Initiative's objective in synergy with TIR Compliance. It would also fulfill additional agenda of MOUD; Govt of India.
Highlight the fact that there is a need to have customized solution, we cannot be taken for granted for ever. It cannot be a COPY-PASTE job. When a foreign company starts work in India, it either spends years before establishing or takes an Indian partner / hires Indians. Unfortunately in case of consultants working in the islands, neither they spend time to get a feel of the place nor do they spend money to hire local resources.
SMART RETROFIT FOR AN UNSMART BANGALORE CITY VER 15 SEPT 2015 A5ANIRBAN CHOUDHURY

(2) Solar Green House and Green Retrofits for existing PV Power Plant; Innovative projects to reduce carbon footprint of gridlinked solar PV systems and at the same time promotes food security.
(3) Solar Human Resource Capacity Building; it’s a project cum initiative that helps in guild formation of tradesmen and its operation.
(4) Neighbourhood Solid waste to power plant; Innovative project that includes reduction in ton miles of solid waste transportation; use of proven technology of smokeless incinerator (similar to CHUWASTAR), ORC Turbo Generator (proven Turboden-Mitsubishi) and absorption chiller for a Community Cold Store (using product from Broad/Thermax/Yazaki).
(5) Solar PV Modules globally competitive made @ India;Economic development initiative (Policy as well as governance).
(6) Smart City Investment Trust (SMIT); Governance initiative, SMIT is going to strengthen the position of Mayor heading it, similar to the role played by Gujarat Municipal Finance Board.
(7) Urban Morphology Studies for planned future; Studies and research – conditions precedent that needs to be fulfilled before city-wide smart city initiative takeoff.
(8) Energy Smartness - through demand side energy management studies, community smart microgrid master plans; this is job that needs to be done before before city-wide smart city initiative takes off.
(9) Smart Urban System – Virtual Health City ( based on experience of Singapore, that became a regional biotech hub within a decade. IoE applications that can evolve out of primary to tertiary health infrastructure and all stake holders in a metropolitan city has been covered) and Smart City broadband network ( similar to Goa Broadband Network)

Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

areas such as apprenticeships and procurement.
Another key area where it will have a long-lasting impact is the use of technology on site.
Drones, BIM and tablets, among other technologies, have become more common on site the
last few years, but Crossrail has been a pioneer, pushing the boundaries and adapting
already existing gadgets for construction use, while also working on new tech that will benefit
the whole built environment sector for years.

2. Street. We used normal off-the-shelf technology which hasn’t been used from a construction
point of view.”
All of the new ideas developed and tested at Liverpool Street have been made possible by
Crossrail’s innovation programme, Innovate18, which it developed with London’s Imperial
College.
The initiative involved Crossrail contacting various Tier 1 contractors in its supply chain and
asking them to not only agree to share ideas with each other, but also pay £25,000 into an
innovation fund. All the major contractors working on Crossrail, including Balfour Beatty,
Kier, BAM, Laing O’Rourke and Skanska, agreed. This created an open dialogue of ideas
and a testing ground for new innovation, but by committing funds meant that an £800,000
pool was created that could be used to develop and test new concepts.
William Reddaway, innovation programme manager at Crossrail, says: “Traditionally the
construction industry has been quite slow to pursue innovation or there have been barriers
with companies keeping their own ideas in-house.
“With Innovate18 we had all the contractors agreeing to work and develop together and
really collaborating on research and developing fresh ideas or improvements to existing
ways of working. The programme transcended contract and other boundaries and
encouraged the collective effort to succeed, and that, in turn, will help the whole construction
industry.”
He adds: “This was about legacy and understanding what technologies or solutions can
have a positive impact, not only on Crossrail, but the industry as a whole. The programme
helped share information and supported a trial if an idea had potential and had never been
used in a certain environment.”
Innovate18 has funded the trial of more than 63 ideas, ranging from drones for site surveys
to new sensors to keep people and machinery separate.
Although the programme has been wound down on Crossrail, it has been broadened into an
industry-wide model called I3P. This is the new innovation forum for the infrastructure
industry and it already has five client organisations signed up, including Crossrail, as well as
14 contractors.
The following are six innovations that have been trialled successfully at Liverpool Street
station and could have widespread impact in the industry.
3. About the project
Liverpool Street Crossrail station will open in December 2018 when services begin through
central London. Trains will terminate at Paddington in the west and Abbey Wood in the east.
Laing O’Rourke was awarded the main £300m construction contract for the project to build
two new entrances and ticket halls and platforms, creating new interchanges with the
Northern, Central, Metropolitan, Circle and Hammersmith & City Lines, as well as
connections to Stansted airport and National Rail services.
The construction of the new Liverpool Street Crossrail Station is divided up into four main
sites: Moorgate, Liverpool Street, Finsbury Circus Shaft, and Blomfield Street Shaft.
A number of physical constraints below ground at Liverpool Street made the station one of
the trickiest to thread into the urban fabric, including a maze of sewers, existing tube lines
and the Post Office Railway.
In addition, layers of the city’s history had to be revealed before much of the work could get
underway, which in total uncovered nearly 4,000 skeletons from the Bedlam burial site as
well as thousands of artefacts dating back to Roman times.
4. Smart Helmets
Among the more innovative concepts was an augmented reality (AR) smart helmet created
by a collaboration between Crossrail and technology company Soluis.
Glasgow-based Soluis was awarded £35,000 from Innovate UK to develop software that
would allow AR to be utilised on site. Over the past year the company has been working with
Crossrail to build and test an app on the Liverpool Street site that allows construction site
staff to access and upload BIM data via the smart helmet’s visor display.
Called “In-site”, the app is able to transfer information about buildings or structures from the
cloud to the helmet and then overlay it as augmented reality on workers’ visor screens.
Testing the app and the smart helmet on the site has shown how such technology could b
used in the future as the hardware becomes more common and cost effective.
UtterBerry sensors
UtterBerry, an intelligent wireless sensor system using the world’s smallest wireless sensors,
has also been developed and tested on the station site.
Developed originally by Heba Bevan, a PhD student at the Cambridge Centre for Smart
Infrastructure and Construction at the University of Cambridge, it consists of miniature, self
powered sensors placed around the site, that can carry out calculations to derive tunn
displacement in real-time without human intervention. No access is required to keep the
system running in potentially unsafe areas.

of an emergency and is poise

5. GoPro Cameras
These sturdy action cameras originally came out in 2004 and have been mostly used to
shoot sports. However, at Liverpool Street, GoPros were attached to a number of workers on
site to record their daily tasks and the resulting footage was studied to improv
working.
“We wanted to see the perspective of different workers during the day
electricians, for example, and see what they see. So this footage was recorded and then
analysed and we processed it and gave it back as a presentation
Ravi Kugananthan.
“Simple things came out of it, such as a worker wasn’t wearing long sleeves doing their job.
This has now become mandatory on all sites. It’s been hugely helpful in the area of health
and safety.”

Pico, or pocket, projectors are easy to transport, which means people can project their data
and video anywhere without being tied to power supply. Onsite presentations and updates
could be done during the project off the cuff without having to bring worke

£350. It wasn’t intended for a construction environment but that’s what we’ve used it for.

Drones
Drones have also become a vital part of the work at the new station, particularly in the
Moorgate shaft area.
As Kugananthan explains: “In Moorgate we had a number of continual inspections to do at
height. The work involved inspecting the 45

7. The work had been done manually, with engineers using mobile elevating work platforms to
video and photograph the shafts and tunnels. This was time-consuming and a potential
safety issue.
“So we bought an off-the-shelf drone — the DJI Inspire 1 — and workers were trained to use
it. We ended up using them not only for inspections but also organising logistics, providing a
record of progress and general safety inspections,” adds Kugananthan.
Noise-Cancelling Speakers
This idea originated from noise-cancelling headphones and the desire to try to make the
work environment as quiet and as disruption free as possible. The technology is based on
“inverting” sound waves to cancel out other noises as they travel through the air to the ear.
The idea is still very much in the development stage and has now been transferred over to
I3P where work is continuing.
