Royal Haskoning has put together a team of 6 electrical, civil and coastal engineers, as well as a couple of environmental scientists for good measure, who are all set for PECT’s scrapheap challenge!
After batting several very different ideas around the table, we settled on one which we believe to be the winner - which of course we couldn’t possibly reveal at this stage!
We sketched out the details and compiled our materials wish list, then headed straight for the scrap yard. The team got off to a flying start and by the end of the day had collected the majority of items, including the ‘backbone’ of the design.
Unfortunately the pace slowed during the first build session when it was discovered the ‘heart’ of the operation was in fact broken. So another trip to the scrap yard was called for, which prompted the team to adopt a ‘take all you can carry’ attitude, which understandably didn’t bode well for the car share journey back to the office.
With progress back on track and the team enthused with the quality of their design, Royal Haskoning is now looking forward to lifting the trophy!
