Australian Navy transport new battleship using one of the superships of Dockwise - Aug 2012

You Floated My Battleship! The Superships That Carry Superloads
When the weighty problem of transporting superloads around the world arises, a bulky breed of superships are ready to take up the challenge.
But rather than standard cargo containers, these vessels are capable of floating unimaginable loads including full oil rigs, multiple nuclear-powered submarines and, in one epic voyage, 18 barges from China to the Netherlands.
Currently, the Australian Navy are employing the services of Netherlands-based shipping company Dockwise's MV Blue Marlin, the largest cargo transport ship in the world.
The ship is transporting the first of two aircraft carrier hulls from Spain to Melbourne.
The Australian Landing Helicopter Dock (ALHD) Canberra is the first to commence the 12,000 nautical mile voyage around the Cape of Good Hope, estimated to be completed in 45 days after setting off on 20 August from Punta Langosteira, a new large port just south of La Coruna, northern Spain.
Spanish company Navantia has completed construction of the ships from the keel to the flight deck, and now the hulls are being transported for completion by BAE Systems Australia. The second hull, the ALHD Adelaide, will be transported in early 2014.
Blue Marlin is more than up to the task, being 712ft in length, larger than two football pitches, 138ft deep and able to carry 75,000 tonnes. That said, the ALHD Canberra is so large it overhangs the Blue Marlin deck by 180ft.
Blue Marlin's load capability also meant it was the ship of choice for the U.S. Navy when they had to transport the stricken destroyer USS Cole back to the United States after the warship was damaged by an Al-Qaeda suicide bomber attack while anchored in the port of Aden, Yemen.
The Blue Marlin is manned by a 24 crew and is powered by 17,000 horsep...

Architect builds house using parts from a Boeing 747 jumbo jet, California, America - 28 Jul 2011
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Laura Doss/Carson Leh/Solent / Rex Features ( 1396030f )
A Plane House
An architect is flying high after building a new house - out of a Boeing 747 jumbo jet.
David Hertz bought the plane for its scrap value of GBP 21,600 and dismantled it to recycle the parts.
He turned the wings into a roof, part of the fuselage and windows into a room divider and the front engine cover into a fountain pool in the garden.
Meanwhile, a meditation pavilion at the 55-acre home in California is made from the nose cone and cockpit.
Other small outbuildings - such as a barn and caretaker's house - use the remaining fuselage and upper shell of the first class mezzanine.
David is now "happy with the project in its entirety."
The only part of the plane that has not been used is the mid-section where the landing gear is stored.
The property is owned by an elderly woman who owns Mercedes-Benz dealerships in the state.
David, of David Hertz Architects and Studio of Environmental Architecture, had to buy the whole plane so decided to make use of all its parts.
He said: "I first thought about using an airplane wing while I was stood on the project site and imagined a floating curved roof.
"I drew a sketch that showed an elliptical roof section, which reminded me of a flow diagram of an airplane wing.
"At first, I thought about trying to construct a wing shaped roof, and then it occurred to me - 'Why not just use a wing?'
"The client suggested we visit an airplane to see what it might look like because we rarely get up close to airplanes.
"Once she saw the curves of the craft up close she became increasingly enthusiastic about the concept.
"The initial idea was to use the wings of the 747 for the roofs.
"But we had to purchase the entire 747 and would have been left with just the fuselage section left, so decided to digest the entir...

The inside of the tower sections are cleaned and internal ladders attached before construction, Construction of wind turbines is easiest from October to March when desert wind speeds are low. If climatic conditions are right, a single turbine can be built in 24 hours
The Suzlon Wind Turbine
As the world looks towards greener methods of energy production, rapidly developing countries like India and China are forced to negotiate the fine balance between environment and progress.
Given its natural environment, India is well positioned to exploit natural energy in a big way; the rivers of the Himalayas gave birth to a long history with hydroelectric power - the first station being built in the foothills of the Himalayas in Dharamsala in 1906.
With the absence of carbon dioxide emissions, HEP is considered to be a relatively green generation method and it now accounts for over one fifth of the total energy production in India.
But in the last decade, the efforts are shifting towards wind and solar energy - becoming increasingly ethically preferable despite their high cost and often small scale of operation.
Of the two, wind energy is proven, scalable, advanced, and easy to install quickly, something that India is taking full advantage of. While the US is the world's largest producer of wind energy with 21% of the global 121 Gigawatt output, India is now the largest producer in Asia, having recently overtaken China.
The Indian government is enthusiastically supporting renewable energy development. This effort is critical to India's energy security, given that over 30% of its export revenue is spent on imported oil and petroleum products.
Suzlon Energy is an Indian company established in 1995 that has taken full advantage of the industry and market trends.
The company's founder, Tulsi Tanti,...

The inside of the tower sections are cleaned and internal ladders attached before construction, Construction of wind turbines is easiest from October to March when desert wind speeds are low. If climatic conditions are right, a single turbine can be built in 24 hours
The Suzlon Wind Turbine
As the world looks towards greener methods of energy production, rapidly developing countries like India and China are forced to negotiate the fine balance between environment and progress.
Given its natural environment, India is well positioned to exploit natural energy in a big way; the rivers of the Himalayas gave birth to a long history with hydroelectric power - the first station being built in the foothills of the Himalayas in Dharamsala in 1906.
With the absence of carbon dioxide emissions, HEP is considered to be a relatively green generation method and it now accounts for over one fifth of the total energy production in India.
But in the last decade, the efforts are shifting towards wind and solar energy - becoming increasingly ethically preferable despite their high cost and often small scale of operation.
Of the two, wind energy is proven, scalable, advanced, and easy to install quickly, something that India is taking full advantage of. While the US is the world's largest producer of wind energy with 21% of the global 121 Gigawatt output, India is now the largest producer in Asia, having recently overtaken China.
The Indian government is enthusiastically supporting renewable energy development. This effort is critical to India's energy security, given that over 30% of its export revenue is spent on imported oil and petroleum products.
Suzlon Energy is an Indian company established in 1995 that has taken full advantage of the industry and market trends.
The company's founder, Tulsi Tanti,...
