I voted for Civil Engineering : Types of Bridges on Lego Ideas! I'd love to see this made- both for #STEM education and my personal collection! https://t.co/h3G9VBgshv

Let's celebrate International Women in Engineering Day! #INWED23 @INWED1919

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

A very different day at work! @AmeyLtd offers staff paid "Social Impact Days" to volunteer; my colleague organised for us to help at Heatree activity centre, hauling rotting leaves from an old swimming pool and clearing invasive laurel. A beautiful Dartmoor day & a lot of fun!

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

Quick snap of phone lines in the early morning light as I head to Okehampton station to catch the Dartmoor Line train to my new bridge design job at Amey Consulting in Exeter. Civil Engineering infrastructure everywhere! Well, not on the moon... yet!

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

Excited to have started at Amey Consulting in a new role as Structures Technical Manager! I will be heading up a great team of engineers and technicians in Exeter, delivering structures design work for @NationalHways as part of the South West Scheme Delivery Framework. @AmeyLtd

@THQNordic please could you fix the bug with the Gluttony boss fight in Darksiders 3 on Stadia. It prevents phase 2 of the fight working properly. I'd love to be able to finish the game, it's great. Cheers!

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

Trying out the newly opened #Okehampton line, spot of work on the train wifi as I whizz through the #Devon countryside towards Exeter. Smooth process so far! Good to see #civilengineering infrastructure reducing congestion and C02 emissions. Thanks @GWRHelp and @networkrail

@ncedigital for an article entitled "How artwork inspired the reinstated bridges at the National Botanic Garden of Wales" I sure was expecting to see some more photos of the bridges and the artwork - where are the visuals? https://t.co/AISzDLfz0t

@BillHarvey2 Sorry to hear that Bill, I hope your oncologist is wrong.

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

Looking forward to this @IStructE @cross_safety presentation on the fatal 2018 Florida International University bridge collapse, and the lessons learnt. I anticipate cautionary tales for all of us in the industry!

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

So it's about farm safety but could apply equally to busy folks on a construction site. Recommend you take a minute to listen to this short poem and don't miss your chance to save a life.

[National Farmers' Union @NFUtweets]

We're starting #FarmSafetyWeek with a powerful poem by Don Merrell, read by our Deputy President @HertsFarmer.

Listening to @99piorg Ep 432 "The Batman & the Bridge Builder" - brought to mind the bat roosts I designed into the modified Countess Wear Bridge in Exeter; infrastructure should work with ecology, not against it! Podcast: https://t.co/pwaKWn7fyS Bridge: https://t.co/Z4KxTCver6

Happy International Women in Engineering Day #INWED21 ! I was delighted to be able sponsor my colleague Beth's application to @ICE_engineers for the grade of Engineering Technician, earlier this week; she's very capable and has a bright career in engineering ahead of her!

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

Well it seems structurally sound, thanks to expert baking by @AlmaMartyr, just needs decoration now! Proud of my daughter for doing the draughting work accurately :) #gingerbreadengineering #Christmas

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

Bit of festive Sunday engineering; helping my daughter design templates for a gingerbread house using orthographic sketching principles. The roof is sized for the baked wall thickness and a small overhang. #mydayengineering #stem #Christmas2020

@NordicTrackUK Thank you!

[Luke Walker CEng MICE @CivilPengineer]

@NordicTrackUK hi, what type of heart rate monitor is compatible with the computer on my GX 8.0 spin bike? Can't find the answer in the manual or online. Thanks!
