COREN Vice President Leads Delegation on Courtesy Visit to Lagostar Wire and Cable The Vice President of COREN, Engr. Olaolu Ogunduyile, FNSE, FNIEEE, today, 12th May 2026, led a delegation on a courtesy visit to Lagostar Wire and Cable in Lagos. The visit formed part of COREN’s ongoing public sensitization drive on its regulatory mandates and efforts to promote the forthcoming 34th COREN Engineering Assembly, scheduled to hold from 13th–15th July 2026 at the Moshood Abiola National Stadium, Abuja. Discussions also focused on strengthening collaboration with industry stakeholders towards advancing professionalism, compliance, and sustainable engineering practice in Nigeria. #COREN #34thCORENEngineeringAssembly #EngineeringRegulation #ProfessionalCompliance #EngineeringPractice #Abuja #Lagos

Surveying is often not the most visible part of a project; but it is one of the most critical foundations beneath everything that gets built. Before construction, excavation, or installation begins, surveying defines where everything should go. That includes position, alignment, elevation, boundaries, and control. If these are wrong at the start, every activity that follows is built on unstable information. That is why surveying plays a direct role in preventing project failure. One of its biggest contributions is accuracy control. Surveying ensures that designs are correctly transferred to the field. Without this, even a well-designed project can be constructed in the wrong location or at the wrong level. Surveying also prevents cumulative errors. Small mistakes in positioning or alignment may not seem serious at first. But as work progresses, they grow. Surveying identifies and corrects these issues early before they develop into major structural or operational problems. It also supports coordination between teams. Engineers, contractors, and site workers all depend on survey data to stay aligned with the same reference points. When survey control is strong, communication becomes clearer and decisions become more reliable. Another key role is verification. Surveying is used to confirm that completed work matches design specifications. This reduces the risk of hidden defects, misalignment, or incorrect construction going unnoticed. Surveying also helps manage risk in changing site conditions. Ground levels shift. Excavation progresses. Structures evolve. Continuous surveying ensures that the project remains within safe and intended limits throughout its lifecycle. When surveying is weak or ignored, problems often appear later in the project; when correction becomes expensive, time-consuming, or sometimes impossible without major rework. Here is the deeper truth: Many project failures do not start during construction. They start when spatial accuracy is assumed instead of verified. Surveying does not prevent all challenges in a project; but it prevents avoidable structural and positional errors, which are among the most costly types of failure. In simple terms, it acts as the project's reality check from beginning to end. So here's something to think about: When a project succeeds or fails, are we giving enough importance to the accuracy that guides every stage, or only noticing surveying when something has already gone wrong? #Surveying #Construction #ProjectManagement #EngineeringPractice #SiteControl

Concrete quality is decided during the pour. Proper vibration removes air, strengthens bonding, and prevents hidden failures. Fundamentals matter. #ConcreteWork #StructuralEngineering #ConstructionQuality #EngineeringPractice #QualityControl

HTTPZ Design Trade-offs and Robustness in Weak Networks Goal: Distrust any intermediate layer by default; Identity → Handshake → Key → Session → Access Control: A single link with minimal forks; First Principle in Weak Networks: Handshakes should be as short as possible, failures should be addressed as early as possible; Replay Resistance: Introducing one-time tickets and time window verification; Degradation Resistance: Explicitly rejecting insecure suites and versions; Key Rotation: Based on session boundaries, forced rotation triggered by anomalies; Observation: Visualizing handshake/failure metrics; Noise Reduction: Differentiating between "intermittent network" and "configuration errors" error codes; Backward Compatibility: Retaining common proxy/gateway paths; Unresolved Issues: Large timezone drift, unstable time sources on some devices—added to the next iteration list. #ZeroTrust #EngineeringPractice

During low-traffic stress testing, we focused on three extreme scenarios: Cross-region state synchronization spikes Brief jitter in the evidence path Asynchronous LRT metadata updates Corresponding strategies: Peak shaving, valley filling, retries and fallbacks, and idempotent writeback.
