In this edition we're showcasing 3D models by Hardings Security Fencing, Engineered Plastics, Inc., and Eco-Rain Tank Systems of America. We've also gathered projects from Livin the Dog Life, Mapes Industries, Inc., Robinson Iron, Waste Wise Products Inc., and Eco-Wares.

3D Model Highlights

Hardings Security Fencing - Fence Panel

Forte palisade security fencing is one of the most popular types of security fencing in use today. This is due to the fact that it is a very effective deterrent to would-be thieves and trespassers. 

Our security forte palisade fences have proven themselves in both private, and public sectors.

Engineered Plastics, Inc - Surface Applied Warning Tiles

Surface Applied Tiles are the solution of choice for public rights of way and snow plow resistant detectable warning tiles requiring an upgrade to meet ADA requirements.

Eco-Rain Tank Systems of America - Eco-Rain Tanks

Eco-Rain Tanks are underground modular products certified by the International Code Council (ICC) an independent organization, to meet Industry standards - designed to accept and hold rain and runoff water for infiltration into the substrate, detention for controlled release, or for water reuse as a cistern. Eco-Rain Tank basins are used under parking lots, and landscaped areas.

Robinson Iron - Raffles Hotel

As Robinson Iron’s first international project, the restoration of ironwork on the 1887 Raffles Hotel located on the island nation of Singapore, required extensive rendering of the ornament, sculpting clay originals and developing detail drawings. The only existing original ironwork remaining was a fragment of railing embedded in a stucco wall.

Waste Wise Products Inc. - A Case Study in Recycling Bins

The study found that there were, even more, benefits of providing more recycling receptacles than just less trash in landfills. Some of these benefits included less littering around campus and decreased residential energy use. These positive behaviors displayed by the student body and faculty on campus helped the environment by not only reducing material waste but by reducing energy waste as well.

Eco-Wares - Tippecanoe County Bridge Project

The Tippecanoe County Highway Department began looking for a product to help preserve its concrete bridges. Located in the freeze/thaw zone of the U.S., Indiana's winter-month temperatures can fluctuate daily above and below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. If rain falls during the warmer part of the day, it gets absorbed into the concrete. Yet as he water freezes in the pores overnight, it expands about 9 percent and begins to product pressure in the concrete. Once the pressure exceeds the tensile strength of the concrete, it will cause expansion, cracking and crumbling of the concrete over many freeze/thaw cycles. View the project here.
