Hi,
I have been assigned to a new project which involves embeddeding an active solution in a pop up sponge.
The idea is that the non expanded sponge will contain the product and, when soaked with water, will expand to its full size ready for use with the product alrady in place.
Basically the...

Hi pbokhuis,
Did you successully emigrate to the U.S? If so, a few questions:
1) Did you find companies were receptive to not being legal to work at the time of interviewing?
2) Can you outline what is involved in the paperwork aspect, I have yet to fully investigate this. Did the company...
Hi,
I guess this is a follow up to my previous thread about emmigrating to the United States.
From Browsing around it looks like I'll need to be licensed if I am to practice in the U.S.
Just looking at the EIT reference manual (Professional Publications Inc.), there seems to be an amount of...
Thanks for those tips davefitz,
I now need to read up on the American tax system too it seems:)
Wow, 50% is a lot.
The tax here works out as 46% of your gross, but only after a set point (approx €35000, this is at 25% - minus tax free allowances)
Does NYC not allow a certain level to be...
Thanks for all this, its proving very helpful.
KiwiMace, I assume the PE is some kind of process engineer society exam? I'm guessing its the equivalent to chartered engineers with the iChemE in the U.K.
You mention that the EIT is a fine start, can you clarify as to what this is?
Thanks for...
From Browsing around it seems like New Jersey could be a good option.
The residence has to be in NYC (long story...).
To those familiar with that area can you suggest areas (with employment potential) within a reasonable commute from NYC?
So far I see the options as follows:
Jersey City...
Hi Milton,
Thanks for that. I'm actually located in Ireland.
Unfortunately it has to be New York (its not my choice to make). I was also looking at New Jersey in terms of jobs and there seemed to be a number of positions. I'm not sure about commutable distances etc. though.
Any general pointers...
First off apologies if this is in the Wrong section, however it seemed the most relevant to post in.
(If it should be posted elsewhere then please, direct me)
I am writing this in the hope of relocating to the United States in the coming year (aim is January 09). I'm looking for pointers etc...
Hi All,
I've been away for a while and just got to catch up with this thread again.
Well, as I said this was originally intended as a research exercise. The overwhelming response is that it's not a straightforward operation.
To do things properly it seems more economically viable to continue...
DSB123,
It's an interesting one alright.
I assumed that we are checking the mechanical contractor's(not us) work, on behalf of the User. The user would then approve and sign off our documentation (i.e. approving our supervision of the contractor). I would have thought that this may constitute...
Thanks for that UtilityLouie, its good to have ballpark figures that can translate into ballpark costs (& potential savings)
The .pcf import did sound too good to be true, I imagine hand checking the model is the only way to be certain.
I finally got the B31.3 guide today, so I'll be absorbing...
I should have mentioned above that the Mechanical Contractor would carry out the actual work (NDT etc..) and that we would inspect the work and approve the documentation, which the client would then have final approval of.
DSB123,
We would be operating on behalf of the user. In essence we would taking the place of the user for this supervision. All those items you mentioned would be covered by our piping team during the installation. I assume then that the Client Project manager would have final sign off on all...
