One of the most valuable tools for navigating the housing market is the ability to bookmark houses during online research and cross-reference important specifications and features (e.g., no fireplace, no deal). Buying a house is one of the most significant — and expensive — decisions most people make in their lifetimes. But for manufacturers and shop owners, the purchase of a new machine tool is just as significant, often as costly, and every bit as stressful.

Manufacturers’ Monthly explores how SQP Engineering has progressed from a sub-contract machine shop to a manufacturing solutions hub with the help of Markforged 3D printing systems. In 2006, David Miller began a small-scale jobbing shop, renting out an area within another workshop with a couple of NC lathes and a mill. Over the first few years, SQP began to establish itself via its precision-machined products for mining equipment.

The team at Northwestern University was reportedly the first to measure the effects of subsurface climate change on civil infrastructure, which they call a "silent hazard". As the ground heats up, it also deforms. This phenomenon causes building foundations and the surrounding ground to expand and contract, which could lead to cracks and undermine the longevity of urban structures.
