The government's efforts to diversify the economy and attract foreign investments have played a significant role in the rapid development of the industry. With a growing population, increasing urbanization, and a strong demand for housing, the real estate market in Saudi Arabia has become one of the most lucrative sectors for investors.

The Kingdom has implemented various initiatives and reforms to stimulate the real estate market. Vision 2030, a comprehensive plan to transform the Saudi economy, has placed a strong emphasis on developing the housing sector to meet the needs of the growing population. The plan aims to increase the rate of homeownership to 70% by 2030, which has led to a surge in construction activities and infrastructure development.

One of the key drivers of the real estate sector in Saudi Arabia is the increasing foreign investment. The government has introduced several policies to attract foreign investors, such as allowing full ownership of real estate properties in certain areas and offering incentives and tax breaks. This has resulted in a significant influx of foreign capital into the market, leading to the development of mega projects and luxurious residential communities.

Furthermore, the government has also focused on developing affordable housing solutions to cater to the needs of low-income individuals and families. Initiatives like the Sakani program have been launched to provide affordable housing units and financial support to eligible citizens.

The real estate development in Saudi Arabia is not limited to residential properties. The commercial and retail sectors have also witnessed significant growth, with the construction of modern office spaces, shopping malls, and entertainment centers. The Kingdom's ambitious plans to develop tourism and entertainment sectors have further fueled the demand for commercial properties.

In conclusion, the real estate sector in Saudi Arabia is experiencing a period of rapid growth and development. The government's initiatives, foreign investments, and the focus on affordable housing have contributed to the flourishing market. With the continuous efforts to diversify the economy and attract more investments, the real estate sector is poised to play a crucial role in the Kingdom's economic transformation.

Crisis management: how important is social media in a crisis?

Hi,

Welcome to my #2 blog post! I hope you enjoyed my previous post in which I wrote about creating your brand image and identity through social media. :)

This week, we’ll refer to crisis management. Crisis management is a part of public relations and it’s a process of dealing with some emergency situation. An important part of dealing with the crisis is social media.

Actually, when you think about it, many crises occur because organizations/companies don’t respond to the negative reviews and comments that people leave them on their social media accounts. I certainly think that a marketing team of a corporation thinks that it’s not a big deal when someone writes a rude comment about the products and services the corporation provides, so they do nothing regarding that question. And before they realize, they’re a step forward into downfall.

One good example of how to provide a customer service in an emergency is the situation when Sephora handled a crisis with the singer SZA. In April 2019, SZA tweeted that a Sephora employee called the security on her to stop her from stealing. She gained a lot of support, and people started tweeting how Sephora employees are rude and racist. Then, the official Sephora profile on twitter answered SZA’s tweet, and they let her know they are doing everything they can at the moment in order to clear the situation. A month later, Sephora posted on Facebook that all stores will be closed for an hour, because of a training of diversity. Clearly, SZA’s tweet encouraged whole Sephora’s team to do something about the customer’s service, which was, as we can see, terrible.

Sephora handled this situation pretty well, and they did the crucial things everyone needs to do, in order to get out of a crisis:

1. Value the customers’ comment and give them a feedback ASAP,

2. Imply that you’ll fix the situation ASAP;

3. Post about further steps taken in order to improve the customer service and satisfy every individual who comes into the store.

If every brand checked their social media multiple times a day, they would be able to prevent crises. With social media, “The customer is always right” upgraded to a new level. As a customer, if I’m not lazy to criticize a brand, then the brand should not be lazy to respond to me and give me feedback what will they do to improve the things I criticise.

After all, we all just look for some juciy drama on the Internet. And if we can’t find it, we create it ourselves. And companies should be aware of that!

How to use TOPSIS method for making decisions

- Define the Decision Problem: Clearly define the decision problem and identify the criteria that will be used to evaluate the alternatives.

- Identify Alternatives: List the alternatives that you want to evaluate in the decision-making process.

- Assign Weights to Criteria: Assign weights to each criterion based on their relative importance in the decision-making process. Ensure that the weights sum up to

- Collect Data and Construct Decision Matrix: Collect data for each alternative with respect to each criterion. Construct a decision matrix where rows represent alternatives, and columns represent criteria.

- Normalize the Decision Matrix: Normalize the decision matrix by dividing each element by the square root of the sum of the squares of the elements in the corresponding column.

- Weight the Normalized Decision Matrix: Multiply each element in the normalized decision matrix by its corresponding weight to get the weighted normalized decision matrix.

- Determine the Ideal and Anti-Ideal Solutions: Identify the ideal and anti-ideal solutions for each criterion. For benefit criteria, the ideal solution is the maximum value, and the anti-ideal solution is the minimum value. For cost criteria, it's the opposite.

- Calculate Separation Measures: Calculate the Euclidean distance between each alternative and both the ideal and anti-ideal solutions. This results in two separation measures: one from the ideal solution and one from the anti-ideal solution.

- Calculate Relative Closeness: Determine the relative closeness for each alternative by calculating the ratio of the separation from the anti-ideal solution to the sum of the separations from both the ideal and anti-ideal solutions.

- Rank the Alternatives: Rank the alternatives based on their relative closeness values. The alternative with the highest relative closeness is considered the most preferred.

- Make the Decision: The alternative with the highest rank is the recommended choice.

CAESAR II Pipe Stress Analysis Services

Are you looking for the reliable partner for the stress analysis of the piping system at your client's plant or refinery ? Little P.Eng.

Piping systems are critical to many processing plants or facilities, and because of that they need to be designed and fabricated with precision and care. The efficiency and operational flexibility of many plants and facilities depends greatly on the ability, flexibility and efficiency to transport fluid through the piping to equipment and machineries functioning collectively. A piping system, owing to its crucial role of fluid transport, requires a systematic approach by various engineering tools and methods prior to its construction and commissioning. Piping should be supported to prevent failure due to various loading conditions such as self-weight, operating pressure, temperature differences and dynamic loads.

This article discusses piping stress analysis for processing plants with a focus on practical notes and useful technical guidelines. Complex formulations or numerical aspect of analysis are not discussed in favor of practical guidelines.

Stresses in piping systems: primary and secondary

For most piping systems including nozzles and branch connections, two major types of stresses are encountered. These are classified as primary and secondary stresses. Primary stresses are generated by primary loadings such as pressure and weight. The secondary stresses are associated with cyclic conditions such as temperature changes or imposed displacements.

There have been two major criteria for primary stresses. The hoop stresses due to internal pressure should be safe and within specified limits considering the wall thickness of the piping components, including any reinforcement. The sum of the longitudinal stresses due to pressure, weight and other sustained loadings should be less than the specified limit. These limits are also function of operating temperature. Allowable stresses are reduced at high or low temperatures.

Considering secondary stresses, there have been specific sets of allowable stresses that are repetitive and cyclic. One set is the range of (secondary) stress in a piping system subjected to thermal movements. The temperature range for this condition is the total range from minimum to maximum or vice versa. The region of highest thermal stress is usually where the system absorbs most of the thermal movements. This can be the place with highest temperature difference.

Relatively high initial thermal stresses may decrease with time because of plastic strains. However, thermal stresses might reappear, probably in reversed direction, when the operation is shifted to another operating case with a different temperature. This phenomenon forms the basic difference between thermal stresses (secondary stress) and pressure or weight stresses (primary stress). Plastic strains can release the magnitude of thermal stresses by a change in the shape of the piping center-line or permanent deformations. This change in the shape has no practical effect on the sustained pressure or weight stresses. For this reason, sustained stresses are typically limited to the lowest allowable stress at maximum/minimum normal operating temperature.

The degree of the above-mentioned effect will depend on the magnitude of the initial thermal stresses and the temperature. For example, the initial hot stress will in general decrease with time, and the sum of the hot and cold stresses will stay about the same. This sum is called the displacement (or expansion) stress range and is, therefore, independent of the initial state of piping during erection.

As a rough indication, for materials below the creep range, the allowable stresses are somewhere between 60% to 66% of the yield stress. Therefore, a rough safety factor of 1.5 - 1.6 was considered before reaching the yield. Too often, this is the bending stress at which plastic flow starts.

Nozzle loads

Nozzles serve to connect an equipment or machinery with adjoining piping network. These are relatively weak points which could be under considerable loads from piping. Nozzles whether nozzles of fix equipment (such as vessels, heat exchangers, reactors, etc). or nozzles of machineries (pumps, compressors, etc) are one of the most sensitive and critical components of piping stress analysis. A set of allowable loads for each nozzle in the form of forces and moments is usually provided by the manufacturer. Actual forces and moments imposed by the adjacent piping system on the nozzles should be less than the allowable limits. This is an important consideration particularly for delicate machineries that usually can only tolerate very low nozzle loads. This imposed many limitations on the piping systems connected to such machineries.

How to support piping?

The answer to this question needs many considerations and studies. However, a few rules are noted to start the supporting. Firstly, an optimum value of piping span should be estimated considering the weight load, temperature and pressure. As the focus is on weight load, rest supports should be inserted at each length of span calculated to restrict the downward displacements and associated stresses to recommended values. At this stage, restricting displacements in lateral and axial directions should be limited to only necessary locations.

Guide supports and stop supports should subsequently be used to limit the piping displacements in the lateral and axial direction, respectively. Anchor support and a set of supports limiting lateral movement should be specifically placed somewhere near sensitive equipment (such as a delicate machinery) to limit loadings on nozzles of such an equipment or machinery.

An important case is where the piping is lifted from the support (resting support, guide, etc). In numerical terms, this might be seen as reaction forces of zero magnitude. In that case, either those supports should be removed if estimated allowable span and other considerations allow this or adjustments of nearby supports made to account for efficient load distribution. Alternatively, if a support is needed in the location with lift-off due to any reason, for instance, to control modal/dynamic movements, a gripping or clamping supported (such a clamp) may be in that place.

How to reduce stresses and reaction loads

High reaction force is a major issue in piping and equipment nozzles. There are different methods to deal with this problem. One possible approach to alleviate the high stresses or high nozzle loads would be to accommodate thermal movements by changing the routing of the piping system by using a few additional bends, “Z” loops, U-turns, expansion loops or others. If not possible or not successful, other expensive options such as expansion joints and hangers might be used. These devices use spring effects to reduce the stresses, reactions and nozzle loads. These options impose considerable initial and operating costs to the piping systems and the plant. They reduce overall reliability. They should be used as the last option when other simpler and cheaper options cannot be applied.

Typically, hangers accommodate expansion along a vertical line only. They have been used to accommodate the weight of piping spool on the nozzles of equipment or machinery where rigid supports cannot be used due to thermal movement considerations. Expansion joints are restricted by a very high price range and thus expansion loops or similar turn are always the best options. Expansion joints can accommodate for all the axial movements, but requires special fittings, and many provisions. They have been maintenance-intensive. They are delicate pieces of equipment and only used in special circumstances.

Battery limits and connected piping

Often to have a clear picture of stresses and loads of piping systems of a unit and proper optimization of the piping, all surrounding and connecting piping systems should be considered. This is a critical consideration. How far of connecting piping should be included is a matter of debate.

The analysis of the piping in a unit should include a portion of the connected and surrounding piping systems so that the true response of the piping system under consideration is captured. The best approach is to model the interaction between all different piping, equipment and facilities as far as possible. The amount of piping to include in the model will vary from case to case but in general it should include:

The piping up to at least three supports past a change in direction from the orientation of the battery limit of the unit under study. This is just an estimate, if required, a larger portion of the surrounding piping should be considered. For instance, sometimes, there are three guides or resting supports and there are configured in a way that axial movement can still be transferred to or from the unit.

The flexibility of supports. When the flexibility of a support is considered, a support load and associated stresses are reduced. Such as reduction might be negligible or significant depending on many factors such as the flexibility of the support compared to the flexibility of the piping and overall system.

The flexibility of the nozzle-shell intersection at any connection of equipment.
