ACTIONS TO TAKE * If possible, consider re-scheduling research activities for cooler parts of the day or different days of the week. * Close fume hood sashes completely when not in use to reduce the amount of conditioned air that’s exhausted. * If you are able to, increase your thermostat by a few degrees to reduce air conditioning demand. * Close windows, blinds and doors to prevent heat from entering. * Turn off lights when rooms are unoccupied to reduce electricity use and eliminate the heat given off by the lights. * Turn off and unplug any unused equipment/devices to reduce electricity use. * Eliminate or reduce indoor heat sources, including autoclaves, lasers and ovens, especially during the hottest hours of the day. RESULTING OUTCOMES By working together and taking actions, we will: * Reduce energy consumption * Ensure our campus utilities are running smoothly * Keep indoor spaces comfortable Please report suspected maintenance concerns to Operations and Maintenance through the usual process. Questions related to lab use may be directed to Mita Juristyarini, assistant director of research safety, at pjuristy(a)purdue.edu<mailto:pjuristy@purdue.edu>.

A research team led by Akanshu Sharma, the Jack and Kay Hockema Associate Professor in Civil Engineering and an expert in structural engineering hazard solutions, is testing a cost-effective, minimally invasive technique to fortify older concrete buildings against earthquakes, potentially saving lives and preserving structures worldwide.
