IDE assists USA Professor when he visits UK


Mark Shaurette, PhD, Assistant Professor at Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indianapolis, USA is visiting the UK in early July and requested the opportunity to visit a project where technology not commonly used in the USA is being used.

The IDE, via it's members, Paul Mayo of Coleman and Co and Vice President John Woodward, were able to arrange for Mark to visit the Coleman and Co site at Broomloan Court, Glasgow where the tallest Ultra High Reach machine in the UK, produced by Liebherr for Coleman, is demolishing three 22 storey tower blocks for GHA.

Mark is visiting the site on Tuesday July 6th where Coleman and Co supervisor Eddie French will show Mark around, explain the workings of the machine and allow Mark to shoot photos and video of the machine in action.

Mark is delighted that the IDE were able to arrange this visit and allow him to see such a great piece of technology in action.
