Opportunity to Chemical Engineers for a Pre-feasibility study assignment
Paranthan Chemicals Company Ltd (PCCL), a State-owned company functioning under the purview of the Ministry of Industries has initiated a feasibility study to set up a caustic soda/chlorine plant at Paranthan in Kilinochchi District. There were four products identified to be manufactured in this project, namely caustic soda, chlorine, hydrochloric acid and sodium hypochlorite. However in the market study of this feasibility study has shown that there is a huge market potential for poly aluminium chloride (PAC). As such PCCL has decided to incorporate PAC into the project. Polyaluminium Chloride (PAC) is an effective & useful substitute for Aluminium Sulfate (Alum) which is conventionally used for removal of mud/turbidity in most of water treatment plants in Sri Lanka.
Poly aluminium chloride demand in Sri Lanka is 8,500 metric tons annually with an increasing demand trend. This volume equates approximately a market value of Rs. 600 million annually. As such PCCL has initiated a literature survey/study on commercially available production technologies so that best technology can be identified to set up a PAC plant. PCCL intends to get the assistance of a team of Chemical Engineers for this study. A Terms of Reference is prepared for this study. A honorarium will be paid to the Engineers participating in this study as an appreciation of their contribution towards this assignment.
Interested Chemical Engineers shall contact the Secretary of the Chemical Engineering Sectional Committee for further details & to obtain the TOR.
The deadline is 22nd February 2021.

“Drive Smart, Save lives” Program by CESC of the IESL
In a moment when center of attention is taken by Covid 19 global pandemic, as professionals in the field, Civil Engineering sectional committee (CESC) of the Institute of Engineers Sri Lanka (IESL) has planned to launch an awareness program “Drive Smart, Save lives” regarding road accidents to the general public and also to the Engineers.
As per the statistics, in 2019, a total of 30,433 motor accidents were reported, claiming the lives of 2839 people. In fact, road accidents are within the top 10 most contributing cause of total deaths in Sri Lanka. There are many contributing factors to the occurrence of such incidents. Recklessness of drivers, lack of knowledge, fatigue or stress, human errors, road conditions, poor health and lack of driving experience are few contributing factors among many possible root causes. With accident related data it is conclusive that vehicle accidents are resulted in affecting human lives and economy in significant manner. As a conclusion, it is imperative to take necessary actions to avoid such incidents as much as possible. CESC has intended to conduct the program in different stages by following various strategies to enhance the knowledge, discipline of the general public. In addition, more importantly, CESC is engaged in increasing engineers’ contribution to reduce accidents by identifying root causes and providing engineering solutions.   
In order to commence the “Drive Smart, Save lives” program, CESC has decided to distribute an informative flyer and windscreen sticker among general public as the first step of the said program at the Kottawa Expressway interchange. In addition, a brief discussion will be held on with the presence of experts in the field at the event location. Furthermore, as the 2nd event of the program, a panel discussion will be conducted at the beginning of the next month. Both events will be recorded and broadcasted later via EVENT TV. In addition, panel discussion will be broadcasted as a live event via IESL YOU TUBE channel.
Details related to the events are indicated below.
Date – 14th February 2021
Time - 8.30 am to 11.30am
Venue – Kottawa Expressway interchange.

INVITATION TO JOIN THE IESL ETHICS COMMITTEE  
Following is an invitation from the Chairman of the Council appointed Committee Chairman, Eng. Granie Jayalath – Vice President IESL to join the IESL Ethics Committee. The first meeting has been scheduled for 5.00 pm on 15th January 2021 at the Members’ Lounge of  IESL head office.
 

Background 

Thought out the last several decades, we had gradually lost image within the society. As you are aware there are many examples/ cases warranting this situation. Among many others one important factor that had contributed towards this situation had been the violation of our own code of ethics by our own members. Meanwhile it was evidenced that the share of violations the “Code of Ethics” had shouldered a significant portion towards the prevailing situation. Members had been used to point out that the current “Code of Ethics” warrant revisit & re-drafting so that violations could simply be analyzed making reference to the code of ethics, which is not the case with prevailing code. Because of this situation the committee called “Ethic Committee” was rejuvenated at the last council meeting. 
 

Objectives of Ethics Committee

 

Conducting general awareness sessions for membership.
Analysing of inquiries related to violation of code ethics & submit observations and recommendations to the council.
Revisit the existing code of ethics & develop a simplified version of it so that members could understand and follow them easily.
Whether Ethic committee could serve as a “Saviour“ for those who are compelled to commit violations against their own consciences.  

 
Those who wish to join the first meeting of the “Ethics Committee” are requested to express their willingness by dropping an Email to CEO/ES (email: es@iesl.lk) on or before 13th January 2021.

Annex 01
Annex02
Annex 03
 

As engineers we were benefitted by the free education system patronized by the citizens of this country. Hence it is our responsibility to give helping hand to blooming buds in our nation to brighten up their lives too. As leading professionals, IESL Women Engineers’ Forum (WEF) has realized that it is the responsibility and duty of us to support the students of rural schools who are going through a hard time to get their education with unbelievably limited resources. . WEF came up with an annual charity program called “Blooming Buds” in year 2018. We were able to support over 170 school children in year 2018 and over 110 school children in year 2019 in rural areas in the country with the kind donations of our IESL members and other well-wishers by donating them with stationaries, bags, shoes and other facilities needed by school.
Due to the prevailing situation due to Covid-19 pandemic, sanitary facilities are essential in schools where many schools do not have sufficiently. This year, WEF plans to provide sanitary facilities to three schools with less facilities. Proposals were obtained from the Executive Committee members and the Advisory committee members of the WEF. After evaluating the proposals, three schools were selected. Proposals and estimates were prepared for the three schools. The proposals were prioritised considering the beneficiary factor and will be implemented according to the receipt of contributions.
The requirements of the three schools are as follows.

PROPOSED PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS OF UDA
Urban Development Authority (UDA) intends to revise the 'Planning & Building Regulations' and the proposed draft has been forwarded to the IESL to obtain our comments on the same. 
Since the time period allowed for comments was only 08 days IESL has requested an extension. The subsequent official letters exchanged between IESL & UDA in this regard and the draft of the revised regulations can be viewed through the below links. IESL hopefully anticipates that the time extension request made by us will be considered favorably.

The study is now in progress. Once it is completed, the final report will be forwarded to UDA and other relevant authorities and be circulated among the IESL membership.
The Chairman of the committee cordially invites all IESL members to study the draft regulations and e-mail your suggestions/ comments to the mgr.pub@iesl.lk  on before 30th of November 2020 so that the committee can consider the inputs of the membership during the compilation of the report.

Dear Member:
As the President of Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka (IESL), I would like to inform you that, IESL, in its 114 year history, has made numerous positive contributions to development efforts of the country. As recently as 2008, IESL proposed the Colombo Suburban Railway Project (CSRP) and IESL was the happiest when news broke out that the project would commence in 2020.  Involvement of IESL in this particular project, as well as in other national projects that are beneficial to the country, has only two intentions. One - The project will be done without fail and Two - The project represents good value for public money invested.
One of the major concerns of IESL In recent years was the under-utilization of Sri Lankan engineering expertise in national level projects. This was highlighted by IESL at a recent meeting with His Excellency the President where we stated that (a) Sri Lankan Engineers have the full capacity of doing all Pre-feasibility, feasibility and pre-tender work of any Project (b) It is important to increase the local component in all engineering projects (c) It is important to establish a national plan for development spanning at least 30 year duration and (d) It is essential to have input of Sri Lankan Engineers in all projects from pre-feasibility stage to completion. HE the President affirmed IESL’s views.

Inviting proposals for innovative ideas of water conservation techniques for Home Gardening
CoVID – 19 pandemic brought in significant impacts to the society and the threat to immediate food security is on top of the list. It is evident that Government is highly encouraging home gardening as a remedial measure to this situation. There is a clear interest in the society for home gardening and it is fair to conclude that this situation would prevail for some time.  However, the water requirement for home gardening will increase the domestic per capita water usage all over the country. According to the National Water Supply and Drainage Board, the cost of production of one m3 of treated water is about Rs. 50 and it will be a real challenge to provide increased domestic water demand continuously. 
Objective:
As responsible organisation, Water Forum of IESL, is encouraging the home gardening drive by all means. In the meantime, we shall encourage identifying the ways and means of managing the additional water demand. One of the ways in this regard is to minimize water usage and to identify cost effective and easily adoptable means of reducing water use (in real sense, to feed only the actual requirement of water for the crop). Drip irrigation, automated sprinkler systems, rainwater harvesting, revival of dug wells, re-use of water are some techniques which can be adopted. 
Invitation:
The innovative proposals for best water conserving measures for Home Gardening are invited from Members of IESL. Proposal should be innovative, simple, practical, aimed at conserving water and energy and suitable to implement on households in Sri Lanka. Proposals will be evaluated under three categories based on suitability home gardening in (A) Urban (B) Peri-urban (C) Dry zone areas. Proposals can be submitted for any type of above three areas and the type and the type should be clearly mentioned in your proposal. A panel of experts consisting of professionals from different branches of water sector will evaluate the proposals based on innovativeness, simplicity, practicality, effectiveness in water and energy conservation and suitability for the selected area). The selected best three proposals, one from each category will be recognized and awarded by the Water Forum of IESL.  
Proposal Submission Deadline: 6th June  2020 
Email your proposals to: secretarywaterforumiesl@gmail.com Cc: ieslpub@gmail.com

Find the Effortless Now! The Two Day Non-Residential Workshop (non-religious event)
With Direct guidance & sound healing
Truly being in the Now… is to be in an effortless state while you go about everyday life.
When you are in the Effortless Now you may engage with the world, thinking, talking, being active… but your mind is effortlessly aware, and relaxed. This is what is meant to be in the Effortless Now, the true present moment awareness.
 The Effortless Now is a state of being, not a state of doing, in which you can very much be active in the world should you wish to…
The Effortless Now is also the state of flow that the high achievers and competitive sportsmen and women try to get in to, and what the religions talk about as a basic necessity for happiness. It is the way to become more self-aware and at peace, and much more besides.
 Being in the Effortless Now will change your life from inside out. You can learn how to be in this state the same way you can learn how to walk, swim or drive.
This program would teach you step by step to do exactly that.
As a result of learning to be in Effortless Presence you will:


be more relaxed and self-aware
be able to let go of the inner chatter
begin the journey to let go of long held grief, fears and phobias, anger issues, and other negative content in the mind and body
have a greater attention span and concentration
let go of stress due to work and troubling issues
be more intuitive
make better decisions in home and work life
improve interpersonal skills
be in better mental and physical health
begin to feel joy in life


“Life gives you plenty of time to do whatever you want to do
if you stay in the present moment” –Deepak Chopra   
 What the Effortless Present is:

It is a natural state of being


It is a conscious state. It is conscious of content of the mind rather than an unconscious state that is identified with mind content, i.e. the normal waking state
Anyone can identify it within oneself.
The thinking process can be integrated into to the Effortless Now, meaning that one can actively think, plan, etc., while effortlessly being in the present.
You can fully integrate it in to an ethical life.
It is a state that can be deepened to include the spiritual dimension, beyond mere belief.
[Note: what it is not primarily is a state where one tries to exclude the thoughts of the past or the future while trying to concentrate on the present. In other words, it includes the thoughts of the past or the future within an effortless present moment awareness that one intuitively connects to].

There is a precise science to being in the Effortless Present…
All genuine methods in spirituality and meditation will eventually get you in touch with the Effortless Present, including mindfulness meditation.
However this usually takes a considerable amount of time and effort. And not everyone will dedicate themselves enough to reach this state through meditation alone.There is however an alternative:
One can be introduced to the Effortless Present through a direct pointing out by a teacher.
Teachers with very specific consciousness/energy based skills can do this direct pointing out in that anyone open to this teaching can perceive the Effortless Presence within them using their own higher intuition to do so.
Sometime after being introduced in to the Effortless Now
You will be taught how to use sound yoga and music to go deeper in to the Effortless Now..
There is an ancient practice of healing and transformation through sound. Modern clinical psychiatry also uses music in its therapeutic work.
Music and sound can be attuned to in a particular way to give you an experience of deep relaxation and increased awareness.
In this workshop you will be shown the transformative power of connecting with music and sound to deepen your experience of the Effortless Now. This will also give you a joyful way to connect with your inner self through sound and music.
 A guarantee: everyone will find and experience the Effortless Present by the end of this program.
 The effect of being in the Effortless Presence in your work life:

Being in the Effortless Presence will mean that you will be in a state of relaxed alertness during your work. This will put you ‘in state’ to handle work-commitments more efficiently.
Creativity, not just in art, but in real-life situations, happens best when you are relaxed and alert at the same time. Your mind will bring up solutions seemingly out of nowhere when you are in this state. This is the so called ‘aha’ moment.
The reason why people come up with brilliant solutions to problems right after a good sleep and rest is because the state of relaxed alertness happens naturally for a short interval right after a good sleep. But the good news here is that that window of relaxed alertness can be had naturally with Effortless Present, and much longer than a short moment. In fact, one can life one’s entire life in this state of relaxed alertness, after some deepening.
The fundamental reason why most people are exhausted after a day of a white-collar job isn’t due to physical tiredness. The primary reason here is the mind that gets in to states of irritation, anger, anxiety, that it holds on to. The very nature of Effortless Present is clearing the mind through awareness. This will cut down or eliminate mental stress on the job itself.
Once you are genuinely relaxed, and not just trying to appear relaxed, others too will be naturally relaxed around you. You will enjoy their company, and they, yours. You will naturally have better interpersonal skills when you in the Effortless Present.
Once you start stabilising in the Effortless Present, you will open up the door of intuitive awareness, which is direct knowledge. Creativity is just one manifestation of higher intuition, the latter being infinitely vaster. The effect of this in your life in general, to whatever extent you will connect to this direct knowledge, will be immeasurable.

NOTICE



In order to legally practice Engineering in Sri Lanka under the Engineering Council of Sri Lanka (ECSL) Act (No 4 of 2017), Engineering Practitioners who work in the categories of 'Chartered Engineer', 'Associate Engineer' or 'Affiliate Engineer’, should get registered at the ECSL, through the Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka (IESL). Please refer to the linkhttp://www.iesl.lk/Engineering-Council-Sri-Lanka-(ECSL) to view the ECSL Act No 4 of 2017 andhttp://www.documents.gov.lk/files/gz/2019/5/2019-05-03(II-0)E.pdf to view the ECSL Gazette notification (English version).

Professional Standards Management Committee (PSMC) of the IESL has therefore initiated the process of formulating a mechanism to facilitate those practitioners to obtain the membership of the IESL, in respective categories as per their qualifications, experience and the categories under which they are currently registered in other professional engineering bodies recognized by the IESL.

After the process is approved by the Council of the IESL, due publicity will be given in our website and public newspapers inviting those practitioners of engineering to apply for the IESL membership in respective categories.

Tragedy Unfolded in Our Motherland
















 
 
Dear Fellow Engineers,

As all of you are aware our motherland has faced one of the gravest tragedies in recent years. We hope and pray that your families and loved ones living in Sri Lanka are safe and well. If your families or friends are affected by recent incidents, please feel free to contact us for any assistance and we are willing to help you.

In coming days, the people and families who are affected by the recent tragedy may require our help and assistance for them to get back into their lives, though this may be a very difficult and a long process. We will be talking to IESL headquarter in Colombo to see if there is any assistance that we can provide to assist the affected people in the country and what sort of long-term assistance we can provide from our end. We humbly request from you to attend the various activities organized in Sydney and around NSW for the affected people in our motherland and help them in whatever way you can.

We hope that our country will learn a lesson from what had unfolded and make sure that similar incidents will not be repeated again in the country.  We hope and pray for those who are injured to get well soon and those who lost their loved ones will have strength and courage to stand up and get back to their normal lives.  We wish to inform them that we share their grief and our thoughts are with them.

May the religious beliefs held by the affected peoples help them to come to grips with their losses and recover from injuries.

IESL NSW Chapter Executive Committee.

Designing of Fire Detection and Protection Systems
 
The Institution of Engineers, Sri Lanka is pleased to inform you that, the IESL have successfully started the CPD course “Designing of Fire Detection and Protection Systems” in February 2019. The course commenced on 09th of March 2019 and will conclude on 30th of March 2019. This CPD Programme is conducted by
 
Eng. Chandimal Jayakody
Eng. Samantha Gunawardana
Mr. Rohitha Fernando ( Chief Fire Officer)
Eng. Sagara Akalanka
Eng, Sajeewa Perera
Eng. Suranga Lekamwasam
 
 
 The main objectives of the training programme are as follows.

Participants will enhance their knowledge of Fire Protection and Detection applications and practical usage. The course is comprised of worked practical examples thereby gain knowledge on design criteria.


There are 69 participants partaking in the Designing of Fire Detection and Protection Systems CPD Programme. IESL would like to thank the pool of Resource persons, CPD Committee and IESL CPD staff of Education Division for their exertion in conducting this course.

 
Contract Administration
 
In March 2019 IESL successfully launched the CPD course “Contract Administration”. The course commenced on 03rd of March 2019 and will conclude on 23 th of June 2019. This CPD Programme is conducted by Eng. A. C. Rasiah  BSc (Eng),   Dip.Arbitration (Merit) (ICLP),   CEng.  FIE(SL),  MConsE(SL), Consulting Engineer, Arbitrator (ICLP, IESL), Adjudicator (CIDA, IESL)
 
The main objective of the training programme is;

To provide the contractual and legal knowledge required in the  execution of a construction contract and its administration

At present numerous problems such as delays, increase in costs, claims, and disputes arise in our construction contracts due to lack of knowledge about contracts by the Contract Administrator (Engineer/Architect/Quantity Surveyor or his delegated Assistant), Contractor or Client of the Conditions of Contract known as the express terms of a contract (written terms), and the Law governing the contract known as the implied terms of a contract (unwritten terms)

The course is intended to provide knowledge and understanding of contracts to minimize such problems, focusing mainly on the frequently occurring types of problems in our local construction contracts, in order to provide the maximum benefits to the participants from the course and avoid the frequently occurring disputes in our local construction contracts. Avoidance of disputes prevents losses in the time of completion of a construction project due to the avoidance of elaborate dispute resolving processes such as adjudication, arbitration etc. It must be noted that while an adjudication process may take a few months to conclude, an arbitration process may take a few years to conclude. This is detrimental to both the construction industry and the development of the country as a whole.

 
There are 54 participants partaking for the Contract Administration CPD Programme. IESL would like to thank the pool of Resource persons, CPD Committee and IESL CPD staff of Education Division for their exertion in conducting this course.
 
 
Microsoft Project 2013/2016
 
“Microsoft Project 2013/2016” CPD programme was successfully concluded in February 2019. It was conducted from 06th of January 2019 to 10th of February 2019. The CPD programme was steered by Mr. Shanaka de Silva (Bsc MIS, MBA, MSC, PMP, PMI-ACP, CSM / Executive Vice President – PMI Colombo, Sri Lanka Chapter/Director – Ernst & Young)
 
The main objectives were,

Relevance and importance for harnessing the competencies and skills of 21st-century engineers
To provide awareness of new/latest developments in a subject area,
To update the members on the current knowledge in a particular technology,
To enable the engineers to acquire the necessary competencies for the effective application of knowledge in the workplace.

45 participants of the Microsoft Project CPD Programme were acknowledged upon successfully completing the course. IESL would like to thank the pool of Resource persons, CPD Committee, participants and IESL CPD staff of Education Division for making this CPD Programme a Success.
