WATERTOWN, Mass. -- Avatar Design & Construction, a leader in the construction industry, has announced the next phase of expansion in its Multi-Family & Hotel Design-Build Construction Division. Guiding this monumental growth is Chief Operations Manager Nazar Vincent, a visionary with a track record of executing innovative construction strategies.

The announcement comes at a time when demand for multifaceted, quality-oriented construction services is surging both regionally and across the nation. The strategic expansion underscores Avatar's commitment to addressing this need with its trailblazing design-build solutions.

"It's an honor to lead Avatar Construction to new heights," says Vincent. "Our focus on cutting-edge, sustainable design is redefining what clients expect from their construction partners."

Avatar announced the "Grand" series of luxury apartment complexes earlier this year that have already broken ground at two Manchester NH locations, with more properties slated over the next few years.

A Testament to Innovative and Sustainable Design-Build Construction

Avatar Construction is no stranger to the spotlight, with a bevy of high-profile projects already under its belt and several more both in progress and poised to start. The firm's commitment to sustainability and modern construction methods is evident in every project they undertake. Their reputation for precision and reliability in multi-family and hotel environments has made them a preferred partner for complex and large-scale projects across the region.

Investment Opportunities

In partnership with Bridgewater Development of Watertown MA, several opportunities are available for qualified investors seeking lucrative CRE investments with industry leading returns.

"Our purchasing experts are able to secure high-quality products and building materials at a fraction of the cost through extensive research and offshore purchasing power," says Vincent. "This allows us to design projects with a much higher profit margin compared to other developers while still using superior designs, high-end materials, and the latest construction methods. In turn, we are able to share these profits with an elite group of investors who play a key role in the development of an exciting portfolio of projects across New England."

Concrete Sawing & Drilling Safety Week Returns Jan. 29-Feb. 2, 2024

MAUMEE, Ohio -- Ground Penetrating Radar Systems (GPRS), the country's largest infrastructure visualization company, has announced that Concrete Sawing & Drilling Safety Week 2024 will run January 29 - February 2.

Since 2018, GPRS has sponsored this safety initiative to provide free training to construction crews across the country, helping them mitigate the risk of silicosis and the other dangers of cutting or coring concrete.

During CSDSW, GPRS safety professionals travel the country providing safety talks - along with breakfast or lunch - to construction crews of all sizes.

To date, GPRS has educated over 20,000 construction professionals through this annual program. In 2023, over 150 companies proved their dedication to the safety of their workers by hosting CSDSW talks on their job sites.

"CSDSW is an amazing event due to its ability to bring education directly to the job site and the workers that need it most," said GPRS Western U.S. Sales Director Dave Mulcahey. "Silica dust exposure, post-tension cables, electrical shock, and so many other dangers associated with cutting and coring are serious issues that cause injuries and fatalities. CSDSW allows workers to understand the issues, but also prepares them with how to avoid those dangers and go home safely at the end of every day."

Silicosis will be a focus of this year's CSDSW presentations.

This incurable, progressive lung disease is the result of years of inhaling Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS), which is dispersed into the air whenever concrete is penetrated. Workers without proper protective equipment can inhale RCS, which can lie dormant in their respiratory systems for up to ten years before silicosis symptoms arise.

According to Environmental Health Insights, there are potentially 2,500-5,000 undiagnosed cases of silicosis annually.

In the past, minimum surveillance requirements on the job site meant that many silicosis cases were not reported or diagnosed. In 2023, the Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) enacted enhanced enforcement measures designed to limit the amount of RCS workers are exposed to, as well as how employers are required to report illnesses and injuries, including silicosis.

Exposure to crystalline silica is also directly correlated to increases in the risk of developing lung cancer, kidney disease, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, lung infections, and more, which is why OSHA issued enhanced enforcement measures regarding RSC exposure earlier this year.

CSDSW attendees will learn how to protect themselves and their coworkers from silicosis, concrete saw kickbacks, pinchpoints, and more.

Visit https://www.gp-radar.com/safety/concrete-safety-week to learn more and sign your team up for a free CSDSW safety talk today.

About GPRS:

Founded by Matt Aston in 2001, GPRS Intelligently Visualizes The Built World® by providing private utility locating, precision concrete scanning & imaging, 3D laser scanning, video pipe inspection, leak detection, and mapping & modeling services to utilities, contractors, engineering firms, and environmental consultants in every major market in the United States.
