The Death Star was a moon-sized, deep-space mobile battle station constructed by the Galactic Empire over the course of 20 years.

In 21 BBY, after the Second Battle of Geonosis and before the first anniversary of the First Battle of Geonosis, the Strategic Advisory Cell announced the completion of phase one of the Death Star's construction.

Star Wars has fully explained why the Death Star took 20 years to make. The Empire's greatest super-weapon, the Death Star was actually in the works long before Palpatine even officially founded the Empire.

The Empire had a special advantage in the construction process: the Sanctuary Pipeline. The Imps literally carved a tunnel through hyperspace, from the Core to Endor. It took many centuries to develop the first successful aeroplane, but now it's a matter of a few years at most.

Check out Death Star architect Dak Exhaustport‘s statement below. The architect took the opportunity to defend himself and prove that his design was not to blame for Death Star destruction.

Founded in 1848, the RIAM is Ireland's national music conservatoire. It RIAM provides the highest standards for pre-college, undergraduate, and postgraduate musical training. RIAM's nationwide music and drama exams evaluate and encourage the learning and growth in the island of Ireland of young performing artists and their dedicated teachers.

After a 24 million euro renovation of its Dublin campus on Westland Row, the Royal Irish Academy of Music will almost double the number of students to make Ireland’s longest-established music conservatoire fit for purpose.

When state-of-the-art facilities for the preparation of future generations of musicians reopen in late 2021, numbers will jump to 3,000 pre-college attendees and 250 at full-time degree students after renovation.

The present poor-quality modern additions will be knocked behind the historically protected terrace that will be preserved and a new building of 4,394sq m will go back as far as Cumberland Lane, marrying the rich legacy of the Georgian Quarter with cutting edge modern design.

A purpose-built opera studio and rehearsal space will be included in the renovated campus; 75 teaching rooms with flexible, adaptable acoustics; a state-of-the-art library; a sound arts centre for electronic composition; a 60-seat lecture hall; a music therapy facility; and a more open wheelchair user entrance. A new 300-seat concert hall will also be in operation.

The Bridgefoot Park Community Campaign has been working since 2015 to build awareness of the Bridgefoot Street site as a neighborhood park for the Liberties area. The campaign has worked with the Dublin city development planning process to look to have the site rezoned for recreation.

The Waxie Dargle was a traditional Irish pub located in Parnell Square, Dublin 1.

The traditional Irish pub was sold in 2015 and has since become the Evercam HQ. Parnell Square is the heart of Dublin, and is currently undergoing a redevelopment phase and will soon become Dublin's cultural quarter.

The transformation from pub to office included a complete internal re-design, including a concrete pour in our basement. Check out this absolutely amazing 360 degree time-lapse video below. Each and every moment of the complete transformation has been recorded using Evercam 360 degree time-lapse technique.

The Poultry Market building sits at the western end of the Smithfield market complex, east of Farringdon Road in central London. Smithfield Poultry Market was built in 1961–1963 to replace a Victorian market building that was destroyed by fire in 1958 in Smithfield, London. Its roof is said to be the world's largest concrete shell structure and Europe's largest transparent spanning dome roof.

After the City of London named leading regeneration specialist, ENGIE, to deliver a much-needed new roof, the Grade II listed Smithfield Poultry Market is expected to benefit from a £5.7 million renovation.

The impressive structure, which was built in 1953, is currently in a state of disrepair, necessitating a major renovation. The market, which is open 24 hours a day, will remain open during construction, and work will include the construction of a working platform on the roof's underside to provide secure access and protect the people below.

The original copper roof coverings will be removed and replaced with a new copper roof and insulation, as well as the existing 36 2.9m diameter rooflights with modern equivalents. The repaired roof would ensure the building's survival for another seventy years.

Concrete repairs to the dome roof's exterior perimeter, as well as a new entry and maintenance scheme, are among the additional tasks.

Dublin Bus operates the Public Service Obligation network in the Greater Dublin Area under a contract of services with the National Transport Authority.

A detached five-bay, two-story former railway terminus, dated 1850, is now being used as a bus depot.

This project consisted of the construction of a repair garage, chassis wash and chassis line consisting of over 60t of structural steel.

Preexisting sunken pits have been deepened and have been formed as a bus maintenance area adding drainage connections. The new internal structure has an area of 535 m sq. on the ground floor and 295 m sq. on the first floor for storage.

Evercam installed 3 Cameras on the construction site to monitor and record each and every step.

2 cameras were installed on the outside to record and monitor the structure which was being built and the 3rd camera was installed inside the depot to closely monitor the internal construction.
