Wherever it’s from! C M Y CM MY CY CMY K With the building products being used on construction sites now sourced globally, the importance of independent, expert technical validation of materials conformance has never been greater. It's simply not enough to think just because steel has been ordered to an Australian or New Zealand Standard that the delivered product will automatically conform with Standards and be fit for purpose - even if it comes with a test certificate. ACRS certification makes checking for steel compliance with Australian and New Zealand Standards easy. ACRS manufacturer and supplier certificates demonstrate INDEPENDENTLY and EXPERTLY that the manufacturer, processor or supplier consistently meets the Standards stated on the certificate. www.steelcertification.com Ph: (02) 9965 7216 | E: [email protected] ABN: 40 096 692 545 ACRS - Independent, Expert Third Party Certification & Verification of Reinforcing, Prestressing and Structural Steels for Compliance with Australian and New Zealand Standards FEB/MAR 2019 contents Volume 5 Number 1 Published by: 2 Editorial Editorial and Publishing Consultants Pty Ltd ABN 85 007 693 138 PO Box 510, Broadford 4 Industry News Victoria 3658 Australia Phone: 1300 EPC GROUP (1300 372 476) Int’l: +61 3 5784 3438 Fax: +61 3 5784 2210 8 Product Focus www.epcgroup.com Publisher and Managing Editor Anthony T Schmidt 10 Fleet Maintenance 8 Phone: 1300 EPCGROUP (1300 372 476) Mobile: 0414 788 900 Email: [email protected] 14 Cover Feature: IPWEA Business Development Manager Lawrence Whiter Mobile: 0418 543 821 20 Concrete Institute News Email: [email protected] National Advertising Sales Manager Product Brief Yuri Mamistvalov 30 Phone: 1300 EPCGROUP (1300 372 476) Mobile: 0419 339 865 14 Email: [email protected] 32 National Precast Feature Advertising Sales - SA Jodie Gaffney - AmAgo Mobile: 0439 749 993 40 Waterproofing Email: [email protected] Advertising Sales - WA 42 Case Study: Gyprock Russet House Licia Salomone - OKeeffe Media Mobile: 0412 080 600 Email: [email protected] 44 Precast Technology Graphic Design Annette Epifanidis 42 Mobile: 0416 087 412 46 IPWEA NSW News TERMS AND CONDITIONS This publication is published by Editorial and Publishing Consultants Pty Ltd (the “Publisher”).

  • Exploring Magical History: Egypt – II Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom by Josephine Mccarthy
    Exploring Magical History: Egypt – II Early Dynastic and Old Kingdom By Josephine McCarthy As we now begin to look at various ancient cultures, it is wise to remember that what we today call magic, in its more advanced and mystical aspects, was an inherent ingredient of many ancient religions. It was the power and skill to protect and guard what was sacred and precious, it was used to keep the powers of nature in balance as much as possible, and it was also used in a mystical sense to keep the worlds of the gods and the humans close together. This weaving of magic and religion, which in the ancient world were one and the same thing, was evident in both Ancient Egypt and Ancient Sumer/Mesopotamia. These two very ancient civilisations both independently developed magical religions that still have a strong bearing on our magic today. Because of that, it is important if we are going to understand the development of magic, that we look closely and try to spot in those distant past cultures, the roots of today’s magical behaviour. Old Kingdom Egypt was a highly developed cultural and religious society, where religion, and the magic within the religion kept all the plates spinning, and the chief plate spinner was the king. On one hand, the health and prosperity of the land and people were his main focus, and on the other hand, the passage through death and the subsequent soul transformation was of the utmost importance, and this was achieved by tending the gods properly, and by living to the laws of Ma’at.

  • Axumities Awaken, Egypt Hearken!
    Axumities Awaken, Egypt Hearken! By Yared Huluf - 14- 05 - 20 Prelud e Aksumites, awaken! Egypt, Hearken! If you have ears to listen Open your eyes to vision. Relax your mind to reason Cast away illusion And you will not be panic stricken. Taphephobia you shall no longer reckon In the desert sand as coutiers did often Watching the pharaohs lie unrotten. For Tigray will no more be concern. The water is yours, you have won. If only you and your champions Leave Tigray to go it alone, And give back the land stolen --------------------------------------------------------- Main Body To begin I would like to reiterate Mani (216 - 274 AD) the founder of the Manichaeism religion of the Sassanian Empire, who stated that the Aksumite Empire was one of four great kingdoms (Roman, Persian and Chinese Empires) of the ancient world stretching from 100 BC - 900 AD. To outline and state the significance of this world power, we must account for its assets and achievements. Aksum produced and exported wheat, barley, myrrh, ivory and gold which was brought by the Nile through to the district called Cyeneum (ስሜን) and then on to Askum city. These goods were subsequently distributed to the rest of the world either via five day caravan trips to Adulis or up through Meroe to Egypt according to Perplus of the Erythraean Sea. Aksum had abundant gold, silver, bronze and copper mining fields that made it possible to mint coins as superior as that of Roman and Persian mintage. That said however, Aksum fared worse compared to its contemporary empires and its past glory.
