Welcome back to HappyPorch Radio: the circular economy technology podcast!Our hosts are joined by Lucy Wishart, lecturer in Circular Economy and Sustainable Transformations at the University of Edinburgh. In this episode they explore how rental models fit into academic, practical, and social aspects of circularity.From the idea of “consumption work” (and how rental reduces it) to what makes circular systems messy by nature, this conversation is packed with insight.Lucy explains how rental plays a key role in circular economy frameworks like the Nine R's and Product-Service Systems, offering an alternative to ownership-based consumption.The discussion explores both the potential and pitfalls of rental - from shifting consumption habits to labor and logistical challenges. "There's a distinction between circularity and the circular economy. Circularity can be quite small scale and local… but the circular economy requires more than one product, more than one organisation — it's collective. It requires us to work together."This podcast is brought to you by HappyPorch. We specialise in technology and software development for Circular Economy minded purpose-driven businesses.

IntroductionToday we welcome Joe Purtle, who is here to talk to us about concrete forms. Joe has been in construction for well over two decades, and he's currently the COO of Doka, which specializes in forming and shoring. Eddie shares a bit about his experience in construction back in the 2x4 and plywood days. He shares how cool it's been to see the complexity of forms increase over time and to see how those forms have become woven into BIM software.We discuss how designers and other stakeholders view concrete forms. Joe explains that the placement of concrete drives the schedule on many large projects. And the placement of concrete is largely dependent on the completion of formwork. Cycling of formwork and big dadgum messesEddie asks Joe to explain the cycling (reuse) of forms on large projects. Doka's job is to understand the complicated aspects of forming and pouring and how these complexities can affect a schedule. We discuss the benefits of modular approaches and cycling of forms. Joe discusses the importance of knowledgeable planning and the unfortunate results when things to wrong and a form gets trapped. It's what the bros and their Georgia buddies would call a “dadgum mess.”Joe shares about how he has seen companies process decisions related to renting vs. buying. He also discusses sustainability issues and equipment that measures temperature and pressure to optimize the curing process. We get into the optimization of pouring and the incorporation of reusable sensors that give designers and project managers the ability to know things they would have previously not known without expensive, messy tests. Prefab of formworkEddie asks Joe to share about prefab work such as cast-in-place parking garages. Joe explains that Doka can build and ship complete beam forms that are pretty much ready to plug and play when they arrive at the job site. They have CNC machines that can put curves into forms with highly detailed specs when the customer wants it. Tyler connects these abilities to the overall increase in complexity of structures. Joe shares about the pride we've discussed in previous episodes that comes with seeing a really cool building and being able to say you had something to do with that. BIM ModelingEddie asks Joe to explain how Doka's work integrates with the BIM process. He explains that they're already working within Revit and Tekla but that they are quickly extending their integration even further. We discuss how AI is streamline design. Then there are the AI features that simply increase the team's everyday operations. Joe shares some thoughts about “real BIM” vs. “Hollywood BIM” and how these differences affect scheduling. Eddie shares some thoughts from a designer's perspective as well as thoughts about storing huge form components that are not easy to move. We spend some time discussing the design rules being used to form AI and how significantly this process will likely change design work in the future. Then we discuss the role that human insight and finesse play in this process. Megaphone Message Joe's message to the industry is this: The industry needs to come together and stop working in silos. The sooner we can create true collaboration through the available technologies, the sooner we'll progress to a future we can't even imagine at this point.

The $13 trillion construction industry is experiencing its first systemic transformation in decades.In this groundbreaking episode, we examine how advanced technologies are dismantling the silos that have trapped the $13 trillion construction industry in decades of declining productivity. Francesco "Frio" Iorio, CEO of Augmenta and pioneer of generative design, reveals how construction is transforming from a fragmented collection of isolated specialists into an integrated ecosystem of collaborative intelligence.From creating the world's first AI-designed public school in rural Michigan to developing "surrogate master builder" systems that seamlessly coordinate complex building trades, Iorio demonstrates how ecosystemic thinking is finally breaking through the barriers that prevented construction from achieving the efficiency gains seen in manufacturing. This conversation illuminates how AI serves as the connective tissue, transforming siloed expertise into a unified system intelligence that can adapt to supply chain disruptions while enabling both rapid response and long-term strategic planning. HighlightsThe Productivity Paradox Solved: Construction is the only primary industry with declining productivity over the past 50 years; however, AI systems now achieve twice the speed of human designers while reducing waste and improving precision, finally breaking through the efficiency barrier that has challenged the $13 trillion industry.From Fragmented Silos to Integrated Intelligence: Modern construction has fragmented the holistic knowledge of medieval master builders, who were once united across isolated specialists, creating coordination nightmares. AI now serves as a "surrogate master builder companion," reuniting written codes, unwritten tribal knowledge, and real-time constraints into unified ecosystem intelligence that guides seamless collaboration.Beyond the Snowflake Problem: Unlike manufacturing's repeatable processes, every building is unique—the fundamental challenge preventing construction optimization. AI embraces this complexity head-on, enabling mass customization while maintaining the efficiency benefits of systematic design approaches.Global-Scale Impact Through Democratization: The first AI-designed building was a public school in rural Michigan, not a luxury project, signaling how these tools can democratize advanced sustainable design for the 4+ billion people entering urban areas globally, potentially preventing catastrophic "rush urbanization" scenarios.Supply Chain Resilience Revolution: AI-compressed design timelines enable early strategic planning and last-minute adaptation to economic shocks, transforming construction from a rigid sequence into a responsive ecosystem capable of thriving amid uncertainty and tariff-driven supply disruptions.#EcosystemicFutures #ConstructionAI #GenerativeDesign #SustainableBuilding #UrbanFutures #AITransformation #SupplyChainResilience #ProductivityRevolution #SystemicInnovationGuest: Francesco "Frio" Iorio, Co-Founder and CEO of AugmentaHost: Marco Annunziata, Co-Founder, Annunziata Desai PartnersSeries Hosts:Vikram Shyam, Lead Futurist, NASA Glenn Research CenterDyan Finkhousen, Founder & CEO, Shoshin WorksEcosystemic Futures is provided by NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration Convergent Aeronautics Solutions Project in collaboration with Shoshin Works.

Juan gives us an update on proceedings since we last spoke, their new JV agreement, VMS deposits, and why they are attractive propositions, their recently launched deep geophysics survey update, and discusses their unique board and what they bring to the company and much more. KEY TAKEAWAYS CanStar Resources has entered a significant joint venture with VMS Mining Corporation, which involves a phased investment totalling $11.5 million for a 60% ownership stake in CanStar's VMS assets. This structure is designed to be non-dilutive for existing shareholders. The Buckins District in Newfoundland is historically significant for its high-grade VMS deposits. CanStar's projects, Buckins and Mary March, are located in this area, which has seen limited exploration using modern geophysical techniques, suggesting substantial untapped potential. CanStar is also exploring its Golden Bay project, which has significant antimony potential. Antimony is critical for military and high-tech applications, and its rising demand presents a strategic opportunity for the company. CanStar plans to advance its exploration programs at both the Buckins and Mary March projects, with ongoing geophysical surveys and drilling activities. The company aims to execute its strategy efficiently in 2025, leveraging its partnerships and expertise to drive discoveries. BEST MOMENTS "CanStar Resources is a TSX-V listed junior that's focused on transforming neglected mineral systems into strategic assets for the next supercycle." "This joint venture... is non-dilutive and it's serious capital in the ground on an accelerated basis, really looking for a tier one discovery." "VMS deposits are very interesting in part because they're polymetallic... they give you economic flexibility and exposure to not only critical metals, but also precious metals." "The best place to look for a new deposit is in the shadow of the headframe." "Antimony is a mineral that is absolutely critical for military and high technology applications."

The $36.5 million project will expand a 2.4-mile stretch from two to four lanes, add a multi-use sidepath, and improve intersections with Reduced Conflict U-Turns. Originally proposed in 1991, the project faced decades of delays due to funding and environmental concerns.

Local leaders praised GDOT’s support for this vital improvement. STORY 5: Army Corps Closes Recreational Areas Ahead of Memorial Day A federal staffing shortage has led to the closure of 31 recreational areas across Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi, including 20 sites at Lake Lanier, just before Memorial Day weekend. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers announced the closures, sparking political blame. Georgia Rep. Rich McCormick criticized the decision, while Senators Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff blamed cuts initiated under former President Trump. The closures stem from budget reductions tied to the Department of Government Efficiency, established by Trump and Elon Musk. Impacted areas include Lake Lanier, Allatoona Lake, and parts of the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint River system.

Tracy Young has been on our radar for some time, having co-founded PlanGrid (acquired by Autodesk) and now co-founder of TigerEye - a GTM modern analytics platform. As a successful co-founder, Tracy has a natural sales background combined with her engineer background - a powerful combination. On the TigerEye website, the company's core values are: Wholehearted, Humility, Kaizen, Trust, and Simplicity. Tracy discusses how she leads the company and has battled in her own head what a construction CEO or a tech co-founder looks like. It looks like her: a petite, Asian woman. Tracy belives that the focus on a great leader should not be whether they are masculine or feminine but rather how they build their team - they have a vision, they're authentic, genuine, and are great communicators who care.

In this episode,Logan Shinholser interviews Dr. Anna Hunter, Director of Learning & Development at JobTread, to unpack how human behavior directly impacts digital adoption in construction companies. Anna explains why technology is only as effective as its implementation, how to create true team buy-in, and how contractors can avoid wasting thousands on unused tools. The conversation dives into key behavioral strategies like building software champions, structuring healthy incentives, and identifying root problems before investing in tech. With practical analogies and tactical steps, this episode bridges the gap between strategy and psychology in software rollout. Key Takeaways: Clarity Comes Before Software Before adopting software, companies need to clearly define their core operational problems. Jumping into tech without this clarity often leads to frustration and failure. The Champion Model Works Successful tech rollouts often rely on "champions" — team members who believe in the software and lead by example. Identifying the right personality types for this role (not just the loudest volunteer) is crucial. Start with the Team, Not the Tool The most effective companies get their teams involved in diagnosing problems and shaping processes before software ever enters the picture. Top-down mandates often backfire. Incentives Should Match the Culture Incentivizing new habits (like filling out daily logs) can work, but it must be tied to accountability. Small, visible rewards can spark pride and momentum, especially when tied to public progress tracking. Staged Rollout vs. All-In: Choose Wisely Rolling out software can happen gradually or all at once, but both approaches require preparation, peer support, and leadership alignment. Owner's Role: Understand and Translate Leaders don't need to be tech experts, but they do need to understand the software well enough to explain its value to their team — and to calm fears about being replaced. Memorable Quotes: “Software is only as good as how much you use it.” “Jumping into tech without clarity just means you're scaling chaos.” “You're not rushing adoption—you're building belief.” Actionable Advice: Define the Real Problems First: Use tools like whiteboards or flowcharts to uncover root causes before selecting a solution. Nominate the Right Champion: Identify someone who is both tech-comfortable and respected by the team—not just the loudest person in the room. Use Live Incentives: Create transparent incentive systems that track progress publicly and build pride over time. Start Small or Go All-In — But Plan Either Way: Whether you're doing a phased rollout or flipping the switch company-wide, preparation is key to success.

In this episode, Nick & Tyler talk through the emotional side of building a business — the doubt, the grind, and the quiet moments where it feels like nothing is working. Inspired by a post that hits close to home, they open up about the mental weight of leadership, how to tell when “hard” is part of the process or a sign to pivot, and why success comes not from certainty, but from showing up anyway.
