Ir Dr. Siwei Liu is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University and a recognized Chartered Engineer (MHKIE – Structural Discipline) in Hong Kong. Specializing in steel structures, stability analysis methods, and computational structural mechanics, his research addresses design challenges in modern steel structures. His work has contributed to national standards such as the American Steel Code ANSI/AISC 360-22 for the stability design of nonsymmetric steel members. Dr. Liu has co-developed innovative structural analysis and design software—including RCD2016, NIDA10, MSASect2, and Mastan2-v5—used by research teams and consultancies in Hong Kong, Mainland China, Singapore, and the USA. His excellence in applied research is evidenced by prestigious accolades, including the HKIE Grand Award in Research (2020), a Commendation Award (2018), and another Grand Award (2016) from the joint structural division of HKIE and IStructE.
Lim Soon Heng:
In a world threatened by global warming with undeniable consequences such as rising sea levels, unprecedented floods and wildfires and biodiversity loss, space at sea is increasingly more attractive for human abodes, economic activities, recreation and for food. The attractiveness of living close to the sea is evidenced by the population distribution of littoral states. Massive wind farms and floating solar panels also benefit from the application of floating solutions. It is with this conviction that Lim Soon Heng founded the Society of Floating Solutions (Singapore) in 2018. He has initiated a series of World Conference on Floating Solutions that has so far been held in Singapore, Rotterdam, Tokyo, Hong Kong with the fifth to be held in Helsinki, Finland. Trained as a mechanical and marine engineer he also has expensive experience in the design and construction of piers, and graving and floating docks. Educated in the National University of Singapore, INSEAD he is a Fellow of the IMarEST, SSSS and a Professional Engineer registered in Singapore.

Diritto di recesso
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
-
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
-
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
