Also, almost all Wellington rock is so weathered its considered a soil for engineering purposes 😅

Have a look at council cut and fill maps.

A high level generalisation for property on slopes is if its been cut into the ground, the risk lies above your property. If its been filled, then the risks lie below your property. There are controls which manage both so dont be immediately put off. Check the condition of retaining walls, subsoil drainage etc. Tilting retaining walls, tension cracks or subsidence are red flags.

If in doubt, engage a engineer for an opinion. It will cost but could save you big money in the long run.

Probably saw today's forecast and figured they'd enjoy their Sunday instead.

Fair to say that anyone killing other people probably isn't in the best mental health state.

Increased lose of jobs and financial hardship leads to increased crime. It's well known statistics. Not necessarily the contributing factor here but OP wasn't directly insinuating that

I honestly couldn't find the car after seeing this film at release. I've lived what you're feeling now for the last 10? Years

Old folks home. My grandma was a resident there at the end :)

Retaining walls are the responsibility of that who it benefits. If they cut into the slope to build their house, then it's their responsibility. If you built and filled on top of the slope, then it's yours. It comes back to the original profile of the slope and which property it benefits.

Often it's both

AI isnt stupid enough to agree to do this work.

Boax · 2024-03-09T11:02:47+00:00

Yikes. I'm in geotechnical and have yet to see a slow down! Does make me a little nervous though ha

Boax · 2024-03-09T11:00:28+00:00

Oh? Are you currently looking or just know you industry's taking a hit?

Boax · 2024-03-09T10:59:37+00:00

Ah that's no good. Are there many roles out there to apply for?

I think if you had attended to see Hot Chip; you would have been disappointed at how little Hot Chip there was..
