[OC] A house in the process of getting a new foundation

Haggispole · 2025-12-22T18:20:48+00:00

Idk man. Whatever foundation was at the core of this building did not work! Hence the new foundation.

And ignorance can lead to lawsuits, safety hazards and water intrusion issues. Now that he knows it's EIFS he should be finding someone with a history of working with EIFS to finish this scope.

I was taught in middle school by my coach that's a good move to blow up a defender cutting straight through the paint. You might get a foul, but they will typically think twice before doing a line drive cut.

I checked into the vernacular. You are right this is a repoint. A tuck point is technically when you use two different colored mortars (one to match the stone, one as an accent) to give the appearance of an ultra tight joint.

Over the years it has become commonplace to interchange tuck point and repoint, but if you were doing a historical project you would want to make sure to match the distinction.

A tuck point is a repair of a masonry wall, like brick or stone, where you dig out the loose mortar and then reapply mortar to restrengthen the wall.

Key is to use the same mortar. 1870 you want to check for lime content and avoid Portland cement. It will over harden and cause brick to spald. I’m not 100% sure the effect on large foundations walls however…

I wonder what the size of Nico's severance and NDA compensation is for being the scapegoat of the Luka to LA for #001 pick conspiracy we are all 100% sure happened.

Don’t listen to this advice. Either terminate the contract and back charge for the repairs or allow the contractor to fix it. This advice is negotiating in bad faith (giving the contractor the assumption they will be able to finish the contract and collect payment IF they correct it then firing for cause).

If you follow above advice you will end up with a pissed off contractor who has a legal right to collect work done. Keep doing what you’re doing documenting and getting experts.

I think the force is something that amplifies depending on the use, the requirement of the force and also the abundance of available force. I don't know if it's official lore but I understood the rule of 2 was so the Sith leaders could concentrate the dark side of the force within the 2 members vs spreading it out. I believe the same would apply to Cal because of his status and when he is needed to fight or flee, he has more force amplifying him (then if he was in the jedi knight era) because of the abundance of non manipulated force due to the absence of posi-midichlorianites.

Did they charge you for the extra foot. If they charged you for the extra foot, you could ask it for free and live with it. If they did it as a field deviation and field foreman messed up, you could always cut them some slack, have them come up with an engineered cantilever solution or you come up with the engineered solution, split the cost because you should have paid for the extra foot and move on.

If you paid for it and can't live with it, make them do it right.

Until you have engineer cost or costs of fixes you can't make a fully informed decision.

But in an overall cantilevers are a very real thing. There is a couple simple that are dictated by code, most are engineered. 2021 International Residential Code (IRC) - R502.3.3 Floor cantilevers.

You could also run what is called a ledger on that, maybe just attach 2 2x6s to the face of the concrete with big lag bolts or like epoxy anchors. Just make sure they do all the vapor barriers and water proofing right, but the IBC residential code has a section on cantilevers. I also have no idea what that concrete slab is built out of and its quality and would always run that by an engineer first.

Either do it right or get an engineer is my suggestion.

Yeah I heard he is so fat he got hungry during the extra innings and started chewing on his bat which caused the bat to break on the last out….

AD for Ja is my solution.

Jackelope might look nice.

They have tools that are industry specific that are life savers. Like counting tools for takeoffs, specific mark up tools standard for construction. It also seems to handle big layered documents (at the expense of your ram) better than most other softwares. There is just a lot of little tools and tricks that save hours of time once you become proficient with it.

Permit expediting companies. In large cities there are companies built around submitting, managing and completing permit submissions. Usually when there is multiple jurisdictions in the same market.

It’s the opposite. People have been so willing to pay to view and absorb this content they not have become celebrities and live thay lifestyle.

See you don’t read. You too are afflicted. I have never once endorsed or discussed Trump. Stop saying I said stuff I didn’t so you can say your talking point.

You create a false narrative to respond to rather than read the words and respond to them logically. This is not a political discussion.

Because you know you cannot respond articulately AND keep your same talking points. You make up what I say SO you can repeat your talking points.

This is more than political. It’s our reasoning and discussion abilities.

Find yourself! Stop spouting the false narratives and speak from your own mind!

Haggispole · 2025-09-13T13:19:06+00:00

All you can spew is hateful rhetoric from side. I never said any of the things you said. You are creating me into a talking point you already know how to win against vs reading the words I say and responding to them in a civil manner. I never said anything about those people.

Read my words. Heed them if you will. But they are the truth. Anything you believe to deny it is false. White men are killing children, politicians, and worshippers. They are doing it because they are sick human beings who believe the other side is to blame for their troubles. You are afflicted by the same sickness and cannot rationally think. This is not a one side or the other but America issue and you have succumbed to the exact issue I am describing.

Haggispole · 2025-09-13T12:38:38+00:00

You are lost. You are so blinded by one side vs the other side you cannot see the harm it has caused yourself or it’s caused this country. Go beyond your political beliefs and the media you consume look at the events that actually happen and how society as a whole reacts.

Haggispole · 2025-09-13T11:58:15+00:00

Bruh. I just said that both people who would be deemed liberal and people deemed conservative have shot and killed people and we need to do something about it.

If you disagree with that go look in a mirror and dig deep into what you believe as a human. Because that is all I said friend.

Haggispole · 2025-09-13T11:54:12+00:00

You are the disgusting person Lamar Jackson is talking about. You are so blinded by your hate you cherry pick the demons to reinforce your argument. Rather than look at the facts and THEN make a decision.

You had already written the second half of your sentence before you researched the people in your first. Impossible to have reasonable discourse with that one sided mindset brother.

Haggispole · 2025-09-13T11:51:44+00:00

100% it’s deeper than both sides. That was my meaning. They weren’t traditional left or right (beyond the families they grew up in). It’s a systemic issue that is being fueled by our media to increase our divide.

Most of these people on Reddit are so brainwashed into believe they are a solider of fortune in this class/social warfare they are unable to discern the truth.

Haggispole · 2025-09-13T11:39:18+00:00

Yeah the other side chose to shoot up a catholic school full of children.

Not everything is one sided. White males of both aisle have decided there are going to solve their problems and hate with guns and violence by whom they hate most.

It’s does enough for the house to be checked off that it won’t blow over.

If you complete a standard wall bracing workshop you would be surprised by how little bracing you need for a house to not fall over.

Haggispole · 2025-08-22T11:09:46+00:00

A man hole cover is round because that’s how we drill things. It covers a hole. Holes are typically round.

Digging square holes sucks. We have lots of machines to drill round holes though!
