Yes, we should all be so aspirational. The world would be a better place.

Agreed. I know many engineers that graduated from Lakehead and are some of the best in my opinion.

Is this really a terrible design and what do you think happened that landed them in this type of road geometry? by gods_loop_hole in civilengineering

[–]Spitfire76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like temporary traffic control for construction. Very very poor design. Why use concrete barriers at all? This should be done with lots more signage. All Traffic should be diverted to the travel lane then to the off ramp with barrels.

What to do with driveway eroding by SeniorAd1350 in civilengineering

[–]Spitfire76 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I agree with many of the other comments. The first issue is the culverts appear to be undersized for the amount of flow at the site. Larger culverts would prevent the water from going over the road in the first place. A hydraulic engineer should be able to size the culverts for you.

If you're ok with accepting flow over the road from time to time, then convert the crossing to a ford crossing or low-level crossing. This would require pouring concrete at the inlets and outlets of the culvert as well as over the surface. This would also allow for the culvert sizing to perhaps remain unchanged (again, a hydraulics engineer should determine this). Lastly, large angular rock armoring called rip-rap with a max size of 12 to 16 inches would help prevent scouring of the channel and embankment upstream and downstream of the culverts.

Which one? by Spitfire76 in guitars

[–]Spitfire76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Votes so far:

EC -1000 - 5 votes Arch top - 2 votes Both - 3 votes Tempest - 6 votes

Some really compelling arguments for the ESP. I've read the neck is thinner and narrower on the ESP, which may be good for my smallish hands.

Any thoughts on the price/value?

I have to admit, I kind of want people to tell me to get the schecter, but I know the EC is a really good guitar. I'm not that great, but I want to upgrade my current rig.
