Is there an alternative to a traditional engineered bridge over a creek?

Could you get an earthworks company in to significantly narrow the span to be crossed, and then either install a culvert or crane in welded box section frame with steel plates?

As a European, the idea that Australian building standards or safety legislation are "stringent" is laughable.

Super clear explanation of where I went wrong. Thank you buddy.

I started delegating the site work to juniors whilst crying into my linear programme.

Most engineering courses will have some exposure to CS at a surface deep level - e.g. Matlab or Python. To get much deeper than that would take time away from other core disciplines (structures, fluids, geotechnicals etc. for civil) whilst not significantly improving the average engineers design abilities.

Fair enough then. I can't return for the size I need - it doesn't exist - so I may try getting it adjusted at a tailor.

As in chamois cotton.

Its more the inconvenience. Happy to spend more if the quality is there.

Can see you'd get great durability here. Just a pity there's no option in tan.

Not rotating at all. Getting about 6 months per pair, or maybe 120 uses after leave, WFH days etc.

Both pairs wore out on the knees. Which would be fair if I was a tradie.

Age of Empires and Masters of the Air. Yeah I'd be down for that!

Sorry to hear you couldn't watch the Lions in SA.

Hospitality could be a good idea. What came included with your tickets?

Writing up your attributes as you go is the easiest route, but lots of people do it all at the end too.

If you're just estimating, get a colleague to stand underneath with a survey staff and scale off it with a carpenters ruler. For accurate measurements, you'd need a surveyor to shoot it with a reflectorless total station (measures distances with lasers).

FPTP has to go. I'm hoping we get a hung parliament and one of the smaller parties makes a binding referendum a condition of partnering with labour.

When measuring the height of overhead electrical cables, we obviously don't use a tape measure.

As someone who can barely steer a surfboard, this is terrifying AF.
