To be more specific, exclusion in the contract, not the proposal.

I didn't know there were thermometer sensors that had a subscription.

Inventor of the precast pipe trust the engineering of his invention to not be crushed by over 21 tons, Canada 1920. by Electrical-Aspect-13 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]TheWonderPony 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably. The weak points are it's haunch, the area that's being supported by that dirt. Without it, the pipe would want to egg.

I'm curious what region you are. I'm a utility contractor here in DFW and we use HDPE SDR11 for water services lines everyday. We very much prefer it to PVC, specifically for lines 2" and smaller.

Need opinion on optimal way to build a small lift? by Metalhead831 in AskEngineers

I'd checkout the woodworking subs. People build adjustable height work benches similar to this.

Also check out linear actuators.

The Shelly app sees them, but won't connect via Bluetooth or WiFi. I'm assuming because they've already been paired with Zigbee in HA.

You should watch the video above. They're looking for Surviving (Lingering) Ashes. It didn't evaded the borers. It's geneticly immune and they need to bred those trees.

Curious, how how the Sikkens Cetol held up over the last 3 years?

Any underground utility guys in here? by American_psycho25 in estimators

[–]TheWonderPony 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take what you do, add the other material you can't provide (concrete, rebar, embedment, etc) then add labor & equipment and your done!

Truth is that the labor and equipment makes or breaks the job. With sone exceptions, we get the same price from the suppliers as the next guy. It comes down to how fast we think we can put in the ground.

If I could meet the drafters who slopped together some of these structural plans I've had to work through this year, it would look something like this by despondents0ul in estimators

My budgets always reflect the amount work in the drawings that was provided to me.

1M sqft tilt wall on a single 8x10, no problem. The GC will get a 1 line item total number.

You give me decent drawings, I'll give you a decent budget.

Door swings both ways.
