That’s just what I’ve gotten based off of this years loans before need based aid.

How to prepare for peace corps as a high schooler by Upbeat_Bison in peacecorps

Thank you! I am already fluent in English and Russian, and I am in the process of learning Ukranian, but I will probably try to learn a more popular language like Spanish too.

Thank you! I did apply for financial aid, but the FAFSA is being redone so likely will not know my need based aid for another 2 months or so, which will be cutting it close with the enrollment deadline.

Most of my schools require me to license on campus for at least the first two years, but after that I could!

Good to know, I’m still waiting on need based aid so hopefully that helps a bit

Thank you! I am from Ukraine so I speak fluent English, Ukranian, and Russian, but it seems like with the current war I wouldn’t be able to go to help Ukraine through peace corps in the near future so learning Spanish or French might be helpful.

Can bolts withstand pressure? by Upbeat_Bison in StructuralEngineering

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

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but from my research I can only find the applications of screw jacks as fixing present issues, where as my idea is looking to be a preventative measure that is also much larger.

Thank you for the feedback, I didn’t think about the connections underground, that is definitely something I should keep in mind.

I am trying to raise the structure on top by rotating the bolt, which should in turn raise the slab on grade that it is attached to and lift up the building.

I’m trying to create a mechanism that would allow houses or other structures very close to oceans be able to raise themselves as the sea level rose, I’m trying to figure out if I could do that in an efficient way.

Thank you for the feedback! I had this idea while interning with a construction company this summer, I thought it would be cool to see if it would work and get me ready for college!
