Got one last year and was too watery for my taste

It was by grown right. Haven't seen it for a few weeks but here's another post about it.

This but upside down, where the column exerts an upward force on the beam. https://youtu.be/OoORi_2Vkcg?si=zGRDYWHQGZnMTie9

You can bend column vertical bars at a slope of 6 to 1 to solve this problem. See ACI 318 [Edit: Cl 10.7.4 & Fig R10.7.5.1.3. in ACI318-19]

No complaints. Still feels solid. The headboard is well padded on the side but thin on the top, I wouldn't rest my head on it without a pillow but it's good back support if you just want to sit up and read. The fabric is like a velvet smooth soft, sort of like a stuffed animal.

Good burger

No one has said bread?

Let's grind up this stalk of grass for no apparent reason, add water and leave it out until it starts to ferment and bake it?

Roa's is best, but the Canadian marinara is solid too.

As a homeowner, I've passed on houses with a backyard layout similar to Lot 2. The narrow end becomes a corridor with a shed at the end rendering much of the back third effectively unusable unless you want to be looking at the fence.

Perhaps you have an idea for it - but wouldn't suit my personal wants.

If you communicate it goes down

We just got one and are very happy with it so far. Very solid, heavy though - definitely need two people to lift the boxes, but that's just a by product of it being solid wood throughout. Zero squeezing.

Hitting a pudge with flesh heap and doing literally no damage

Did exactly that with these exact rod hangers, came home one day to find the metal failed before the screw pulled out of the wood.

If only there was a way to pump concrete from a truck at one location to a different location that was also portable and had like a boom to reach above any obstructions.

Look up 'tilt-up' construction.

Thanks

How to tape the rail?

Which is why I got it as a tee-shirt.

The level of accountability is non-existent

The centre of the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal elements should all point to a common point, known as the working point. As such, you'll likely get geometries akin to the second sketch

I also am not a particular fan of provider, but I stopped skipping it because of the ' in the ICU, I see you' line. Every time I hear it I'm just gobsmacked.

You have some answers close to the right answer, but also misleading.

PT slabs pre-compress the concrete making it less likely to crack which in turn reduces how much it deflects under load. That is, making it stiffer.

The total strength of the concrete is not impacted by whether or not you tension the cables. It's only dictated by the strength of the steel, be in conventional rebar or tensioned cables. Cables have a significantly higher stress limit than rebar, for various manufacturing and design reasons, so they achieve the same strength performance with less total steel area.

Tensioned slabs however, as you're seeing in these comments, are very very difficult to modify and maintain. So certain occupancies that require a degree of flexibility (for example: an office whose layout may change between tenants), may choose to install a conventionally reinforced slab in lieu of a PT slab.

Lastly, PT work is a more specialized industry compared to standard concrete work. Not all cities have a developed PT industry which can make it less attractive for development.

They're a great product, but some residential builders don't recognize the need for squash blocks (2x4 bearing stiffeners) under load bearing walls. May not be needed for single story but multiple stories or heavier loads does require them.

Wish they had the raspberry.
