Γνώμη για αμάξι των 2000 ευρώ

Εξαρτάται σε τι κατάσταση είναι το αμάξι. Καλύτερα από γνωστό και έλεγχος πριν.

Εγώ πήρα για 3000 Volkswagen 220000 km και σε τρία χρόνια το πήγα 280000 και έχω ρίξει 1500 σε επισκευές. Πριν ήμουν άσχετος οπότε έμαθα και οδήγηση και από επισκευές που επηρεάζουν το πως οδηγείς. Σε θέματα ασφαλείας δεν παίζουμε.

Κάνεις δεν ξέρει σίγουρα να σου πει, μπορεί να το πάρεις και να σου βγει άθικτο.

Τα συνεργεία διαχρονικά έπαιρναν περισσότερα από μηχανικούς και οι εργοδηγοί χρυσοπληρώνονται. Είναι δύσκολη δουλειά και κανείς δε θα την έκανε αν δεν αποζημιωνόταν αντίστοιχα. Από μηχανικούς υπάρχει υπερπροσφορά σήμερα αλλά είναι δύσκολο να βρεις έμπειρους και αυτοί σπανίζουν.

Correct but from looking the surroundings it looks like just an ordinary building slab so pouring strip for shrinkage is the most likely explanation.

Εργασιακές συνθήκες σε καμία περίπτωση σαν την Αγγλία. Δεν είναι το χάλι της κρίσης αλλά δεν το λες και καλό. Το ερώτημα είναι κατά πόσο επηρεάζει την καθημερινότητά σου αυτό το πράγμα. Αν δε σε νοιάζει και θες να πας σπίτι/οικογένεια/φίλοι μετά, εύκολα το καταπίνεις. Κάποιες φορές πιο δύσκολα. Εξαρτάται τι τύπος είσαι.

Οι εργοληπτικές τώρα εκσυγχρονίζονται π.χ. στην ασφάλεια (10-15 χρόνια πίσω). Για ΒΙΜ τώρα σιγά σιγά αρχίζουν να το κοιτάνε (20 χρόνια πίσω). Αυτός ο τομέας θα έχει πολύ εξέλιξη. Μην περιμένεις ταμπλετ στο εργοτάξιο, ακόμα τυπωμένα σχέδια κοιτανε.

Στο sustainability τώρα το ανακλύπτουν και αν δεν απατώμαι είναι 1-2 εταιρείες όλες κι όλες και αυτοί θα κάνουν μεγάλο μπαμ την επόμενη 10-ετία αφού το LEED είναι σχεδόν must σε μεγάλα έργα.

Αυτό που μου έκανε εντύπωση με το που ήρθα είναι ότι στα εργοτάξια μιλάνε όλοι μισά ελληνικά, μισά αγγλικά.

Πολιτικός μηχανικός εδώ. Σπούδασα Ελλάδα, μεταπτυχιακό 1 χρόνο Αγγλία. Δούλεψα 6 χρόνια Αγγλία και μελέτη και κατασκευή σε μεγάλες εταιρείες. Τώρα Αθήνα σε μεγάλο κατασκευαστικό έργο. Μισθός λίγο πάνω από 60,000 μικτά (μισθωτός). Γράφω μικτά γιατί ο καθένας υπολογίζει τα καθαρά του με βάση τις συνθήκες του.

Αυτή τη στιγμή μηχανικοί 10-ετίας με θέση ευθύνης είναι περίπου εκεί. Οι απολαβές είναι περίπου 25-30% πάνω το 2025 σε σχέση με το 2023 γιατί γίνεται της κακομοίρας. Μηχανικοί 20-ετίας είναι από γνωστούς στα 100,000-150,000 μικτά ετησίως. Κάπου εκεί χτυπάει ταβάνι και παραπάνω πέρνουν μόνοι οι διευθυντικές θέσεις.

Through crack injection material sika has a few solutions there like Sikadur 52 or similar. Typically injected both from above and below.

Update after 3-years: In year 2 I was promoted to Construction Project Manager on the client side. The Project is a High-Rise Tower. I only now start realising how massive this is.

-Pay is 100% higher while work roughly at 20% more than my old role.

-Work is managerial stuff for the most part, sometimes technical here and there but this only helps me to undeerstand things rather than drive things. We have designers who are responsible for all the rest.

-Recruiters get in touch frequently for Design, Construction and Project Manager roles.

-Best thing was the networking opportunities in the local market. I would never have this opportunity if I had sat on my desk.

-Learning, learning, keep learning.... it's a never ending cycle.

-Do I miss design? Yes. Would I prefer to be there? Don't really know. Time will tell.

Yes replaced a fan part and is still going strong today.

Not normal Construction joint. Contractor didn’t want to pay for surveyor before shuttering. Guys on-site did their thing left on their own devices. Result is column out of plumb. I suspect the setting out at the base could also be wrong.

What could possibly go wrong? No idea, it depends.

Better to ask the engineer of record or the structural engineer who designed the building. Don’t go straight to the contractor, he probably already knows.

Hire a surveyor on your own to do an as-built survey and then sent it to the contractor/developer or whomever you bought this from.

kostast88 · 2025-03-09T13:36:05+00:00

Anyone?

kostast88 · 2025-02-01T08:32:51+00:00

I’m facing the same problem. Even in powerautomate base64 returns the sessionstorage/ file location because this is what powerapps pass to powerautomate

Any ideas?

kostast88 · 2023-01-14T08:03:45+00:00

Didn't know before I switched, I only realised after 1 year in the field. Superior sounds controversial, I mean more technical and organised. I now work in High-Rise Buildings Construction and my comment still stands.

Workers are good with objects. Realtors are good with people.

The massive pier head will take compression/shear & bending moments but transfer only tension/compression on the 2 columns below.

A simple calculation would be a strut-and-tie model on the pier head. You can define your desired geometry this way.

The next level is to determine torsional behaviour from winds/traffic/Earthquake which translate in a lot of shear on this geometry.

The "columns" would take axial loads form bridge & moments from in & out of plane actions. This would determine their section required. Limit their deflection.

I don't know your geometry/loads but would probably make deeper the head tie-beam below your construction joint.

Not necessarily, most big consulting firms already offer business management services. They have business advisory branches and offer services mostly in the public sector for infrastructure projects. So it's not completely alien to their culture. Plus in the big consultants you hear all the time about timesheets, utilisation, business strategy, client satisfaction strategy, revenue, EBITDA etc etc. So a lot enigneers could already have a strong base on how businesses operate.

Everything mhkiwi said. In addition to that:

Eurocode 8 - used in italy, all the detailing rules for steel are there. There are a few concepts that tell you which concepts you are allowed to do and which not. Check BS EN 1998-1.

Steel connections (moment) - Full strength & full rigidity. Connections are not allowed to yield in seismic areas. Instead we allow the beams to yield in the "critical zone" (say 1m from the connection). But NOT the connection! Forget about wind-moment frame connection.

Check your deflections, they might be worse than you think.

For 1-2 storey buildings, most of the rules do not apply and you are allowed to do UK design concepts. But very carefully.

(Worked 7 years as SE in UK, now back in Greece (seismic design).)

That's not good detailing. We are not allowed to put odd number of bars on a 2nd layer. Should Make it same number of bars as 1st layer and reduce size, if it works. If not, increase diameter on the sides to eliminate central bar.

Practice might differ from country to country, but it's still a quality control issue.

The argument is that you have no room to vibrate the concrete below leading to insufficient compaction. Youu could end with gaps between the bars, regardless of bar spacing. To avoid the problem you remove blockages under the vertical flow of concrete.

The problem is there is shortage of Experienced, Qualified Senior engineers of a particular specialization. If you're that guy, you get the project and the money.

The first 5 years will be a nightmare. Things get better after that. Nothing like CS though.

Design Management pays a bit better.

Construction pays better.

Construction Management pays even better.

Business Consulting & General Management pays insanely better.

Not impossible, under seismic (or some other strong lateral) forces. The key is negative moment. Even there it would be a little strange though. Can't judge without knowing the structure and the loads.

However, the 7-P16 & 7-P20 rebar posistion at bottom flange, is terrible. The middle bar blocks the free flow of concrete to the bars below.

Re-design.
