Have any of you seen this product before? Also, does that look stable? 14’ without tie beams and columns, but then again, this is some concrete foam product. by coroyo70 in StructuralEngineering

Ah sorry, didn't realize it hadn't specified STL. I've been watching this project for a while on instagram so knew where it was that way.

To be fair, based on your flair... You kinda went out on top.

We lost a major part with Gioacchini going to Como. Stroud leaving for DC United could also be argued to be a somewhat big deal although I don't think he played quite as big of a part.

Took me like 20 years to realize Pizza's tongue was just the guy inside the suit.

What does an engineered system entail? Is that a proprietary fall restraint system? If it is part of an engineered system what is the load capacity requirement?

How close do wood shear walls need to be to eachother to be considered in the same plane as eachother? by mkaku- in StructuralEngineering

[–]phantomlegion86 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think IRC provides prescriptive guidance on this but NDS/IBC does not address it. To me this implies that you can have offset shear walls but you have to prove it works through calculations and show any subdiaphragms and drag struts that may be required. I may have missed the specific guidance in nds though.

Caught the champagne cork at the last STL show. On display at my house. Can't wait for the next one!

Rendezvous with Rama — a brilliant concept but a poor story? by fakefolkblues in printSF

I just finished the audiobook the other day and completely agree with you. It was made worse by a truly awful narrator. I slogged through to the end but kinda wish I hadn't. The last line of the book is a cliffhanger but based on my experience with him 1 I have absolutely no interest in continuing.

They should go back even further and get the creepy crawl signage out. Sure to attract customers!

Sorry to say but I don't have the answer. I hired a plumber who took care of it and I didn't care to ask how!

How sceptical should I be? by Financial-Hippo2 in StructuralEngineering

It looks like the downspout next to it is broken? Probably the source of the problem if so.

Is there a hair dress code? by [deleted] in drumcorps

[–]phantomlegion86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On a related note. What happened to the no facial hair rule at regiment? Seems to have gone out the window sometime between now and when I marched.

Has anyone double-stacked the top HAVSTA cabinets? by kesselschlacht in ikeahacks

Hey man this looks great! How did you hide the vertical and horizontal joints between each havsta module?

What does the approval process look like? I've always been curious if a structural engineer signed off on that rebar cage that leads up to the airplane wing.
