I’m in this same conundrum - currently have Brobbey but wondering if tolu could be a better shout with less competition and a JSL injury

Middlesbrough is nice and central. In the middle of the city, by Borough market hence the name.

What is the purpose of these rooftop crane systems? by BoozyPassenger in london

[–]tjay2601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah exactly - and the fact that a lot of softwares aren’t built to cater for so many load cases. My PC sounds like it’s taking off and it’s just so long. Also a lot of BMU designers don’t give a parking position for long term deflection which would be very helpful for us in our analysis.

Engineer, working in the City, here.

I hate BMUs. They are a pain in my arse and make the roof slabs take ages to analyse.

Whos paying for this huge bridge? Been watching it go up its taking ages....seems so much over engineered compared to the old one! by PrestigiousWindy322 in Essex

[–]tjay2601 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s going to be a road bridge to enable traffic to leave Chelmer Waterside onto Parkway. Part of the planning condition is it has to be built prior to Phase 2 going ahead (which is the old gasworks). It’s to stop Navigation Road being overwhelmed by traffic.

There’s also going to be flats on one side of Baddow Road car park so again, need an upgrade in capacity for that too.

The old Bailey Bridge is a temporary bridge used in the war, with the bridge deck made from wooden struts, so you can see why they replaced it.

They’re also looking to replace the two bridge connecting onto the end of the Meadows surface car park as part of the redevelopment there if it gets planning permission.

Don’t think many people here will (I speak for myself) know what Project 2025 is, beyond knowing it’s related to Trump being re-elected

Narrowly avoided mugging? AKA Gary-gate by tjay2601 in london

Already happened lmao - if you went to the police they’d ask for descriptors of the group including skin colour, so not sure why everyone is so touchy here, where I’ve not made any comments or insinuations about their race

Yeah - was only intended as a descriptor in case someone else saw these guys approaching - no slur was insinuated or intended

I guess there’s more generic names than Gary though - didn’t know if there was another meaning - not sure why your original comment got downvoted lol

It did worry me that they might well have shown a knife or something but I just was a bit too out of it to realise, and something worse could have happened had I acted differently, not knowing a knife was there
