Riddle Me This: The River Dilemma You have just purchased three things at the local market: a wolf, a duck, and a bag of seeds. To get back home, you must travel across a river in a small boat. You are only allowed to have one item with you on your boat at any time. You cannot leave the wolf alone with the duck, because the wolf will eat the duck. You cannot leave the duck alone with the bag of seeds since the duck will eat the seeds. How many trips on the boat must you take to be able to get the wolf, duck, and bag of seeds across to the other side of the river safely? Share your thoughts down in the comments section. #EngineeringChallenge #Engineer #PDHengineer #RiddleMeThis

Cheeky little one for a Sunday. "Can you please check if we can add a hot water system in here. It’s on the second level?" You know we can. It's not actually a space issue. It's about whether the Structural members beneath can support the weight of a full system. Give us 30 minutes. #structuralengineering #structuralengineer #engineeringlife #engineeringlifestyle #engineers2u #barrasonsgroup

Maintenance without proper design is ineffective or impossible. Using Authority-recommended outdated tools (not mine) it's impossible to integrate modeling, design, construction (and maintenance). Consequences? We continue to spend millions on: - mosquito-infested - weed-ridden - blocked with sediment Sedbasins, bioretentions, wetlands, GPTs. It's alarming: we pay millions for the privilege of being bit by mosquitoes in eyesores. The solution? Integrated modelling, design, construction and maintenance (unfortunately only our tools do that). This whole debacle could have been avoided by designig/building the GPT with maintenance in mind and spending like $2k every few months. Fixing it now? Dunno, half a mil? Stay tuned for more videos in this series. #maintenance #wsud #stormwaterdesign #stormwater #stormwaterquality #integration

🤔𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗟𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻? Prepare to be amazed! We've got an eye-opening video that reveals a phenomenon that might challenge and give engineers a bit of a headache 😂. Liquefaction – a mesmerizing yet daunting natural occurrence that can puzzle even seasoned engineers! This intriguing process occurs when seemingly solid soil suddenly behaves like a liquid due to increased water pressure, resulting in ground instability. 🌟 Have you ever encountered this mind-boggling phenomenon in your projects?

Sometimes it's good to slow down, have a beer, and read something that’s already been said. It might not be new, but seeing it through the eyes of legends in fire engineering still holds immense value. Like this classic piece on the ignition of wet and dry wood by radiation from D.L. Sims and Margaret Law. A timeless reminder that some things in our field are just enduring. It never hurts to revisit what I already know, but with a fresh perspective. #Fire #FireSafety #FireEngineeringLegends #ProfessionalGrowth #TimelessKnowledge

At Kent Engineering, we uncover the origins of a failure, accident, malfunction, deterioration, or underperformance—simply put, what happened—and then we investigate further to understand why and how it happened. When we know why, we help to ensure you can move forward confidently. https://lnkd.in/ghndBQbh #scientificconsulting #engineering #structuralengineer #forensics #forensicengineering #materialsandcorrosion #litigationsupport #buildingsciences #weldinganddesign #craneconsulting #kentengineering

💥 #Dynamite in Construction: Power, Precision, and Progress 💥 Sometimes, building the future means breaking a few rocks—literally! In construction, dynamite isn’t just an explosive; it’s a tool of precision, transforming rugged landscapes into buildable ground. The science and control behind each blast show the fascinating blend of raw power and engineering expertise that brings impossible projects to life. 🏔️➡️🏗️ From tunnels to foundations, explosives have revolutionized how we tackle tough terrain. But with great power comes great responsibility. In a world increasingly conscious of safety and sustainability, the use of explosives in construction requires unparalleled skill, precision, and respect for the environment. Explosives are more than just a “boom”—they’re a controlled force that can carve paths, shift mountains, and lay the groundwork for incredible infrastructure. Here’s to the teams making each controlled blast count! 📽️: Unknown All rights reserved to respective owner. DM for credits.
