The headline showing #road #diversion distance in kilometres isn't incorrect - its exactly how #CivilEngineering in #UK is carried out today - all work is done in #metric and only converted back to miles / yards for the purposes of roadsigns and maps!

The fastest path through environmental review is designing a project small enough to be exempt. This is the trick California quick-build engineers know: scope your project to the exemption criteria before you start design, not after. If you design first and ask about CEQA later, you will almost always find something that needs review. Design for the exemption from day one. #MrBarricade #CEQA #QuickBuild #CivilEngineering #CaliforniaPlanning

When a retaining wall fails, it is almost never a surprise to the wall. The signs were there. Horizontal cracking indicates bending stress at design limits. Vertical cracks can mean differential settlement. Bulging means rotation - the soil is winning. Base displacement and lost batter are visible precursors to catastrophic failure. Walls that fail suddenly almost always had a distress history. Inspection matters. #MrBarricade #RetainingWalls #CivilEngineering #Infrastructure
