![]() ![]() Calculations are also based on load-testing specifically testing is required to obtain reliable engineering properties for use in making calculations. If we reject load testing in favor of calculations that makes no sense to me. If a structural member has, in effect, been load tested, I consider that fact to normally be a reliable basis for forming an opinion. The question is what is a generally reliable basis for forming an opinion. These are visual inspections and the question is not a matter of being absolutely certain as to the safety or adequacy of a structural member or arrangement. There is a brutal reality to that opinion. "the length of time any structural element has been standing has absolutely nothing to do with it being adequate or safe". !(upload://ssT9V5t45yjlgXqiFRXL04eXtqw.gif) They usually get the point after changes and delays. As a designer and municipal inspector also, I see too many framing contractors just winging it on the engineered lumber. They should also call the person responsible for the design to clarify anything that is unclear. There is a brutal reality to that opinion.įramers, call your lumber dealer and ask for help ! " the length of time any structural element has been standing has absolutely nothing to do with it being adequate or safe". Fortunately, the house was condemned and posted, so nobody was there at the time it collapsed. ![]() Part of a house house collapsed about 2 weeks after I issued that report. even though it had been previously fully loaded. I have seen it first hand, and in one case after doing some calculations warned of a probable collapse of some main framing members in a house. A fully loaded structure that was not done correctly can just barely support that load, and at the same time weaken the structure to the point where the next full load will cause a collapse. I agree with ya in general, except for that one. If the support has been fully loaded in the past, which is normally the case in a resale house, and there is no apparent performance issue, it is probably okay even if it was not done to the book. I am absolutely amazed sometimes by how much thought goes into doing things wrong However, those prescriptive model code provisions can not be applied to engineered lumber (like LVL's and I-Joists) which requires a case-by-case evaluation due to the higher capacity and special requirements.įor engineered lumber, I think the best thing for an HI to do is look for visual indications of problems, and defer to an SE as Mike noted for anything beyond that. Those prescriptive provisions are fairly easy to apply for someone who understands framing. There is a big difference between “conventional lumber framing” and “engineered lumber framing”.įor conventional framing with typical solid sawn wood members, there are very prescriptive requirements in model building codes like the IRC related to allowable spans and suppport requirements for things like wood joists/rafters and wood headers/girders.

![]() ![]() However, their attitude leaves a lot to be desired. I will give them kudos for getting things here without damage. They met us in Virginia the very next day, and we had all of our things expertly unpacked in hours! I would definitely use them again.įair. The only thing that broke was our children's tea set), and those guys worked their tails off, packing and loading in one day. They were incredibly nice, professional and we were so impressed with them. The person who did our estimate ended up underestimating a bit (but we had a contract so only paid the original agreed upon price), but the five guys who showed up to do our (3rd floor walk up move) made it work really well. We were a little nervous because their insurance is not great, but our experience with the company was professional and pleasant all the way through- how many times can you say that about any move?! The area we moved to was right on the cusp of being considered a "long distance" move, so I was relieved that they agreed to move us quickly. After a few estimates, we went with Roadway because their price was comparable to the other companies we asked for estimates from, and they agreed to move us immediately (instead of waiting goodness knows how many weeks for our furniture to be delivered). We used Roadway to move us out of the city to Virginia, and used them to pack as well as load. We will definitely use them again and recommend to anyone we know! Opposed to a lot of companies out there, with Roadway it was easier and faster to reach the customer service dept after the pick up date than it was to reach the sales department before we booked.īottom line - Roadway moving was worth every penny we paid, I usually try to find the best deal financially but when it comes to your movers the best deal you can have is a deal with a company that delivers their promises and Roadway did it BIG TIME! We had read reviews online and knew we'd hired a reliable company to move us yet we still feel that our crew exceeded expectations, they did EVERYTHING to please us, and always with a smile and a positive attitude!Įverything was packed and wrapped quickly, thoroughly and professionally - needless to say not even one single damage!Įvery time we called the office, a courteous rep picked up the phone and addressed any question or concern we had. On the day of the move the crew showed up clean & uniformed and in a brand new truck. No harm - they were just incredibly efficient.If it looks great, it sounds great, and everybody writes that it's great then - it's GREAT! The only reservations I had were that the packer was far more qualified and faster than the loader, and they packed a couple things I hadn't planned to put in the truck. Moving stinks, they were super friendly and weren't bothered that I was not helping at all - even though I had originally planned to but probably would've slowed them down. Uhaul gives an hourly rate after the first two hours and I was glad. At 4pm they were still going and I asked if they'd stay another hour to finish. ![]() The two fellas arrived at 1:55 and were ready and waiting at 2 and worked tirelessly moving some very heavy furniture. He called back the next day and verified that the move helpers would be there at 2pm. The receipt from uhaul didn't indicate the afternoon time requested so I called Peak to verify time. They had a good rating on that site and the price was a little below other's so I reserved a couple hours with two guys to help me load my rented uhaul in the afternoon. “ I found Peak Movers through Uhaul's movers service. ![]() This is the reason why you better compare competing moving quotes from licensed movers with our tool here.

It is thanks to the support of the dedicated folks at Microsoft that we were able to achieve our vision for the game, and thanks to the passion of the Xbox community that Cuphead found an audience.

He said this week it remains to be proven whether Willis or Wade had a financial interest in the outcome of the case. It will be up to Fulton Superior Judge Scott McAfee to rule. GRINGLAS: Well, since prosecutors responded to these claims, there have been a flurry of motions with each side accusing the other of misrepresenting the facts at hand. So what should we expect from today's hearing? What's going to happen? ![]() And to be clear, A, these misconduct claims have nothing to do with the efforts by Trump and others to overturn the election here. Eventually, prosecutors acknowledged the relationship but deny any conflict of interest. More than half of the co-defendants are now moving to disqualify Willis, including Trump. Roman argued that the longer his case dragged on, the more money Wade raked in to spend on vacations with Willis. Michael Roman, who worked for the Trump campaign and is facing seven felony charges, accused Willis of benefiting from his prosecution due to her personal relationship with prosecutor Nathan Wade. SAM GRINGLAS, BYLINE: So this case was trudging along toward trial when one of the defendants filed a very serious motion. I spoke earlier with WABE's Sam Gringlas about the allegations against her. Now, this comes after one of the defendants accused DA Fani Willis of an improper relationship with a special prosecutor. Today in Georgia, a judge will determine whether a Fulton County district attorney should be disqualified from prosecuting the state's election interference case against former President Donald Trump and 14 others. ![]() ![]() ![]() I assume you’re referring to the train rolling by. How were you able to represent the styles of your peers and friends so well? Joey Ahlbum created a beat chart according to the soundtrack, and we worked from that.

It seems like a million years ago… I would say that the different lettering forms were guided by Charlie, but they are definitely Zephyr-style. Maybe that sounds like a contradiction, but graffiti writers will always recognize my stuff immediately. There is a generic quality to my graffiti, but there is also something very distinct about it. The graffiti styles used for the words “Pop,” “Rap,” and “Break” were all variations of things I was doing on walls and trains at the time. What was this like for you? How did you develop and mix the various styles – the "Wild Style" morphing, the styles for "Pop," "Rap," and "Break"? He wanted to bring “black book” drawings to life. He had very specific ideas about everything in the film, and was closely involved in developing the aesthetic of the art in the opening sequence. A writer’s sketchbook is carefully guarded as it can be used as evidence in a graffiti vandalism case and link a writer to previous illicit works.Ĭharlie Ahearn had that vision. It is a writer's most valuable property, containing all or a majority of the person's sketches and pieces. It is often used to sketch out and plan potential graffiti, and to collect tags from other writers. How did the idea of animating the graffiti come about? Are there other examples from the era that inspired you?Ī black book or "piece book" is a graffiti artist's sketchbook. The Wild Style animation project was my introduction, although I used to make flip books. Were you involved with animation before Wild Style? Zephyr painting a train in New York, mid-1990s The sequence is a celebration of graff writers and the subcultures they travel in, everyone riding the Wild Style train conducted by Charlie Ahearn.īased in New York City, graffiti writer ZEPHYR looks back on his work for the Wild Style title sequence. The opening title animation features key art by Zephyr, one of the legendary pioneers of graffiti in the late 1970s and who appears in Wild Style as Z-Roc, essentially a version of himself. The piece became the basis for a number of the film's cornerstone materials: it was the basis for the film's logo, designed by Tracy 168, founder of the Wild Style Crew it was painted as a mural by Zephyr, Revolt, and Sharp in 1983 and it was the inspiration for the main titles. Ahearn hired graffiti writer DONDI to paint the window-down subway car piece that appears early in the film. In the summer of 1980, director Charlie Ahearn and hip-hop pioneer Fab 5 Freddy brought them all together when they began working on the film that was to become Wild Style. Here are the greats becoming great: writers Lee, Zephyr, and Lady Pink, dancers Crazy Legs and the Rock Steady Crew, turntablists Grandmaster Flash and the Cold Crush Bros., MCs Double Trouble and Rammellzee, and many more.
