Kengineering: Masonry Repair?
http://kengineering.blogspot.com/2009/07/masonry-repair.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Note the 2x6 supporting masonry just to the lower left of the window. That can't meet code. I can imagine the conversation with the building inspector: "Well, it's been standing without the board for five centuries. We consider this our belt and suspenders approach to reinforcing." "Um, I don't see either.". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Some Kind of Einstein. Leaning Church of Caen.

Kengineering: March 2009
http://kengineering.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 31, 2009. On Tuesdays I play in a soccer league near Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood. The field house is actually a converted manufacturing plant. There's also a very large Hispanic population nearby. The resulting aesthetic is a combination of Aztec murals and loading docks. To top it off, they aways have some Latino Pop blasting through the sound system. It's a unique place to play, to say the least. Links to this post. Monday, March 30, 2009. Links to this post.

http://kengineering.blogspot.com/2009/07/leaning-church-of-caen.html
Tuesday, July 28, 2009. Leaning Church of Caen. Talk about settlement issues. The leaning tower in Pisa is not the only structure to baffle geotechnical experts. This church in Caen. France was built on the soft soil of a former river bed. Legend has it that the King who commissioned the church did so reluctantly in order to attain the Pope's permission to divorce his wife.

Kengineering: Expressed Structure
http://kengineering.blogspot.com/2009/09/expressed-structure.html
Monday, September 7, 2009. Hello, nice post. Do you know the author of the building? June 2, 2010 at 5:24 AM. Sorry, I do not know the designer of this building. Judging from the finishing within, it appears to be an administrative building for the adjacent theater. There may be ticketing kiosks on the first floor and offies on the upper floors.

Kengineering: May 2008

Monday, May 19, 2008. Home Sweet… Airport Concourse. This is your captain speaking. We are on our final approach to O'Hare Airport in Chicago. Winds are 20 miles per hour from the Northwest, and the current ground temperature is 14 degrees Fahrenheit. By the time the plane lined up for landing, I had a perfect aerial view of the city - a skyline that no city in Europe can match. The excitement of returning home insulated me from the cold as I walked up the long jet way into a new chapter of my life.
