for example, have to cope with water backing up behind them (their abutments often have strategically placed openings to let high flood water drain through). Suspension bridges that carry cars tend to bear the same loads all day long, though, often sited in windy estuaries, they also have ...
In 2000, a bridge in Wisconsin that supports frequent overweight loads collapsed. A federal study found that 18 percent of bridge weight limits are either not posted or are incorrect. The same study found 26 percent of our bridges structurally deficient [source: USA Today]. What overweight load...
As an architect, I've often wondered why do we monumentalize the ancient wonders ofcivilizationsthat collapsed such a long time ago? I've traveled the world studying ancient innovation, and what I've found are Indigenous technologies from living cultures that are still in use. And some of th...
Again, our land doesn’t have some kind of capitalist privilege. No one has built a shield over America. If climate were so bad in so many regions, we’d also already be starving, or at least having serious trouble growing anything. Even cows on scrub oak. So, you know? All of this...

In a few cases, there may be as many as 22 rockfalls on the same day during the first period and 5 rockfalls on the same day during the second period. During the first period, days with rockfalls with a mass between 10 and 50 kg are the most common. These masses are associated with...

fer mutants show collapsed or short root hairs that even burst after some growth [153]. The pollen tubes of anx1/anx2 (anxur 1/anxur 2) double mutants also burst during growth, thus preventing fertilization. Strikingly, ANX1/2 are preferentially expressed in pollen tubes and ANX1/2 ...
