    An average day

    On any real construction project, the contractor would have an engineer design the shoring system or determine if shoring is even needed.

    Conarb Las Vegas again

    It was certainly the talk of the news here. Hotel/Casino's are inspected yearly but things happen. I trust the fire inspectors in Clark County (most of what people know of Las Vegas is actually unincorporated Clark County including the Strip) but there is a lot of political influence and...

    Planes you don't normally see at airports

    Nope. The rope gets further away each presidency and even the local cops can't cross it.

    Arizona Self-Certification

    7 years???? Most permits in Las Vegas are pulled within three weeks unless there are zoning issues. Depending on complexity that can take a month or two.

    DIY Project

    Unsanded grout is for small joints so larger spaces would need sanded grout. I agree that elastomeric caulk is the way to go

    An average day

    Zurn wall hydrant in a weird place. Don't normally see them on houses and two together is strange. I put them in restroom walls for the custodians to use

    Simplisafe

    Simplisafe uses cellular phone frequencies to communicate to the monitoring company and the base station uses low level power to communicate wirelessly from the detector to the base station. I know because I've had it for three plus years. You plug the base station into the wall and it has...

    An average day

    It looks like it's wrapped with ten mil tape. They make products to protect copper pipe which is what I assume it to be.

    The mobile site works fine and I can live without tapatalk. XenForo is a lot better than Vbulletin. Thanks Jeff.

    Factory Mutual Global Standards

    They are requiring only FM Global certification? They aren't the only ones that do it. Any roof manufacturer can provide this data for the roof you want as well as standard details.

    I can't see Jeff's pictures either, the Average Day thread is still not showing correctly and it's not jumping to the first unread post like the other forums I'm on. I've removed the app and downloaded with no luck.

    Twist on Anti-Siphon Adapter

    We have something similar in the Las Vegas Valley except it is a pin that strips the threads when backed off, if you can back it off, so a hose can't be used on the faucet.

    It's giving me errors on Android. I can see current posts which show a snippet of information but when click on it, the posts won't show. Like when I click on Average Day, the last post is from 2012 not from this week. Also it won't remember the last page I was on like it used to and still does...
