"If you look at note 3, it says right here: 'Then a miracle occurs.'"

"Well that does it! That's the last time I work on a bridge designed by Sidney Harris."

Funny, this sure doesn't look like Utah.

This, is your solution to traffic congestion!!!

Teacher to student.

"This is why one second of arc at the beginning IS important!!!!"

Student to teacher.

"This was a digital rounding error, we should have used twelve significant digits instead of five."

Project manager to Engineer.

Well from what they both say, it's a resolution issue, I'll put that into my lessons learnt folder and move onto the nuclear reactor, you guys can obviously fix this.

Bridge by M.C. Escher

It was suggested that another lane be added to the new river bridge today by the Mayor and city manager, no reason was given for the sudden changes...

If we keep the blueprints folded over like this do you think we can blame it on the draftsmen?

"What we have heya is a failya to comoonicate!", said the Warden, seeing the result of Cool Hand Luke's chain gang labor.

Under budget. Check.

On time. Check.

Done right. ......

Hey two out of three is good enough for public works!

Oops, wrong budget. Check... lol

Dont worry! After the next earthquake the two sides will line right up!

To TCMTECH: Don't worry - like fine wine, it'll improve with earthquakesage. LOL

Like this?

design by Ikea?

"I've heard of hardware hacking before but this is ridiculous."

"The ones that don't want to do the loop will stay in this lane." - The "Hot Wheels" generation is calling the shots now!

You claimed you've built bridges before on your CV. You failed to mention it was for your slot car track!!!

This'll fix it!

Merge left--immediately!

"Seems our architect flunked Sheng Fui as well. Hmmm...wonder how well he floats."

They should have called it "PhotoChop"

ROFLMAO!

A little long, but ok....

...say 1000 words per picture?

"We built it just like the print"!!!

Raised and lowered by scooting it right and left, respectively. Very clever! Instant orthogonal translation without the need for a wedge - let alone a quantum teleporter! Dup this, China!

It looked OK from the office window....

This is what happens when 2 different survey crews ASSUME they are using the same control points.

Ha! Datums....

It could have been worse: at least we don't have to figure out how to connect the 10 mile English channel tunnel to the 16 Kilometer French channel bridge.

Has some continental drift occured ? I don't mind, except it sounds like it's going in the wrong direction !

i-Bridge app by Schmuttfone....making monumental errors has never been easier.

This is what happened when the "all-knowing" Director took over the design of the bridge prior to the filming of the movie "True Lies".....

Opppsss, did CaptMoosie Foxtrot Utah again?

Well it looked good on paper.

Gotta be a Government-design bridge.......

Exactly the end result of when the Federal Government and the design engineer uses the Metric System, and the General Contractor uses the English measurement system!

This sort of situation is bound to happen when Iron Workers have "liquid lunches"!

I followed the bearings on the map.......wait........what's magnetic declination mean?

Your shovel-ready stimulus dollars at work...

"YOU DIDN'T BUILD IT"....

"The next smartass wot says 'I told you so' is gonna SWIM home. Got it?!"

"Ok Red, call the guys at Chicaynes-R-Us to finish it off and we're done!"

When 3D printing goes wrong.....

Dang, dang, dang.

"Right lane ends"

I dunno, he was babbling something about drawing match lines.

The answer is nothing. Nothing is greater than God, Nothing is worse than the devil, the rich never have nothing and if you eat nothing you will die. Do you have any more riddles?

No Worries, a traffic circle (roundabout) can fix this!

Priceless !

Where is my old PAPER metric to american conversion chart? -- JHF

The decision maker was a government bureaucrat who could not get an engineering job in the private sector.

Looks like crosseyed Joe forgot his glasses AGAIN!

"Guys, next trans-Atlantic bridge we build, let's settle on a driving convention FIRST!"

What happens when you ignore the curve offsets, it becomes a straight line.

If you can't Dodge 'em, Ram 'em!

(just curious: is that thing a hovercraft? Looks like, what with that mist coming out the sides, and that jacked-up front)

GA+

OOPSY!!!!

Right Lane Exit Only

Boat Ramp

"Now, remember to step out of the way when them two neo-Nazis come haulin' arse off this ramp!"

I thought GPS was Grid Point Seven. Oh those acronyms.

"Okay, so this is where the toll booth goes."

I cut it off twice, and it's still too short!

Hey, Joe, bring that thousand-ton come-along over here!

Dear CR4 members, I have a problem and I need a solution by Monday morning when my boss returns from vacation.............

Call in sick.

Problems are opportunities guys.....it's unlimited overtime for everyone now!

nothing a ramp cannot fix

Ooooooh! The Dukes of Hazzard!

I sure don't miss that show, but thanks for posting all the same (cuz that show reminds me of Charlie's Angels which also aired about that same time. Be still my heart! Lawdy!)

"When I told you a mile back to move it a half degree to the right, I meant my right NOT YOUR RIGHT."

I told you a half mile back it was crooked but you just kept saying "these things have a way of working them selfs out"....what now John Boy

Yes I am sure this is where the off ramps were supposed to go.

Back when I did good work, the boss didn't know my name, he'll know it now, just as I reach retirement.

Must have been a strong current that day.

With the U.S. looking to outsourcing everything to China to save $, coupled with everyone having their hand in the cookie jar, the evident outcome was never questioned.

Another job that wasn't "shovel ready".

Hubble's mirror optics designers new carer as civil bridge designers. Oop's
