I'll add to the "Structural Engineer" humor

We had a project where some of the site piping dimensions were missing, but we had to design a tower that would sit near the existing piping. The structural engineer went off with the drawings and sequestered himself for the rest of the day. He emerged with a design of the monsterous steel supports. When questioned how he figured out how to ensure missing the piping, he said "Adjustable crossbracing!"

This same engineer insisted that a 4000 ton capacity storage silo be located at a specific centerline in the field. We showed him the interferences at his chosen spot. His solution........."Move Power Plant 6"!"

Needless to say, he's no longer with us!

By the way, 356D, I'm a degreed Civil Engineer also!
