In case you’re in need of some instructions on how to comply with modern building codes in your Holiday (that’s right, I said Holiday!) preparations:
No, I didn’t create this. The title block lists Winzler & Kelly of Eureka, CA as the firm. I have no idea if they’re even real. I can tell by the fact that it references codes from the ’90′s, that it’s not very recent, either. However, I thought it might be a nice thing to share with anyone who appreciates decent engineering humor.
Happy Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/New Year/Festivus Holidays!
Didn’t you hear? Politically correct is the new subversive.
Yes, Winzler & Kelly is a Real Engineering Firm with offices throughout California and the Pacific.
well one would think building codes don’t change much. that being said, this probably gets passed around engineering circles year after year. similar to the santa physics that seems to come through my inbox every year.
Scott: One might think such a thing if they were not involved in design or construction. However, codes constantly change; sometimes quite a lot.
