Anyone think this architect might have been having a laff?

Hint....You might have to turn your head slightly to the right :wink:

    This happened in my previous place of employment. Someone was drawing up options for the layout of a visitor centre. Unfortunately one design had to be binned on account of an unintended juxtaposition of a circular auditorium and a long curving wing of rooms opening off a corridor. IIRC the conversation went something like:

    "Err... why've you drawn a kn0b?"
    "Eh? I haven't! ... Oh."

    I wonder whether the architect has managed to produce any successful erections?

    True story - My first year structures professor at architecture school used to explain bending moments by holding his tie straight out in front of him and saying something like "here I have a stiffening member..."

    When working with steel structures for reuse there will be a dismantling sequence ( plan) . the one for rebuilding is called. yup "An Erection sequence" always gets a giggle from the 1st year apprentices
