Public - 6:59 PM
Here in Benicia on a saturday night. Shit.
Well, guess to where I have earned a trip... heh
when you're doing a grading take-off, you break up your drawings into a grid of perhaps 10'x10' (28" x 40" drawings, scale accordingly). I have a grid of some 3,600 points. At each point, you find the original elevation and then the new elevation.
This is complicated somewhat when both contour lines are on the same drawing, the only difference being that the new contours are bold, the original contours somewhat faint.
I'm about a quarter of the way done.
And how's this for an Engineering Badass: I goddam figured out the 3-way calling on my company's phone. And now, instead of finishing my work on a saturday night, i'm chatting w/the boys on the phone.
Damn, I'm good
OK and now i gotta go and work...
all my love,
James
