10 pm

Finding an autorickshaw at 10 pm had never felt this dangerous of a task to Hajra before. As she kept scanning at the passing vehicles with the alertness of an owl, she continuously held onto her valuables using both hands, clutching onto, from one arm, her purse in which she…

What is so special about the letter ‘L’?

An Engineer’s Ode to the ‘Letter of Love’ — Believe it or not, but the letter that gives us some of the most existential words in the world, like Love and Life, deserves more praise than one would think. The letter that comprises merely two lines — one that goes from top to bottom and the other that continues…

The Engineering Marvel that Sits in Greece

The Rion-Antirion bridge is one of the world’s longest multi-span cable-stayed bridges and the longest of the fully suspended type. Crossing some of the most active earthquake fault lines in Europe, and with nothing solid at the bottom of the sea to build it on, the bridge seemed an impossible…

The mindblowing way in which the Indiana Bell building was moved and rotated 90 degrees, all while in operation, says a lot about the marvels of engineering

According to reports, ‘no one inside felt it move’ — In 1929, the Central Union Telephone Company Building was purchased by the Indiana Bell Telephone Company and was initially planned to be demolished and replaced by a much larger headquarters on the site. However, since the building provided essential services to the city, demolishing the building did not seem viable…

The Woman on the Moon

Are you familiar with the woman who lives on the moon? I am pretty sure many of you may have never even heard of her up until now. I was introduced to her when I was seven. What I found particularly enamoring about this forlorn character is the ambiguity and…

People do not call me by my name…

…and I do not know how to deal with it — I will get right to the point here. Let me first state it out in the open: Saad is my first name, Ali my middle, and Faizi my last. So, you add all of them up, and you get a full Saad Ali Faizi. You see, I prefer being referred…

Have you ever wondered… how tall buildings are demolished within crowded urban areas?

With the growing and changing needs of today, as well as the limited design life of every building, demolition is a necessary undertaking, which requires due diligence and careful planning.

Have you ever wondered… how you can artificially make it rain?

While we still have not reached the point where we can control the weather (and thank goodness for that!), it does seem as if the winds are changing. The technology of cloud seeding has enabled Mother Nature’s force of precipitation (i.e. rainfall, hail, snowfall, etc.) to be artificially induced. …
