Ancient engineers: let’s make it work.
Modern engineers: we need to make sure it breaks at approximately 36 months to ensure low ability to claim warranty while also ensuring the customer believes it could have been a fluke.
Or, roughly translated into engineer speak…”anyone can build an aqueduct, it takes skill to build an aqueduct using the minimum amount of material required”.
Anyone can design a bridge that stays standing, but an engineer can design a bridge that barely stays standing
Seems like a lot of RCE propoganda in here
I've never met an engineer who wanted to intentionally design products to break.
The beancounters on the other hand...
It depends on the way you think about it. When designing, I want all my parts (other than user replaceable wear components) to fail at the same time. That means nothing is the weakest link, failing earlier than the design otherwise could handle.
Anyone can design a 70 mile long aqueduct. It takes a skilled engineer to design a 70 mile long aqueduct using the minimal amount of materials necessary.
Something something anyone can build a strong bridge, only an engineer can build a bridge that just barely doesn't collapse
Maybe the real stone bridges where the collapse we had along the way
As I learned in engineering school...
"Any idiot can build a bridge which doesn't fall down. It takes an engineer to build a bridge which bearly doesn't fall down"
Saved this post waiting for a random Lemming to write a seven paragraph essay about Roman engineering.
And/or the use of math in same
Bahaha! You think an engineer even knows how to work autocad?
Maybe 10 or 20 years ago, this mighy apply. At this point they leave the hard work for everyone else to figure out and draw up.
They just grab thier stamp.
(This, at least, applies to one's in the US. I apologize to any one who actually applies their degree to their field)
You've never done an fea?
We just had an engineer quit because he didn't like doing AutoCAD. Now that we're transiting into Revit, all of the rest of our engineers are not so happy...
Can confirm. SOURCE: I'm a drafter.
