good attitude OP, just remember most folks in DIY just want to help you out, getting all butthurt and pissy because you did something dumb just puts blood in the water for folks that just want to watch you goonwell dig

OMGVBFLOL posted:Is the idea to have a recirculator going all the time, and have the tub basically be a waterfall fountain when its not bathtime? That'd be kinda neat. if you would recycle the water into either greywater or lawn or garden irrigation it could even in a weird planet be eco friendly

Adiabatic posted:You can totally do it yourself, just be sure to research the poo poo out of your local codes. There's quick reference books online and they cost like $15 for each discipline. It's important to take a positive attitude with building code because you bet your rear end it's there for a very practical and important reason. I personally find it fun to figure out why, but that bit's not necessary as long as you follow them to the letter. what the lurking mod says, just dont gently caress with electrical, or plumbing unless you have researched the poo poo out of what you are doing and maybe ask for help from a pro or at least one to bounce your grand vision off of.

just for clarification since y'all engies speak layman like poo poo, the I shape of the i beam is much better at distributing load, is lighter and in the case of long spans is much more affordable than an equivalent piece of solid material even assuming you could get one in an extended span for larger homes, correct?

dis astranagant posted:A solid beam only really takes load on the edges so an i beam saves weight by being as close to all edge as possible while still being one piece. Snak posted:It's the same concept as putting a fuller in the blade of a sword. You are making a blade that is stronger for its finished weight than a blade without a fuller. in between these two posts i stated getting a feel for the idea thanks folks

got any sevens posted:How do swords work? What is a fuller? commonly known as a "blood groove" it reduces weight and concentrates the weight and force towards the edges so its lighter and easier to maneuver but thicker and stronger to resist a cross blade or actual hits and wear on the edges.

The Chairman posted:When you bend a beam, it forms an arc shape, such that it's in compression (crushed) at the top and tension (stretched) at the bottom. The material at the very center of the beam doesn't deform in bending, so it's not carrying any load. The further away the material is from the center, the more it contributes to resisting bending. i see what you did there  and thank you
