Usually just means things get hotter faster or slower. Black cars heat up fast, white cars a bit slower. But after a few hours in 110 sun it's all scotching hot regardless of paint.

In Arizona it doesn't me matter what color steel is, it's all hot enough to burn you.

I was architect on first 3D printed home in Arizona, and everything claimed in this video is wrong. More time, cost, and labor than standard construction. Only positive is you can easily build fun curves in concrete.

As a residential architect I totally agree. Pavers (concrete or brick) are typically cheaper than concrete these days anyways. Usually only use concrete like this when we want it exposed aggregate to show off the concrete texture. Celebrate the material as it is, don't fake stuff.

Because it's one of the most expensive construction materials in the US. Even more so than structural steel framing.

Looks like you're correct

Appears in a more rural setting where fake buildings are not common. The extra 'bump outs' add more cost to build. Windows on side are typical residential scale. I doubt it's a fake building, but of course can't tell for sure.

My guess is probably lot line and setbacks create odd angle (building envelope has an acute angle), so this was the bad design solution. Source - I'm a residential architect and see dumb solutions like this too often.

Talk to appliance repair guys, they really do make them to break today. LG & Samsung especially design parts to fail and cost too much to repair so you just opt to upgrade. The old compressors just last longer.

Unpopular opinion in imgur echo chamber. But the stats show you are correct. Long term the pension system will have major solvency issues.

Thanks for the IBC clarification. yes type 5 construction is wood frame, type 1 cast concrete. People always confuse this with floor #'s.

Ran as a progressive Dem, then immediately switched once elected. Lied to all us AZ voters. I don't know anyone in my state that likes her.

They are not reinforced with steel rebar. It's very much not legal to do this. The bricks break apart when a car hits it.

Phoenix has been inhabited for thousands of years. It has seasonal rivers. Vegas does not.

Exactly - looks terrible and the grout will get dirty and look even nastier over time

New home construction has not met demand for 12 years. Investors are only small part of the supply crunch.

Tax cuts for the rich & corporations, increase federal taxes on the poor (Rick Scott), & bunch of bigoted/racist stuff dusted on top

This is a dumb gimmick, it'd only lower your gas bill less than $2-$4 and result in defunding infrastructure.

More French died in the summer from disease than in winter. Winter gets all the credit but mosquitos, diarrhea, & infections did more.

It's also really annoying & messy (even when done right) way by to make pasta. Once you've tried it once just use a bowl or stand mixer.
