Local Indy joint Jockamo's Pizza makes several breakfast pizzas, my favorite being the Farmhouse, available only on weekends and New Year's Day. Billed as "Hangover Pizzas," this one in particular has housemade chorizo sausage gravy, scrambled eggs, chicken, cheddar, bacon.

Breakfast pizza is loving incredible.

They needed to be even more covert than that, because the fix wasn't in the basement. There are a series of angled beams directing corner loads to the center of each face, pointing at the stilts. These were not all concentrated around emergency stairwells, which might have been covert. No, no, this was the era when structural components moved back to the outside, allowing less overall steel use and taller buildings. Citicorp Center was, when built, the 7th tallest building in the world.

The result? Their covert after-hours fix happened in offices and common areas:

Beauty of an architecture component, don't you think?

Another aggravating factor in the vulnerability was introduced, as so many are, in construction when a change of design was proposed. To save money these angled beams were joined not with the originally-planned welds but with cheaper and quicker bolts. This lowered their strength, but calculations showed it'd be fine with the cardinal-directions winds. As Data Graham said, quartering winds weren't considered and the change was approved.

So the fix required welders coming in after-hours, taking off finishing from these structural components, welding on plates over the joints, then refinishing so it looked like all that occurred was a new paint job.


Oh, and a category 4 hurricane headed towards it 6 weeks into the repair. Thankfully it decided to just buzz the east coast and gently caress off to retire someplace vikings used to live.


Another fun thing about the "beams near the outside" design was the need for a tuned mass damper. Basically, this is a huge counterweight in the upper floors which moves to cancel out any vibrations that get started. This was original design, and quickly caught on because besides making it safer it made taller buildings less vomit-inducing.

Here's a fun video showing both the tuned mass damper and the emergency fix:

This is really fascinating. I wonder just how often society comes close to collapsing (literally and figuratively) and we never know it.

We have one too

Got it for my gf when she herniated a disc and was laying flat a lot.

I got one of these at a small white elephant gift party a few years back. Required you super glue some end piece to the back of the phone.

This was the gift a girl brought when the spending limit was $50.

I brought a nice bottle of booze. That’s what I get for trying to do something nice.

Also not in the spirit of gift giving: spending 4 dollars at Walgreens when 50 is the limit.

That limit was to encourage people to not bring dumpster gifts to the party but try to be useful and/or funny.

It was nice to see everyone steal my gift multiple times though :keke:
