Engineering = thing that moves, an engine.
Architecture = thing that do not move, a architect.

swimmingprodigy (01/02/2016) [-] Civil engineering deals with infrastructure; buildings, bridges, tunnels, etc.
These things generally are not supposed to be moving

swimmingprodigy (01/02/2016) [-] In the cranes and stuff ya i guess, civil engineers still mainly deal with structural steel tho which doesnt have engines

swimmingprodigy (01/02/2016) [-] actually both do. Architect does the pretty designs for how the building is going to look with the approximate materials to be used, the engineer has to calculate what exact size steel beam and cable to use so the bridge stays standing

That's not true. Thomas Tait was an architect who worked on the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The architecture practice Denton Corker Marshall designed the Bolte Bridge in Melbourne. Cox Rayner Architects worked on the Goodwill and Kurilpa Bridges in Brisbane. William Halford & Partners helped to design the Narrows Bridge in Perth. I'm sure there are others, but those are just the ones of which I know.
It likely comes down to whether or not whoever has commissioned the bridge wants an architect and can afford one on top of the engineers.
As for here in the States, swimmingprodigy said that there're always architects on large bridge projects. I don't think that's entirely true, but I have no hands-on experience with bridge projects. (I'm a mechanical engineer. The last time I had anything to do with designing bridges was during my time in school). One bridge that might be an exception that I know of is the Seven Mile Bridge in Florida. It was designed by Figg & Muller Engineers, though I would be surprised if such a firm didn't employ at least a few architects.
Ultimately, architects can be useful, but they're not necessary. If an engineer on the team happens to have a creative streak and some artistic talent (which a surprising number of engineers I know do, despite the stereotype), then the architect can quickly become unnecessary.

swimmingprodigy (01/02/2016) [-] Thats why Im studying engineering. But I'm bad at math. Which is why Im in my 4th year and still a lower junior in terms of credits. Gonna take me 6 years to finish my bachelor's smh

brobathehutt (01/02/2016) [-] Honestly engineers who go to good schools often take 5 years because good universities will load you up with hard classes because they know there isn't a time limit and its more important that you learn everything you need to know, not to mention all the labs you need to do.

swimmingprodigy (01/02/2016) [-] Ok that made me feel better because I was under the impression that everyone everywhere else gets their degree in 4 years except at my school where we all seem to be on at least a 4.5 year curriculum. Im already late in the game because I failed statics and mechanics of materials once each and had to retake. Didn't even fail with an F, but my school has a C minimum to pass (idk how common that is but I feel it certainly makes things harder. I got a ******* C- in statics)

swimmingprodigy (01/02/2016) [-] Thanks. I'm not too worried about it anyway, even if the engineering thing doesnt work out I'll always have money. I've gotten into daytrading penny stocks recently and the money racks up really really quick. I've made 850 bucks in the past 2 days and that was only risking very little amounts (2000-2500 dollars per trade). I can only do 3 trades per week though because of a stupid law. Once I get 25k in my account I'm past the limit for that stupid law that limits the amount of trades i can do and then I can afford to start risking 5k+ per trade and trading multiple times every day. I'll easily be making 500+ bucks per day.

Their kids will work in German factories.

-Fastens tin foil hat real quick.
For some reason this whole thing just seems like ******** to me. This seems like a false flag to make Muslims appear more persecuted than they actually are, much in the same way that feminists like Briana Wu faked death threats to make Gamergate look like a hate movement.

I am sure that there are many people who would curb stomp a Muslim if they could get away with it and I fully agree that there is a strong anti Muslim presence in Europe. But for whatever reason, this specific thing is setting off my ******** radar. I put on my metaphorical tin foil hat because I know that I don't have any substantial reasons to believe this is fake, but I still do.

I saw the middle image many years ago. Someone likely necroed it recently because of the refugee situation is my guess. If you do a reverse image search and narrow down the date range, you see a lot of results in 2012 with the Islam text and then more from like 2007 and 2005 on Russian sites without any added text. Nothing to do with the most recent swarms of refugees.
The stickers also say "keine chance" meaning "no chance" in German. I see no other text on there at all linking it to Islam in any way.
Now to keep you straight, I do hate Islam, but let's avoid jumping off the deep end without fact checking.
