We're restoring a historic civic structure with a timber-truss roof, and the client is pushing for improved fire performance. Some original members are too compromised for reuse. Has anyone substituted engineered timber or concealed steel cores in heritage projects without triggering rejection by conservation authorities?

Following seismic disruption in a dense urban grid, we’ve been tasked with rerouting surface runoff while utilities and roads are being restored. Pre-existing drainage is blocked or misaligned. What emergency stormwater diversion layouts or mobile detention options have worked for short-term resilience in post-quake environments?

We’ve seen minor but persistent warping in load-bearing wall frames after welding stiffeners to floor modules. It's throwing off downstream fit-up in our volumetric assembly line. What are the best methods for anticipating and mitigating welding-induced distortion in factory automation environments without slowing down throughput?

We're assessing premature surface pitting on 316-grade stainless steel anchor rods in a recently completed marina. Despite using spec-compliant material and sealing, tidal spray and warm, high-chloride air seem to be accelerating corrosion. What combination of coatings, detailing, or monitoring has worked in similar high-salinity tropical environments?

Using RTK-enabled drones, we're generating surface models of a hilly site with mixed vegetation cover. Results are reliable on bare earth but distort significantly under trees or bushy canopy. We’ve experimented with varying GSD and overlap but can't eliminate vertical errors >0.5m in forested zones. Anyone resolved this with hybrid workflows or sensor fusion?
