Aggregates with a lot of unstable silica like strained quartz can cause the creation of silica gel when exposed to cement. The aggregate supplier should be the one running tests to prove they don't have reactive silica.
Other tests include air entrainment and the slump test. The concrete mix requirements should be chosen by the engineer or architect.
Yeah. The worst part is that a lot of engineers and technicians don't fully understand galvanic corrosion when specifying how to attach two different metals together.
It even works with how the Enterprise was acting pre-Xindi attack. Humanity was actively interfering in the Vulcan-Andorian Cold War in ways that the Romulans couldn't predict and even acted far above their power in brokering various peace deals. It isn't that far out of line to attribute most forms of chaos happening in the area to be the Romulans trying to sow chaos as a way to control the region of space.
Eventually humanity becomes too disruptive that the Romulans have to actively attack humanity in order to regain control of the region, sparking the Earth-Romulan War. Hell, the human assistance in the revelation of Surak's teachings and the subsequent Vulcan revolution be both the trigger that gets the Romulans to go to war and the reason why they don't reveal themselves, since they were hoping to use a Vulcan-Andorian War to weaken Vulcan and open them up to annexation/incorporation with their cousin species's empire.
There are some interesting seeds in general, but I feel like the series would have done a lot better if they kept Romulans as the original villain. It would have even worked after Florida 9/11 had humanity try to find out who attacked them.
Her YouTube channel, which I would use as a measure of her activity, is only seeing videos posted every once in a while to a point where it could be treated as dead.
It isn't the hot mess. She has the look of a very driven woman who will do whatever, legal or illegal, to get what she wants. And you imagine she like at you, not at a pawn to manipulate but as an object of desire. She wants you with the desire she wants anything else.
And you can feel it, her desire to have you. And you can't stop it, she will have you.
There's been a lot to come out where Grey wasn't the best in a lot of business dealings/situations. For instance, Nebula would have been a lot worse if Grey was still in charge.
However, even with that, it is surprising how slow moving this self proclaimed efficiency except is.
