No but just a little common sense would help, such as not designing something where #11 rebar had to occupy the same space as five ft anchor bolts, or maybe the seawall in the lower ninth ward having to be redesigned on the fly by a dumbass field engineer while racing against the clock due to unworkable plans. I am not picking on new engineers its just the way it is. Show a little humility and I promise the help is there.

We're currently setting and welding a PAR run of about a kilometer in length with 3 spool levels. Someone decided to cram the levels so tight that we have to build external scaffolding to weld each level. If they'd just bumped each level up a foot we could have run scaffold boards off the existing structure. Instead we got meathead scaffies spending hundreds of hours a week throwing boards and tubes around.
