This is a location that I've been meaning to visit for some time, finally and made the time and went along. The Balcombe Viaduct, which carried 110 trains per day on the London - Brighton railway, is just off the Balcombe to Haywards Heath road.

Mesa Verde National Park, Colorado
AD 750-AD 1180
Four prehistoric reservoirs at Mesa Verde National Park were constructed and used between AD 750 and AD 1180. They are: Morefield Reservoir (in Morefield Canyon), Far View Reservoir (on Chapin Mesa), Sagebrush Reservoir (on an unnamed mesa), and Box Elder Reservoir (in Prater Canyon). These four ancient reservoirs represent extraordinary engineering achievements by the Ancestral Puebloan people. In an arid environment with very little surface water, these prehistoric people found ways to route and capture runoff to create sustainable domestic water supply reservoirs.
Morefield and Box Elder Reservoirs were valley-bottom structures that captured intermittent stream channel flows. They originated as excavated ponds on the valley floor and both became elevated after the siltation and resultant dredging of years of use. Far View (shown above) and Sagebrush Reservoirs are mesa-top features that captured harvested water. Deforestation and the packing of surrounding ground surface by foot traffic resulted in increased runoff water.
Facts
- Maize pollen is present in soil samples taken from these sites, proving nearby agriculture.
Reservoirs were operated successfully over hundreds of years; the evidence at Morefield, for example, indicates about 350 years of continuous maintenance and operation.
- Examination of reservoir sediment deposits and potsherds can provide a sequential record of human activities and timeline data.
- Dredging was necessary at all four reservoirs to maintain storage capacity.
- Stone walls were built at Far View and Sagebrush Reservoirs to retain dredged sediment.
- The Ancestral Puebloans harvested water supply from areas where modern engineers would say there was none.
- The Ancestral Puebloans had good rudimentary knowledge of hydrological phenomena, water transport and storage.
- Without good organizational capabilities, such large, continuously operated public works projects would not have been possible.
- All four Mesa Verde reservoirs are on an east-west straight line.

Trenholm State Community College is currently in the process of architecturally re-branding their Patterson Campus. Trenholm State Community College’s Automotive Collision Repair Program was moved from the Trenholm Campus to the Patterson Campus, and in doing so, will utilize an existing 18,727sf metal building/warehouse which was conducive for the collision repair area. Additional square footage was added to the building to encompass two classrooms, a resource room, offices, tool storage, and a paint shop. The paint shop consists of two new pre-fabricated paint booths, mixing station, and prep area A new façade was developed to enhance the overall appearance of the building. This building is the first of many to feature the new architectural style.
Trenholm State Community College’s Administration and Financial Aid Building project included a new metal retrofit roof and the renovation of an existing building that houses administration offices, financial aid and other student amenities as part of there “Student Success” center to allow for additional classrooms. The existing spaces were updated with new finishes and associated energy efficient mechanical, electrical, and plumbing work. A new entrance and sitework were designed to give a good first impression to students and administrators entering campus.
Trenholm State Community College purchased state of the art prefabricated welding booths for their welding program. However, the buildings electrical system could not accommodate the loads for the booths. Goodwyn, Mills and Cawood was hired to prepare the architecture and engineering drawings to allow the program to use their new welding stations.
Building B & Building D were renovations that include interior and exterior work, re-roofing, structural, mechanical, electrical, civil, site work, exterior lighting, new streets, repairs and alterations to existing streets and parking lots, landscaping, and sidewalks.
