Plus haut barrage-poids du monde niché au fond du Val des Dix, la Grande Dixence est le barrage de tous les records ! La hauteur de son mur, 285 mètres, reste inégalée. Son poids, environ 15 millions de tonnes, le rend plus lourd que la grande pyramide de Khéops.
The Grande Dixence Dam is Situated at the head of the Val des Dix, Grande Dixence is the highest gravity dam in the world, and something of a record-breaker! The height of its wall, 285 metres, remains unmatched. Its weight, approximately 15 million tonnes, makes it heavier than the Great Pyramid of Cheops.
Each year it stores over 400 million cubic metres of water, a capacity achieved by the use of no less than 6 million cubic metres of concrete in its construction. With exactly the same quantity of concrete, it would be possible to build a wall 1.5 metres high and 10 centimetres wide, running all the way round the equator!
The dam is 200 metres wide at its base.
With the primary purpose of hydroelectric power generation, the dam fuels four power stations, totaling the installed capacity to 2,069 MW, generating approximately 2,000 GWh annually, enough to power 400,000 Swiss households.
Construction 1950-1961
Commissioned from 1961
Height 285 m
Crest 15 m wide, 700 m from bank to bank
Capacity 400 million cubic metres
Area 4,04 km2
Length 5,3 km
Catchment area 46,3 km2
Sitting atop the diagram. There are only 51 squares to go! It's very symmetrical at this point...

Verizon wants everyone still on the copper cables to be connected using their fiber optic cables. Me being still on copper they came and switched my connection to fiber optic. Here the tech is connecting the new line to my house.
Like lots of things in telecomms, the complex is made simple through defined and shared standards, combined with steady and patient work.
A 40-pair underground cable can look frighteningly difficult to terminate. However, each group of ten pairs is identified by a thin pvc band within the main sheath.
Then, within that ten pairs, there are two sets of "base colours". Then, within those base colours, there are key (band) colours of blue, orange, green, brown and slate (grey). With me so far?
Work slowly and calmly, separate each group with a cable tie (cheap, nasty, and horrible blue ones in this case). Et voilà! All ready to terminate.
I watched a 40-year telecomms veteran work through a 200-pair cable like this one morning at Loughborough on the Great Central Railway, and learnt much from his almost monastic calmness and knowledge of "the craft".
Oh, and I did this particular cable as practice one Saturday morning in order to prepare for when I might need to do this as part of "the day job" in the field. As well as actually managing to complete something on a weekend of "bitty" and potentially uncompleted jobs. And avoid starting said jobs...

You can see the tire tracks through the median and how the cable barrier flexed and absorbed the impact from the semitruck, stopping it from hitting oncoming traffic.

Took me awhile because of measuring lengths needed (measure a billion times and cut once). Now 3 more cables to go!
The cables are fed into the Signum cable trunking system attached to the underside of the desk. As you can see, still have to tidy it up a bit.
The historic center of San Francisco is the northeast quadrant of the city bordered by Market Street to the south. It is here that the Financial District is centered, with Union Square, the principal shopping and hotel district, nearby. Cable cars carry riders up steep inclines to the summit of Nob Hill, once the home of the city's business tycoons, and down to Fisherman's Wharf, a tourist area featuring Dungeness crab from a still-active fishing industry. Also in this quadrant are Russian Hill, a residential neighborhood with the famously crooked Lombard Street, North Beach, the city's Little Italy, and Telegraph Hill, which features Coit Tower. Nearby is San Francisco's Chinatown, established in the 1840s. San Francisco. California.

The San Francisco cable car system is the world's last manually operated cable car system. An icon of San Francisco, California, the cable car system forms part of the intermodal urban transport network operated by the San Francisco Municipal Railway, or "Muni" as it is better known. Of the twenty-three lines established between 1873 and 1890,[5] three remain (one of which combines parts of two earlier lines): two routes from downtown near Union Square to Fisherman's Wharf, and a third route along California Street. While the cable cars are used to a certain extent by commuters, their small service area and premium fares for single rides make them more of a tourist attraction. They are among the most significant tourist sites in the city, along with Alcatraz Island and Fisherman's Wharf. The cable cars are the only mobile National Monument in the world, and are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
