Feat of engineering which connects Bakersfield to Mojave .
The loop takes its name from the circuitous route it takes, in which the track passes over itself, a design which lessens the angle of the grade. The loop gains a total of 77 feet in elevation as the track ascends at a sustained 2% grade.[1] A train more than 4,000 feet (1.2 km) long (about 85 boxcars) thus passes over itself going around the loop.

4-H Clover College is a four-day series of hands-on workshops for youth presented by Nebraska Extension in Lancaster County. Many of the projects made during the sessions are eligible to be exhibited at the Lancaster County Super Fair in August.
In “Amazing Engineering 2,” youth designed and built a basket from various office and craft supplies that would carry people and traveled along a stretched, angled string. Teams also designed a prosthetic leg from a toilet plunger, tape and various office supplies. Instructors: UNL College of Engineering
In Lancaster County, the 4-H youth development program is a partnership between Nebraska Extension and the Lancaster County government. Learn more about Lancaster County 4-H at lancaster.unl.edu/4h.

Adam Khamis (Imperial College London, e.quinox, civil engineer), Merritt Jenkins `10, and Kurt Kostyu `12 visited a UNHCR refugee camp which was built in June 2012 to house refugees from the Congo. There are now 14,000 people living there. We examined the civil works system of the camp. This is a water tank on top of hill.

Elliptical paraboloid concrete dome over Smithfield poultry market, London.
The Poultry Market is situated at the western end of Horace Jones's nineteenth century Smithfield Market building, and was built between 1961 and 1963 to replace a section of the original market that had been destroyed by a fire in 1958. The architect of the new building was T.P. Bennett and Son, and the engineer Ove Arup, with Povl Ahm the partner in charge.
The dome is an elliptical paraboloid, and the structural novelty of it was the use of prestressed edge beams to support it. This allowed the shell, seen from the inside, to seem to barely touch the walls at the point of contact in the corners, and made possible large segmental clerestory windows on all four sides to light the hall. It is the apparent lightness of the concrete shell (8 cm thick over most of the area of the dome) and the delicacy with which it rests on the building that still amazes people today.
Although the dome was probably the largest shell concrete structure in Europe at the time it was completed, the real technical achievement was its shallowness. The rise of the dome is roughy 9 meters, whereas normally a dome of this size would have had a rise of 15m; no dome so flat had previously been built anywhere in the world. The reason for keeping it low was to prevent if from being too prominent from the outside, otherwise it would have overpowered Jones's buildings
