Joints done like this- with appropriate coatings and maintenance- can last for a very long time with few issues.
If I ever built another steel boat I would have an alloy deck. You can use the transition strips or bolt it on.
I would bolt it on with a 1/8" poly gasket Sikaflexed on both sides of the gasket. I would also hang all the bulkheads from the alloy deck and use bolts through SS tabs welded to the steel hull to locate them at the bottom and sides.
If I was able to hang up the deck in a shed I would fit the bulkheads and hoist the deck out and hang it so I could complete the fit out outside the hull then drop the completed fit-out/deck back into the hull and bolt it down.
Navy ships I was on in the late 60s had aluminum superstructure on steel hulls. There was a material like thick tape that separated the two. The metals overlapped at the deck level and were riveted together. There was minor corrosion, but the aluminum alloys probably weren't as good as today. They quit doing aluminum on warships when they discovered how well it burned.
NobelClad’s DetaCouple™ Structural Transitions, for instance, are used for welding aluminum superstructures and bulkheads to steel hulls, framing and decks.
So long as they are electrically isolated there isn't much of an issue. And this is a pretty easy thing to check. Just take a multi-meter and check for continuity between the hull and the bridge in a couple of spots.
Years ago I helped a guy who was making fittings for Aircraft Carrier decks. The fittings were a composite of I think aluminum, titanium and steel. He made them by explosive forming. He layered the metals, the Ti was just a thin sheet between them, set off an explosive charge and the force caused the metals to molecularly bond with each other like welding. It was pretty interesting.
maybe the Ti was the barrier that kept things from corroding... not sure. I think it was done so they could weld the fittings to the deck.
This is pretty far outside my wheel house, but based on the tests I have read, explosion forming Al-Ti will galvanically corrode at the boundary. My guess is the US Navy simply doesn't care about the corrosion and were trying to accomplish something else, but I have no idea what that may have been. Perhaps to join aluminum/steel with titanium acting as a filler, or provide a thermal expansion joint... I really don't know.
I think the main thing was to weld the fitting to the deck which didnt match it's metal. I suppose the deck was steel? but they wanted the aluminum fitting or vice versa.
I couldn't even begin to guess... I know the deck itself is made from an armored steel, and that they can't use aluminum because in the event of a jet fuel fire (~1000C) the aluminum could melt (at ~600C). But what titanium would be doing there I really don't know.
I am sure the engineers were trying to do something with it, and likely succeeded, but I just can't imagine what it would be.
I did see a steel hull with an alloy cabin bolted to a stainless steel flange that was welded to the deck. Plenty of sealant isolated the materials and it didn't seem to have had corrosion issues. The owners said it worked out far cheaper than the explosion bonded strip.
As we're late to the game for Breaking Bad, we're enjoying exploring this story via Netflix and it's quite the ride. While we're not exactly new to such serialized storytelling, the fact that it was still pretty much created during the more episodic broadcast era makes it clear why it stood out so much when it came out. This doesn't even touch on how great the story is.
I didn't expect to get into a series focused on a high school chemistry dealer who becomes a drug "cook" but here we are. And the way they've crafted the series with all of its nuances and complexities does make for pretty powerful storytelling indeed.
The serialized story is not a new concept and we've seen it come and go over the years. But I guess the binge-watching behavior supported by services like Netflix have helped make shows like this even more powerful since it's pretty intense to watch the show in quicker succession instead of a weekly basis.
Synopsis: Breaking Bad is a drama TV series created and produced by Vince Gilligan for AMC. The show has won many awards over the years and is known as one of the greatest television shows of all time.
This second season begins with the tense stand-off with Tuco (Raymond Cruz) and Walt / Heisenberg (Bryan Cranston) together with Jessie (Aaron Paul). In the end Tuco kidnaps them and stows them away in a shack in the desert together with his aging uncle (Mark Margolis), who is a former drug lord in his own right. At the same time, Walt's brother-in-law Hank (Dean Norries) has the DEA all over Tuco's organization as they try to crack down on their operation.
Meanwhile Walt's wife Skyler (Anna Gunn) is pregnant and wondering where Walt has disappeared to. She remains in the dark about Walt's drug operation and how he's paying for his cancer treatments. And all that is hardly a priority with Walt missing. And while he eventually escapes his captors to make his way back, there's still the other challenge of figuring out how to explain his disappearance.
What I Liked: I think I mentioned before how much I've come to enjoy how the story seems to play out like a game of Fiasco with twist after disastrous twist. You're already stuck in a weird place with being undecided about whether or not you really want to root for these two as they are in fact involved in illegal drugs. But the whole story remains so compelling that you end up cheering at both their successes and their failures.
This season also had Jesse trying to learn to step up and be more than Walt's flunkie and Walt in turn tapping into his slow burning rage deep inside to come to some pretty cold decisions. At first he was just a desperate man trying to do right by his family. But as we see in this season, hes also descending into a dark place that he feels he needs to be in order to be the meth cook Heisenberg.
What Could Have Been Better: There are some asides and parallel story tracks that don't resonate quite as well for me. Skyler isn't the best of characters in this season although Anna Gunn does her best with what she has to work with. The same goes for Walt Jr., his son, who is a bit of a non-etity in most of the show.
And so there are a lot of uncomfortable situations where the show painfully becomes about Sykle or her DEA brother Hank in sub-plots that can get a little long-winded or rather boring at times. You end up wanting to go back to the action with Walt and such, but I understand the direction of things.
TL;DR: Breaking Bad is quite the phenomenal story and this second season continues to take things forward as Walt explores this darker path for himself. It's a story with inherent tragedy and yet it all works out still, and that's the magic of it. So this second season gets 5 moments when Saul comes to save the day out of possible 5.
Romance blooms between two soldiers stationed in an Israeli outpost on the Lebanese border.
It's a strong and powerful story, but it is not a great film. In some ways limited by its lenght (60 minutes) we see much, but there could be more development in terms of story and characters. The way it was shot was rather amateurish, and I think that hindered the development in many ways.
don't have the strength of "Bubble". I feel something gratuitous in the history.
Our meetings are held once a year. The details of the process can be found in the section below.
Possible Issues for a New LWVUS Study - This document details how a new study is selected and some issues that are being proposed throughout the country by other Leagues.
It is so important for YOU to participate!
According to the LWVUS publication, League Basics, "Program is the League's reason for being, the basis for both advocacy and education efforts." Program - governmental issues chosen for study and action - is an essential element of League and, because it is so important, has traditionally originated with the membership through the program planning process.
At a Program Planning meeting members decide to retain, update, or delete all current positions and add any new items to study.
The Board then approves Proposed Program based on member input from the Program Planning meeting.
Members vote on the Proposed Program at the Annual Meeting or Convention.
If a new study is approved, a committee is established and a two-year study begins to research the issue and educate members.
Once the study is complete, members discuss the issue at Unit Meetings and come to consensus about the issue.
A position is written reflecting the views of the membership. The position is then approved by the Board and then voted on by members at the Annual Meeting or Convention.
Once the position is approved, the League can then advocate based on this new position.
This lengthy process of researching and studying issues before reaching a consensus on national, state or local issues is well known and respected. This thorough way of forging positions has made the League a credible and unique force. Our advocacy is based on sound, informed decision making at the grassroots level. People trust the League because they know that we study issues carefully before taking action.
Key to the Success of This Process is participation by All Members. Your input is essential. Don't let a few members make these critical League decisions. Check the Calendar for the Program Planning meeting date.
To better familiarize yourself with League Program, read the publication League Basics (select "For Members", select "Training and Resources", select "League Basics").

The wide experience and the competent staff make Atex Safety Service the ideal (right) partner for your needs.
Certification is becoming increasingly important for IECEx on equipment for hazardous areas: it represents a major business opportunity, as the most important countries in the world comply with the IECEx Scheme (www.iecex.com): USA, Australia, UK, Germany, France, Italy, China, India, Korea, Brazil, etc. The IECEx certification avoids the need to duplicate certificates and tests required by the acceding countries, and commercialization of equipment becomes easier.
The IECEx system requires certification of products (EXTR, CoC), of companies (QAR), of repairers and personnel competencies (COPC), they are all basic requirements for the design, construction and maintenance of equipments. IEC standards (gas and dust) include equipment (60079-x) and Ex plants; these standards mean important updating to the equipment (EPL marking) and to electrical installations (60079-14).
Knowledge and application of these standards are mandatory for all users in order to properly select right equipment and installation.
Atex Safety Service, the first company to obtain the IECEx Certification (CP INE11.0002) in Italy, thanks to its experience in the field and the presence of competent staff, is the ideal partner for the IECEx certification.
During the boss fight against her, switching weapons and stances is very effective. I found a low-stance Kusarigama to be most effective in her first phase, as it's very fast and good at punishing her moves and stunlocking her. In her second phase, the spear is better because it can be used to inflict more damage when punishing her dive-kicks. It also lowers her Ki very quickly.
Sword users will have an easy time here. The simple trick is to use Haze, the mid-stance parry, and just bait out her attacks. She has little in the way of mix-ups and her main slash attacks have a long start-up with a charge animation, making these easy parries. If you have Haze II, that means you get a free counter into a critical, or grapple if she runs out of stamina in the process. Just block and space yourself accordingly and this'll be an easy fight.
As a ninja build, I found kunai to be a major weakness of hers. If you've got kunai to burn, don't spam them all at once, or she'll get hit by the first and then dodge the others. Basically, she will dodge right after you hit her with one, so after throwing one, wait until she finishes her dodge, then throw your next kunai. Once you get the rhythm down, rinse and repeat until you're out of kunai or she's defeated. Thanks to having 21 kunai, and a bunch of ninjitsu buffs, I never had to engage her in melee.
The actual fight seems to differ by a large margin from what is seen in the video above.
Ya a lot of Nioh wiki things are still missing.
she was the easiest boss. easier then a normal demon. Just hit her like vs a revenant till she has no KI and then grapple. repeat. she was defeat in like 30sec.
This hoe is a joke. Beat her weebo *** in a few nanoseconds.
You should be the one baiting her, she is good at countering and moving. You will take more damage if you pursue her recklessly. Her guardian spirit buff is a great opening for melee attacks. It's also good to spam some Kunai or shuriken if she is low stamina and out of your melee reach. You can knock her down or tire her. Side dodges are great against her. Just let her do her stuff, come in on openings, then when her stamina is low, be more aggressive and spam throwable if needed to drain her ki.
The decision to move forward with a custom swimming pool can be an exciting one! In a few short months, you and your family will have an inviting, centralized outdoor space to enjoy for years to come.
But- before you start picking out your new backyard barbecue, and before you start planning the out your sister’s daughter’s 6th grade graduation party, there are a few other things you’ll need to cross off your list.
First and foremost, you’ll need to decide which company to hire to help you with the construction, design and installation. Yes, there are many companies that claim they can help turn your vision of a custom swimming pool into a reality, but you should know that not all pool design companies are alike.
If a company claims to be a custom pool builder, they should have the experience, the references and a portfolio to back the claim up. Yes, there are many companies that have past experiencing in building above ground pools, kidney shaped pools and fiberglass pools, but that’s not to say they know the ins and outs of the design process.
Before you sign any paperwork, be sure to ask them for a random sampling of references. For example, ask them for references who all have a first name that begins with the letter P. This will ensure that the company isn’t picking their top 3 favorite customers who are guaranteed to give them a good review.
You should also ask them if they have a portfolio of past work. If they don’t have a portfolio, that’s a red flag, especially if the company is “supposed to” specialize in custom pool design!
Lastly, ask them if they have experience in working with the types of materials you’re interested in using. If they don’t, but the person you’re speaking with tried to convince you it won’t be a problem, you’ll be better served by moving on until you find a company that meets all of these criteria.
Building a custom-designed swimming pool takes a whole lot more than a shovel, a wheel barrow and cement.
Be sure to ask the contractor you’re speaking with whether they’re up to date on the latest custom swimming pool technologies. Ask them about the tools they’ll be using—and ask them what types of materials they intend to use during construction.
Ask them about possible delays, and the types of hiccups they’ve experienced in the past and the steps they took to get those issues resolved. Make sure they are up front and honest with you about any possible delays you may experience with the construction of your pool.
The more informed you can be about the process and timeline, the better.
If you’re satisfied the designer has the experience, the background and the know how to get your project done right, make sure you get everything in writing.
