- cubefox 1y agoI'd rather live in an overengineered house than in an underengineered one.
- gwbas1c 1y agoI found out my house was "overengineered" when a professional architect pointed out a load carrying beam that was much larger than it needed to be. A few years later I found structural issues in a different part of the house. But, because I spent more money on overengineering one part of the house, there's less money to fix real problems.
