Goodbye Gottschalks Hello Target
This is Coddingtown Mall. This video is shot a year after my Coddingtown 2011 Slideshow/Video. Coddingtown is demolishing the Gottschalks department store and then will build a new Target store in its place. The parts of the demolition that I was fascinated the most, was the punched hole on one side of the store sign and the hanging roof. At this point in time, the store is only halfway demolished. Inside Coddingtown are the usual holiday decorations but as I #39;m walking through the mall, on my right is a long retaining wall. The interior of the mall is in the shape of a cross. With the long retaining wall in place, the whole back corridor is completely blocked off. To see what the back corridor looked like, watch the Coddingtown 2011 video where you will also see that the entrance to Gottschalks is open. In this video, there is a sign on the retaining wall called Coddingtown Trivia. See if 1). You can spot the sign in the video. 2). Answer the Trivia Question. Leave your answer in the comments below. Thanks For Watching Coddingtown 2011 http://www.youtube.comFrom:jsmurdViews:0 2ratingsTime:05:43More inEntertainment

Welfare Home's Retaining Wall Damaged Due To Mud Slide After Heavy Rain

HULU LANGAT, Nov 27 (Bernama) -- Inmates at the Rumah Kebajikan Pertubuhan Kebajikan Darul Islah Malaysia (Perkid) panicked when a mud slide damaged the retaining wall of the welfare home during a heavy rain at 3.30pm Monday.

Perkid President Masridzi Sat said his wife informed him that during the incident at the women's hostel, four inmates were in the kitchen when they heard a loud noise.

"Upon going out to investigate the reason for the loud noise, they found the wall had tilted and cracked while the kitchen was flooded by mud," he told reporters when met here.

The cracks that appeared on the wall could be due to construction work carried out along the monsoon drain nearby, he said.

"The contractor carrying out construction work had placed the raw material near the welfare home's wall. During heavy rain, the wall could not withstand the heavy load, causing cracks on the wall," he said.

Meanwhile, Selangor Fire and Rescue Department assistant director Mohd Sani Harul said the mud slide and cracked wall did not affect the structure of the building.

MAPLETON Lane County engineers have had to shift gears in their effort to stabilize a remote Coast Range road after discovering unexpected conditions underground.

As a result, a bridge will have to be built over a shifting slope along Sweet Creek Road instead of holding the slope back with a retaining wall, as originally planned. Building the 1,130-foot bridge will add about $500,000 to the cost of the project, which will have to come out of the Lane County road fund.

The change will bring the total project cost to $6.3 million, project manager David Brown said. More than 90 percent of the projects cost is being paid through a federal grant.

The county is working to shore up a short stretch of Sweet Creek Road about 2 miles southwest of Mapleton, where an old retaining wall built in the 1970s is failing. Work began this summer on a 370-yard replacement wall, which has forced a number of nighttime closures on the road.

Sweet Creek Road provides access to 68 homes and about 30,000 acres of national forest land and more private timberland. About 5 million board feet of timber is harvested each year from forests served by the road, the county said.

Brown said initial engineering studies indicated that bedrock lay under a relatively shallow layer of soil, making a retaining wall the least expensive fix. But when excavation began, crews discovered that the bedrock layer was substantially deeper than the initial study estimated.

When you open up the ground, thats not an unusual condition, Brown said.

Nevertheless, county engineers were a little surprised, Brown said. They worked with a local firm, OBEC Consulting Engineers, to analyze the situation. It determined that crews would have to build the bridge over the soft ground rather than try to hold it back.

Brown said a bridge initially was considered the best solution, but that the county went with the retaining wall because it was less expensive. Work is now shifting to construction of the concrete piers that will support the bridge.

The bridge itself will be made from precast concrete that will be manufactured in sections and then trucked to the site and set in place. Once complete, any landslides or other earth movement simply would run under the bridge.

Severe flooding has caused a major landslip near Yate with thousands of tons of soilcracking a retaining wallnear homes this morning.

Sixfamilies in Church Lanein Old Sodbury have been evacuated to the nearby pub, the Dog Inn, amid fears of the wall collapsing and homes beingcovered in earth. A police cordon has been erected.

Resident Dave Moore, who lives in the row of cottages, said: "It was a big shock.I was woken by the police and a dog barking at about 9.30am. I was told I had to get out. The retaining wall has a big crack in it and fire crews are worried it may not hold. My house is a bit further up than the area affected soI was moved out a bit later.

"We have been told to get out for 24 hours and a lot of people are now staying in the pub."

Two fire crews from Yate and a structural engineer were sent to the scene. Damage has been caused to somegarages but no-one has been hurt.
