Extracts from Alan Weisman, The World Without Us, 2007. The book considers the material aspects of human civilization and how long they would last, unattended. If humans were to vanish from Earth, if all maintainance and repairing work ceased, what would happen to what we leave behind?

(The book went on to inspire two speculative documentaries, Life After People by History Channel and Aftermath: Population Zero by National Geographic, emphasizing different aspects of it. They were neat.)

Chapter 2: Unbuilding Our Home

No matter how hermetically you’ve sealed your temperature-tuned interior from the weather, invisible spores penetrate anyway, exploding in sudden outbursts of mold—awful when you see it, worse when you don’t, because it’s hidden behind a painted wall, munching paper sandwiches of gypsum board, rotting studs and floor joists. Or you’ve been colonized by termites, carpenter ants, roaches, hornets, even small mammals.

Most of all, though, you are beset by what in other contexts is the veritable stuff of life: water... moisture enters around the nails. Soon they’re rusting, and their grip begins to loosen... As gravity increases tension on the trusses, the ¼-inch pins securing their now-rusting connector plates pull free from the wet wood, which now sports a fuzzy coating of greenish mold... When the heat went off, pipes burst if you lived where it freezes, and rain is blowing in where windows have cracked from bird collisions and the stress of sagging walls. Even where the glass is still intact, rain and snow mysteriously, inexorably work their way under sills. As the wood continues to rot, trusses start to collapse against each other. Eventually the walls lean to one side, and finally the roof falls in...

While all that disaster was unfolding, squirrels, raccoons, and lizards have been inside, chewing nest holes in the drywall, even as woodpeckers rammed their way through from the other direction... Fallen vinyl siding, whose color began to fade early, is now brittle and cracking as its plasticizers degenerate. The aluminum is in better shape, but salts in water pooling on its surface slowly eat little pits that leave a grainy white coating... Unprotected thin sheet steel disintegrates in a few years. Long before that, the water-soluble gypsum in the sheetrock has washed back into the earth. That leaves the chimney, where all the trouble began. After a century, it’s still standing, but its bricks have begun to drop and break as, little by little, its lime mortar, exposed to temperature swings, crumbles and powders.

If you owned a swimming pool, it’s now a planter box... If the house’s foundation involved a basement, it too is filling with soil and plant life. Brambles and wild grapevines are snaking around steel gas pipes, which will rust away before another century goes by. White plastic PVC plumbing has yellowed and thinned on the side exposed to the light, where its chloride is weathering to hydrochloric acid, dissolving itself and its polyvinyl partners. Only the bathroom tile, the chemical properties of its fired ceramic not unlike those of fossils, is relatively unchanged, although it now lies in a pile mixed with leaf litter.

After 500 years, what is left depends on where in the world you lived. If the climate was temperate, a forest stands in place of a suburb; minus a few hills, it’s begun to resemble what it was before developers, or the farmers they expropriated, first saw it. Amid the trees, half-concealed by a spreading understory, lie aluminum dishwasher parts and stainless steel cookware, their plastic handles splitting but still solid... The chromium alloys that give stainless steel its resilience... will probably continue to do so for millennia, especially if the pots, pans, and carbon-tempered cutlery are buried out of the reach of atmospheric oxygen. One hundred thousand years hence, the intellectual development of whatever creature digs them up might be kicked abruptly to a higher evolutionary plane by the discovery of ready-made tools...

If you were a desert dweller, the plastic components of modern life flake and peel away faster, as polymer chains crack under an ultraviolet barrage of daily sunshine. With less moisture, wood lasts longer there, though any metal in contact with salty desert soils will corrode more quickly. Still, from Roman ruins we can guess that thick cast iron will be around well into the future’s archaeological record, so the odd prospect of fire hydrants sprouting amidst cacti may someday be among the few clues that humanity was here...

In a warmer world... drier, hotter desert climates will be complemented by wetter, stormier mountain weather systems that will send floods roaring downstream, overwhelming dams, spreading over their former alluvial plains, and entombing whatever was built there in annual layers of silt. Within them, fire hydrants, truck tires, shattered plate glass, condominia, and office buildings may remain indefinitely, but as far from sight as the Carboniferous Formation once was.

No memorial will mark their burial, though the roots of cottonwoods, willows, and palms may occasionally make note of their presence. Only eons later, when old mountains have worn away and new ones risen, will young streams cutting fresh canyons through sediments reveal what once, briefly, went on here.

Chapter 3: The City Without Us

Under New York, groundwater is always rising… Whenever it rains hard, sewers clog with storm debris… With subway pumps stilled… water would start sluicing away soil under the pavement. Before long, streets start to crater. With no one unclogging sewers, some new watercourses form on the surface… Within 20 years, the water-soaked steel columns that support the street above the East Side’s 4, 5, and 6 trains corrode and buckle. As Lexington Avenue caves in, it becomes a river.

Whenever it is, the repeated freezing and thawing make asphalt and cement split. When snow thaws, water seeps into these fresh cracks. When it freezes, the water expands, and cracks widen… As pavement separates, weeds like mustard, shamrock, and goosegrass blow in from Central Park and work their way down the new cracks, which widen further… The weeds are followed by the city’s most prolific exotic species, the Chinese ailanthus tree… As soil long trapped beneath pavement gets exposed to sun and rain, other species jump in, and soon leaf litter adds to the rising piles of debris clogging the sewer grates.

The early pioneer plants won’t even have to wait for the pavement to fall apart. Starting from the mulch collecting in gutters, a layer of soil will start forming atop New York’s sterile hard shell, and seedlings will sprout…

In the first few years with no heat, pipes burst all over town, the freeze-thaw cycle moves indoors, and things start to seriously deteriorate. Buildings groan as their innards expand and contract; joints between walls and rooflines separate. Where they do, rain leaks in, bolts rust, and facing pops off, exposing insulation. If the city hasn’t burned yet, it will now… with no firemen to answer the call, a dry lightning strike that ignites a decade of dead branches and leaves piling up in Central Park will spread flames through the streets. Within two decades, lightning rods have begun to rust and snap, and roof fires leap among buildings, entering paneled offices filled with paper fuel. Gas lines ignite with a rush of flames that blows out windows. Rain and snow blow in, and soon even poured concrete floors are freezing, thawing, and starting to buckle. Burnt insulation and charred wood add nutrients to Manhattan’s growing soil cap. Native Virginia creeper and poison ivy claw at walls covered with lichens, which thrive in the absence of air pollution. Red-tailed hawks and peregrine falcons nest in increasingly skeletal high-rise structures.

Within two centuries… colonizing trees will have substantially replaced pioneer weeds. Gutters buried under tons of leaf litter provide new, fertile ground for native oaks and maples from city parks. Arriving black locust and autumn olive shrubs fix nitrogen, allowing sunflowers, bluestem, and white snakeroot to move in along with apple trees, their seeds expelled by proliferating birds… as buildings tumble and smash into each other, and lime from crushed concrete raises soil pH, inviting in trees, such as buckthorn and birch, that need less-acidic environments…

In a future that portends stronger and more-frequent hurricanes striking North America’s Atlantic coast, ferocious winds will pummel tall, unsteady structures. Some will topple, knocking down others. Like a gap in the forest when a giant tree falls, new growth will rush in. Gradually, the asphalt jungle will give way to a real one.

Chapter 7: What Falls Apart

(context: this chapter describes Varosha, a city in Cyprus evacuated in 1974 after the Turkish invasion, and left abandoned until 2019)

[Two years after abandonment] Asphalt and pavement had cracked… Australian wattles, a fast-growing acacia species used by hotels for landscaping, were popping out midstreet, some nearly three feet high. Creepers from ornamental succulents snaked out of hotel gardens, crossing roads and climbing tree trunks… Concussions from Turkish air force bombs, Cavinder saw, had exploded plate-glass store windows. Boutique mannequins were half-clothed, their imported fabrics flapping in tattered strips…

Pigeon droppings coated everything. Carob rats nested in hotel rooms, living off Yaffa oranges and lemons from former citrus groves… The bell towers of Greek churches were spattered with the blood and feces of hanging bats.

Sheets of sand blew across avenues and covered floors… Now, no bands, just the incessant kneading of the seathat no longer soothed. The wind sighing through open windows became a whine. The cooing of pigeons grew deafening.

Varosha, merely 60 miles from Syria and Lebanon, is too balmy for a freeze-thaw cycle, but its pavement was tossed asunder anyway. The wrecking crews weren’t just trees, Münir marveled, but also flowers. Tiny seeds of wild Cyprus cyclamen had wedged into cracks, germinated, and heaved aside entire slabs of cement…

Two more decades passed… Its encircling fence and barbed wire are now uniformly rusted, but there is nothing left to protect but ghosts. An occasional Coca Cola sign and broadsides posting nightclubs’ cover charges hang on doorways… Fallen limestone facing lies in pieces. Hunks of wall have dropped from buildings to reveal empty rooms… brick-shaped gaps show where mortar has already dissolved. Other than the back-and-forth of pigeons, all that moves is the creaky rotor of one last functioning windmill.

In the meantime, nature continues its reclamation project. Feral geraniums and philodendrons emerge from missing roofs and pour down exterior walls. Flame trees, chinaberries, and thickets of hibiscus, oleander, and passion lilac sprout from nooks where indoors and outdoors now blend. Houses disappear under magenta mounds of bougainvillaea. Lizards and whip snakes skitter through stands of wild asparagus, prickly pear, and six-foot grasses. A spreading ground cover of lemon grass sweetens the air. At night, the darkened beachfront, free of moonlight bathers, crawls with nesting loggerhead and green sea turtles.

Chapter 10: The Petro Patch

If, in the immediate aftermath of Homo sapiens petrolerus, the tanks and towers of the Texas petrochemical patch all detonated together in one spectacular roar, after the oily smoke cleared, there would remain melted roads, twisted pipe, crumpled sheathing, and crumbled concrete. White-hot incandescence would have jump-started the corrosion of scrap metals in the salt air, and the polymer chains in hydrocarbon residues would likewise have cracked into smaller, more digestible lengths, hastening biodegradation. Despite the expelled toxins, the soils would also be enriched with burnt carbon, and after a year of rains switchgrass would be growing. A few hardy wildflowers would appear. Gradually, life would resume.

Or, if the faith of Valero Energy’s Fred Newhouse in system safeguards proves warranted—or if the departing oilmen’s last loyal act is to depressurize towers and bank the fires—the disappearance of Texas’s world champion petroleum infrastructure will proceed more slowly. During the first few years, the paint that slows corrosion will go. Over the next two decades, all the storage tanks will exceed their life spans. Soil moisture, rain, salt, and Texas wind will loosen their grip until they leak. Any heavy crude will have hardened by then; weather will crack it, and bugs will eventually eat it.

What liquid fuels that haven’t already evaporated will soak into the ground. When they hit the water table, they’ll float on top because oil is lighter than water. Microbes will find them, realize that they were once only plant life, too, and gradually adapt to eat them. Armadillos will return to burrow in the cleansed soil, among the rotting remains of buried pipe.

Unattended oil drums, pumps, pipes, towers, valves, and bolts will deteriorate at the weakest points, their joints… Until they go, collapsing the metal walls, pigeons that already love to nest atop refinery towers will speed the corruption of carbon steel with their guano, and rattlesnakes will nest in the vacant structures below. As beavers dam the streams that trickle into Galveston Bay, some areas will flood. Houston is generally too warm for a freeze-thaw cycle, but its deltaic clay soils undergo formidable swell-shrink bouts as rains come and go. With no more foundation repairmen to shore up the cracks, in less than a century downtown buildings will start leaning.

… When oil, gas, or groundwater is pumped from beneath the surface, land settles into the space it occupied… Lower the land, raise the seas, add hurricanes far stronger than midsize, Category 3 Alicia, and even before its dams go, the Brazos gets to do again what it did for 80,000 years: like its sister to the east, the Mississippi, it will flood its entire delta… flare towers, catalytic crackers, and fractionating columns, like downtown Houston buildings, will poke out of brackish floodwaters, their foundations rotting while they wait for the waters to recede.

… Below the surface, the oxidizing metal parts of chemical alley will provide a place for Galveston oysters to attach. Silt and oyster shells will slowly bury them, and will then be buried themselves. Within a few million years, enough layers will amass to compress shells into limestone, which will bear an odd, intermittent rusty streak flecked with sparkling traces of nickel, molybdenum, niobium, and chromium. Millions of years after that, someone or something might have the knowledge and tools to recognize the signal of stainless steel. Nothing, however, will remain to suggest that its original form once stood tall over a place called Texas, and breathed fire into the sky.

I cannot really describe the feeling I get from reading these portions in particular, only that it’s the strongest I ever got from any book. It’s certainly not one of joy: I don’t want humans to disappear -- in fact, there are a lot of humans among my family and friends -- and I don’t want human civilization to vanish, after the unspeakable effort it took to put together, with all the promise that, despite everything, it shows. It’s not one of sadness or fear, either. I suppose it’s just one of awe, of terrible grandeur, similar in kind to what I feel when considering the alien horror and beauty of evolved life, its sheer multi-layered complexity, or the unthinkable vastness of geological time.

The first thing I've ever built using vacuum tubes? Worked first try.

Here it is! I posted earlier about the build, and the 45 volt battery, so I'll just add some setup notes. I'm using a "short" wire antenna, at roughly 18 feet long, strung out from here across the living room. The earth ground is to the old plumbing system; the water comes to the taps via modern PVC pipes, but since this apartment building was constructed some time in the 1960s, there's still a stump of copper pipe under the kitchen sink. The headphones were a long ago thrift store find, magnetic high-impedance 'phones with pin connectors; I have no proof of their age, but I've got a big radio equipment catalog from 1956 that shows very similar ones, down to the cloth-covered headband and wires.

Tuning isn't quite as straightforward as it is on a modern radio. The regenerative circuit used here, which dates back to 1912 (!), requires you to tune the capacitor (left) to the station frequency, and then you need to use the regeneration feedback (right) to dial in just the right amount to pull the audio out. That said, it's much better and cleaner reception than the crystal radios I've built; on those, one strong local station would tend to swamp everything else, and the regeneration here is meant to filter that sort of thing out. I had it running for a couple of minutes, just poking around, and positively identified three separate local AM stations. Come nightfall, we DX hunt!

What exactly do you mean by pipe fittings?

When discussing plumbing and fluid management systems, pipe fittings play a crucial role alongside drainage pipes and fittings in creating efficient and reliable connections. These essential components are the unsung heroes of any piping system, serving as the joints, transitions, and control points that make fluid transportation possible.

Pipe fittings are specialised components designed to connect straight pipe sections, change flow directions, modify pipe sizes, or terminate lines. Think of them as the connectors in a complex puzzle, each serving a specific purpose in the overall system. They come in various materials, sizes, and configurations to suit different applications and industries.

Common types of pipe fittings include:

Connectors

Couplings: Join two pipes of the same diameter

Reducers: Connect pipes of different diameters

Unions: Allow easy disconnection for maintenance

Directional Fittings

Elbows: Create 45° or 90° turns

Tees: Enable three-way connections

Crosses: Allow four-way connections

Flow Control Fittings

A foot valve, for example, is a specialised fitting installed at the bottom of suction pipes to prevent backflow and maintain pump prime. These control fittings are crucial for system efficiency and protection.

Modern plumbing systems often utilise HDPE pipes (High-Density Polyethylene) due to their durability and flexibility. These pipes require specific fittings designed to maintain the system's integrity while accommodating the material's unique properties.

Installation Methods:

Different fitting types require various installation methods:

Threading: Metal pipes are commonly joined using threaded fittings

Welding: Used for steel and some plastic pipes

Solvent Cement: A chemical bonding method for PVC and other plastic pipes, creating a permanent, leak-proof seal

The selection of appropriate pipe fittings depends on several factors:

Operating pressure and temperature

Chemical compatibility with transported fluid

Installation environment

Cost considerations

Maintenance requirements

Understanding pipe fittings is crucial for contractors, engineers, and DIY enthusiasts alike. Proper selection and installation ensure system efficiency, prevent leaks, and extend the lifespan of the entire piping network. Whether in residential plumbing, industrial processes, or municipal water systems, these components form the backbone of fluid transportation infrastructure.

Ensuring Seamless Flow: PVC Sanitary Pipes and Fittings

When it pertains to modern plumbing systems, a few things, like quality, seamless flow, and ease of installation of the pipes and fittings used in their construction, are the buzzwords, where PVC sanitary pipe and fittings find a crucial role to play. Furthermore, with advancements in piping technology, including trusted brands like Wavin, PVC has become the go-to material for both residential and commercial plumbing systems. This blog explores the benefits of using PVC sanitary pipes and fittings and highlights their role in maintaining a flawless water flow.

Why PVC Sanitary Pipes are Essential in Plumbing Systems

PVC sanitary pipes have revolutionized the plumbing industry with their exceptional performance. One of the key benefits is their corrosion resistance. Unlike metal pipes, PVC does not rust or corrode when exposed to water and other substances, making it highly suitable for long-term use in plumbing systems. This durability ensures that plumbing networks using PVC sanitary pipes maintain their integrity for decades, minimizing the need for frequent repairs or replacements.

Moreover, PVC is lightweight, which reduces the strain on infrastructure during installation and transportation. PVC distributors provide a variety of pipe sizes, making them adaptable for both large-scale projects and small household plumbing systems. This versatility also ensures that PVC sanitary pipes are easily customizable to suit specific requirements.

PVC Sanitary Pipe Fittings: Ensuring Leak-Free Connections

The proper installation of a plumbing system relies heavily on the quality of the fittings. PVC sanitary pipe fittings are designed to create airtight and leak-proof connections between pipes, ensuring that water and waste flow seamlessly. These fittings, such as elbows, tees, and reducers, are essential for redirecting water to various parts of a building and managing complex pipe networks.

A critical component of these systems is the PVC pipe connector, which joins sections of pipes securely. High-quality connectors and fittings prevent issues like leaks, blockages, and backflows. One brand that stands out in this area is Wavin, which offers reliable and durable sanitary fittings made from top-grade PVC. Wavin fittings are renowned for their precision, ensuring that plumbers can achieve perfect connections that hold up against pressure and time.

Sustainability and Cost-Effectiveness of PVC Plumbing Solutions

Sustainability is becoming a significant consideration in modern construction. PVC pipes and fittings are 100% recyclable, contributing to a circular economy and reducing waste. Their longevity also means fewer replacements, reducing material consumption over time. In terms of cost, PVC sanitary pipes and fittings are highly affordable compared to other piping materials, without compromising quality or performance.

In conclusion, PVC sanitary pipes and fittings, including offerings from PVC distributors and industry leaders like Wavin, provide unmatched performance, sustainability, and value. Their ability to ensure seamless water and waste flow makes them indispensable in today’s plumbing systems, offering a long-term solution for builders, homeowners, and facility managers alike.

whatever, i dunno

different guy comes in with Vadim. Looks at the drain, unscrews it from the outlet pipe, comments that it should be caulked in and it's not. Doesn't say anything about the fact that it's kinked. I ask why everything is crooked, and can it be redone? He says it's jank because the contractor above them and the lead plumbing crew working on the main plumbing agreed that running everything in stainless steel pipe with correctly fitting jackets would cost too much, so they went with pvc and T junction connectors instead. "I guess they decided silicone caulk was too expensive, too. So when they came across the plywood in the wall and realized it wasn't plumb, they just slanted the pvc in the same direction and said hey whatever. But if the outlet on the exterior is clogged, this unit and the other two above it are gonna go haywire." I ask if it can be fixed. He says "Not without taking the whole wall apart. And if it's happening here, it's happening everywhere else in the building, too."

Apt manager: "I'm gonna ask for enough money to do this in all the other rooms, cut a hole under each AC outlet and seal all the drains like that. Clearly this is going to keep happening, so we might as well."

I'm thinking back to what my construction wizard dad taught me about drywall and insulation, and what my mom - who worked for a plumbing company for fifteen years - taught me about pvc vs stainless vs copper, and how no amount of silicone is going to save an AC unit from backing up and leaking into the insulation if the main outlet pipe is connected to kinked drains.

I didn't say anything, because Vadim is nice but he doesn't listen to me when I speak. Whoever this third guy is that the AC company sent, he was nice enough to use Professional Jargon to explain to me why the drain is fucky, but he didn't have shit to say about the crooked outlet pipe, just the connectors. My dude. I appreciate that you're not patronizing me, and maybe you're trying to spare me from the reality of the whole building being fucked, but don't tell me it's a tiny thing that's not gonna backfire once I need to turn the heat on.

I don't know. Maybe it's just a neurodivergence thing. I could almost have patience for the bullshit happening in the thirty year old building I was living in last year - even when it flooded in January - but this building I'm in now is EXACTLY SEVEN MONTHS OLD TO THE DAY and it has more than one of the exact same internal issues.

I understand now why my parents and grandparents were always bitching, "everything's half assed these days." It's not "nobody wants to work anymore," it's "the money is more important than the work, but that makes everything more expensive because short term gains are more important to these assholes than long term sustainability."

I'm not a gambling man - I never have been - but if there's not some kind of catastrophic health and safety issue happening in this damn place in January, I'll be absolutely gobsmacked.

Everything is broken, physically, logically, economically. Just gotta keep David Byrne at top of mind so I don't spiral. Same as it ever was. Same as it wver was. Water dissolving and water removing. There is water at the bottom of the ocean. Carry the water, remove the water, there is water at the bottom of the ocean.

Emergency Plumbing Supplies Every Contractor Should Have

When it comes to plumbing, emergencies can strike at the most inconvenient times—leaky pipes at midnight, broken water heaters on holiday, or clogged drains right before a big event. Whether you're a seasoned professional or starting, having the right tools can mean the difference between a quick fix and a long, stressful day. In this blog, we’ll dive into the essential emergency plumbing supplies that every contractor should have in their toolkit. And for those in the area, don't forget to check out the top emergency plumbing suppliers Melbourne offers!

The Foundation of Preparedness: Essential Tools

When disaster strikes, the first step is to have the right tools at your disposal. Here’s what every contractor’s toolkit should include:

1. Pipe Wrenches

A pipe wrench is the MVP of any plumbing toolkit. It is indispensable whether you're tightening, loosening, or turning pipes. Opt for a set that includes various sizes to handle different pipe diameters.

2. Plumbers Tape

Also known as Teflon tape, plumber's tape is crucial for preventing leaks. It provides a watertight seal between threaded pipe connections, and a roll or two of this tape can be a lifesaver in an emergency.

3. Pipe Cutters

A good pipe cutter is essential for making clean cuts on copper, PVC, and other pipe materials. This tool ensures that you can quickly replace damaged sections with minimal fuss.

4. Plunger

No toolkit is complete without a trusty plunger. It’s the go-to tool for unclogging drains and toilets. Keep a high-quality plunger on hand to tackle those stubborn blockages.

5. Pipe Sealants and Adhesives

Pipe sealants and adhesives are crucial for creating strong, leak-proof joints. Whether you’re dealing with PVC, metal, or other materials, having a selection of sealants ensures you can make quick repairs.

6. Replacement Parts: The Essentials

From faucets and hoses to fittings and connectors, having a stash of common replacement parts can save you valuable time. Plumbing suppliers in Melbourne often stock these essentials, ensuring you’re never caught off guard.

7. Drain Cleaners: For the Tough Jobs

Sometimes, a plunger just won’t cut it. For those tough clogs, have a range of drain cleaners on hand. Look for products that are effective yet safe for pipes.

8. Teflon Tape

Small but mighty, Teflon tape is a must-have for sealing pipe threads to prevent leaks. It’s essential for any emergency repair involving threaded pipes, fittings, or valves. Always keep a few rolls in your toolbox.

9.  Safety Gear: Protect Yourself 

Being prepared means having a well-stocked kit you can rely on when the unexpected happens. Emergencies can be stressful, but having the right supplies from plumbing suppliers can make all the difference. It’s not just about having tools; it’s about having the confidence to handle any plumbing emergency with efficiency and expertise.

Remember safety gear. Gloves, goggles, and masks are essential to protect yourself while handling potentially hazardous materials or working in tight spaces.

Why Quality Matters

Quality is critical when it comes to emergency repairs. Investing in durable, reliable tools from reputable plumbing suppliers ensures you're ready for any situation. Cheap tools may save money upfront, but they can only succeed when you need them most, leading to more headaches and potential damage.

Conclusion

In the world of plumbing, emergencies are bound to happen. However, with the right supplies and tools from plumbing suppliers in Melbourne, you’ll be prepared to tackle any situation that comes your way. By stocking up on essential items and planning, you can ensure that you’re always ready to provide top-notch service, no matter what. So, the next time you’re gearing up for a job, remember a well-prepared contractor is a successful contractor.
