(Jar Test / Sedimentation Test)
In this article, I’ll try to clearly explain what this test
is and how to perform it properly.
It’s no secret that this test is very often assigned to field personnel, and
they need a solid guide to avoid mistakes and obtain reliable measurements.
A Familiar Problem
If you have
ever transferred photos from an iPhone or iPad to a Windows computer, you have
almost certainly encountered the HEIC / HEIF format.
The photos
are there and take up disk space, but:
The most
reliable solution is converting them to JPG, a format that everyone can
open.
In geotechnical and site-development work, soil texture testing is one of those tasks that seems simple on paper but often becomes messy in real life.
🕒 My Personal Time Tracking Application
Over time, I realized that most popular time trackers
don’t really fit my needs.
They are often overloaded with features, require constant internet
access, or store data somewhere in the cloud.
So I decided to build my own personal time tracking application —
simple, autonomous, and fully under my control.
quickly and neatly assembling photos into a PDF — for reports, clients, submissions, or archives.
Photos are usually stored in folders, sometimes dozens of subfolders.
You need to:
reduce them to a reasonable size,
preserve readable quality,
format everything consistently,
and avoid spending half a day on it.
That very practical pain point is what led to the creation of Pictures to PDF Optimizer.
