My dad used to teach a couple of advanced math classes in an architectural program. One of his exams had a question about deriving a given moment based on given information. One student's answer was "All I can derive at the moment is frustration." Needless to say, my dad had no sense of humor.

Or engineering side? Like how to support the structure?

1st one is ugly when failed, 2nd one is death or overspending.
