Schlitterbahn

I am sure mech stamps for pump design, etc, but still not for ride purposes.   Just that the volume, pressure, etc will be whatever rates they were asked to design to.

This is basically how it works. The mechanical engineer gets drawings from the aquatics folks stating flows/pressures/etc. that they need at certain points of the ride. It's just plug and play from our end on that sort of thing. It's also the same way with Food Service Consultants and large commercial kitchens.

Do the projectile motion calculations not need a stamp?  I'm assuming not at this point.

How do they come up with the figures in these cases? Like how much is a life worth?

Weren't resident assholes literally joking the family wouldn't get crap because of some stupid punitive damage limits that backwards Kansas allegedly  has?

I think they are going to have to pay out quite a bit more to the other people who witnessed the event for mental pain and suffering

That is pretty normal and the SCOTUS has even limited punis.

They are outlawed in white trash meccas like Nebraska and Washington

actuaries can calculate all sorts of things like the value of a life based on age and expected earnings, etc.

Isn't them being overweight what caused his death?

And negligence on the part of the staff

also a lack of safety measures in the engineering

state should also be sued for doing a shitty job regulating

Well, they can't be (unless they've consented to being sued). Do you really think it would be a good idea to open up the courts to suits against states for regulating too little or too much?

when you aren't a law student it makes sense. I know it won't happen but still

I think you should be able to sue anyone for anything. I do think it would be bad if the courts would rule against the state in a case like this, though.
