The material
Reinforced concrete, reinforcement, residences and the coastline they stand on — the vocabulary of the work, uncaptioned on purpose.

Next step
A county notice in your hand, a building that worries you or a new project — describe it and attach what you have. A phone photo of the letter is enough. You hear back from the engineer, with questions or with a written proposal.
