    That's pretty cool the word (symbol? character?) for construction looks like an I beam.

      Pictographs can be fun like that. Like the character for "fire" looks kinda like a camp fire. You got your little pyramid of wood and two little "flames" coming off it.

      it originally depicted some variant of this but yeah the I-beam definitely helped cement* the continued use of this character
