Academical

Derogatory term to describe an Engineer or upper Management. It can also be used to describe their proposed solution.

as an adjective -- insufferably obtuse
as a noun -- an un-entertaining charlatan

It is normally told to an Engineer, sometimes upper Management by either an Inspector or Construction Trash Contractor. It is intended to imply the person has no real world experience and only theoretical understanding of how to do a job. It is a professional and eloquent way of calling someone “A stupid mother fucker who has no real world experience.” It is especially amusing when it goes over the persons head and they are oblivious to the major fucking insult you gave them. It is also used to imply that although their book says it is theoretically possible. Real world experienced people know there is no way in fucking hell it will work or it is completely unnecessary. You are astounded at their unprecedented level of stupidity and their lack of experience is shockingly apparent. They refuse to listen to your opinion because you do not have a degree like them and they look down on you even though you graduated from the school of hard knocks. You reluctantly agree to do it their way because you have front row seats to the fucking colossal shit that is about to unfold or you are making a lot of money doing unnecessary work. You do dread hearing the workers relentlessly bitch about how fucking stupid of an idea it or or how much of a fucking waist of time it is to do that.
This is Jimbo, he is an acadamical engineer.

Person A: This is how the book says you need to do this job.

Person B: We will do the job how you want although that step is academical.

Person A: I do not understand how it does not fit. It is built to the drawings.

Person B: The drawings are academic. You are not taking the fact that you are trying to hard pipe 45 connections with no flex to a header.
