Architectural Presentation - POLYSTYRENE USED FOR HEAT INSULATION. 2008-03-07 21:37:00 WHAT IS HEAT INSULATION?Heat insulation is the method of preventing heat from escaping a container or from entering the container. In other words, thermal insulation can keep an enclosed area such as a building warm, or it can keep the inside of a container cold. Heat is transferred from one material to another by conduction, convection and/or radiation. Insulators are used to minimize transfer of heat energy. Molded Expanded Polystyrene (MEPS) Foam BoardMEPS is a closed-cell material that can be molded into many items, such as coffee cups and shipping materials, or into large sheets as construction insulation. This material is commonly known as "bead board," and it has R-value of about 4 per inch of thickness [2.54 cm].R-valueThe R-value of a material is its resistance to heat flow and is

In order to save water & labor, most intensive landscape plantings are being developed with automatically controlled systems.Irrigation systems have become an increasingly large part of landscape construction budgets. OBJECTIVE:To supply water in usable amounts to the root zone of the plants. To accomplish this it is necessary to consider the soil conditions and the growth characteristics of the land.INTRODUCTION:SOIL CHARACTERISTICS:Infiltration rate Read more:presentation
DIAPHRAGM WALLS 2008-03-03 11:36:00 Diaphragm walls refers to the construction of in-situ retaining vertical walls by deep trench excavation method.Stability of the sides of the excavation is ensured by bentonite slurry. Hence these types of walls are also termed at times as ‘slurry walls’The wall is constructed in panels and the length of typical panel is between 2.5 to 7m.Standard methods of constructing retaining walls require temporary form work and supports. These become uneconomical after a certain depth. The construction of the work above ground cannot proceed till the basement work is complete. This involves more time for construction.Use of diaphragm wall construction eliminates the need for formwork and temporary support and also allows above ground construction to proceed along with basement constructionPurpos
STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS AND THEIR FIRE RESISTANCE 2008-03-03 05:07:00 INTRODUCTIONThe fire resistance of a structural member may be defined as its ability to withstand exposure to fire without loss of load bearing function or ability to act as a barrier to spread of fire. This provides time to permit people to evacuate a building before it collapses and is essential in confining fire to the compartment in which it starts.Prediction of the fire behavior of structural members involves the calculation of fire temperatures and the temperature, deformation and strength of the members .FIRE RESISTANT CONSTRUCTION.In a fire resistant construction, the maximum use of non-combustible material should be encouraged.the structural members like beams ,columns,floors,roofs etc. should be constructed in such a way that they should continue to function as structural memb

Architectural Presentation - ASBESTOS CEMENT SHEETS FOR HEAT INSULATION 2008-03-01 02:50:00 Heat Insulation:Heat insulation of any material is the resistance provided to the transfer of heat from the higher temp. to the lower temp.Heat Resistance (R) is defined as: Number of hrs for 1 watt of energy to transfer heat from 1sqm of area with a temp difference of 1*C.The heat resistance of any material is denoted by R. But for combination of materials it is U-value, which is the reciprocal of the R value.Need of Heat insulationThe excessive use of artificial mechanisms for achieving the comfort level, has led to high emissions of chlorofluorocarbons & other poisonous gases.Government of India has passed an Environment act, which will be applied in 2007.According to this act the external envelop of any structure must have a U-value of min 0.5 W/m2K.What is Asbestos cement?Asbestos i

THERMAL INSULATION USING FIBRE BOARDS 2008-02-25 10:16:00 IntroductionThe primary purpose of building’s thermal insulation is to control heat transfer and thereby protect a building from excessive heat loss during cold seasons and heat gain during hot seasons. This comfort effectively reduce the amount of energy required by a building’s heating and cooling equipment to maintain condition for human comfort.Requirements for insulationInsulations main function is to keep the heat in. To be effective, insulation must be the following:resistant to heat flowable to feel the space evenly and completelyDurable, andFor some location able withstand exposure to heat for moisturesSeveral different insulation materials may be used at different locations in the house envelope, depending on the space available for the insulation, ease of access and other

Reasons to see red over green energy, Government apathy sabotages Britain's shift to a low-carbon economy 2008-02-24 07:35:00 Engineers fitting solar panels to a roof at Silvertown solar village, Docklands, London.You'd hope, wouldn't you, that the government department responsible for energy to heat our homes, power our cars and so on would be on top of two key issues - a switch to a low-carbon economy
and the possibility that oil might run out sooner than we thought.Both these issues should concern us greatly and, indeed, there is growing discussion of them everywhere. But, the Department of Business As Usual (DBERR) doesn't seem to be on the case at all.It spends most of its time pointlessly changing its name (from the Department for Trade and Industry, you will recall) or changing ministers so often that few have time to get their feet under the desk before they are gone.Ed Matthew of Friends of the Earth put Read more:Reasons
