Bored Pile Foundation - Advantages, Disadvantages & Techniques - Piletech
Saved by uncleflo on January 16th, 2022.
Bored pile also referred to as drilled shaft at some places is a kind of reinforced-concrete base that holds frameworks carrying heavy vertical loads in place. A bored pile is basically the concrete cast-in-place, which means that the pile is cast on the site of the building. The arrangement varies from other concrete foundation designs, such as spun pile or reinforced concrete square pile foundations, which make use of concrete precast platforms. Bored piling is used extensively for bridge construction, tall buildings, and other large industrial projects, which all require deep and intensive bases. Apart from the foundation systems, Bored piles are also used to build formative underground barriers for earth retention. Piles may be stacked next to each other, with 75 – 150 mm gap in-between— referred to as contiguous pile wall, or they can be positioned in a way that they coincide, creating stable and robust fencing, often used to regulate groundwater movement.

Ground source heat pumps - Designing Buildings Wiki
Saved by uncleflo on December 18th, 2019.
Heat is stored by the thermal mass of the ground of water thermal. There are two types of heat sources: In the UK just a few metres below our feet the ground keeps a constant temperature of about 11-12°C throughout the year. The Earth’s internal heat was originally produced during accretion. Since then heat has been produced by the radioactive decay of elements such as uranium, thorium and potassium. Due to its high enthalpy, this type of heat is often harvested in volcanic areas for electricity production and large district heating. The majority of heat stored right in the Earth’s surface comes from the sun. This heat is widely available, and because of its low enthalpy, it is often harvested for local heat pump applications.

Crocker's Folly - Since 1898
Saved by uncleflo on January 6th, 2019.
The hotel changed its name to Crocker’s Folly in 1987. In 2004, the pub was placed on the English Heritage Buildings ‘At Risk’ Register and the future looked bleak until it was purchased once again, by The Maroush Group. 'Now we’re proud to show off the Victorian design in our beautiful, Grade II listed building'. Our special saloon bar still features the same 50 kinds of marble, plus Romanesque columns and carved mahogany. The Lord's Room (or dining area) even has the original high ceilings, grand fireplace and spectacular crystal chandelier! We can't wait for you see the way this space has been transformed into the Crocker’s Folly we love today! We’re sure Frank Crocker would be proud.

Water systems - Jones Boatyard
Saved by uncleflo on January 4th, 2019.
Most enclosed boats will have some kind of water system on board, ranging from a single manual pump operated tap to a system featuring hot and cold water with mixer taps and showers. Marine plumbing can be a daunting subject but most pleasure craft designed for river use have surprisingly similar water systems and understanding the function of just a few key common components can really help to gain a good understanding of marine plumbing. Unlike domestic plumbing where water pressure is generally created by gravity, boats require an electric pump to generate water pressure as tanks are often level with or below the outlets they serve. The pump is therefore the heart of the system and works by cycling on and off to maintain the desired pressure and a good flow when you open a tap. Most pumps are switched on and off automatically via a pressure switch inside the pump, though some smaller pumps rely on micro switches within the taps themselves. Pumps do differ in the pressure they provide (usually in PSI) and the flow rate (usually in GPM or LPM). The size of your boat, the number of outlets the pump will serve and the complexity of the water system will dictate which pump you will need.

How to Make a Concrete Garden Statue at Home
Saved by uncleflo on November 29th, 2018.
A few years ago I decided to order a Buddha garden statue mold online because I wanted to start making these statues and selling them. They are fairly easy to make they just require a little hard work and there are a few things that you can do which help to improve the quality of the finished product. Firstly though I will tell you the things which you will need to make the statue. You will need a mold which you can buy online or you can make your own. I will be putting a hub up soon which shows you how to make your own. You will also need some cement, some sand , some pea gravel, water, a container to mix your concrete in, a spade or something that you can mix your concrete with, a rubber mallet, some silicone spray and some carpet. You can also find a product which is called concentrated plasticiser. I have found that this product helps to reduce air bubbles and also makes the statues stronger and less likely to crack.

ABB Robotics - Milling Sculpture in Natural Stone
Saved by uncleflo on November 29th, 2018.
In the last few years Robot integrator T&D in collaboration with a leading supplier of natural stone, Marmi e Graniti d'Italia (MGI), has applied its technology and innovation for applications in the stone industry. One of the latest frontiers in the field is definitely the interaction between ABB robots and natural stone. Using the creation of a replica of artist Amedeo Modigliani's infamous "HEAD" sculpture in white granite, T&D explored the application of a robotic milling system to evaluate whether industrial robots are capable of the demands and challenges that processing stone requires. The results of the experiment surpassed all expectations offering a quality of cut comparable to CNC machinery. The possibility of perfecting the approach, integrating milling and polishing, is currently being explored in collaboration with ABB integrator T&D Robotics.

Début 2011, lors d'un voyage nous avons découvert par hasard au confin du Maroc, le Marbre Fossilifère. Cela a été un véritable coup de foudre! Depuis, nous y retournons 3 à 4 fois par an et avons lié des amitiés sincères avec plusieurs artisans. Ce marbre est exploité depuis une quarantaine d'années et a permis de développer un véritable savoir faire local. C'est au centre du bassin du grand Tafilalet, à l'extrème Sud-Est du Maroc, que nous retrouvons nos gisements. La région surplombe une vallée allongée sur l'oasis et côtoie les immenses dunes de sable doré de Merzouga...premières dunes du Sahara...

American Institute of Steel Construction, Founded 1921 - There's always a solution in steel
Saved by uncleflo on September 2nd, 2014.
When we started working on the project, we used a lot of cutting edge tools, especially in terms of 3-D modeling and the fabrication machinery used to execute this incredibly complex design. But since then, a funny thing has happened. What we thought was cutting edge has become the norm. However, when I tell this to people (even people in the steel industry), they initially look skeptical. They tell me steel is an old, mature, smoke-stack industry. But while steel has been the material of choice for construction for most of the past century, it doesn't mean it's not a modern industry with new technology (ranging from improvements in the properties of steel to better equipment and new communication and design tools). And fortunately, on September 19, you have a chance to see for yourself.

Designing the Windows 8 touch keyboard - Building Windows 8 - Site Home - MSDN Blogs
Saved by uncleflo on January 22nd, 2013.
When we began planning how touch and new types of PCs might work on Windows 8, we recognized the need to provide an effective method for text entry on tablets and other touch screen PCs. Since Windows XP SP1, which had Tablet PC features built in, Windows has included a touchable on-screen keyboard. But those features were designed as extensions to the desktop experience. For Windows 8, we set out to improve on that model and introduce text input support that meets people’s needs, matches our design principles, and works well with the form factors we see today and expect to see in the future. I’m writing this blog post on our Windows 8 touch keyboard using the standard QWERTY layout in English. As I look at it, the keyboard seems very simple and sort of obvious. This comes partly from having worked on it for a while, but also because keyboards are familiar to us. But there is more here than meets the eye (or, fingertips).
