Book Synopsis Fantastic Ferrocement by : Peter James Harris
Download or read book Fantastic Ferrocement written by Peter James Harris and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-09-28 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (Createspace edition - Black and white version. The version with colour pictures at the back is also available on Amazon. It is of course dearer! But exactly same content.) If you have ever wanted to sculpt or build in a permanent material that is extremely strong and can be moulded to any shape, ferrocement is the medium for you - and this concise book shows you how to do it all. Tools, techniques and sample projects - a garden pot, angel, dome, and more - are all logically described and illustrated. The many photos showing the building of Cafe Eutopia by the author and his family will inspire as well as inform, while the introduction and 'Origins' story and updates on the progress of a ferrocement cafe and 'temple' to Love, Beauty, Truth, and Freedom add a deeper dimension to this book which shows the struggle to marry an abstract ideal with a (literally) concrete realisation.
Book Synopsis Latex Concrete Habitat by : Albert Knott and Ge Knott - Nez
Download or read book Latex Concrete Habitat written by Albert Knott and Ge Knott - Nez and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many war torn and poverty stricken regions, the indigenous architecture has been heavy mud and wattle roofs on thick mud walls. These structures, while cool in the summer, are of very low strength, are maintenance intensive, are time consuming to build, and are largely in massive disrepair. Replacing these mud structures with the light weight roofs of latex concrete produces a permanent architecture significantly more safe and strong, of very low maintenance, and of remarkably low cost, as the roofs can be built by available unskilled labor. The time required for reconstruction is considerably shorter than the time required to replace the older heavy construction, and the self-help characteristic of this new form of construction leads to more rapid recovery from disaster. This how-to-do-it manual teaches people how to build these new roofs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ferrocement as a material of construction is not new to building industry. The products made with this technique were generally small circular tanks for storage of water or sewage. Some attempts were also made towards making small fishing boats. This was the trend in India and South East Asia. Curved architectural forms were also made of ferrocement by hand plastering. These were labour intensive procedures, suitable where labor was cheaply available. The products attempted were not possible to be made, as a standardized factory-made, scaled up product. Proper steps needed to be identified to set unified member properties, so that the products could be factory manufactured, on a large scale.

Book Synopsis International Rainwater Catchment Systems Experiences: Towards water security by : José Arturo Gleason Espíndola
Download or read book International Rainwater Catchment Systems Experiences: Towards water security written by José Arturo Gleason Espíndola and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2020-05-15 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From time immemorial, people have been managing rain. The availability of water and water sources determined where people would be able to live. Adequate rainfall decided on the quality of agriculture. Technical advances and finance may have enabled societies to inhabit big cities and expand agriculture into dry areas, but only because of the resource rain provided through the water cycle. Due to population growth, pollution, and climate change, water scarcity will be one of the most critical problems all around the world in the next 15 years. Today, around 10% of the world’s population lacks a proper water supply service. Harvesting rainwater and using it for drinking, domestic, industrial, and agricultural uses will help to supply quality water to urban and rural populations. Divided into four sections, basic concepts, narratives of RWH, programs implemented by diverse sectors of society, and notable cases, the book summarizes experiences from 14 different countries all around the globe, developed and developing countries, urban and rural areas. The subject of this book is related to the promotion of different international rainwater experiences that provides sustainable water services and climate resilience, including technical aspects and socio-cultural and policy affairs. This book was written for all people interested in sustainable rainwater management. Students, people just starting in the subject, and experts will find this book interesting as it creates an overview of rainwater harvesting practice and technology all around the world. We encourage all readers to read these stories and arguments at your leisure. Some many ideas and techniques can be picked up and applicable for serving the last 10% that is waiting for water security and proper water service.

Book Synopsis Thin-Walled Structures by : J.Y. Richard Liew
Download or read book Thin-Walled Structures written by J.Y. Richard Liew and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1998-11-27 with total page 841 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thin-plated structures are used extensively in building construction, automobile, aircraft, shipbuilding and other industries because of a number of favourable factors such as high strength-weight ratio, development of new materials and processes and the availability of efficient analytical methods. This class of structure is made by joining thin plates together at their edges and they rely for their rigidity and strength upon the tremendous stiffness and load-carrying capacity of the flat plates from which they are made. Many of the problems encountered in these structures arise because of the effects of local buckling. The knowledge of various facets of this phenomenon has increased dramatically since the 1960s. Problem areas which were hitherto either too complex for rigorous analysis or whose subtleties were not fully realized have in these years been subjected to intensive study. Great advances have been made in the areas of inelastic buckling. The growth in use of lightweight strong materials, such as fibre-reinforced plastics has also been a contributory factor towards the need for advances in the knowledge of the far post-buckling range. The conference is a sequel to the international conference organised by the University of Strathclyde in December 1996 and this international gathering will provide the opportunity for discussion of recent developments and trends in design of thin-walled structures.
