Low-e and IGU makeup.State-of-the-art EC devices achieve optical control through absorption so placing the EC coating on the #2 surface1with a low-e coating on the #2 or #3 surface of a dual-pane unit is critical in achieving adequate modulation of solar loads for commercial building ...
The use of timber for cladding and other building functions was originally driven by a need to use what was locally available and affordable for the purpose, rather than any aesthetic, or other, consideration, and was therefore much more prevalent in forested regions. Before the advent of brick...

A slight increase in bucket fill factor can save thousands of bucket loads annually, and thus lead to increased productivity and decreased maintenance costs. Numerical modeling and simulation of granular material have in the last decades been extensively studied with different methods and for different...
Fatigue testing has shown that compacted asphalt concrete will fail at significantly lower loads after repeated loading cycles (fatigue strength). ASTM has developed a standard test procedure (D7460) to evaluate this phenomenon. Testing has shown that fatigue strengths may be only 55-60% of the ...
A :No! The dead air space between Stone coated metal roofing Panel sand the roof decking combined with the stone coating dampens exterior noise even in a rainstorm. Q : How Long do BIPVs Last? A :Another added economic benefit with some BIPV systems is...

Foam concrete (FC), recognized as a lightweight construction material, has gained attention for its potential to reduce structural dead loads. However, achieving constant strength due to the lack of standardized mix design remains a challenging factor in FC. To streamline this process, researchers ...
Compressive strength is the capacity of material to withstand loads or resist the pressure applied by the compression machine. In order to verify the consistency and efficiency of manufactured concrete, mortar and others, this property is the basic parameter that is extensively tested for most buildin...
The horizontally oriented timber in traditional log construction is tipped vertically to align wood fiber with structural stresses, more efficiently bearing live and dead loads. The increased structural efficiency allowed for the removal of material in the timber section. The profile of the timber ...
