LEVELING:

Both are finishing tools that push down aggregate while bringing the cream, or paste, to the surface.

a straight edge used to level concrete

Smoothing:

This process consolidates the aggregate, pulls cream to the surface, and cuts the mud to the right height with one tool. It also works to remove imperfections and leave you with a flatter, smoother surface. 

Final Touches:

used to roughen up the surface of the concrete for a non-slip finish without being uncomfortable to walk on with bare feet.

carried out by a flame produced by burning approximately equal volumes of oxygen and acetylene which are delivered at equal pressures from gas bottles to a welding torch.

welding using the heat of an arc as a heat source

the method used to join two plain metal work pieces together by running an electrical current through them. The necessary welding heat is generated by the electrical resistance of the metals, by the contact resistance in between them and by the electrical current.

TYPE OF LOCK SEAM

TYPE OF LOCK SEAM

In this technique, the infill element is placed and attached to the frame using proper attaching agents such as silicone sealant. The sealant application process should be conducted properly otherwise the attachment agent would not work suitably. For example, the perimeter need to be prepared sufficiently and then the sealant element is applied to the perimeter.

This system has been used since 1960s and it has undergone some development but its basics remain the same. It consists of strengthened or tempered glass through which holes are provided to attach it to the structure using proper means such as bolted fittings

Another type of glazing panel construction that provide substantial views. It is an elegant glazing panels that does not need framing but it could be costly and expensive. Due to the effect on loading on the panels, not only does cable net structural analysis is required to be carry out accurately but also construction works need massive coordination.

- Construction is quite complex and consist of two skin of glass or façade, and the space between the facades is employed to manipulate energy comes from sunlight and ventilation are installed that employs the warm air in the space between glass walls.

- This type of curtain is considered to be the most expensive compared to other ordinary types of panel construction.

The common designation for systems utilizing pre-formed high performance compression fitting gaskets on both sides of the glass to provide a seal.

a glazing system in which sheets of tempered glass are suspended from special clamps, stabilized by perpendicular stiffeners of tempered glass, and joined by a structural silicone sealant or by metal patch

WHAT TYPE OF VAULT IS THIS?

Features series of concrete panels tilted up into place to form a building’s exterior wall. These panels are created at the work site using wood forms, rebar and concrete. The forms are shaped and rebar cut to match final designs. Next, concrete is poured into the forms and finished.

Technique whereby concrete floor slabs are poured on the ground, one on top of the other, and then lifted into place on top of columns by hydraulic jacks. Used for very tall multistory buildings, this method offers substantial savings in formwork.

WHAT SHELL CONSTRUCTION IS THIS?

A rigid frame is the load-resisting skeleton constructed with straight or curved members interconnected by mostly rigid connections, which resist movements induced at the joints of members

A structural system designed to resist wind and earthquake forces. Members in a braced frame are not allowed to sway laterally (which can be done using shear wall or a diagonal steel sections, similar to a truss).

a framework of diagonally intersecting members formed with elements like metal, concrete or wooden beams. Increasingly widespread, this type of structural system is used in large span and high rise buildings, especially those with complex or curvilinear geometry.

three-dimensional structures with longitudinal members connected at their ends by hinges assumed to be frictionless. The loads on space trusses are applied only at the nodes or joints, thus the self-weight is allocated for each element at its two ends joining other elements of the truss.

WHAT TYPE OF TUBE STRUCTURE IS THIS?

Also known as a harmonic absorber or seismic damper, is a device mounted in structures to reduce mechanical vibrations, consisting of a mass mounted on one or more damped springs. Its oscillation frequency is tuned to be similar to the resonant frequency of the object it is mounted to, and reduces the object's maximum amplitude while weighing much less than it.
