Our raw material
Wood is a natural material and an essential element when building a house.More and more clients are deciding on having their houses built solely with this natural material. Whether as a timber-framed construction with panels in solid wood or as a massive wood construction, wood can be handled to suit all tastes.
Thanks to a professional team of joiners, roofers and carpenters, the JANS groupe can make dreams of an individual wooden home come true. But what are the advantages of a house made of wood? Choosing a wooden house can primarily be seen as forward-looking. This ecological, natural and high-quality material enables house dreams to be realized in far less time than would be needed for traditional construction. Another important aspect lies in the sense of wellbeing and comfort, created by a wooden house. Wood has excellent insulating properties and naturally regulates room temperature. It’s always agreeably warm in winter and pleasantly cool in summer.
With JANS holzbau, we build a comfortable and high-quality home. We focus on sustainability and energy efficiency and construct custom-made timber houses to suit our clients’ individual wishes.
Solid wood construction
In recent years, solid wood construction has become more and more popular.For simple reasons – solid wood construction is a very fast and also entirely dry construction method, enabling you to move into your new house or extension within a short space of time. In addition, wood is an excellent, durable, sustainable and ecological building material that retains its value. This method of solid wood construction fulfills the LENOZ Sustainable Homes certificate requirements.
Solid wood construction also offers excellent physical properties: wall elements are permeable, making vapour-control layers/barriers unnecessary, providing very good heat insulation and also natural heat protection, sound insulation and outstanding fire protection due to a long fire resistance time.
Solid wood houses provide a healthy and comfortable indoor climate, as the timber walls optimally absorb warmth and room humidity and their surface remains a pleasant temperature. They can be individually custom-designed using architectural plans. Elements are prefabricated in the factory and erected on-site, making the house’s weatherproof construction possible within just a few days. Outer insulation is usually made of wood-fibre insulation boards, which provide an environmentally-friendly and sustainable insulation solution. The wall structure is approximately 25 % thinner than structures built using customary heat-insulating bricks and offers a few extra square metres of living space, while retaining the original building size. It makes no difference whether the cladding uses plaster base boards, plaster or wood, the homeowner has creative freedom, which also applies to the design of the entire house. Plasterboard or gypsum fibre boards are recommended for interior construction, allowing the wood surface to remain visible. Architectural creativity knows no bounds – both inside and outside.
Addition and extension
Solid wood and timber-frame construction is ideal for adding storeys to buildings and energy-saving renovation, and offers homeowners numerous advantages in comparison to solid construction methods.Wood is a natural, sustainable, environmentally friendly and lightweight material. The extension or addition of a storey is planned in precise detail, before the new construction elements are prefabricated at the factory. Compared to a solid construction, this reduces the construction period considerably and enables you to remain in your house while the work is being completed.
The prefabricated modules are assembled on-site, insulated and made weatherproof. No drying period is required, allowing extension work and interior design to begin straight away.
Timber-frame construction is a traditional form of wooden construction and consists of a support frame made of solid wooden uprights. The spaces in between are filled with air-injected wood-fibre insulation material.As in the case of solid timber construction, most of this framework can also be prefabricated. This process guarantees a very speedy and entirely dry construction process and allows clients to move into the new house or extension within a short period of time. Wood is an excellent, durable, sustainable, and ecological building material that retains its value. Its natural characteristics provide extremely good thermal insulation and protection, and also guarantee good sound insulation.
Timber-frame construction offers further benefits in addition to the possibility of prefabrication: in comparison to solid construction, the building period is significantly reduced, there are no drying periods thanks to the dry construction method, the building weighs less than a solid building construction and only features natural materials – framework, insulation, and also the panels are made entirely of wood. All of these properties have allowed the timber-frame construction method to awarded LENOZ certification for Sustainable Homes.
Your house can be customised according to the architectural plans and thanks to precise preliminary planning we can erect a house and waterproof it within just a few days. The wall structures are lighter and slimmer than walls built using standard heat-insulating bricks, which creates a few extra square metres of useful living space, but retains the original size of the building at the same time.
Homeowners profit from further significant advantages: interior and façade can be custom-designed and room layout is flexible. Walls are usually constructed with plasterboard or gypsum fibre boards, which also allow homeowners to do their own interior construction work if they so wish. In addition, they have freedom of choice when deciding on cladding materials – be it plaster, timber cladding or Trespa panels.

New Bridge Dedication
November 3, 2010 marked the opening of the new Sanders Brothers Veterans Bridge. The Sanders brothers along with their fellow veterans aboard the Tri River Transit bus were the first citizens to cross the Guyandotte River on the new bridge. The old Midkiff Truss has served the traveling public since construction in 1925. In 2006 by proclamation of House Resolution #44 sponsered by Delgates Eldridge, Butcher, Krutkay and Barker the bridge was named Sanders Brothers Veterans Bridge in honor of two Linclon County veterans -Wetzel and Howard Sanders. Wetzel and Howard have received numerous awards for their outstanding service to our country.
Wetzel Sanders is the sole Pearl Harbor survivor in Lincoln County and is currently employed by Tri River Transit.


Background – Sustainable Groundwater Management Act
The City of Corona (City) relies on local groundwater basins for a significant source of its water supply. Recognizing the importance of groundwater to communities like Corona, the state legislature enacted the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act of 2014 (SGMA). SGMA provides local water agencies with important new groundwater management tools not previously available for the purpose of achieving sustainable groundwater use.
In order to implement SGMA, the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) has prioritized all of the Designated Groundwater Basins in California as high, medium, low, or very low. In accordance with SGMA, DWR requires the formation of Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSAs) that cover the entire basin for all medium and high priority Groundwater Basins. A GSA can be a single agency, or a group of agencies coordinating the sustainable planning and management of the basin.
In 2008, the City adopted a Groundwater Management Plan (GWMP) for portions of two DWR-designated groundwater basins from which the City relies on for water supply: the Temescal Subbasin of the Upper Santa Ana Valley Groundwater Basin (No. 8-2.09) and a hydraulically distinct northwestern portion of the Elsinore Basin (No. 8-4), referred to locally as the Bedford-Coldwater area. DWR has designated the Temescal Subbasin and the Elsinore Basin as medium priority and high priority, respectively. Corona has been actively managing groundwater resources in the Temescal Subbasin for decades. The City, in coordination with Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District (EVMWD) and Temescal Valley Water District (TVWD), also manages groundwater in the Bedford-Coldwater area. Groundwater in the remainder of the Elsinore Basin (southeast of the Bedford-Coldwater area) is managed by EVMWD as described in its 2005 GWMP.
Basin Boundary Modifications
Successful groundwater management relies on accurate delineation of groundwater basins. DWR has defined and designated 515 groundwater basins and subbasins in California. However, DWR and SGMA recognize that some of the groundwater basin designations are imperfect and, in some cases, could better support sustainable management with revised boundaries. SGMA includes a process for modifying groundwater basin boundaries from the current official delineations in DWR Bulletin 118. This process allows local agencies to request Basin boundary modifications from DWR, and provides opportunities for public and agency input. In November 2015, DWR finalized regulations for requesting modifications for basin boundaries and initiated a 90-day basin boundary modification period on January 1, 2016.
Proposed Boundary Modifications
The northwestern portion of the current Elsinore Basin from which Corona pumps groundwater is within the Temescal Wash watershed, and is locally referred to as the Bedford-Coldwater area. The City of Corona is coordinating closely with TVWD (formerly Lee Lake Water District) and EVMWD to explore a potential basin boundary modification request from DWR to create a new groundwater basin covering the Bedford-Coldwater area. This boundary modification request would also include realignment of the existing Elsinore Basin boundaries to match the alluvium of the Elsinore Valley and Temescal Wash areas, as mapped by the United States Geological Survey (USGS). The City, TVWD, and EVWMD are submitting a combined request for boundary modifications, as required DWR.
The basin boundary modification request will document the benefits and need for the Elsinore Basin boundary modifications and creation of the new Bedford-Coldwater Basin:
- The Elsinore Basin and proposed new Bedford-Coldwater Basin boundaries would be modified to align with the alluvial deposits as mapped by the USGS, a change that would result in better correlation between the description in DWR Bulletin 118 and the mapped extent of the basins.
- Groundwater within the Bedford-Coldwater area is hydraulically connected to the remainder of the Elsinore Basin primarily beneath a narrow channel (referred to as Temescal Canyon) of Temescal Wash, and to a limited extent through shallow upland alluvial material. This limited connection provides a natural break for a basin boundary.
- The proposed new boundary between the Bedford-Coldwater Basin and the Elsinore Basin is located across this channel, generally separating two regional groundwater flow regimes.
- Groundwater flow north of this boundary is primarily towards the northwest and the center of the proposed Bedford-Coldwater Basin.
- Although some groundwater inflow occurs across this boundary from the south, most of the groundwater in the remainder of the Elsinore Basin flows southeast toward the basin center.
- The canyon contains shallow bedrock and thin alluvial sediments, which restrict the volume of subsurface inflow across the boundary.
- Recharge within the Bedford-Coldwater area primarily occurs from runoff in adjacent hills east and west of the area rather than from the small amounts of inflow from the south.
- The Elsinore Basin south of the Bedford-Coldwater area is within the service area of the EVMWD, but the Bedford-Coldwater area is outside of EVMWD.
- The City and TVWD service areas cover almost all of the Bedford-Coldwater area; those portions outside of these service areas are not within the service area of any local water agency. The agencies will coordinate with Riverside County for these currently unmanaged areas as required under SGMA.
- Corona, in coordination with EVMWD and TVWD, has long been responsible for managing groundwater conditions in the Bedford-Coldwater area. For example, the City has executed legal agreements with EVMWD for the managed withdrawals from the Coldwater area.
- Creation of this new basin would allow the City to continue to coordinate with the other agencies overlying the Bedford-Coldwater area separate from activities in the Elsinore Basin. This arrangement would facilitate activities for sustainable management of the groundwater within the Bedford-Coldwater area.
Recognizing the hydrogeologic and jurisdictional conditions in the Bedford-Coldwater area that are distinct from the remainder of the Elsinore Basin, Corona, TVWD, and EVMWD believe that more effective sustainable groundwater management will be achieved if Bedford-Coldwater is a separate groundwater basin. The modified basin boundaries of the new Bedford-Coldwater Basin and the re-aligned Elsinore Basin will be more consistent with both the hydrogeologic conceptual model and historical and ongoing management of these shared groundwater resources. A map that shows the current and proposed basin boundaries can be accessed here.
Public Notification and Consulation
The City is also closely coordinating with EVMWD and TVWD to prepare the required combined boundary modification request package. The City of Corona has notified and is coordinating with all other affected public water systems regarding this basin boundary modification request. The City is also submitting to DWR a notification of intent to pursue a basin boundary modification creating the new Bedford-Coldwater Groundwater Basin and modifying external boundaries to better match the extent of alluvial sediments.
The City of Corona and EVMWD have adopted resolutions and submitted a coordinated basin boundary modification request to DWR. That package was deemed complete by DWR on April 8, 2016. The public may provide information to support or oppose the proposed boundary modification request by submitting written notice to DWR within 30 days of the completed package. Public input must include the name, address, and electronic mail address along with a clear statement of the basis for the support or opposition to the proposed boundary modification. The public comment period closes May 7, 2016.

A pair of sustainable projects in Florida and Colorado could serve as the blueprint for the development more “smart” cities in the U.S., The Guardian reported. These projects are considered to be small in scale, although that could be an advantage given the futile attempts to deploy large sustainable city developments in the United Arab Emirates and South Korea.
The American projects comprise the Bobcock Ranch in southwest Florida and the Peña Station NEXT near the Denver International Airport. Dubbed the first solar community in the U.S., the Bobcock Ranch seeks to have the capacity supporting around 50,000 inhabitants within a site similar to the size of Manhattan in New York City.
Apart from solar energy, there are other energy-efficient sources that can help save costs and the environment. For example, service providers of commercial lighting in Tampa, Fla., offer LED products that are known to be a viable alternative to traditional lighting sources.
Pushing the Envelope
The design of the Peña Station Next in Colorado hinged on the use of modern technologies, which play an important role for defining smart cities. For instance, smart street lighting and high-speed internet are just some of the innovative features of such communities.
Panasonic took the lead in developing the Peña Station Next as a U.S. “aerotropolis,” according to The Guardian. The project drew inspiration from a mixed-use project in Japan, the 45-acre Fujisawa Sustainable Smart Town with 1,600 homes outside Tokyo.
Smart lighting solutions are well on its way to Lancaster, N.Y., with expectations of saving money, according to The Buffalo News. The small town’s streets could get a facelift when it decides to choose between two proposals involving the installation of LED lights Village leaders are expected to discuss the matter on Aug. 16.
According to an expert from AMPRO, As more sustainable and other alternative sources of energy become more mainstream, it definitely won’t take long until the practice gains traction nationwide.

Seismometer (Greek: seismos: earthquakes and metero: measure) is a tool or a vibration sensor, which is usually used to detect earthquakes or vibrations in the ground. Recordings of this instrument called a seismogram.
Prototypes of this device was first introduced in 132 BC by the Han Dynasty mathematician named Chang Heng. With this tool one can determine the future direction of where earthquakes occur.
With today’s technological developments, the ability of seismometers can be improved, so that it can record vibrations in the frequency range is quite wide. The tool is called broadband seismometers.
Seismograph is a device that measures and records earthquakes. In principle, the seismograph consists of a weight hanger and a pointed tip like a pencil. That way, it can be seen through the strength and direction of seismic motion picture of the earth as recorded in the form of seismograms.
The working principle
Seismograph has a sensitive instrument that detects seismic waves generated by earthquakes. Seismic waves that occur during an earthquake depicted as wavy lines on a seismogram. Seismologist measure these lines and calculate the magnitude of the earthquake.
Previously, only seismographs can detect horizontal movement, but this time the seismograph was able to record the movements of the vertical and lateral.
Seismograph using two mechanical movements and electromagnetic seismographer. Both types of mechanical motion can be detected both vertical movement and horizontal movement of the tools used depending whether vertical or horizontal.
Modern seismographs use electromagnetic seismographer to move volatility pull wire system to a magnetic field. Events that give rise to vibration is then detected through spejlgalvanometer. seismograph
In the mid-18th century, an earthquake is measured with an instrument called seismokop. Seismokop earthquake recording equipment is the most primitive. Seismokop consists of a simple container containing water or mercury. When an earthquake happens, the fluid will move up and down due to earthquake vibrations.
Major breakthrough for the measurement of earthquake came in 1920, when two American scientists developed a device called a Wood-Anderson seismograph. This tool is more sensitive than existing seismograph at the time, so immediately widely used around the world and became the forerunner of seismographs that now exists and develops. Currently, the seismographs used by Seismologist in studying faults and earthquakes.
Classification of Earthquake Measurement
Seismograph using two different classifications to measure seismic waves generated earthquakes, earthquake magnitude and intensity of the earthquake. The second classification of these measurements using different measurement scales. Measurement scale of the earthquake on the Richter Scale and Mercalli Scale. Richter scale used to describe the magnitude of the earthquake while the Mercalli Scale is used to indicate the intensity of an earthquake, or the influence of earthquakes on land, buildings, and people.
Classification of Magnitude Earthquake
In 1935, an American Geophysics named Charles Francis Richter (1900-1985) along with another Geophysics named Beno Gutenberg (1889-1960) developed a scale which in principle can compare all the seismograms to get a picture of a similar strength tremors. The scale is named on the Richter Scale and up to now recognized as a common standard magnitude scale.
Designed with the logarithmic Richter scale, which means that each step shows the strength that is 10 times more powerful than its predecessor. 5 on the Richter Scale indicates the crunch, that is 10 times stronger than the one at 4 and 100 times stronger than one in three on the Richter Scale. This calculation is often referred to as the Richter Scale is open, because it operates without any upper limit.

FAIRFIELD, Conn. – Fairfield’s total cost of Hurricane Sandy-related cleanup and repairs could be more than $8.8 million, according to the latest estimates. The town’s leaders hope that federal reimbursements will pay about 75 percent of that, leaving about $2.1 million that Fairfield’s taxpayers will have to cover.
Fairfield has already spent about $3.6 million in overtime wages and equipment costs for work during and immediately after the storm, Chief Fiscal Officer Robert Mayer said Wednesday. Of that, Fairfield will have to pay about $900,000 if the Federal Emergency Management Agency pays out at its usual reimbursement rate of 75 percent.
But the town will also have to rebuild or repair town infrastructure and facilities damaged by Sandy. Public Works Director Joseph Michelangelo estimated those repairs to cost more than $5.2 million. Expected FEMA grants would cover all but $1.3 million of that, if Congress approves the full package proposed by the president.
“We’d like to make the assumption that we’re going to go through and get our 75 percent approved,” First Selectman Michael Tetreau said Wednesday. “The practical reality is, we don’t know that based on what comes out of D.C. in the next few days, few weeks or few months ahead.”
The largest single project will be $1 million in repairs to Penfield Pavilion. The 2-year-old building sustained structural damage to its footings, floors and decks. The town will need to repair the damage before the pavilion can reopen to the public. Public Works will also raise the building and make other changes to prevent similar damage in the future.
The town also needs to dredge the entrances to South Benson Marina, Southport Harbor and the Pine Creek inlet to remove sand and debris that washed up during the storm. Fairfield’s public beaches will also need about 20,000 cubic yards of sand to replace what was lost during Sandy.
Another $520,000 is expected to go toward repairs to Fairfield Beach Road. Stretches of pavement were torn up on the street’s western sections during Sandy. The town will need to replace the pavement and underlying groundwork and drainage. Crews will also replace the bulkhead and retaining wall near the road’s turnaround section.
Other projects include replacing the South Benson Fishing Pier, the concession stands at Sasco and Southport Beach, the Southport Beach Seawall and the Pine Creek dike, and making other minor road and building repairs along the shoreline. In total, Michelangelo outlined 24 repair projects to return Fairfield to where it was before the storm.
“We’re just going to restore what was there for the past several generations,” Michelangelo said. “The usage will be in kind, but we’ll build it to current standards so that it doesn’t happen again.”

A great advantage of hydraulic shearing machines over older shearing machines is that they are controlled by a series of codes during actual operation. These codes are of many kinds. They are mainly generated by various combinations of permutations of characters. It depends on the application required to develop the codes in the specific job.
One of the major advantages of working with hydraulic shears is the ability to control the orientation, speed and intensity of the machine more accurately. The concept of digital control is to use computer programming to operate the machine through a combination of numbers.
In addition, the hydraulic shearing machine has a very clear advantage in terms of orientation.
When the machine rotates, the adjusting lever can rotate along the central axis without dead angle, and the machine has no big noise, which can make the operator work in a quiet environment and does not affect the working mood and health of people.
The production material is high strength stainless steel, which has good corrosion resistance and strength, and can still maintain high stability in the environment with large vibration amplitude.
Moreover, this machine is not only practical, but also beautiful in appearance, and has made great progress in safety protection. The hydraulic shearing machine is equipped with a strong self-defense fence. In the event of a machine breakdown, a fence separates the operator from the machine.
The light adjustment has also greatly improved speed. It can move the light quickly and find the right position, allowing a clearer view of the exact working situation, which will bring more convenience to the production process and machine operation.

But the world's longest tunnels are definitely not the place for a car to break down. An access tunnel of 2.1 km (1.3 miles) was built from a side valley, Tynjadalen (Tønjum Valley), 6 km (3.72 miles) from the Lærdal side. Earlier this week, the new longest tunnel in the world was completed. Ted Williams is one of the longest tunnels in the United States – at 1.6 miles. (The world’s second longest, the St. Gottard Tunnel in Switzerland, is only 16.92 km, or 10 miles). The Laerdal Tunnel in West Norway is the world's longest road tunnel and cost $153 million to build, which works out at $6,250 per meter. The top six on the list are all water aqueducts (the longest being the 85-mile Delaware Aqueduct in New York State), while dozens of subway tunnels all around the world are longer than the Lærdal Tunnel. The tunnels serve different purposes in the states they are located. The United States has some of the longest tunnels in the world. This tunnel is an extension of I-90, and is located in Boston, Massachusetts. This plant keeps the air quality inside the tunnel at very high standards, removing dust particles and nitrogen dioxide from the air. This enabled the crews to drill from four sites, which shortened the construction time. The Gotthard Base Tunnel started in 2004, and travels underneath the Swiss Alps for 35.4 miles. Lærdal tunnel was the first tunnel in the world to have an air treatment plant included in the design. This tunnel was opened in 1995, and is still open today. Delaware Aqueduct is the longest tunnel in the world at 85 miles long and 13.5 feet wide. Also Read: Atal Rohtang Tunnel To Open For Traffic On October 3, 2020 The Atal Tunnel is 10.5-metre wide and offers traffic density of 3,000 cars and 1,500 trucks per day with a maximum speed of 80 kmph. This tunnel is an important part of the extension of a ferry-free road link while avoiding the destruction of the natural landscape. The Channel Tunnel, commonly referred to as the Chunnel, is the world’s longest undersea tunnel. Here are some of the longest tunnels in the US. Although Lærdal Tunnel is currently the world's longest road tunnel, it's not the longest tunnel overall. Tunnels are some of the most amazing marvels of engineering. How is the air quality inside the world's longest road tunnel? Of its 31 miles, 23 miles are situated beneath the English Channel. The great breakthrough in engineering and construction has ensured infrastructure today with a high level. Largest Tunnels in the US. It cost a reported $113.1 million to construct. The two-lane Lærdal Tunnel was ceremoniously opened by King Harald on November 27, 2000, and opened to the public in 2001. The tunnel between Aurland and Lærdal on the main road between Bergen and Oslo, Norway, measures 24.5 km. Here are the glimpses from the inauguration of #AtalTunnel, the longest highway tunnel in the world by PM @narendramodi today. After finishing, it took the title of world’s longest road tunnel, previously owned by the Swiss Gotthard Road Tunnel. (15.2 miles) in length.


Where is the micro gear flowmeter installed?
(1) The ambient temperature and humidity must comply with the regulations of the manufacturer. The general temperature is - 10 (- 15)~40 (50), and the humidity is 10%~90%.
(2) Direct sunlight in summer makes the temperature rise, close to the radiant heat. It can also increase the temperature, and sunshade or heat insulation measures should be taken in such places.
(3) Non resonant, water immersed instruments should avoid corrosive atmosphere or damp places. Because the reduction gear and other parts of Chishan Crane may be damaged due to corrosive gas and temperature difference between day and night. If it cannot be avoided, the inner chamber can be used to blow with clean air to maintain a small positive pressure.
(4) Avoid vibration and impact.
(5) There is enough space for installation and daily maintenance.
What is the instrument attitude, flow direction and pipe connection of micro gear flowmeter?
The installation position shall be horizontal so that the rotor shaft is parallel to the ground (except for the design of vertical structure rotor shaft). Other models shall be installed horizontally according to the user manual. It is vertically installed on the bypass pipe to prevent debris from falling onto the flowmeter from the pipe.
The actual flow direction must be consistent with the direction indicated by the instrument housing. Volumetric flow meters can only be measured in one direction. If necessary, check valves shall be installed downstream to prevent damage to the instrument. Micro gear flowmeter
Ensure that the flowmeter is not subject to pipeline expansion, contraction, deformation and vibration. Prevent improper vibration of valve and pipeline design, especially avoid resonance. Do not stress the instrument during installation. For example, the two flange planes of the upstream pipeline and the downstream pipeline are not parallel, the distance between the flange faces is too large, and the pipeline is concentric. Especially in the non separated measuring chamber, more attention should be paid to the flowmeter integrating the compression housing and the measuring chamber. Because the large installation stress leads to deformation, which affects the measurement accuracy, and movable measuring elements are embedded.
How can the micro gear flowmeter prevent heterogeneous fluid from entering the instrument?
The interval between the measuring chamber of the gear flowmeter and the movable inspection chamber is very small, and the particle impurities in the fluid affect the normal operation of the instrument, resulting in seizure or premature wear. A filter must be installed upstream of the instrument. And regular cleaning; When measuring gas, if necessary, consider installing protective equipment such as sediment or water absorber. The gas used to measure the liquid pipeline must be prevented from entering the pipeline system, and a gas separator must be set if necessary. Micro gear flowmeter
How can the micro gear flowmeter reduce the risk of pulsating flow, impact flow or overload flow?
Although there are some examples of successful use of the pump suction section, the instrument must be installed at the pump outlet. Pulsating and impinging flow will damage the flowmeter. The ideal oil source is centrifugal pump or high groove. If it is necessary to use reciprocating pumps or places where pipelines are prone to overload impact, hammer impact and other impact flows, buffer tanks, expansion chambers, safety valves and other protective equipment shall be installed. Overload and overspeed operation of flowmeter will cause irreversible danger! If the management system may have excessive overload flow, protection facilities such as restriction orifice, fixed flow valve or flow controller shall be installed downstream.
Micro gear flowmeter emulsification continuous flow installation?
Gear flowmeter has the disadvantage of pipeline blockage after measuring parts are damaged. Therefore, there must be parallel system redundancy of automatic switching equipment where continuous production or cutting is not allowed. In addition, the flow can adopt the common parallel working mode. When one fails, the other can still circulate.


Development of the Water Sector
Only about half of the Kenyan population has access to safe and affordable water and hygienic sanitation facilities. The situation in the densely populated urban slums and informal settlements is even worse. Furthermore, Kenya suffers from a chronic water shortage and the scarce resources are threatened by environmental degradation, pollution and the effects of climate change.
Responding to these challenges, the Kenyan Government initiated far-reaching reforms in the water sector. The Federal Republic of Germany has consistently been a driving force in supporting these reforms and their implementation. Germany is one of the leading donors in the water sector, focussing on water supply and sanitation in medium sized towns and urban informal settlements.
The bilateral programmes aim at improving the access of the urban population, and the urban poor in particular, to clean water and sanitation facilities. Support is also given to the protection and sustainable management of the water resources.
The activities are being implemented on behalf of the German Government through the agencies GTZ, KfW, DED and InWent. The combination of technical advice and financial support helps strengthening the overall sector framework and the capacities of selected institutions, as well as improving the living conditions on the ground. In order to further optimize the cooperation between the agencies, a sector coordinator has been nominated (KfW), serving as contact person for the Kenyan partner institutions and other development partners.
The combined financial volume of the ongoing programmes amounts to approximately 80 Mio EUR.
Thanks to the support by the German Development Cooperation, several hundred thousand people in the towns of Nyeri and Eldoret are already benefitting from improved water supply and sanitation. In the course of 2010, major interventions in six other medium sized towns in Western Kenya will be completed, and more than one million people in urban informal settlements will gain access to safe and affordable water in the coming years.


WASTE WATER TREATMENT SYSTEMS
Municipal or domestic wastewater is that which is generated from households, Hotels, commercial and institutional Facilities in the urbanized areas. WABCO handles a huge spectrum of Municipal Wastewater Treatment plants that vary in their processes and capacities. Domestic wastewater treatment is normally associated with sewage, which is characterized by many components most importantly: BOD and Suspended Solids (SS). WABCO’s Sewage Treatment Plants provide very wide ranges, Capacities and Technologies for their applications requiring aerobic, anaerobic or anoxic treatment processes for BOD, SS, Nitrogen and Phosphorous removal.

Our procurement department insures that all materials and equipment used meets or exceeds the standards set by the customer. On the other hand, our manufacturing personnel are responsible for supplying and installing QC calibrated gauges which are placed to reflect the actual conditions, as well as product and reject flow indicators that are used to monitor & adjust flows in accordance to the design parameters.
There are many different methods of filtration, but all aim to attain the separation of two or more materials. This is achieved by some form of interaction between the substance or objects to be removed and the filter. In addition the substance that is to pass through the filter must be a fluid, i.e. a liquid or gas.
Sand filtration is frequently used and very robust method to remove suspended solids from water. The filtration medium consists of a multiple layer of sand with a variety in size and specific gravity. When the filters are blocked with solids, the flow direction is Reversed ( Backwash ) to clean the filter again.
WABCO provides a wide range of Gravity Sand Filters which are used to remove suspended solids from raw surface water as a final treatment unit before chlorinat0ion. In addition, these filters can be used in wastewater treatment during the final stages and after the biological treatment to provide more polishing to the secondary treatment effluent as tertiary treatment gravity sand filters.
WABCO provides design, manufacturing, supply, and installation services for all types of Gravity Sand Filters such as slow gravity and / or rapid gravity. The filters designed based on the demand required by our clients and the design provided by our Environmental Team.
Pressurized filtration is the most common pretreatment method used in of water treatment. The pressurized filtration requires a filter feed pump(s) and a filter vessel(s). The purpose of pressurized filtration is the removal of suspended solids and other contents of water. The operating pressure ranges from 2.5 – 6.0 bar, the size and constituents of the filter depend on its purpose. Mainly two support layers one a top another followed by another smaller grain size supportive layer as well as an active layer. The active layer may be sand for filtration of suspended solids, birm for removal of iron, carbon for removal of chlorine & odor, anthracite for fine filtration, etc…
The design of the filter vessel requires a case study on the application and varies from one to another.
The Silt Density index should be maintained below 3. Proper periodic backwashing insures longer and better operating regimes

The Erie Canal Port Development Corporation (ECHDC) found a developer for Canalside’s Ode Block. Brooklyn-based Penrose New York Developer LLC teamed up with GSD Urban Solutions and the Westminster Economic Development Initiative to beat out two of his other proposals for the two-acre site. A mix of market priced and affordable apartments is proposed, with two floors of underground parking and commercial and retail space.
Work on the $160 million multi-building project will begin in early 2025 and is expected to be completed in two years. The plan calls for 367 homes, half of which will be limited to affordability. Buildings along the canal are 4-5 storeys high, with 10-14 storeys north along Niagara Thruway I-190.
Penrose has expertise in developing highly complex, mixed-use, environmentally conscious and sustainable luxury residential properties with over 27,000 rental homes and a total development cost of $5 billion. Additionally, Mr. Penrose is focused on building affordable housing and is currently working with the Buffalo City Housing Department on a revitalization effort for Brigadier General Perry less than a mile from the site. These developments meet a myriad of nuanced requirements driven by a tiered residential and commercial program of apartments, offices, theaters, cultural facilities, parking lots and more.
ECHDC published a request for proposals for the location last May, with a September 1 deadline for submissions. According to the RFP document, the development of multiple buildings will be set within the reconstructed historic street pattern, allowing Lloyd Street and Commercial Street to continue on the site. Public access to the grounds continues across the bridge from Main Street, Pearl Street and Lower Terrace. The rebuilt roads will be pedestrian-only and will be open to emergency vehicles in some areas. Vehicle access to the underground car park will be along the Lower Terrace. ECHDC is willing to offer his $10 million to developers for capital construction costs related to historic road sites, public walkways and canal lighting.
The ECHDC Board today voted to designate Penrose as the site’s preferred developer and to begin negotiations on a sales and development agreement.


Helping create power from the waves and sea
We are all aware of the acute importance of bringing innovative and commercial new sources of renewable energy onstream quickly. Tidal energy’s time has come. It is ideally suited to the UK’s unique island geography, which has half of Europe’s tidal stream potential (RenewableUK data).
Harnessing energy from the tides has been happening for centuries in traditional tidal mills reliant on large barrages. The technology for generating commercial scale renewable electricity is much more recent.
Tidal turbines operate like underwater windmills but are driven by the power of consistent, fast-moving marine currents. Tidal power avoids many of the issues of other forms of renewable generation: it is completely predictable; the turbines have no visual impact; they have a very low impact on marine life; and they can operate in harmony with recreational or commercial sailing vessels.
“This is the most exciting time in the history of tidal power. The ocean offers huge potential for generating clean, environmentally benign, highly predictable power across the world.”Tim Cornelius, CEO, Atlantis Resources Ltd
The UK is a growing global centre for tidal energy expertise, and Abundance is proud to be backing some of the innovative pioneers working to deliver commercially successful tidal energy projects. Their work is proving that as costs continue to fall, tidal power can make a significant contribution to energy generation portfolios around the world.
Atlantis is a world leader in tidal energy, having developed the flagship tidal project, MeyGen, off the coast of Scotland: the world’s first multi-megawatt, multi-turbine tidal power project. Our customers have funded three different investments from Atlantis to help them progress not only Meygen, but other tidal opportunities in the UK and Europe.
Orbital Marine Power (Orkney) has developed an innovative design for the world’s most powerful floating tidal stream turbine, the O2. Simpler to install and maintain, keeping costs and downtime low, floating systems can be deployed over a wide range of tidal sites. In 2018, 2,400 of our customers invested to help Orbital build its most powerful commercial demonstrator model O2 turbine, designed for global rollout.
“Floating tidal can be the springboard for a new, sustainable industry — one that comes from an idea conceived in Orkney, engineered in Scotland and delivered across a UK supply chain, with the ability to change the world in a better wayAndrew Scott, CEO, Orbital Marine Power

The beginning of construction of a high-speed railway
On December 21, 2017, in the presence of the Prime Minister of Thailand, Mr. Prayut Chan-o-cha, a solemn ceremony was held to commence the construction of the high-speed railway project between Bangkok and Nakhon Ratchasima. The ceremony took place in a historical location in the Tambon Klangdong in Nakhon Ratchasima province, where over a century ago King Rama V initiated the construction of the country's first north-eastern railway. The total length of the high-speed railway is 252 kilometers. This project will be implemented in cooperation with China, representatives of the Chinese government also attended the ceremony. The total cost of the project is 179 billion. Bath.
According to the Minister of Transport Mr. Arkhom Termpittay-apaisith, construction will be completed by the end of 2018.
This project will be a one-stage high-speed rail system Bangkok-Nong Khai, which will connect Thailand with Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam, as well as with China and India in subsequent phases. Thus, with the implementation of this project, Thailand will become a transport and logistics hub for the ASEAN and South-East Asia region.

When your roof shows signs of wear and damage, you may find yourself facing a critical decision: should you opt for a roof repair or a complete replacement? Making the right choice is crucial to ensure the long-term protection and structural integrity of your home. In this informative article, we will explore the factors to consider when deciding between roof repair and replacement, helping you make an informed decision.
1. Assessing the Extent of Damage
The first step in determining whether your roofer requires repair or replacement is assessing the extent of the damage. Minor issues such as a few missing shingles, small leaks, or isolated damage may be candidates for repair. On the other hand, if the damage is widespread, severe, or compromises the structural integrity of the roof, replacement may be necessary. Engage a professional roofer to conduct a thorough inspection and provide an accurate assessment.
2. Age of the Roof
Consider the age of your roof when deciding between repair and replacement. Most roofs have a lifespan of 20 to 25 years, depending on the materials used. If your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan and experiencing significant issues, such as frequent leaks or widespread damage, it may be more cost-effective in the long run to opt for a full replacement rather than investing in continuous repairs.
3. Cost Considerations
Cost is a significant factor in the decision-making process. While repairs are generally less expensive than a full replacement, it’s important to weigh the costs against the long-term benefits. If your roof requires frequent repairs or the overall cost of repairs approaches the cost of replacement, it may be more cost-effective and practical to invest in a new roof. Additionally, consider the potential energy savings and increased home value that come with a new roof.
4. Future Maintenance and Repairs
When deciding between repair and replacement, consider the future maintenance and repair needs of your roof. If your roof is older and showing signs of multiple issues, continual repairs may become a recurring expense. A replacement roof provides an opportunity to start fresh with a new, durable system that requires minimal maintenance. It’s essential to factor in the long-term maintenance and repair costs associated with your decision.
5. Energy Efficiency and Insulation
Roof replacement allows for the installation of new, energy-efficient materials that can enhance the insulation and energy efficiency of your home. Older roofs may lack proper insulation, leading to energy loss and increased utility bills. By opting for a replacement, you can choose materials that provide better insulation and reduce heat transfer, improving the overall energy efficiency of your home.
6. Aesthetics and Home Value
Consider the aesthetics and overall value of your home when making the decision. A new roof can significantly enhance the curb appeal of your property, adding value and increasing its marketability. If your current roof is outdated or visually unappealing, a replacement can transform the look of your home and make it more attractive to potential buyers if you plan to sell in the future.
7. Time and Disruption
Evaluate the time and disruption associated with repair and replacement projects. Roof repairs are typically quicker to complete, causing minimal disruption to your daily routine. However, keep in mind that frequent repairs may result in ongoing disruptions. A roof replacement, although more time-consuming, provides a comprehensive solution that can give you peace of mind and eliminate the need for future repairs in the near term.
8. Professional Guidance
Seek professional guidance from experienced roofers when making the decision. They can provide valuable insights based on their expertise and experience. A trusted roofer will assess the condition of your roof, discuss the available options, and help you make an informed choice that aligns with your specific needs and budget.
In conclusion, the decision between roof repair and replacement depends on various factors, including the extent of damage, age of the roof, cost considerations, energy efficiency, aesthetics, and future maintenance needs. Consulting with a professional roofer will provide you with the necessary guidance to make an informed decision that ensures the long-term protection and value of your home.

Unitech System is the number one leading company in the temporary seating system filed in domestic market. Unitech system also had supplied their systems to the main stadium, speed skating stadium and figure skating stadium for Winter Olympic games in Pyeongchang last year. The advantage of Unitech’s seating system is to save its huge construction cost and maintenance budget reduction.
The installation of a permanent facility not only increases construction costs but also makes it difficult for maintenance afterwards. On the other hand, in case of the temporary seating system, without to construct the new stadium separately and any extension a building, can obtain the seating capacity. Thus, this system has been being used for the big events since 2010s.
“Many clients will look for Unitech’s temporary seating system for various big events in the future.” and “We, Unitech is going to give our best to export the systems since starting to win the contract of FIFA Worldcup Al Rayyan stadium which is constructing in Doha.” Unitech System CEO, Mr James Ham said.

The design studies and the tools have been developed to compare various structural models based on composite systems of concrete in combination with Mass engineered Timber (MET), such as Cross Laminated Timber (CLT) and Glue Laminated Timber (Glulam). The aim is to promote timber as a renewable and sustainable material for residential construction in Southeast Asia (SEA) – a region with massive urban construction in close proximity to vast forest resources. The design utilises the ease of adaptability and relative light weight of timber and applies them as infill elements to achieve flexible floor plans.
Moreover, with connections that are more easily reversible than concrete joints, timber-based elements cater modularity in the assembly process and enable circular design strategies and design for disassembly, helping to reduce their Global Warming Potential (GWP).
A circularity assessment method that builds upon the design-based life cycle assessment (LCA) tool has been developed to quantify the environmental potential of circularity, based on capturing the impacts of recycled materials and tracking the re-use of modules during a building’s service lifetime – by correlating predictive demographic models on changing occupation demand patterns with re-used partition modules that would accommodate these changes.

The Lynchburg and Salem Turnpike Co. was incorporated in 1818 to build a turnpike from Lynchburg west to Salem. The road reached Liberty (now Bedford) in 1828 and was completed to Salem in 1836. In Bedford County, covered bridges spanned the Big Otter and Little Otter rivers. The latter bridge remained until 1947. This turnpike, with five tollgates, served as the main thoroughfare in the region until the Virginia & Tennessee Railroad was built in the 1850s. In 1854, the company abandoned responsibility for the road between New London and Liberty and the county took control.

Located at the north end of Seattle’s Eastlake neighborhood near the I-5 bridge, this 103-unit apartment building is designed to respond to a variety of site constraints. The project includes a hill-climb stair that will navigate the steep slope of the adjacent unimproved right-of-way, creating a pedestrian connection between the Eastlake commercial corridor down to a pocket park on Lake Union. Bioretention planters treating runoff from the I5 bridge are integrated with the stair design, pursuing Salmon Safe development standards and setting precedent for green storm-water infrastructure. The project seeks to create a continuous active street edge along Fairview Ave E with recessed stoops and a public plaza near the building entry and stair. Building form is designed to reduce the perceived size of the building by breaking up the massing with a language of recessed and projecting volumes, creating visual interest and depth in addition to integrated balconies to enjoy the lake views to the west.


I am working with the Water Resources Policy and Management area on sustainable and efficient management of water and waste water resources. I am part of the team working on water energy food nexus. I received the Australia Awards: Certificate in Strengthening Water Security and Cooperation in South Asia: Integrated Water Resources Management, 2018. I have been building relationships with the participants from India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Australia and New Zealand.
I am working on a multipartner (EU and India) Horizon 2020 project “PAVITRAGANGA” that focuses on tackling waste water management issues in urban areas on the Yamuna (New Delhi) and Ganga (Kanpur). Under this project I am responsible for the policy research and recommendation for the communication plan and execution. I am also leading the development of a training program for the Ministry of Home Affairs to provide training to personnel of Central Armed PoliceForces (CAPFs) on water conservation, including rain water harvesting techniques and recharge. I have been working on research for the sustainable development of the Himalayan Region and impact of climate on Himalayan cryosphere in my capacity as a Glaciologist and climate change expert.

Whoops. There was a problem previewing (ARORA) SOIL MECHANICS AND FOUNDATION Retrying. Stress Distribution in Soils due to Surface Loads that IB has a maximum value of at r/z = 0, i.e., indicating thereby that the stress is a maximum below the point load.
WESTERGAARD'S FORMULA FOR POINT LOADS Boussinesq assumed that the soil is elastic, isotropic and homogeneous for the development of aFile Size: 1MB.The effective stress equation of saturated soils and unsaturated soils is unified, i.e., o˜=o˜t –Seuw– (1 –Se)ua. For multiphase porous medium, o˜=o˜t –u*, u*=Seiui (i= 1,2,M).
In this book, a theoretical formula of the coefficient of permeability for unsaturated soils is derived.Terzaghi’s theory of bearing capacity assumes that the groundwater table is at a great depth below the base of the foundation and hence its effect is not considered.
When the groundwater table is near the level of the foundation, the unit weight of soil gets reduced. The effective or submerged unit weight of the soil shall be, therefore, used.
