Kendal on Hudson's continuing care retirement community offers residents easy living and breathtaking views from every part of the facility. With almost 5,000 Simonton windows to capture the scenery of the Hudson River Valley from every angle, the window selection was an important decision during the construction process.
"This complex receives direct exposure from the sun on all sides throughout the year," says Robert Nalaboff, project manager for Andron Construction Corporation, the general contractor for the project. "During the winter, harsh winds and frigid weather can infiltrate this part of the country. With so many openings it was important to install windows that are both energy efficient and easy to maintain.
Simonton ProFinish Casement and No-Hinge Casement windows were installed by Nalaboff's team during construction of the 222-unit complex. Almost a thousand mulled window units bring light into every room of the Kendal on Hudson complex.
"The double glazed Simonton windows with Argon gas fill and sturdy vinyl frames are the perfect complement to this low maintenance community," says Nalaboff.

The Minister of Transportation Rotimi Amaechi has apologised to Nigerians for the breakdown on the Abuja-Kaduna rail locomotives which occurred between November 18 and November 20.
The minister made the plea on Monday at the Moniya rail station during the routine inspection of Ibadan rail Project.
“I want to apologise to Nigerians over what happened at the Abuja-Kaduna rail station.
“We now have new locomotives and we have called the Chinese because we never expected the mechanical fault at this early stage.
“On behalf of the Federal Government, the ministry and the Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC), we apologise to Nigerians and I have instructed the NRC to fix it or invite the Chinese.
“If this is happening now, then they should bring back our old locomotives, it will just affect turnaround times because we get the new locomotive to increase the turnaround time,” he said.
Amaechi called for an increase in the pace of work by the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) adding that Covid-19 pandemic was no longer an excuse.
The minister said although the CCECC were doing well, they need to increase their pace to enable the ministry to deliver the project on schedule.
The Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Transportation, Mrs Madeleine Ajani, said the establishment of the Standard gauge railway would also decongest both the road transportation and movement of cargo from the ports while people living in Ibadan could come and work in Lagos on a daily basis
The Managing Director, Nigeria Railway Corporation, Mr Fidet Okhiria, said there was an improvement in the construction output by the contractors adding ”hopefully by December some of the stations would be completed’’.
“We also need to have more stations so that passengers will not need to wait for the train to leave Ebute-Meta Station before getting to Agege station which means that the two trains can be in a section.
“This can be done with the help of signal and communication hence train should be able to communicate with train as well as station should be able to communicate with station simultaneously.
“The delay in the rail construction along Apapa ports corridors is due to the Oando pipeline along Apapa corridor,” Okhiria said.
He disclosed that the train would start operating from Lagos to Moniya in Ibadan by Dec. 7.

Much of SA’s water infrastructure is badly mismanaged or in need of upgrading, and the country is a water-scarce one generally. Three recent events should be a warning to us that the situation drastically needs attention.
- Large parts of Joburg will experience planned water cuts this weekend as Rand Water, which services the city, repairs faulty valves underground.
- The department of human settlements, water and sanitation will take over water infrastructure in Emfuleni in Gauteng, following a report by the South African Human Rights Commission that found that raw sewage flowing from the broken-down water works into the Vaal River under the Municipality’s watch, is a health risk to people and the environment.
- Last week, residents of Koster and Swartruggens were allowed to take control of their towns’ water works.
As News24 reports, the North West High Court ruled that the municipalities concerned had breached their constitutional duty to provide water to the towns. That’s because the water purifying works are “in states of disrepair and are mismanaged”. Residents were able to get things back on track within days. It sets an incredible precedent.
Late last year Water and Sanitation Minister Lindiwe Sisulu launched her Master Plan. It revealed solutions but also the extent of the problems. As Mail & Guardian’s acting editor, Sipho Kings, noted, SA’s infrastructure isn’t sufficient for our growing population. Kings wrote that the country has nobly spent enough money to supply 95% of the population with water… but a third of the infrastructure doesn’t work.
Add to this a vast country where water must be transported from dams across thousands of kilometres to big cities, and a warming climate causing unforeseen droughts, and you’ve got a problem.
Government is acutely aware of the myriad problems. Besides the master plan, twelve large water infrastructure projects were gazetted last year. They now need to tackle the problems of mismanagement, corruption and a skills shortage. Or be embarrassed when citizens like those in Koster and Swartruggens successfully take matters into their own hands.
Saving water should also become a huge priority for us, especially those living in the big cities. We’re a water scarce country. We need to start acting like it.

Cities to become smart with GIS technology
There has been lot of buzz around the smart city concept,one of the Government’s prime development plans. 100 cities have been earmarked for such growth centers where people, environment and technology will work together. In fact, the Government went even further to announce fast track smart city plan competitions, in which 20 cities were selected for the first development.Around Rs.50,000 Cr has been allocated for the development in such cities.
In the purview of this initiative,many multinationals have pledged a funding of $35 billion during the Make in India mega event held in Mumbai, in order to support themagnanimous mission.
So what is a ‘Smart City’?
There have been many definitions of a smart city. However a smart city can be said to encompass characteristics such as sustainability, high economic development and most importantly, a high quality of life.
The Government’s Smart City Plan
The Government has enabled four pillars of infrastructure – institutional, physical,social and economic – for economic development. To enable the radical development of cities, a 20-year road map has been drawn up to achieve strategic benefit to each city. A lot of focus has also been put on involving ideas from the people of these cities.The efficient use of fuel, extensive use of ICT (Information and Communication Technology) and GIS (Geographical Information System) will reduce carbon emission and lead to a sustainable and energy efficient ecosystem.
The use of GIS technology
ESRI is one such organisation which has been commissioned for the extensive use of GIS technology. GIS interface is an important tool used to map the different layers of a geographical region, to understand and zone the areas for future development. It has a number of advantageous uses, listed below:
1. The use of GIS will help the Government map the exact requirements of a particular physical infrastructure and figure out where land use needs to be planned. The possibilities are endless with this app.
2. It could also help locate different income groups, which would form the basis for planning affordable housing.
3. Applications such as Traffic Management Systems, made sustainable with the use of solar panels, would enable optimum usage of electricity. An Advanced Traffic Management System embedded in GIS would help in studying the traffic islands across different areas and help in creating a robust and efficient transport system.
4. Another alternative use of GIS would be locating biological patterns such as the growth of algae and cultivating it for bio fuel, such as Algae Fuel, which would reduce the usage of petrol in the distant future.
5. Predictions of housing demand can be analyzed using 3D demographic mapping and decadal population shift patterns. GIS Platform is already popular in developed nations in cities such as San Diego in the US, which has been planned with an extensive use of GIS.
6. The application can also help in energy usage – GUI, when installed in electric meter devices, would enable the user to understand the usage. This would be connected to the energy supply companies, which would monitor the supply and arrest the loss of electricity,thereby ensuring efficiency.
7. Such is the multifaceted use of GIS, that it could also help locate underlying potential for ONG pits. More importantly also identify potential risks of natural calamities or disease prone areas and help position the development accordingly.
This phenomenon is setting the stage for a new India and eventually the community will be empowered with the efficient use of this untapped potential. Smart Homes will mean a smart environment and of, course smart people. As such cities develop, they will also generate a lot of relevant insights into the real estate market, which will have a renewed future in the field of GIS enabled planned cities.


MEAM 5620: Water Treatment Engineering
To be offered Spring 2024
Globally, 2 billion people lack access to clean, safe water that is vital for drinking, sanitation, and agriculture. Climate change coupled with contamination of existing water supplies have exacerbated water scarcity, making technologies to remediate, reuse, and desalinate water more critical than ever. This course will cover the fundamental principles of water treatment engineering and examine how it can be applied to ensure access to safe and clean water, mitigate waterborne diseases, protect the environment, and support sustainable development.
Water treatment engineering is the application of scientific and engineering principles to design, develop, and implement processes and technologies to purify and manage water resources for specific quality and safety standards. We will explore a wide range of water engineering technologies used in drinking water treatment, wastewater remediation, resource recovery, and desalination. Fundamental principles and advanced concepts governing water treatment systems will be introduced with a particular focus on the application of fundamental engineering sciences including thermodynamics, mass transport, and fluid dynamics to examine the efficiency of treatment and utilization of energy/emissions required for treatment. In addition to the engineering and scientific aspects of water treatment, this course will also place emphasis on the important humanitarian and economic aspects of water engineering and discuss global issues on water quality, scarcity, and environmental justice.


Signal Reconstruction at Seminary Road/Janneys Lane and Quaker Lane
Over the Spring and Summer 2020, the traffic signal at the intersection of Seminary Road and Quaker Lane will be rebuilt to upgrade the hardware from the existing overhead wire to mast arm poles like the image below. Signal upgrades of this sort occur regularly across the city as part of the traffic signal maintenance program and are constructed in place as funding becomes available in each year's budget.
This signal work will occur in two phases, each lasting approximately a month. The first phase, beginning the week of April 20, 2020, will include preparations of the site and laying the foundations for the new poles and other hardware. This work is anticipated to take about a month to complete. The second phase is anticipated to begin in July 2020 and be completed by the end of the month. This phase will include installing the traffic poles and new versions of signal hardware along with routine upgrades associated with the signal reconstruction. Please be advised during construction, there may be necessary temporary lane closures so that workers can install the necessary hardware.
Finalizing the Design
Now that the temperatures are warm enough, a few final markings from the Design Plans are planned for installation as the availability of contractors allows. While the City’s priority right now is providing essential services, there are opportunities for our contractors to complete some small tasks around the City that they were not able to complete in the Fall.
As of December 2019, the Seminary Road project was substantially complete. On February 11, 2020 staff from the Department of Transportation & Environmental Services, the Police Department and the Fire Department provided an update to City Council and answered questions asked by Council. The Council presentation can be viewed here. Key highlights include an overview of preliminary travel times which showed that across the day, travel times were relatively consistent in the before and after periods but that during the peak half hours of the morning and evening, travel times have increased by approximately 1 minute and 30 seconds, respectively. The presentation outlined the project costs, crashes, and the timeline for full evaluation. Staff answered question regarding emergency vehicle access and the crash history along the corridor.
Staff will keep the project website up to date with information, where possible, and will continue to keep the community updated through social media. Staff appreciates the community’s patience as we complete this project. The design is shown as concept plans and final design plans here.

- Monitor traffic with real-time data here from our Smart Mobility Program
On October 14 (weather permitting), the City of Alexandria, through its Public Works Services Division, will begin milling and resurfacing Seminary Road from North Quaker Lane to Library Lane. The Seminary repaving work will implement design changes to Seminary Road that were approved by City Council in September 2019.
Seminary Road Project
The Seminary Road Complete Streets project has worked with the community and stakeholders to determine roadway improvements for Seminary Road, from Quaker Lane to Kenmore Avenue, and at North Howard Street, where staff was awarded grant funding to improve pedestrian safety and accessibility. At the March 25, 2019 meeting, Staff showed that the project area was reduced to N Howard Street to N Quaker Lane.
Seminary Road was identified in the
Pedestrian and Bicycle Chapter of the
Transportation Master Plan for potential improvements to ensure the safety, mobility, and accessibility for all roadway users. Data analysis conducted through the
Vision Zero Action Plan also showed that Seminary Road was a corridor with a high number of KSI (killed or seriously injured) crashes.
Since the reduction of the speed limit on Seminary (from Quaker to Library Lanes) in 2016, data has shown that safety has improved. However, to sustain this benefit, the roadway design must reflect the posted speed limit as well as encourage and better accommodate people walking, biking, driving, and riding transit.
Project Goals and Objectives
The goals of the Seminary Road Complete Streets project are to:
- Improve safety and accessibility for all users
- Improve facilities for people who walk, bike, ride transit or drive cars
- Implement previously adopted plans, policies, and study recommendations
- Eliminate serious injuries and fatalities on the corridor
- Improve safety and accessibility for all roadway users by upgrading curb ramps and sidewalks
- Provide continuous, safe, and comfortable places for people to walk
- Introduce safer pedestrian crossings for residents, transit users, and all others walking the corridor
- Where excess roadway capacity exists, identify ways to meet the goals set forth in the Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan, Vision Zero Plan, Transportation Master Plan, Environmental Action Plan, and the Central Alexandria Traffic Study
- Serve vehicle traffic with a roadway design that minimizes delay at intersections, and encourages speed limit compliance.
SCHEDULE AND PROCESS
The project has followed the process below:
Phase 1 - Spring/Summer 2018 - Information gathering and data analysis
- City staff will gather feedback from the community regarding their concerns with Seminary Road through:
- Complete Streets Repaving Feedback -- Click here
- Community Walkabout -- Saturday, May 12, 2018 at 12 p.m. (noon). Separate groups will meet at Seminary and N. Jordan, and at Seminary and N. Quaker. The two groups will walk along Seminary Road, stopping at intersections along the way, and meeting at St Stephens Road at approximately 12:45 p.m.
- Community open house meeting -- Tuesday, May 29th, 2018 5:30 - 7:30pm, Beth El Hebrew Congregation, 3830 Seminary Road. Brief presentation at 6 p.m. followed by a 15-minute question and answer session. Posters that were displayed at this meeting are posted here (7MB pdf)
- Comment summary as a result of all outreach to date is available here:
Phase 2 - SUMMER 2018 - CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
City staff will continue to take the comments received and develop design concepts or a list of improvements to be further discussed with the community.
Phase 2 - SPRING 2019 - COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT ON ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS
Public Meeting on Seminary Road Complete Streets Project held on Monday, March 25, 2019
The Seminary Road project was postponed last fall due to an announcement from the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) regarding potential operational changes to the existing I-395 high-occupancy vehicle-only (HOV) exit ramp to Seminary Road. However, due to the poor pavement condition on Seminary Road, the project can no longer be delayed—Seminary Road is scheduled to be repaved in September 2019. While significant traffic impacts are not expected from operational changes to the exit ramp, staff will move forward with the primary goal of making improvements to Seminary Road between N. Quaker Lane and N. Howard St.
Three alternative options were developed after reviewing public comments and concerns from previous engagement efforts as well as those that have been a part of this project process. The three alternatives, as well as supporting background information, can be viewed below.

Comment Summary of Staff Recommendation
Summer 2019 - September 2019- Repave the Roadway
The staff recommendation was presented to the Traffic and Parking Board on June 24, 2019.
After plans are finalized for the roadway, the road will be repaved in September and the plans will be implemented.
TRAFFIC AND PARKING BOARD
The Traffic and Parking Board meeting docket item was posted at the link for the June 24, 2019 meeting.
The Traffic and Parking Board's recommendation to the T&ES Director was to maintain four vehicle travel lanes (two in each direction) and establish two HAWK (Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon) Crossings. One at Gaillard/Chapel Hill Bus Stop pair and another to be determined between St. Stephen's Road and Ft. Williams Parkway.
The Director has waived the appeals process and the Traffic and Parking Board's recommendation will be presented directly to City Council in September.
CITY COUNCIL DECISION
On Saturday September 14, 2019, Alexandria City Council, in a 4-3 vote, adopted Alternative 3 for the design of Seminary Road between N. Howard Street and N. Quaker Lane. Watch the Video here or listen to the Audio here
As staff is working on the design with an inter-agency group that includes the Fire Department, the following design features will be implemented:
- Vehicle Travel Lanes: One through-lane in each direction (eastbound and westbound) and a center left turn lane that allows left-turning traffic to wait outside of the travel lane to make their turn. This is shown in the Concept plan for Alternative 3
- Pedestrian and Bicycle Facilities: Bicycle lanes will be installed with the remaining roadway width. In the portion without a sidewalk today, an in-street, shared, protected, bicycle and pedestrian space will be implemented to connect the sidewalk portions that are existing.
- New Crossings: Median islands with flashing beacons will be installed in four new locations, Chapel Hill Drive, Beth El Hebrew Congregation, Ft. Williams Parkway, and near the Seminary Road entrance of Virginia Theological Seminary.
Paving is tentatively scheduled for October 2019. More information will be posted and sent to the community soon to address frequently asked questions that Staff and City Leadership have been receiving. Additional flyers will be sent to residents a week before paving begins as is typical with other paving projects.

Water hammer is a pressure surge or wave caused when a fluid (usually a liquid but sometimes also a gas) in motion is forced to stop or change direction suddenly (momentum change). Water hammer commonly occurs when a valve closes suddenly at an end of a pipeline system, and a pressure wave propagates in the pipe.
This pressure wave can cause major problems, from noise and vibration to pipe collapse. This water hammer arrestor device is designed to prevent the impact that this has on water pipes and also water filters or housings that may also be present on the line.
This device could potentially save you thousands of dollars in damage if you are not at home when leaks in damaged pipes occour and in alot of cases landlords or homeowners/insurance people do not look favourably at houses that have taken no precautionary measures in protecting their home.

OSHA requires a routine maintenance schedule for all heavy equipment. Regardless of how you use telescopic boom lifts, the law mandates that the equipment should be inspected after every 150 hours or for at least every 90 days, depending on how often you use it. Your annual inspection should also not exceed 13 months from the date of your previous check.
To keep your telescopic boom lift in optimal condition, you can count on our experts at Equipment Maintenance Technicians. We are dedicated to providing quality services that ensure work safety and uninterrupted business operations. With our help, you’ll have infallible solutions for long-term aerial lift safety and accessibility.
Signs Your Telescopic Boom Lifts Need Repair
Damaged Hydraulic Lines – Without proper routine maintenance, hydraulic lines can become frayed. Hydraulic lines are damaged by vibrations and other movements caused by a lack of reinforcement. Frayed hydraulic lines can be dangerous for the operator and pedestrians around as it is likely to route improperly. To avoid this, have telescopic boom lifts experts reinforce the lines with protective clamps and brackets in order to secure the lines properly, ensuring worker safety.
Hydraulic Fluid Contamination – Contamination of hydraulic fluids within the hydraulic system poses great danger and aerial lift failure. This occurs when impurities contaminate the hydraulic fluid. For instance, dirt and debris that enters the hydraulic pump can block the system, preventing the flow of essential fluids.
Contamination ruins the fluid’s purity and viscosity, causing metal parts to grind against one another and disabling the engine from functioning properly. To prevent this, make sure to have your telescopic boom lifts regularly inspected after every operation.
Hydraulic Seal Failure – One major cause of aerial lift mechanical malfunctions and system failures involves hydraulic seal breakdown. Since hydraulic seals are usually made of soft rubber material, they may break under excessive hot working conditions, and repeated exposure to impurities and chemicals.
To prevent seal failure, make sure to have your telescopic boom lift seals fortified with heat-resistant protective materials that can withstand even the harshest working conditions.

This week's Good Facility is a pair of bi-directional cycleways alongside a major road in the west of Amsterdam.
Perhaps in the UK this would be a four lane road for motor traffic. Instead in Amsterdam there is just one lane for motor traffic in each direction, separated by grass medians. The cycleways on each side of the road are bi-directional (two-way) meaning people do not have to cross the road to make trips in the 'wrong' direction.
There are multiple crossing points for walking and cycling along this road, at locations where they are required.
This road design is also an excellent example of the application of the homogeneity principle in Sustainable Safety - the movements in different directions, and objects of different mass, are completely separated.

A general contractor plays an important role as someone who coordinates and supervises every aspect of a building or remodeling project. A general contractor oversees the project from start to finish, making sure that each portion of the project is done to the utmost satisfaction. Hiring a general contractor takes away the logistical stress and responsibility to oversee a construction project and is highly recommended.
SUBCONTRACTING AND COMMUNICATIONS
A good general contractor has experience working with quality subcontractors and are known for quality work. In addition, the general contractor will also act as a liaison between the business or homeowner and the subcontractors in order to keep everything on track according to schedule until completion of the project. A good general contractor takes it to the next level by working also the design team, architect, and interior designer to finish out the project.
PROVIDES QUALITY CONTROL
One of the ways that a general contractor provides quality control is by monitoring and overseeing the construction timeline. The completion timeline plays an important role in any project. If a project goes beyond the estimated completion date, there is a good chance of going over budget. While delays cannot be prevented due to the weather, a contractor can work hard to ensure the subcontractors are sticking to the schedule and making up any weather-related delays when possible.
Another way a general contractor provides quality control is by checking the completed work of a project. A general contractor should always be available to routinely check work on the building project. Most general contractors do scheduled and unscheduled checks. Having a general contractor inspect prior to an official building inspection helps to prevent delays in completion and helps corrections or changes be made.
PERMITS AND INSPECTIONS
A very important reason for hiring a commercial contractor is because they understand the ins-and-outs for permits and licenses for commercial building. A contractor is familiar with the permits and licenses that you will need to legally complete your project. In addition, they will schedule inspections as needed and make sure everything passes code. A general contractor will work directly with the city of Fayetteville to schedule all required inspections and make sure the project stays on schedule while also staying to code.
You can expect Commercial Building Inc. to deliver a local construction contractor experience that suits your business. We are available for all your commercial upfit and renovation needs. We offer services in Fayetteville, Pinehurst, Lumberton, Sanford, and many other cities in North Carolina. Call us today for more information at 910-818-6811. We look forward to working with you!

Ceramic tiles as the name suggest are made up of clay, though with continuous innovation and technological breakthrough more elements are added to make it more reliable and durable. Glaze is applied in the surface which helps not only protect the ceramic body but also helps in experimenting with wide variety of colour & applications.
Vitrified tiles are very similar to ceramic tiles but with very low porosity and works as perfect alternative to granite, stone & marbles. These tiles are manufactured with clay been mixed with quartz feldspar and silica before heated in the kiln. These extra ingredients melt, creating a glass element making it very hard and resistant to any type of absorption.
Double charge is a vitrified tiles two colours on the tiles bisque are press feed and makes a thick layer of design on top of it (tiles are passed through a press that prints the pattern with a double layer of pigment). So such design layer becomes 3 to 4 mm thicker. This makes double charge vitrified tiles ideal choice for heavy traffic commercial projects. Single charged tiles are nothing but basic vitrified tiles with a 1mm glazing at the top(Just before the tiles are fired upon, liquid colour screen printing is done on them. Soluble salts are added to the colour, which form different patterns, shapes and designs).
Nano polished vitrified tiles: If we apply a layer of liquid silica on vitrified tiles then it fills the micro (nano) pores on the tiles surface and makes it smoother in feel. This type of tiles is called nano polished vitrified tiles. Nowadays most of the factories offer nano polishing for soluble salt tiles so fewer pores are visible and tiles looks more shiny & smooth.
Grout plays important part in placing your favourite tiles. Grout has it's functionality defined according to usage and economy. It also helps adding to overall ambience. Basically Grout are to types Cementitious Powder mix or Cement based grout and Epoxy resin based grout. Both are available in various colors and shades. Epoxy grout is extremely durable and almost completely stain-proof. Regular cement based grout isn't waterproof, so unlike epoxy grout, it can absorb water when it's wet and stain easily.
Build Mart provides all available textures available in Indian and International markets, some of the textures are mentioned below.
Length times width of the area to be covered will give you square footage. For most installations, add 5-7% for cutting loss, and enough to keep on hand for any repairs. When the installation is on a diagonal, or when you are using a multi-size pattern, you should add 12-15%.
Water traps can be either P type (outlet into the wall) or S type (outlet into the floor).
From the maintenance point of view, there is no difference between the two. From installation point of view, P trap would normally be used in upper floors where the waste pipe is outside the wall. However these can also be used on ground floors if the pipeline for waste is on an outside wall.
S Trap requires a pipeline to run below floor level and is therefore used on the ground floor or on upper floors if the roof slabs are made deep enough.
It delivers a high water flow even in low water pressure condition. It can be used on the top floor of the building where we always get less water pressure.
This one’s up to you, and with a bit of research, you can decide what’s right for you. While a single-handle faucet offers convenient control of water volume and temperature, double-handle faucets offer additional styles and spout designs.

Frozen Condensate Guidance for Installer
During recent winters the UK has experienced prolonged spells of extremely cold weather - down to minus 20oC and below in many areas. This resulted in a significant increase in the number of calls to boiler manufacturers and heating engineers from householders with condensing (high efficiency) boilers where the condensate drainage pipe had frozen and become blocked with ice, causing the boiler to shut down. In the vast majority of cases such problems occur where the condensate drainage pipe is located externally to the building for some part of its length.
British Standards, Building Regulations etc. currently allow condensate drainage pipes to be run either internally or externally, or a combination of these. These documents give guidance on how to install the pipes in order to reduce the possibility of freezing. However this guidance may not be sufficient to prevent freezing in extreme conditions - with widespread and prolonged very low temperatures.
In view of the possibility that UK weather patterns will show more “extremes” in future due to the effects of global climate change, the following guidance updates previous recommendations on condensate drainage pipe installation. All other technical requirements for condensate drain installation given in British Standard BS 6798:2009, or in boiler manufacturers’ installation instructions should still be followed.
2. REVISED GUIDANCE ON CONDENSATE DRAINAGE PIPE INSTALLATION
Where a new or replacement boiler is being installed, access to an internal “gravity discharge” termination should be one of the main factors considered when determining potential boiler locations, so that the condensate drainage pipe can be terminated as recommended below. On an existing installation, the guidance below should also be followed if work is carried out to “upgrade” the condensate drainage system to reduce the risk of freezing in extreme conditions.
Internal condensate drainage pipework must be a minimum of 19mm ID (typically 22mm OD) plastic pipe and this should “fall” at least 45mm per metre away from the boiler, taking the shortest practicable route to the termination point.
In order to minimise the risk of freezing during prolonged very cold spells, one of the following methods of terminating condensate drainage pipe should be adopted -
2.1 INTERNAL TERMINATION:
Wherever possible, the condensate drainage pipe should be terminated at a suitable internal foul water discharge point such as (a) an internal soil and vent stack or (b) an internal kitchen or bathroom waste pipe, washing machine waste pipe etc. A suitable permanent connection to the foul waste pipe should be used. Figures 1, 2(a), 2(b) show appropriate connection methods.
The possibility of waste pipes freezing downstream of the connection point should be considered when determining a suitable connection point - e.g. a slightly longer pipe run to an internal soil stack may be preferable to a shorter run connecting into a kitchen waste pipe discharging directly through the wall to an external drain.
Where “gravity discharge” to an internal termination is not physically possible (e.g. the discharge point is above the appliance location, or access is obstructed by a doorway), or where very long internal pipe runs would be required to reach a suitable discharge point, the following measures may be adopted -
2.2 USE OF A CONDENSATE PUMP (TO AN INTERNAL TERMINATION):
Condensate can be removed using a proprietary condensate pump, of a specification recommended by the boiler or pump manufacturer.
The pump outlet should discharge to a suitable internal foul water discharge point, such as (a) an internal soil and vent stack or (b) an internal kitchen or bathroom waste pipe, washing machine waste pipe etc. Figure 3 shows a typical connection method.
A suitable permanent connection to the foul waste pipe should be used and the manufacturer’s detailed installation instructions for the pump should be followed.
2.3 EXTERNAL TERMINATION:
The use of an externally-run condensate drainage pipe, terminating at a suitable foul water discharge point or purpose-designed soakaway, may be also be considered; however if this termination method is chosen then the following measures should be adopted -
- The pipe should be run internally as far as possible before going externally and the pipe diameter should be increased to a minimum of 30mm ID (typically 32mm OD) before it passes through the wall.
- The external run should be kept as short as possible, taking the most direct and “most vertical” route possible to the discharge point, with no horizontal sections in which condensate might collect.
- The external pipe should be insulated using suitable waterproof and weatherproof insulation (“Class O” pipe insulation is suitable for this purpose) .
- The use of fittings, elbows etc should be kept to a minimum and any internal “burrs” on cut pipework should be removed so that the internal pipe section is as smooth as possible.
The customer/householder should be advised that even with the above measures this type of installation could freeze, and that if this were to occur then boiler shutdown could result, requiring remedial action - possibly involving a chargeable engineer call-out.
Where there are likely to be extremes of temperature or wind-chill, the use of a proprietary trace-heating system for external condensate drainage pipework, incorporating an external frost thermostat, should therefore be considered. If such a system is used then the installation instructions of the trace heating manufacturer and any specific recommendations regarding pipe diameter, insulation, etc. should be followed. All other relevant guidance on condensate drainage pipe installation should also be followed.
Other cold weather protection methods approved or endorsed by boiler manufacturers and/or service organisations may be adopted if these are considered suitable by the parties involved.
If an external soil/vent stack is used as the external termination then the connection method shown in Figure 4 should be used, together with the measures on insulation etc. as described above and shown in the diagram.
When a rain water downpipe is used as the termination (NB only permissible if this downpipe passes to a combined foul and rainwater drainage system) an air break must be installed between the condensate drainage pipe and the downpipe to avoid reverse flow of rainwater into the boiler should the downpipe itself become flooded or frozen. Figure 5 shows a suitable connection method.
Where the condensate drainage pipe is terminated over an open foul drain or gully, the pipe should terminate below the grating level, but above water level, in order to minimise “wind chill” at the open end. Pipe drainage will be improved if the end is cut at 45o as opposed to a straight cut. The use of a drain cover (such as those used to prevent blockage by leaves) may offer further protection from wind chill. Figure 6 shows a suitable connection method.
Where the condensate drain pipe terminates in a purpose-designed soakaway (see BS 6798:2009 or boiler installation manual for soakaway design requirements) any above-ground section of condensate drainage pipe should be run and insulated as described above. Figure 7 shows a suitable connection method.
3. UNHEATED INTERNAL AREAS:
Internal condensate drainage pipes run in unheated areas such as lofts, basements and garages should be treated as external pipe.
The Benchmark Commissioning Checklist should be completed as required to record details of the condensate drainage pipe installation.
Where an external condensate drainage pipe is installed, the customer should be made aware of the risks and consequences of its freezing and offered the option to fit trace heating (or other measures approved by the boiler manufacturer or service organisation).
Separate guidance will be issued for householders on remedial actions which can be taken if a condensate drainage pipe freezes. This may result in requests for alteration to condensate drainage pipework, in which case the guidance above should be followed.


How do interior rail and railing design matters for interior design?
As interior designers, it’s important to understand the importance of the materials, methods, and techniques involved in interior rail construction.
Here are the five things you need know before deciding on interior rail or railing design.1.
What are the materials and methods involved in construction of interior rail?
Interior rail is a rail that runs along a floor and connects a roof to the interior of the home.
The materials involved in constructing the rail are different depending on the type of rail: tile, concrete, or wood.
Tile, for example, is typically composed of concrete, sand, and wood chips.
In contrast, wood railings are generally constructed from lightweight, flexible, and non-combustible material that is easily cut, stapled, and stitched into the exterior.2.
What’s the benefit of interior railing?
Interior railing helps minimize the risk of structural damage to the house.
Interior railing is also known as interior floodwall, interior stairway, and interior stairways, and is a common feature on homes that have been retrofitted.3.
What types of interior rails are there?
There are two main types of home railings: tile and concrete.
Tile is typically constructed from solid materials like limestone, clay, or marble.
The purpose of interior tile railings is to help reduce the risk for structural damage, and the material is often used to help stabilize the roof and roof deck when they are constructed.
Concrete, on the other hand, is constructed of stone, marble, or brick, and can be mixed to create different types of floor and wall materials.4.
What materials are used for interior rail designs?
There is no set standard for interior tile and exterior stairways; the types of materials used vary widely across different countries.
Some designs include both tile and floor, while others include only floor or wall railings.
Other materials include a combination of materials.
For example, concrete tile or brick tile are often used for exterior stairway railings because they are lightweight and are generally easier to work with.5.
What type of roof does an interior rail require?
Interior roofing is an optional feature of homes that are retrofitted or retrofitted with a new roof or deck.
When retrofitted, the home should have roof decks, or windows, or other exterior features.
To help minimize the likelihood of structural injury to the home, it is recommended that the roof be at least three feet above the existing decking.
In addition, roof deckings should be constructed so that they are not in contact with the roof or roof deck.
The type of decking that is used is up to the homeowner.6.
What is the purpose of a roof decking?
The purpose for a roofdeck is to add a decorative element to the exterior, and it can include trim, decorative accents, or decorative openings.
When it comes to roof decks for interior and exterior railings in general, a number of options are available.
Some designers prefer to have a combination roof deck with a number or pattern of decorative openings, while other designers prefer a single roof deck that is made of multiple roofing materials and panels.7.
What does it mean to install an interior tile or exterior stairwell rail?
When you are installing a new home, the goal of the interior tile is to create a beautiful, decorative interior.
It’s important that the interior rail features the same style of tile as the exterior rail, so that it has the same overall effect.
For exterior staircases, it may be a better idea to install a few exterior tiles on the interior deck.
This is because, once installed, they will help with the aesthetics of the entire structure and can help to balance the exterior and interior design.8.
How much do interior and/or exterior rail systems cost?
Most people will spend more money on interior and external rail systems than they would on an exterior stair or roof.
However, you may want to consider adding some exterior railing to your home if the amount of interior space is a major concern for you.
For instance, if your house is about 150 square feet and you are looking for a 1,000-square-foot home with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, it might be more economical to purchase an interior stair and/ or an exterior rail system.9.
How will I know if my house has interior or exterior rail or roof?
If you are interested in interior or external rail or decking, you will need to consider several factors to determine whether your home has interior rail.
First, it should have a roof level.
If you have an interior railing, make sure the deck is level enough for you to see through and down into the roof, as well as that the tile is installed in a manner that will not interfere with the deck.
Second, you should know the type and level of flooring you are planning on using.
If the tile you plan on installing does not have a slope, make a note of

punch list excel template Goal.goodwinmetals.co
An Excel template is an excellent location for the project manager to begin acquiring their documented master planning in an organized manner. Downloading the template gives you the freedom to get better and more innovative features and functions from templates that are hard to think about when creating the template without expert help. Fortunately, there are several quality free construction estimation templates.
The document will offer each worker included in the project a summary of the work that must be carried out to ensure that the project is completed in a timely manner. In some cases, a particular document may use a different form than normal and immediately adhere to the normal form. The document prepared by the owner near the conclusion of a construction project is known as the Punch list.
In some types of contracts, the lists of results are the section of the construction contract, while in other projects the project manager or the owner in the last stages of the company. In general, they are prepared in the last days of the project and an appropriate format must be used to create a detailed list. You may also prefer to produce the list of punches. The Construction Drill List should be revised at last to ensure that everything is completed perfectly.
Determine the type of record book you need to make. In many cases, you may want to put together a personalized log book. You may also be able to buy a record book from an office supply store that meets your needs with minimal modifications. Regardless of the demands of your logbook, you can easily assemble a customized logbook that meets your requirements.
A construction checklist can help with planning the things that should be done at the scheduled time. It is a guide of the elements you need to have for the construction or a list of procedures and processes that you must do to complete the construction of a certain infrastructure. To make sure you remember something, you should download a checklist from the web. A construction checklist could be used in various constructions from the introduction of a major construction to the construction of a small home. Owning a construction checklist is also quite essential, as it provides the guarantee of protection for all construction workers. It is crucial to have a complete construction verification list, as it will allow everyone involved in the construction to understand the details of each step that is being taken for construction.
You can check other regions of the project to see if there is something else that is possible to increase the schedule, so that you can work on it in the meantime. It is possible to invoice the project directly once it is finished. Construction projects by nature can be difficult to manage.
All the ideas listed below are extremely cheap (or free in case you have some basic things to use at home) and do not require any unique tools or skills. You can take a look at our Checklist Template and base the design of your checklist from that point on. You can be the first to comment!

Hotel pools range in size from 30 m2 to 200 m2. The use of the pool is greater than that of a domestic pool but not as high as a local authority pool. Hotel pools are usually attached to the health club, it is therefore imperative that the atmosphere inside the pool hall is healthy. This can only be achieved with a fresh air ventilation system.
Full fresh air would be extremely expensive to operate and would mean low humidity’s in the winter, which makes the occupants feel cold and causes high evaporation from the pool water surface. The only solution is therefore controlled fresh air ventilation.
Recotherm’s range of units are based on controlled fresh air ventilation with heat recovery from the exhaust air into the fresh air via an air-to-air plate heat exchanger.


Frequently asked questions
Can masonry construction help with my broken chimney?
YES ! We have been in business since 2006 and worked with different chimneys around Toronto GTA.
What is thin stone veneer?
Thin stone veneer is real natural stone that is quarried and then manufactured. When we say manufactured..we mean it is cut down into thin pieces of stone that only show the natural “Face” of the stone. The finished thickness of the stone after manufacturing it varies from 1 inch to about 2 inches give or take.
What is Re-Pointing?
Re-pointing is the process of cutting out old mortar to a uniform depth, and placing new mortar in the joint to restore it to its original state. Tuck-pointing is a very common technique used by masons in restoration work of older buildings. In some cases Re-pointing can not be used and may require a mason to rebuild a section or the entire project. Contact us today for more information on this topic.

Graphic Journey With Us


When I consider the boundaries of our new district, these are some of the issues that come to mind. Please let me know about other issues that are important to you.
- I-694 Interchange Reconstruction - The project will continue to offer challenges with lane, ramp, and road closures until its completion in 2013.
- Intersection of Highway 10 and Highway 96 - The needs of local residents and businesses need to be considered both in the design and during construction.
- You can find information from MNDOT about these projects here: http://www.dot.state.mn.us/metro/projects/694expand/ .
- Bicycle & pedestrian access linking the suburbs in the area - Currently there are paths within some local areas, but access between Shoreview, Arden Hills, and Mounds View is poor. This will improve somewhat after the improvements to the interchanges of Highways 10, 96, and 35W are completed.
- Area public transit - We have limited public transit currently. I would like to see a more comprehensive, metro-wide plan for the ongoing development of public transit.
District 42A includes many lakes - Josephine, Johanna, Valentine, Round, Spring, Turtle and Snail - and a stretch of Rice Creek, as well as numerous smaller ponds, creeks, and wetlands. These comprise an important natural resource. They provide recreation and wildlife habitat, and provide added value for the many property owners that line their shores. Any legislation affecting them needs to strike a balance between preservation, access, and property value.

The brief concerns the creation of a new synthetic football field in replacement of the existing grass pitch with the construction of a new building including changing rooms, clubhouse, the site construction being carried out without disruption of adjoining sport activities.
Taking advantage of the existing topography, the “semi-encased” volume in the existing embankment minimized its visual impact in the landscape environment of the Alfred-Marcel Vincent Sports Park. The embankment also provides enhanced thermal and acoustic insulation for the south-east side façade.
The roof of the building is treated as an accessible terrace open to the public from above, with a natural separation between the public and players, offering large panoramic views of the ground and the city.

Generally speaking, a building construction project should be completed in accordance with the permit drawings and specifications approved by the municipal building department in which the project is located; however, changes are made by parties involved in projects prior to and/or during the construction phase for financial and/or technical reasons, with or without the municipality’s knowledge.
The intent of the Transition (Defect) Report is to provide clients with a professional assessment that includes a list of readily visible construction deficiencies noted during several walkthroughs of the building’s common elements and site that are perceived as omissions and/or poor quality workmanship.
Additionally, repair recommendations and the urgency of such repairs are part of the report so that the clients are aware of them and can then maintain the common elements and site in an operational and safe condition.
Maxima's technical staff have successfully completed numerous transition study reports.

This project involved the restoration of tidal marsh, seasonal wetlands, and transitional habitats on a 6 acres of filled former tidal marsh within the Corte Madera Ecological Reserve on the shores of San Francisco Bay. Dan Gillenwater of Gillenwater Consulting was a member of the project planning and design team and performed baseline site condition assessments, developed the preliminary project design drawings, prepared all maps and preliminary construction quantities for the permit applications, and worked directly with the project engineer and CAD technician to translate the preliminary project design into final construction plans and specifications. The project was successfully constructed in the fall of 2017.
This project involves the restoration of ephemeral creek, seasonal wetland, floodplain, and tidal marsh habitat along two drainages entering Suisun Marsh on the Rush Ranch Open Space Preserve in Solano County, CA. Dan Gillenwater of Gillenwater Consulting was a member of the project design team and assisted in developing the habitat restoration design and monitoring/management program for this project. Mr. Gillenwater prepared all preliminary project design maps and construction quantities, was the lead author of the restoration design report and all project permits, and worked directly with the project engineer and CAD technician to translate the preliminary project design into final construction plans and specifications. Project construction is scheduled for fall 2019.
This project involves creating hydrologic enhancements within 300 acres of tidal marsh in the San Pablo Bay National Wildlife Refuge to improve habitat conditions for special status species and reduce mosquito production. Dan Gillenwater (while employed at Wetlands and Water Resources, Inc.) was the project manager for the initial planning phase of the project (2007 – 2014) and was responsible for background data collection and analysis, enhancement design, regulatory compliance process coordination, and CEQA/NEPA and permit document preparation. Gillenwater Consulting was hired in 2015 to assist with construction oversight for project Phase 1 implementation and to perform post-construction hydrology and geomorphology monitoring at the site. In 2018, Gillenwater Consulting was hired to lead the project Phase 2 planning process, which involved reviewing project monitoring data and current site conditions and adjusting the Phase 2 design to account for changes at the site since Phase 1 implementation. Some Phase 2 design elements were implemented in fall 2018, while the remainder of Phase 2 construction is planned for fall 2019.
This project is a long-term collaboration among various government agencies, universities, and private landowners to evaluate the nature of effluent from wetlands managed for duck hunting in Suisun Marsh and to develop and test best management practices (BMPs) for reducing negative impacts to receiving waters. Dan Gillenwater of Gillenwater Consulting is the Principal Investigator in charge of the field data collection program and managing all data generated by the project. Data collection activities include continuous surface water hydrology and water quality monitoring, discrete water quality sampling, and topographic surveying. Mr. Gillenwater is also the principal author of the Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) and the Final Data Collection Report. The BMPs developed in this effort are undergoing pilot-scale implementation within Suisun Marsh and have resulted in notable water quality improvements.
The Bahia Wetland Restoration Project involved the restoration of 375 acres of tidal marsh, seasonal wetlands, and transitional habitats along the Petaluma River in Marin County, CA. Gillenwater Consulting was hired to carry out the year-5 post-construction hydrology, geomorphology, and vegetation monitoring to assess project progress toward meeting stated restoration goals. Gillenwater Consulting and our subcontractors performed topographic and bathymetric surveys, monitored surface water tidal hydrology, and assessed changes in vegetation cover by remote-sensing methods. The monitoring results indicated that all performance criteria for hydrology, geomorphology, and vegetation cover were being met by 2015.
Gillenwater Consulting was hired to design and implement a study testing the efficacy of drone-based photogrammetry for mapping shoreline topography and evaluating landform change at an estuarine beach restoration site in Marin County, CA. Gillenwater Consulting worked with a drone-based imagery provider to perform three photogrammetry surveys at the site over a one-year period. Gillenwater Consulting then performed an accuracy assessment on the resulting data, mapped shoreline topography, and performed a landform change detection analysis using the photogrammetry data. The technology proved adequate for high-resolution topographic mapping on a variety of substrates/beach slopes and is proposed for use in monitoring efforts at similar sites around Marin County.
This project involves the restoration of ephemeral creek, seasonal wetland, floodplain, and tidal marsh habitat along two drainages entering Suisun Marsh on the Rush Ranch Open Space Preserve in Solano County, CA. In addition to being a member of the project design team (see discussion in the Habitat Restoration Planning and Design section, above), Dan Gillenwater of Gillenwater Consulting was a co-author of the project CEQA compliance document and prepared all environemtal permit applications and associated supporting documents for the project. These permits included federal Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 404 and Section 401 permits from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and State Water Resources Control Board (respectively), a Suisun Marsh Development Permit from the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission, and a Lake and Streambed Alteration Agreement from the California Dept. of Fish and Wildlife. In addition, Mr. Gillenwater prepared the federal Endangered Species Act Section 7 consultation materials for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, required as part of the CWA Section 404 permitting process. As of October 2018, all permits have either been received, or are in the final approval process. Construction is planned for fall 2019.
Gillenwater Consulting was hired to develop a regulatory compliance strategy for the proposed construction of a commercial bakery facility and associated warehouse on a 30-ac property in Richmond, CA to facilitate the sale of that property to a prospective buyer. Gillenwater Consulting reviewed project design plans and existing site conditions documents prepared by other consultants and worked closely with the client and regulatory agencies to develop a comprehensive regulatory compliance strategy addressing all potential environmental permitting requirements for development on the property. The property transfer was finalized in summer, 2017.
Gillenwater Consulting was hired as the principal environmental consultant on a proposed recreation facility and community park development project on the former Hamilton Army Airfield in Novato, CA. Gillenwater Consulting conducted a jurisdictional wetland delineation on the property, developed a mitigation plan for potential impacts to wetland resources, prepared a comprehensive regulatory compliance strategy for the project, and provided review of all in-progress project designs to ensure compliance with environmental regulations and requirements. The project is currently on hold, pending approval by the Novato City Council.
Gillenwater Consulting was hired to provide GIS and cartographic services to the Delta Stewardship Council to support the 2018 updates to the Delta Plan. The bulk of this effort is focused on identifying habitat restoration opportunity areas in Suisun Marsh and the Delta. Gillenwater Consulting developed GIS-based tools and maps that integrate LiDAR topographic data, tidal datum modeling results, and infrastructure/land use data to identify and prioritize these restoration opportunity areas. The work products from this project are currently being used to support landscape-scale conservation planning efforts.
Gillenwater Consulting has a long-term contract with Foth Engineering's surveying division in Novato, CA to provide as-needed GIS support. The GIS services provided through this contract have included raster and vector spatial analysis, LiDAR data processing and analysis, aerial photograph processing and analysis, custom GIS application development, and cartography.
Gillenwater Consulting was hired by Siegel Environmental to provide GIS services for an assessment of the vulnerability of the City of San Rafael shoreline to sea level rise. This work involve identifying the extent of levees at risk of overtopping and lands at risk of flooding under various scenarios, and preparing detailed maps for presentation to City staff.


Certain types of roof system, roof systems, found primarily in the Benelux countries, do not use the type of wooden rafters and purlins commonly found elsewhere in roof construction. Self-supporting, insulating roofing elements are laid vertically instead to create a roofing framework. These elements mainly comprise thick-walled insulation held in place at the edges by wooden rafters. The conventional type of roof hook cannot be used with these roof systems as they cannot be fastened to the narrow rafters supporting the roof overhang. Kit systems comprising roof hooks hung from a tile or batten provide no alternative in such cases as these roof systems are not able to withstand load on the tiles. The new Rapid 2L roof hook system solves this problem in that it diverts the forces into the vertical wooden rafters via a specifically designed mounting kit.
