Construction Methods and Building Materials
Today visitors often approach the massive pyramids, temples, and obelisks of the ancient Egyptians with wonder and disbelief. The huge blocks of stone used to create these architectural masterpieces were quarried and moved without the aid of modern technologies, and it is diffi cult for us to imagine how such feats of engineering could be accomplished without the aid of cranes, bulldozers, truc...
متن کاملSmart materials and structures.
A smart structure is a system containing multifunctional parts that can perform sensing, control, and actuation; it is a primitive analogue of a biological body. Smart materials are used to construct these smart structures, which can perform both sensing and actuation functions. The ‘‘I.Q.’’ of smart materials is measured in terms of their ‘‘responsiveness’’ to environmental stimuli and their ‘...
متن کاملEstimating radiation dose from building materials
Background: Natural radioactivity in materials under certain conditions can reach the hazardous radiological levels. So, it becomes necessary to study the natural radioactivity in different materials to assess the dose for the population in order to know the health risks and to have a baseline for future changes in the environmental radioactivity due to human activities. Materials and ...
متن کاملManagement of Waste from Packaging of Construction Materials in Building Construction Works
Every material arriving at the construction site comes protected in some type of packaging, fundamentally cardboard, plastic or wood, and presently the great majority of these packagings finish in a container mixed with the rest of waste of the construction work. The increasing tendency to use prefabricated materials increases the volume of packaging necessary in product transport; in addition,...
متن کاملBiologically inspired ‘smart’ materials
Inspiration from nature and its translation to designing the next generation of biomedical devices have received immense attention recently. Biologically inspired materials utilise billions of years of evolution to generate diverse properties that would otherwise be difficult to achieve. These materials have the potential to address many limitations associated with more traditional materials. T...
