When would each one be the best solution? * Discuss the importance of fire resistance and grounding. What are some regulations regarding each of these? Conduit and/or duct/tray fiber optics installation: Use of conduit for fiber optic installation is good if fiber optics are to be run outside the building but not necessary, or not recommended if the fiber optics cable will be use inside the building. Use of trays for fiber optic installation: Cables in ducts and trays are not subjected to tensile forces.
The location also needs to be a far enough distance away from GWA's main headquarters so that any area power outages would not affect both locations. It also needs to have access to a reliable electricity source. Finally, the location should not be so far away as to make frequent visits impractical and cost-prohibitive. 2. Structure: Engineers and architects would be consulted to determine the most cost-effective, suitably strong structure for protection of the equipment based on location and history of natural weather disasters in that location.
The impacts created from an earthquake can come from the physical factors of the size, the location of the epicentre and the surrounding areas such as a ground type and the lithology of the rocks. However they can also be influenced by human factors such as land use of an area, population density of an area and the use of technology or the equipment a country have that can monitor the event. By this they can prepare or plan for such a disaster. In my essay I shall discuss how the impacts of the earthquake hazards aren’t always human factors and can vary with different events. I shall use examples of the Kobe Earthquake 1995, Boxing Day Tsunami 2004 and the Haiti Earthquake 2010.
The Strap must be attached to the top plate of the wall frame or embedded in the bond beam in at least one place. D. Double Wrap Both Metal Straps must be secured to every rafter/truss with a minimum of 3 nails, wrapping over and securing to the opposite side of the rafter/truss with a minimum of 1 nail. Each Strap must be attached to the top plate of the wall frame or embedded in the bond beam in at least one place. E. Structural Anchor bolts structurally connected or reinforced concrete roof. F. Other: G. Unknown or Unidentified H. No attic access 5.
The public services would be unprepared for the potential incidents also no problems or area of improvement would be highlighted which would then occur during the response this which can result in the serious injuries and even deaths of those involved in the incident. Nothing form past incidents would be learned from because of the poor relations and communications between services. This is why Inter-agency planning and communication is vital when the public services respond to a major incident, allows the public service to respond efficiently and effectively to incidents which will save peoples life’s and prevent any further escalation of the
The areas affected consistently by hurricanes will be studied and avoided. Building an office and warehouse away from these areas may be costly, but may be the only option if no quality buildings are available to
a) Suggest reasons why these earthquakes had such varied consequences. The earthquakes had such varied consequences because different countries can respond better then others and are more prepared for disasters. Some countries are more economically developed in such a way they are able to have earthquake resist building to this extent they don’t fall over and cause more damage to the area or kill people. Also timing is a big issue due to if an earthquake occurs at night-time most people are sleeping there are less people are out at night so this will be more save to be in your house. Countries that are more developed are usually prepared for the earthquake to occur because warnings around the area go out to make sure everyone knows that an earthquake is going to occur.
2.1 General SCC has been a milestone in the field of concrete technology. It is an advance form of concrete which has the ability to flow under its self-weight without the need of any mechanical vibration. SCC was developed by Prof. Okamura in the year 1986, at the University of Tokyo. It aimed at improving the quality of construction and to overcome the problems of defective workmanship. The prototype of SCC for structural applications was first completed in 1988, it was called “high performance concrete”, later named as “self-compacting high performance concrete”.

This piecer style graffiti is considered appropriate and is not required to be covered up. I acknowledge the difference between owning the building you are tagging vs not owning the building you are tagging, but in laymen’s terms tagging is illegal. If you look past the legalities, graffiti is an expression of
