DISADVANTAGES

Solid timber will shrink, warp, cup, crown, twist, an swell, (caused by moisture/humidity) creative jointing becomes a must along with high quality glues. There is a significant cost premium for using solid timber The timber matures when exposed to direct and indirect sunlight - Colours darken with age As it is a natural product there will be grain and colour variation from various batches/planks Needs ongoing care in the form of wood oils, etc Traditional solid sawn lumber is still a very popular choice for builders primarily due to familiarization with the product. The costs for solid sawn lumber are initially lower, but product quality issues can become costly for builders to correct after installation. Dimensional lumber is also limited to smaller depths and lengths since their size is dependent on the size of the timber cut to make them. An engineered solution Consistency of the material quality is the key advantage of engineered wood. Fabricated from dry materials to very tight manufacturing standards, wood I-joists generally do not shrink, warp, cup, crown, or twist. Quality assurance programs are required during manufacturing to ensure final products of uniform strength and stiffness. These factors all contribute the product's dimensional stability. * http://www.housingzone.com/probuilder/article/CA6296677.html

Where are spring valley nutritional products manufactured that are sold at Wal-Mart?

What are the three R's of green design?

The three R's of green design are Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle. "Reduce" emphasizes minimizing waste and resource consumption in the design process. "Reuse" encourages designing products that can be used multiple times or repurposed for different functions. "Recycle" involves creating products that can be broken down and processed into new materials after their initial use, thus closing the loop in the product lifecycle.


Does treatment for lawn grubs kill earthworms?

Yes it will . There are at least three new products on the market to battle white grub infestations in home lawns. Each of these products contains a relatively new chemical active ingredient that behaves much differently than Dursban or diazinon in the past, and the biggest benefit from all of these new products is that they can be applied BEFORE the June Beetles appearAnother nice piece of this puzzle is that the active ingredients are much friendlier to mammals, birds, earthworms and non-target insects than the old mainstays


What are the disadvantages of a Multiview drawing?

Multiview drawings can be complex and time-consuming to create, often requiring significant skill and attention to detail. They may also lead to misinterpretation if the viewer is not familiar with reading technical drawings, as the lack of perspective can make it challenging to visualize the object in three dimensions. Additionally, the multiple views can clutter the drawing, making it harder to identify key features or dimensions at a glance.
