Architecture

The average American home is Ranch style, single story, 3 bedrooms,1 bathroom, and has 1300-1500 sq. ft. of living space.

==============================================

The above would be typical of homes constructed in the southeastern USA in the 70's and 80's, but not as common today.

Today you are more likely to find bungalows and two story cottages, and you would rarely see a home built today that doesn't have at least 2 baths.

Styles vary in other parts of the country.

Blueprints are usually drawn by an architect. In some cases interior designers will also draw blueprints. The other group of people who regularly draw blueprints is students and apprentices of architecture.

Generally, architects are either self employed or salaried employees. In either case, most do not receive overtime pay. They are expected to meet project deadlines and get the job done right. Additional compensation for working extra hours and doing a good job is often received as a quarterly or annual bonus. The amount of the salary and bonus is usually based on a combination of the architect's ability and productivity, and on the overall financial health of the firm.

Sustainable Architecture is when a design is less damaging to the area in which it is being placed. For instance using a type of asphalt that allows water to pass through it. Or else using systems within the building to eliminate the amount of energy need or water used such as low flow toilets or water catch systems. This allows building to be more environmentally friendly and green.

Music mixes can be broken down a few ways. The tempo can slow down or increase, instruments can fade in and out, and beats can be added. The producer can add all these together to create a track.

It varies with experience and location, but I can speak for Vancouver, Canada. A senior project architect in Vancouver should top $100k (more with a larger firm). Entry level interns earn about 45-55k, and this can jump to $60-80k with registration. Partners in large firms can make $400k and up.

That should be "affect" not "effect".

Acid rain causes stone and bricks to erode more rapidly than they normally would, and iron structures will oxidize (rust) more quickly; as a general rule, the softer the material, the greater the erosion.

it is dangerouse because there is not enough air resistance and gravity pulls u down

Generally speaking, there is no difference, although, sometimes, storeys refer to floors above the ground floor, so, a building with 4 storeys would have 5 floors. Mostly, though, house floors are always referred to as floors, not storeys, and if they are referred to as storeys, then it's the same number of floors. 'Storeys' is a term mostly reserved for commerce, office, and apartment buildings.

Lounge room or sitting room are two more.

The integration of structure with its environment was quite a concept at the time. It used poured concrete and extensive use of cantilever support.

Generally, a bathroom wall cabinet is hung under the same rules as those in the kitchen. Keep in mind, the rules are a little looser these days with 10' ceilings and huge kitchens and bathrooms, so they are intended as a starting point and you can shift the cabinet from there, if you like. The first rule, which is the general rule, is that the bottom of the cabinet should be at 54" above the finished floor. This rule comes from the 36" standard height of your kitchen countertop plus 18". So, if you want your bathroom cabinet to be the same height as your upper kitchen cabinets, that will be the point you want to measure. The second rule is that there really is no rule. Bathroom cabinet standards are pretty loose, partly because bathroom setups and toilet heights can vary (based on tank size, tank placement, or even no tank). Plus, a stand alone bathtub can also vary the height of a cabinet. So basically, put the cabinet wherever you want it. Keep in mind, though, that you can greatly improve the look of a bathroom and your decorating options by hanging a cabinet low enough to put a rail or crown moulding at the top of it and place plants or other objects on top for accent Hope this helped a little. Wish there was more to it. Good luck!

The Echelon Tower is a famous building located in Manila, in the Philippines. It's a condominium type building and its height is a estimated of 50.44 m.

Central Park in New York City was first open to the public in 1857. However it was not finished at this point, and a competition was launched to see who could present the best ideas for developing the park. Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux came up with the winning idea, now known as the 'Greensward Plan'.

The average width of a street varies a lot by city and by-law. 40 Feet for the road allotment is a good number though. For example California has a minimum of 40 feet for all city streets. I believe some laws require 64 feet for major roads too.

Excellent architectural structures we can find in the Minoan civ (the second greek civ) during the 3rd millennium BC (starting in 2700 BC). Suburb use of light, polythira (πολύθηρα) a series of stone revolving doors, internal pluming and heating ( both discovered earlier but independent (Harappan (indus valley civ) and north Korean ondol).

The following Mycenean civ didnt make significant advances in architecture nor does the archaic period, though we find beautiful ηρώα (heroon): mausoleums of heroes.

During the period of city states (starting in the 9th century BC) we can see the classical greek architecture forming. The temple of Artemis (present day Turkey), the mausoleum of Hallicarnaseus (also present day Turkey) and the Parthenon are such examples.

The following is written by and according to the U.S. Department of Labor and particular to the nature of work for architects. People need places in which to live, work, play, learn, worship, meet, govern, shop, and eat. These places may be private or public; indoors or out; rooms, buildings, or complexes, and architects design them. Architects are licensed professionals trained in the art and science of building design who develop the concepts for structures and turn those concepts into images and plans. Architects create the overall aesthetic and look of buildings and other structures, but the design of a building involves far more than its appearance. Buildings also must be functional, safe, and economical and must suit the needs of the people who use them. Architects consider all these factors when they design buildings and other structures. Architects may be involved in all phases of a construction project, from the initial discussion with the client through the entire construction process. Their duties require specific skills-designing, engineering, managing, supervising, and communicating with clients and builders. Architects spend a great deal of time explaining their ideas to clients, construction contractors, and others. Successful architects must be able to communicate their unique vision persuasively. The architect and client discuss the objectives, requirements, and budget of a project. In some cases, architects provide various predesign services: conducting feasibility and environmental impact studies, selecting a site, preparing cost analysis and land-use studies, or specifying the requirements the design must meet. For example, they may determine space requirements by researching the numbers and types of potential users of a building. The architect then prepares drawings and a report presenting ideas for the client to review. After discussing and agreeing on the initial proposal, architects develop final construction plans that show the building's appearance and details for its construction. Accompanying these plans are drawings of the structural system; air-conditioning, heating, and ventilating systems; electrical systems; communications systems; plumbing; and, possibly, site and landscape plans. The plans also specify the building materials and, in some cases, the interior furnishings. In developing designs, architects follow building codes, zoning laws, fire regulations, and other ordinances, such as those requiring easy access by people who are disabled. Computer-aided design and drafting (CADD) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology has replaced traditional paper and pencil as the most common method for creating design and construction drawings. Continual revision of plans on the basis of client needs and budget constraints is often necessary. Architects may also assist clients in obtaining construction bids, selecting contractors, and negotiating construction contracts. As construction proceeds, they may visit building sites to make sure that contractors follow the design, adhere to the schedule, use the specified materials, and meet work quality standards. The job is not complete until all construction is finished, required tests are conducted, and construction costs are paid. Sometimes, architects also provide postconstruction services, such as facilities management. They advise on energy efficiency measures, evaluate how well the building design adapts to the needs of occupants, and make necessary improvements. Often working with engineers, urban planners, interior designers, landscape architects, and other professionals, architects in fact spend a great deal of their time coordinating information from, and the work of, other professionals engaged in the same project. They design a wide variety of buildings, such as office and apartment buildings, schools, churches, factories, hospitals, houses, and airport terminals. They also design complexes such as urban centers, college campuses, industrial parks, and entire communities. Architects sometimes specialize in one phase of work. Some specialize in the design of one type of building-for example, hospitals, schools, or housing. Others focus on planning and predesign services or construction management and do minimal design work. Work environment. Usually working in a comfortable environment, architects spend most of their time in offices consulting with clients, developing reports and drawings, and working with other architects and engineers. However, they often visit construction sites to review the progress of projects. Although most architects work approximately 40 hours per week, they often have to work nights and weekends to meet deadlines.
