An architect.

David Brandon - architect - died in 1897.

Yes. I am sitting in one as I write and it works just fine. Although "tenement" has a negative connotation, the modern term is "apartment building". In New York City, the "new tenement law" of the early 1900s resulted in dumbbell-shaped buildings. This was done to create courtyards that permit every room of every apartment to have access to natural light and fresh air.

Although the turn-of-the-century "old tenement law" was an improvement, it was in many ways insufficient. The old law required windows in every room, but did not say they had to open to the outside world. Consequently, developers built windows between rooms and transoms to evade that requirement and maximize income-producing floor space. Skylights and air shafts, too small for a person to fit through, satisfied the requirements for light and air, but proved inadequate and eventually collected trash at the bottom, where there was no easy way to clean it out.

Under the new tenement law, transoms were outlawed and windows had to open to the outside. Most architects in New York City responded by creating dumbbell tenements, although in Jackson Heights, Queens, a different style was more popular: one in which all interior windows opened on an interior courtyard which featured a fountain and space for tenants to socialize.

The dumbbell tenement, as an architectural type, in New York City is preferred by tenants over old law tenements (with air shafts), railroad apartments and other less airy arrangements.

Time is relative to the speed of the observer and the faster an observer travels at the slower time will appear for him. So time slows down with speed not with distance.

Hollow bricks are used as air is a good insulator.

Thick walls are used to reduce heat loss to the surroundings as the brick is also a poor conductor of heat. (although not as much effective as air)

In architecture a corbel is a type of bracket or weight within the wall of a building usually around the corners. A console is similar but is attached to the wall rather than being built into it.

Carbon is the backbone, the mother-of-all, the big-papa of ALL organic molecules. Carbon is most certainly found in plants, in humans, in the dirt, in bacteria, everywhere you can imagine.

As far as free carbon goes, it is extremely rare, however. Most all of the carbon will be found utilized in molecules like sugars, lipids, DNA, RNA, proteins, cell walls, you name it it uses carbon. Carbon is such a friendly element to bind to you will hardly find it alone, except in cases like graphite (C60?) which is made entirely of carbon

Retaining walls are at least partially below gound or water level. Their function is to retain the soil or water behind them.This means that a large part of the load they bear is sideways and that they must resist overturning, sliding and bowing as well as any vertical loads.

Corrugated sheet metal roofs are structurally stronger than flat sheet metal.

It depends on the roof height and (or) customer preference .

Building houses differently will do absolutely nothing to cause or prevent tornadoes. You can, however, reduce the damage done by tornadoes. Within the realm of normal home construction, houses can be built with more closely spaced beams to strengthen the walls, and should be anchored to their foundations with closely spaced steel bolts. The roof should have hurricane ties so it is less likely to be removed by extreme winds. Once the roof is removed the walls can become vulnerable to collapse. Some people go to greater lengths; rather than building standard wood frame houses they build using steel-reinforced masonry, which can resist all but the strongest tornadoes.

It's simple really... much like Gold 24k is not as hard as 12k. There are different types of stainless steels: when nickel is added, for instance, the austenite structure of iron is stabilized.

When considering stainless steel it's much the same as Gold. The lower the gage of metal i.e; 15g verses 18g the better grade of metal. Just because it's a stainless steel sink doesn't mean it will not stain. Often lower price sinks have less nickle and more iron in the stainless. This will allow the sink to develop rust areas and more apt to scratch.
