Buildings

A description of the lake in the night is this :

ummm...

The reflection of the moon was seen on the surface of the lake, clear as cystal, pure as a blanket of snow.

Dark-grey clouds loomed over the moon ominously and the lake was perished and brought to despair and darkness once again.

The Russian city of Moscow is the location of the Ostankino Tower. It's a free-standing radio and television tower that rises 1,770 feet [540 meters] upwards. At this point, in the middle of 2010, it's considered the tallest tower in Europe, and the fourth highest worldwide.

Theatre Building Chicago was created in 1977.

yes actually there have been two people to climb this majestic man made marvel, those two handsome and single lads names were, Sam"the kid dynamite" Webster, and Mike "bennington bad boy" bradley.

The Burj Khalifa means "Khalifa tower" in Arabic. It is named for Sheikh Khalifa (Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan), the emir of Abu Dhabi and president of the United Arab Emirates.

The Burj Khalifa is a skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and is the world's tallest building since 2010. Originally it was called the Burj Dubai, but problems with the financing and marketing of the huge structure led to seeking outside capital, which was provided by the ruler of the neighboring emirate of Abu Dhabi.

Ireland is located on the Eurasian Plate, which covers Europe and parts of Asia.

I agree that Eiffel Tower looks letter "A", with a curved tip. Its true shape is somewhat more sharply curved.

As a target it could hardly be overlooked. It routinely houses as many as 25,000 military and civilian workers.

Hi,

A one way slab reinforcement supports 2 walls while a two way slab reinforcement supports 4 walls. The one way slab reinforcement only supports walls in one direction.

The oldest continental crust is found in large, stable areas with little seismic/volcanic activity found in the centre of continents, called Cratons. Examples of these are Yilgarn Craton in Australia, and the Kaapvaal Craton in South Africa. The oldest rocks found within these cratons can be up to 3.8 billion years old (3,800 million).

However, because the forces of erosion and deposition are always at work creating new rocks, continental crust also contains much younger rocks - some only a few hundred thousand years old.

In short, there is no specific age for continental crust, and unlike oceanic crust that is created and destroyed at a fairly constant rate, continental crust is less dense and thus doesn't undergo subduction at plate boundaries. Less "recycling" means older rocks are more likely to survive.

The Iroquois longhouse was a building usually 60 - 100 feet long, sometimes much longer, 16-20 feet wide, and 15-16 feet high. It had a frame of saplings (young slender trees) and was covered with sheets of bark on the sides and top. It was occupied by a group of families; for every two families there would be a fire, usually spaced about 20 feet apart, with a hole in the roof above to let the smoke out. The hole could be covered with another piece of bark during rain or snow.

No, it has to do with the fact that modern buildings are better insulated (for heating/cooling) and better sealed to prevent air leaks (which cause loss of hot/cold air to the outside). This reduces the number of air exchanges that happen per hour with the outside to bring in fresh air. With less fresh air the pollutants concentrate in the internal air.

Some HVAC systems partially correct this issue by using forced air heat exchanger systems that draw in outside air through a heat exchanger while exhausting inside air through the same heat exchanger so that the fresh outside air is warmed/cooled to the temperature of the inside air before being released inside and the dirty inside air is cooled/warmed to the temperature of the outside air before being exhausted outside. This helps but can add significant cost to the HVAC system and does not work in a power failure.

Ohio has 24 lighthouses.

Steel reinforcing rods have minimum overlap requirements to ensure that the reinforcing has a continuous effect throughout the structure.
In some instances this minimum overlap is 600mm, but the requirement does vary and must be confirmed by an Engineer for each particular design.

Maximum overlaps would be used to ensure wastage is reduced, and to ensure adequate concrete cover.

It is an office building with Tower One used exclusively by Petronas (Petrolian Nasional Berhad) the State owned oil and gas company while Tower Two has a variety of renters including IBM, Boeing, Bloomberg and a variety of others.

That was M/S Kenzo Tange Associates.

Yes, laws should require buildings built near faults to be earthquake-proof to protect the safety of occupants and minimize property damage. Earthquake-proof buildings are designed to withstand strong seismic forces and reduce the risk of collapse during an earthquake, which is crucial in high-risk areas. This proactive measure can help save lives and mitigate the impact of earthquakes on communities living near faults.

it is a strong device to keep lots of light items hold.

Also it when there is lots of different parts of the structure but they are together. Also when there is something that helps support the whole thing. Like think of a bridge there are lots of parts and strong can hold lots of things also more than one part but it is together.

I'm told that it was in Lower Baxter Street, over the ladies' clothes shop on the corner with Abbeygate Street. It became a bar with a different name, and is now offices.

YES. The home is actually in Cortland Manor NY. The area at one time shared the Peekskill zip code. Several Celebrities lived nearby including Arron Copland and Allen Funt of Candid Camera fame. The address is: 196 Furnace Dock Rd, Cortlandt Manor, NY 10567. Andrew Francella

Crystal Palace burned down in 1936 and only the stone plinth now remains.
