section shape from sheet steels. Cold-formed steel members include such products as purlins and girts for the construction of metal buildings, studs and joists for light commercial and residential construction, supports for curtain wall systems, formed deck for the construction of floors and roofs, standing seam roof systems, and a myriad of other products. These products have enjoyed significant growth in recent years and are frequently utilized in some shape or form in many projects today. Attributes such as strength, light weight, versatility, non-combustibility, and ease of production, make them cost effective in many applications. This figure shows cross sections of typical products
Different type of heating with the selection criteria
The different modes of heating
> Electric heat has a wide range of devices (coils, radiant panels, etc.). The two main advantages of these machines: the installation is inexpensive and their use is simple, thanks to the control devices and programming present.
The appliances have still some drawbacks. Very energy efficient, their electricity bill may be higher by 20 to 25% compared to gas. With an electric heater, it is better to have a small apartment or a well insulated heating housing.
> The gas heating is certainly more economical and environmentally friendly as electricity. The performance of this type of device is interesting. This is an effective way of heating very quickly and long.
However, depending on the individual steps, the installation of gas heating will be more or less expensive. Also, accommodations must be near a network to benefit from the gas.
> The oil heating rapidly diffuse even heat that will last all day. This is a good alternative in case of no connection to mains gas. Unfortunately, this is not the most economical solution, the cost of installation is important and the price of oil continues to rise.
> Heating with wood can be done with a stove or a fireplace. This is a very environmentally friendly mode of heating the large calorific value. No price varies little and with heat recovery, it offers a good return.
> Solar heating has as main advantage of using free energy and environmentally friendly. However, its installation is very expensive and you will surely need a booster heater to catch the frequent discrepancies between the heat requirements and actual production.
> The heat pump that uses the principle of geothermal energy, restores more energy than consumed. Except when it cold where performance is less effective. You will therefore be helpful to add a supplementary heating. It is less polluting than electric heating and especially more economical to use.
> Biomass exploits the energy of organic materials of animal or vegetable original. This heating method works by combustion, it is less polluting than fossil fuels and its price varies little.
The selection criteria
> Installation
The heating gas, fuel oil and wood require a boiler. The installation thereof is costly, because work must be performed between the laying device and the creation of a pipeline network.
A heat pump, a heating system and solar biomass also requires expensive equipment because it is technologically more complex devices.
However, the installation of an electric heater is inexpensive and very simple, you just need to connect the device to a power outlet.
> Efficiency
An electric heater is unusual turn on very quickly though the heating time is limited unlike a gas heating with oil or wood, where the heat is homogeneous and stays all day.
> Use
Devices with electric heating system are easier to use and more practical thanks to the various options present (control buttons, programming, etc.), depending on model.
> Storage
Electric heaters, gas (if gas city), solar, heat pump, have no need of storage space unlike heating oil, wood and biomass.
> Aesthetics
Electric heaters are the most aesthetic through their choice of design and colors.
> Energy consumption
Electric heating is the system requiring more energy. The gas heating is more economical and environmentally friendly as electricity. Similarly, the heat pump is less polluting than the electric heater. It is economical to use, it restores more energy than that consumed except when it is very cold.
Solar heating is very environmentally friendly because its energy is free.
The biomass and wood heating are also very ecological, their price varies little contrast to the cost of fuel oil is increasing.
> The price varies depending on the cost of the device, difficulty or not its installation, as well as its energy consumption.
Some interesting questions in Design Structure(civil): Part 1
Rafter - One of a series of structural members of a roof designed to support roof loads.
2. What is the header?
Header - Horizontal structural member that supports the load over an opening, such as a door or window.
All the buildings and structures must be designed and constructed in the manner prescribed by law and in accordance with the rules of technical expertise, ensuring the fulfillment of the basic requirements:
- construction safety,
- safety in case of fire,
- safety of utilization,
- appropriate health and hygiene conditions and to protect the environment,
- protection against noise and vibration,
- energy saving and thermal insulation baffles (i.e. walls, roof, ground)
Structural model - idealization of the structural system used for the purposes of analysis, design and verification.
6.What are the limit states?
Limit states - states beyond which the structure no longer fulfils the relevant design criteria.
7.What is the ultimate limit state?
Ultimate limit states - states associated with collapse or with other similar forms of structural failure.
8. What is serviceability limit states?
Serviceability limit states - states that correspond to conditions beyond which specified service requirements for a structure or structural member are no longer met.
9. Give an example of the effect of actions.
Force cause bending moment.
10. What is the design working life (in year) for building structures?
50 years
New archi 2015: Stadium "Bordeaux Atlantique", France, by Herzog & de Meuron
Project delivered for the new Bordeaux stadium is
an expression of fundamentally new architecture.
The pure shape of the volume, by contrast to its light
and open structure, creates an at once monumental
and graceful architectural piece elegantly suited to
the grand landscape of Bordeaux.
offer quality and flexibility to organize major events
that will contribute to the cultural influence of
Bordeaux, the city and the region. The dimensions
of the field will also allow the organization of national
and international rugby matches.
The structure is supported by a forest of slender columns surrounding its periphery. At once dense and light, this structure is completed by the clarity of an intermediate space, the concourse, where stalls and restrooms form an undulating curve.
Stadium architecture combines three constitutive elements: the bowl containing the game and its spectators, the concourse as the transitional element between the playing field and the outside surroundings and, finally, the overall appearance
Our approach is to reinterpret these three elements in light of the site-specific characteristics: the resulting architecture is thus one-of-a-kind, reflecting the intrinsic features of the site
to facilitate the reception of spectators and to fit into the larger project of the City of Bordeaux
in the field of digital technologies.

Clay – the material of construction the world's oldest but also the most modern.
the land uses without having to add a lot of energy or chemical processes, it is naturally a good building material.
In new construction, the clay really gives food for thought in comparison to other more conventional materials. The clay does not trigger any allergy, works easily, and is simply beautiful and accessible to all. This is why CLAYTEC based already a company for the development, production and distribution of construction materials clay modern in 1984 in Germany. In Belgium and Luxembourg DRUWID is one of the pioneers in the renaissance of the clay (since 1993) and motivates its use as a construction material that is universal and also environmentally friendly.
CLAYTEC today offers a wide range of ready-made products for every application imaginable. Our products work with modern machines and make the job so easy. For people who are not experienced, the clay is the ideal material. In fact, free of chemical binder, it gets its hardness by natural drying.
