Curtain wall

It is generally agreed that a shelter with a roof having ridge ventilation and with curtain walls not extending lower than 8 feet above the operating platform would be freely ventilated. Because a gas compressor would not be a source of hazard, except under abnormal conditions such as an equipment failure, this type of compressor shelter is usually classified as a Division 2 area. [Pg.275]

Construction. CR adhesives find uses in countertops and panel fabrication for curtain walls and partitions. Other large volume applications are the joining of... [Pg.671]

This new technology also allowed greater architectural freedom. Post-World War II construction incorporated sealed aluminum and glass facades, or curtain walls. The United Nations Building was the first major post-World War II project to be designed with a curtain wall system and air conditioning. Larger floor cross sections were possible, and interior offices could be created with man-niade environments. [Pg.191]

They range from structural foam molded products (which come from the mold as completed molded products) incorporating low density cores and high density skins of the same materials to products vacuum formed of a plastics material, the core of which becomes cellular during the heating process (Chapter 8). RP translucent structural panels for curtain wall building construction using... [Pg.150]

The cost of GSE Curtain Wall technology varies depending on site conditions. The cost of the HOPE ranges from 10 to 30/ft (D18980E, p. 17). According to the U.S. DOE, the cost of a synthetic barrier installation depends on the subsurface composition, depth, and method of installation. The DOE estimates that installation costs range from 20 to 250/m (D17096R, p. 2). [Pg.638]

Groundwater Control, Inc., an installer of the GSE Curtain Wall system reports that costs for installation will vary dramatically and average around 14/ft installed (personal communication Belinda Bursen, Vice President, Vertical Barriers Division, Groundwater Control, Inc., November 1997). [Pg.638]

Other Types of Portland Cements. White Portland cement is standard Type I or III Pordand cement with raw materials selected and controlled to have negligible amounts of iron and manganese oxides, which impart the gray color. The white Pordand cement is used in decorative and architectural applications like precast curtain walls, terrazzo surfaces, stucco, tile grout, and decorative concrete. [Pg.323]

Also in this case the operating principle of the cell is not public knowledge, and the following description is taken from a patent. The cell in Figure 26 is divided by a curtain wall into a front compartment where the metal accumulates on the heavier chloride bath and an electrolysis compartment with bipolar electrodes where chlorine is collected [296,297], As shown in Figure 27 the metal droplets are collected from all compartments of the cell, whereby the metal separates out... [Pg.531]

Corrosion of Aluminum Components in the Glass Curtain Wall of a Building... [Pg.480]

Corrosion was observed on the aluminum pressure plates and dress-caps that hold the glazing in place on a curtain-walled building. The dress-caps (which have L-shaped cross-sections) were externally clad with thin copper sheet. [Pg.480]

In the fast bed, heat-transfer surface usually appears only in bed walls (or in curtain walls that partially divide the bed into segments). Bubbling-bed designs commonly provide horizontal tubes embedded within the bed. Such tubes are far more subject to erosion than the fast bed s vertical surface. [Pg.30]

Curtain wall A t)q)e of construction in which the walls of the building are non-structural, usually made of glass or metal and glass or from other composite product panels. [Pg.216]

Of equal importance, there was no increase in refractory cost. The roof, flue, and curtain wall temperatures were closely monitored during the initial operation. No increase in the temperature of the monitoring thermocouples was noted. Inspection of the furnace refractory during a normally scheduled shutdown showed no signs of abnormal refractory wear. [Pg.201]
