Construction industry: building

However, the chief purpose of introduction of fillers into PCM is to make possible the modification of polymers and thereby create materials with a prescribed set of physico-mechanical properties, and, obviously, the properties of filled materials may be controlled by, for example, varying the type of the base polymer (the matrix ) and filler, its particle size distribution and shape. It may not require a large quantity of filler [7]. Thanks to considerable advances in PCM research, their use in a broad range of industries — machine building, construction, aerospace technology, etc. — has become extensive [8 — 11]. 

Copolymers of vinylidene fluoride with tetrafluoroethylene or hexafluoropropy-lene have recently been developed as an air-drying paint mainly for repair coating of the PVDF finish [2.19]-[2.21], Poly(vinylidene fluoride) is now widely used for coil coating of galvanized iron and aluminum sheets, and as a maintenance-free coating for walls of skyscraper buildings and roofing of industrial constructions. 

POCs and nanocomposite materials are useful in almost every aspect of daily life. These applications include transportation (aerospace, automotive, and marine), medical, packaging industries, construction industries (concrete, building blocks).

The temporary nature of construction sites makes them one of the most dangerous places to work. These regulations are made under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and are designed specifically to promote safety at work in the construction industry. Construction work is defined as any building or civil engineering work, including construction, assembly, alterations, conversions, repairs, upkeep, maintenance or dismantling of a structure.

Within building construction, residential construction has the highest share in general (approximately 40%), followed by commercial institutions (30%), public works (20%) and industrial constructions (10%).

In the surrounding world, physical objects, such as various solids, industrial materials, constructions, buildings, and natural substances, are subjected to continuous or periodical impact of a constant mechanical stress that may lead to their creep. For this reason, scientists have widely studied the problems of the creep resistance of metals at ultrahigh temperatures and polymeric and other materials under normal conditions, as well as slow creep processes occurring in some areas of earth crust. These studies have been particularly extensive in the last few decades.

In the Factories Act of 1937, construction work was first specifically included into safety law, which classed it as building operations and works of engineering construction (building sites being classed as factories ). Further amendments and alterations were made to the 1937 Factories Act in 1948 and 1959, with a final consolidating measure in 1961 to produce the final version. In 1961 and 1966, four sets of Regulations dealing with the construction industry were introduced and lasted for more than 30 years.
