WaterFront ? Water Feature !

Walking down to street, i found this interesting water feature right in front of a restaurant.

Water flow is so nature. First glance on this feature, it gives me a very comfortable feeling. You can sense the water flow like in a stream of the deep in jungle.

Few big stones are placing randomly at the pool. The base is cover with a small river stone and the colour reflect the nature scene of a stream.

Incoming water is flowing in below the small stone, it look like a small foundation.


Perimeter of the pool is surrounding with a gap to allow overflow water to discharge without shed to the floor. A net is installed to filter small tiny stone from choking the pipe.


A nature sense of decoration depend on how good you bring the nature scene insert in a modern building. i wish to have one too..

Coupler

One of the common joint connection - COUPLER. It is a connector to join 2 pieces of bar together.

Coupler is used on certain circumstances. Construction constraint, heavy congested of lapping bar, provision for new element connection, etc.

The inner part of the coupler is spiral threaded to allow next connection bar.

Some grease is applied on thread to smoothen the connection bar in tightening.


External feature or shape of coupler can be in Hexagon shape to ease tightening whereby spanner can be used.

Somehow some parallel feature of coupler pattern is still applicable. Chain wrench can be used for tightening purpose.

No surprise to see this material, as more to come in future as technology goes on.

Penang - Ideal Landed Property

Property heat is getting higher and higher, especially in Penang. We can see residential development is mushrooming in the island or butterworth.

One of the landed property that has been spotted is Richmont Residence. This development is allocated in Jelutong Penang Island.

The very first impression given on this development is on its location, Jelutong. This is a 10 minutes distance to Penang town center or to Penang Bridge. As a golden rules for a property selection, Location, Location and Location. So save you from cracking head to find one, this is the ONE..

Strategy location is already made it stands as a Strong Selling point. It is connected to Jelutong Express way which takes a couple of minutes to travel down to southern part of island.

Furthermore, it is a landed property in Island. Scarcity of land has made the landed property becomes more valuable. Plus surprisingly, it is a freehold property. How can we resist this kind of offer?

Needless to mention about its spacious design and gated community for security enhancement, in term of selling price ( in $/Sq ft) this is unbeatable in town and it also implements Build and Sell concept to assure the buyer on guarantee delivery.

No turning back.. grab it while you can...

Formwork Strutting

There are many types of formwork strutting. Commonly, timber strutting can be seen. The below is the construction of base of drain and using timber strutting for the side formwork.


Another type of strut is steel strutting. See the picture below how steel strut work. Timber strutting can be nail easily. How about steel prop connection?


The end strut is propping to the ground with a U head strutting firmly to a horizontal timber.


The other end of connection is to fix to wall panel like below.

Technology changes. May be one day plastic will be used.
