The drawings below offer some basic guidelines for restaurant and cafeteria table capacities.

Tables: What Size Do You Need?

Capacities are based on standard chair sizes. If large, swiveling or castored chairs are used, adjust accordingly. Having the right combination of sizes of tables in a restaurant can decrease wait time for customers and can maximize seating capacity and profit. Avoid using large dedicated tables (eight-person or larger) in small restaurants to save space and seating capacity.Use small tables in small restaurants and then combine them to accommodate parties of varying sizes.

Be aware that combining tables may cause some temporary seating capacity loss (e.g. two 4-person tables combined to seat only six customers). Room size, shape and function determine the layout of tables in a room. What determines table size? The architectural standard for dining suggests that 300 square inches be allowed per diner. Some menus require larger than the recommended minimum 300 square inches per diner.

How to Calculate the Seating Capacity of a Restaurant. Eurban solid timber panels are from sustainably managed forests and minimise on-site construction waste at Sustainable Guernsey. January 31st, 2011 by Sustainable Guernsey Atelier BasMooArc designed the new home at Portelet using Eurban solid timber panels.

Eurban solid timber panels are from sustainably managed forests and minimise on-site construction waste at Sustainable Guernsey

Eurban sourced their laminated pine panels for the Portelet home from a manufacturer in Switzerland. The panels were manufactured from slices of glued laminated timber or glulam (as opposed to layers of board) which changes the grain direction and makes the panels more dimensionally stable. The Swiss factory is an integrated saw-milling and manufacturing plant. Logs arrive at the plant and leave as finished cut-to-specification panels. The timber logs for this project came from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified forests within an average 60 kilometre radius of the mill. New Age Glass. Building technologies: Precast concrete pavement lights. Technical author Kevan Brassington introduces these ubiquitous units, described in the NBS work section, H14.

Building technologies: Precast concrete pavement lights

Used to allow light to basement areas, pavement lights first appeared in London in the late 1880s in the form of cast iron frames glazed with cut squares of glass. Plain glass fenestration was quickly superseded by pressed glass lenses, which in turn were succeeded by pressed glass prism lenses designed to transmit as much light as possible. Reinforced concrete, patented in France by Joseph Monier in 1867 (for the production of garden ornaments), and the introduction of machine-made glass in 1903, allowed French architect Joachim to build the first glass and concrete dome a year later.

News - Low Impact Building: Housing using Renewable Materials published - now 10% off - TRADA ...all about wood and timber

This guide is about changing the way we build houses to reduce their ‘carbon’ footprint and minimize environmental damage. The book explores the nature of renewable materials in depth: where do they come from, what are they made of and how do they get into the construction supply chain? The difference between artisan and self-build materials like earth and straw, and more highly processed and manufactured products such as wood fibre insulation boards is explored. The author then gives an account of the Renewable House Programme in the UK explaining how it came about and how it was funded and managed by Government agencies.
