Here are a few tips for how to assemble your application letter: Subject line: Since hiring, managers receive a lot of emails, make it easy for them to filter application emails. Include your name and the job title you are applying for in the message's subject line. If a job has been assigned a posting number (as happens on Craigslist), provide this as well. Salutation: If possible, address your email to a specific person. United States National CAD Standard - V6. Voluntary adoption of the Standard across the industry will improve the efficiency of building design, construction, and management throughout the life-cycle of facilities.

United States National CAD Standard - V6

Adoption will benefit architects, engineers, contractors, and building owners by establishing a common language for the building design and documentation process. Implementation of the NCS eliminates overhead costs that many organizations now incur trying to maintain proprietary office standards, training new staff in their use, and coordinating proprietary office formats among various design consultants. The United States National CAD Standard (NCS) version 6 is comprised of the Foreword, Administration, AIA CAD Layer Guidelines, Uniform Drawing System, BIM Implementation, Plotting Guidelines and Appendixes. The following are sample pages from each module of the standard (Adobe Acrobat PDFs): Drinking Fountains and Water Coolers. Browsing All Revit Content. Revit — Hussey Seating Company. Hussey Seating products (especially telescopic products) are generally custom configurations that don't readily lend themselves to creating small, workable Revit models.

Accordingly, we've taken a hybrid approach of creating "light" models (or families) that will provide you with most of the design, visualization and 3D modeling benefits desirable at the front end of the design process, while keeping file size constrained in order to enhance model performance. Revit Masonry Fill Patterns for Imperial and Metric Projects. Here you will find the ultimate collection of highly accurate Revit Brick Fill Patterns.

Revit Masonry Fill Patterns for Imperial and Metric Projects

Revit Brick Masonry Fill Patterns come in most combinations or bonding patterns for both US Modular sizes and Metric sizes.

Mayan Art Deco in San Francisco

I’m sure the locals already know plenty about it, but I had no clue it even existed until I was quite literally driving by it. The facade was unlike anything I’d ever seen and I immediately started looking for a parking space. Three blocks later I got lucky. I walked back to the building and started snapping photos. Mayan Revival: 10 Pictures That Show American Architecture Copied Aztecs And Mayans - Design. Even though Mayans and Aztecs lived hundreds of years ago in what is now Mexico and several of the countries that form Central America, people nowadays take plenty of inspiration from them; from a fascination of Mayan astronomical knowledge, to a newfound interest in pre-Hispanic cuisine, to trying to figure out what in the world the Aztec calendar is really about.

Mayan Revival: 10 Pictures That Show American Architecture Copied Aztecs And Mayans - Design

Well, this isn't new, actually. In the 1920s, Frank Lloyd Wright found inspiration in architectural styles of Aztecs, Mayans and other pre-Hispanic civilizations and even incorporated them into his building designs, most notably on the houses he built in Southern California. This was part of a small movement that came even before Art Deco, and it even thrived in the United States before this movement took the world.

Many of these buildings survive to this day, specially in the cities that were bustling in the 1920s. Nikon D810 Digital SLR (Body Only) Wallcostguide1. U-Values for common materials. Reference Table for "U" Values "U" Value is the coefficient of transmission, i.e., the transmission of heat through the materials, which compose the building's "envelope," or outer shell.

U-Values for common materials

"U" Value has an inverse relationship to "R" Value. For example, a building with material with an "R" Value of R-11 converts to an "U" Value of 0.09 ( 1/R or 1/11 = 0.09). The following is a table of common materials and their corresponding "U" Value. If you have a heating application that we can help you save on your monthly heating costs please contact us!

DETAILING CONCRETE MASONRY FIRE WALLS - NCMA. Concrete masonry, due to its inherent durability, reliability and superior fire resistance characteristics, is well suited to a range of fire protection applications.

DETAILING CONCRETE MASONRY FIRE WALLS - NCMA

The International Building Code (IBC) (ref. 1) defines three wall types for fire protection— fire wall, fire barrier and fire partition—depending on the level of protection provided for the type of occupancy and intended use. Of the three defined fire-rated assemblies, a fire wall is generally considered to provide the highest level of robustness and fire safety. As such, it is intended to provide complete separation and must be structurally stable under fire conditions. Generally, fire barriers and fire partitions are required to provide the minimum protection necessary to assure that building occupants can evacuate a structure without suffering personal injury or loss of life.

In addition to these requirements, fire walls reduce the likelihood of fire spread into the adjoining space, thus minimizing major property loss. Gen 2 Practice Management - Architect Exam Prep.

Residential Interiors — Ema Peter Photography. INTERSECT BY LEXUS - TOKYO. August 2013 - Aoyama, Tokyo Lexus has opened its very first flagship space as a global brand. This was a project to create a new conceptual “space” to cast the spotlight on the phenomena and people surrounding Lexus. The design evokes the feeling of a clubhouse or salon that can serve as a platform for gathering and sharing a variety of information and activities. Inside the three story building are a café, a garage that can be utilized as a gallery, a lounge, and a clubroom. The various Lexus elements and technologies are incorporated in the design in a subtle, understated way from the screen on the façade that is inspired by the Lexus spindle grille to the wall made up of car parts.
