Buildings should not only be functional but aesthetically pleasing. This requires the use of decorative materials both on the exterior and inside a building. Building decorative materials reviews the range of materials available and their potential applications. The book begins by considering the main types of decorative material and the physical, mechanical and other properties they require. It then discusses types and potential uses of decorative stone materials such as marble, granite, slate or gypsum. It then goes on to discuss the ways cement and concrete can be used for decorative effect, before considering the role of ceramics in such areas as tiling. The following chapters review decorative glass for windows or facades, metals and wood before assessing polymer materials such as plastics and textiles. The final group of chapters discuss coatings, including waterproofing materials, multi-functional materials used for such purposes as soundproofing and thermal insulation, and the use of more sustainable decorative materials. Building decorative materials is a useful reference for architects, civil engineers and those studying civil or structural engineering. Reviews the full range of materials available for both the exterior and interior of buildings and their potential applications beyond conventional uses Considers the main types of decorative material and the physical, mechanical and other properties they require as the role of sustainable materials Discusses types and potential uses of decorative stone materials such as marble, granite, slate or gypsum and explores how cement and concrete can be used for decorative effect

Written by an architect with many years' experience in practice and teaching, this book is a well-illustrated introduction to the great range of materials used in much of the world's building and construction. It is the only book of its type on the market, and suitable for anyone teaching or studying for building trades, architecture, building, landscape design, structural engineering, and allied disciplines. When first published, a reviewer commented, "This book has filled a large gap in publications available to both students and the building professions." The Fourth (2009) Edition is now available, incorporating many references to current standard codes, research, manufacturers, and other authoritative information on the internet, to expand content further if needed.

Over the concluding decades of the twentieth century, the historic preservation community increasingly turned its attention to modern buildings, including bungalows from the 1930s, gas stations and diners from the 1940s, and office buildings and architectural homes from the 1950s. Conservation efforts, however, were often hampered by a lack of technical information about the products used in these structures, and to fill this gap Twentieth-Century Building Materials was developed by the U.S. Department of the Interior’s National Park Service and first published in 1995. Now, this invaluable guide is being reissued—with a new preface by the book’s original editor. With more than 250 illustrations, including a full-color photographic essay, the volume remains an indispensable reference on the history and conservation of modern building materials. Thirty-seven essays written by leading experts offer insights into the history, manufacturing processes, and uses of a wide range of materials, including glass block, aluminum, plywood, linoleum, and gypsum board. Readers will also learn about how these materials perform over time and discover valuable conservation and repair techniques. Bibliographies and sources for further research complete the volume. The book is intended for a wide range of conservation professionals including architects, engineers, conservators, and material scientists engaged in the conservation of modern buildings, as well as scholars in related disciplines.

Although steel and glass dominate modern cities, Britain boasts innumerable beautiful examples of more traditional construction methods. Many date from the period before easy nationwide transportation, when materials were usually grown or extracted locally, and as a result Britain has a varied legacy of vernacular buildings that reflects its multitude of different landscapes. They display a rich and colorful palette of materials, from the honey-colored stone of the Cotswolds to the red earth of Devon and grey granite of Aberdeen. In this book, buildings historian Matthew Slocombe looks at the range of materials used for walls and roof coverings, explores the processes involved in their extraction, production and manufacture, and outlines the diverse range of skills required for their use in construction.

1.0.1 This code is formulated to implement relevant national principles and policies, standardize construction requirements, unify inspection method and define acceptance standard so as to ensure construction and installation quality and to achieve energy saving, material and water conservation, environmental protection and safety operation during the construction and acceptance of cleanrooms and associated controlled environment (referred to as cleanroom from Chapter 3). 1.0.2 This code is applicable to the construction and acceptance of newly-built and reconstructed, entire and assembling as well as fixed and moving cleanrooms and associated controlled environment. 1.0.3 The construction and acceptance of cleanrooms and associated controlled environment shall meet the following requirements: 1 It shall be carried out by professional qualified construction enterprise approved by competent development department according to approved documents and drawings. The constructors shall receive training and assessment on construction and acceptance specification of cleanroom; the special category of workers shall have work license and shall be supervised all over the process by supervision organization with professional supervision aptitude and specialized training. 2 Construction organization design shall be formulated before construction. During construction, different categories of workers shall be keep close coordination and carry out construction according to the specified procedure. No construction shall be carried out for engineering projects without drawings, technical requirements and construction organization design. The change file from design unit shall be provided during engineering construction to modify the design. No performance acceptance shall be carried out on engineering projects without completion drawing. 3 The specification, model, performance and technical index of all materials, equipments, finished products and semi-finished products used in projects shall meet the requirements of design and current relevant national standards, and there shall be complete legal quality evidentiary documents. Inspection must be carried out if there is any doubt on their quality. The overdue materials shall not be used any more. 4 After finishing complex procedure construction of section subitem project and engineering, it shall carry out section acceptance. If the section acceptance is unqualified, it must be reworked until qualified and shall be recorded and filed. 1.0.4 This code shall be used together with the current national standard "Unified Standard for Constructional Quality Acceptance of Building Engineering" (GB 50300).
