Week 9

-

E-learning 

Use a slope Drip Flashing

Detailing moisture and heat

Flashing Slope

Water

Drip

Force Window

Neutralise Box gutter

-

Rain screen Capillary breaks

3 conditions for water penetrate into the house/building: -

Capillary breaks

Openings Force- moves the water into the building -

To prevent this from happening Remove openings -

The most simplest way Remove gaps that exist between windows and walls, crack Poor workmanship

Keep opening or holes away



Controlling heat and radiation

Can be done with a thermal insulation wrap which helps to stop heat transfer An example is sarking

Tutorial

sarking

This week’s tutorial, we were required to draw a three dimensional diagram of the section that we were assigned during the previous week. However, the scale does not need to be at the actual scale.

Polyethylene -

Also acts as a moisture proof barrier

-

Double triple glazing can be use but: -

Not a good insulator Only a few coats of paint

Thermal mass helps to control the heat entering the building A few examples are: -

Masonry Concrete Blinds

These materials and structure absorbs heat

-

To start off the drawing, the materials that are used are: Tracing paper Eraser Pencil Ruler

To draw the diagram, the cross section of the plan is drawn. Then vertical lines are drawn to create the 3D effect. With the understanding of the structure, details are added to the drawing to show a clearer picture of the diagram.
