It's strange how a film can leave an impression on you for a lifetime. The Diving Bell and the Butterfly is one of my favorite movies of all time. I find so much inspiration in this film, I decided to make a necklace about the theme.

Trimtab is coming together! Haskell welded up the rear assembly last night.

This rear end will have an integrated electric assist system. It is designed to be modular, so once the user builds up enough fitness/confidence to ride without the assist, he/she can return the rear (triangular) portion of the frame, along with batteries, motors, etc. and run it unassisted.

Sleeve hems were placed on the t-shirts original sleeve hem.

This prototype is my first attempt at TIG welding aluminum. I am starting to think of my welding as "expressive". This weld is expressing "shit, I suck at welding."

Green Roofing with Synthetic Turf and Natural Turf Profiles

 

AirField Systems AirDrain Synthetic Drainage Layer was chosen to replace a competitive product that had not performed up to the standards which were expected. This rooftop sports field needed to be flat and playable across the entire surface without buckles and separations of the under laying drainage layer. AirDrain's patented expansion and contraction joints allow for just that. A unified drainage system that drains and acts as a shock absorption layer.

 

Benefits of AirField in a green roofing system include:

 

AirDrain creates and helps maintain a constant GMAX for artificial turf (See below)

Thickness and resin consistency of AirDrain provides uniform shock absorbency

Shock absorption reduces the strain on joints and ligaments

AirDrain is only limited by the drainage capacity of the profile above it

Installation time measured in days instead of weeks

AirDrain can be reused when the artificial turf must be replaced

Water harvesting reclamation and reuse

Helps qualify for LEED and other green building credits

A smaller carbon and development footprint with reduced site disturbance

100% vertical drainage under the entire field surface

Minimizes water related injuries / Less infill migration due to superior drainage

AirDrain is a 100% recycled product

Less infill migration due to superior drainage

G MAX Information Existing Conditions for Testing

 

Turf - 2 1/2” Slit Film, in filled with 50% Green Rubber Infill and 50% Silica Sand.

 

The drainage/shock pad and turf underlying substrate consists of a concrete deck/rooftop, coated with a waterproof membrane and 10 ounce 100% recycled polyester go-textile filter fabric.

  

The Standard Test Method for Shock-Absorbing Properties of Playing Surface Systems and Materials (ASTM F1936-98 American Football Field) testing locations and procedure were preformed. The tests were performed using a Triax 2000 A-1 Missile, tripod mounted G max registration unit(www.triax2000.com). This report presents background information on the test procedures, existing conditions, test results and observations in football, baseball, softball, soccer, lacrosse, and field hockey artificial sports fields.

   

The environmental impact of a green roof is undeniable, and adds significantly to the LEED Point system designed by the USGC in all five major areas: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection, and indoor environmental quality. Green roofing replaces the green space displaced by a building, prevents excess storm water drainage, reduces the temperature of a building and the urban heat island effect, protects and extends the useful life of a roof, and reduce energy demands. What's more, a green roof incorporating AirDrain means your design includes renewable, recycled, and locally obtained materials. We know you have a choice in designing a green roof, and we hope you consider the many benefits of AirDrain.

The Backpacker Hotel is new concept that combines the luxury of boutique hotels with the spirit of international backpacking.

  

This sustainable project on Kingsland Road Hoxton, London, in the heart of the fashionable district, 'recycles' the existing architecture adding a new public bar and shop.

  

The client requested a change of use of the former shutdown nightclub, including the reconfiguration and extension of the existing building with all the most up to date technological facilities expected by the new generation of backpackers. Paul McAneary Architects responded to the brief by proposing a ‘hybrid accommodation’ that is affordable and unique in design at the same time. With this innovative approach, the budget hostel meets the boutique hotel.

Sunshine Inn/ Bamboo House

Bamboo House is a house that combines traditional oriental architecture with new technologies. It includes a curved roof, a bamboo structure, the most advanced solar systems, temperature and humidity control systems and high level thermal insulation systems. It also has a semi-enclosed garden with bamboo walls that will have a view to Manzanares River.

 

For this competition, Tongji Team has found new uses for bamboo and solar energy in the construction of houses. They have used easily renewable bamboo in their structure with the intention of reducing CO2 emissions. This raw material is locally cultivated in China in cycles of five years.

 

Regarding energy production and consumption, they have focused on photovoltaic systems, thermal systems and innovative technology for the creation of the insulation envelope of the house. They have also used phase change material (PCM) in their air conditioning systems and in the walls covering.
