Ford‚ a showroom for Ford cars. The name‚ identical with the motor industry and Ford vehicle sales‚ serviced for over 60 years. The architecture of the building is interesting as the elevators were simple horizontal bands of walls and steel framed glazing‚ and the rounded columns were set back from the external walls‚ so as to emphasise the sleek curved lines. Max Dupain photographed this building in 1938 from different and interesting angle shots‚ expressing formalist aesthetic and modernist ideas

and a low initial monthly payment can be a misleading guide to total costs (and risks). A main cause of the mortgage crisis is that borrowers did not understand the terms of their loans. Even those who tried to read the fine print felt their eyes glazing over‚ especially after their mortgage broker assured them that they had an amazing deal. Yet growing complexity on the borrowers’ side was trivial compared with what was going on at the banks. Mortgages used to be held by the banks that initiated

1. INTRODUCTION The sun is the largest source of renewable energy and this energy is abundantly available in all parts of the earth. It is in fact one of the best alternatives to the non-renewable sources of energy. Solar energy has been used since prehistoric times‚ but in a most primitive manner. Before 1970‚ some research and development was carried out in a few countries to exploit solar energy more efficiently‚ but most of this work remained mainly academic . After the dramatic rise in oil

The tank contains 25 kg of water‚ and the stirring action is applied for 1 hour. Assuming that the tank is perfectly insulated‚ calculate the change in internal energy of the water. Also calculate the rise in temperature of the water‚ assuming that the process occurs at constant volume and that cv for water may be taken as 4.18 kJ/kg.K. Problem 4: A 0.0283 m3 container is

Polishing and buffing are finishing processes for smoothing a workpiece’s surface using an abrasive and a work wheel. Technically polishing refers to processes that use an abrasive that is glued to the work wheel‚ while buffing uses a loose abrasive applied to the work wheel. Polishing is a more aggressive process while buffing is less harsh‚ which leads to a smoother‚ brighter finish.[1] A common misconception is that a polished surface has a mirror bright finish‚ however most mirror bright finishes

OPTIMIZATION OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN OF RESIDENTIAL BUNGALOW FOR GREEN RATING Abstract:- The concept of green building is so much talked about but not so much implemented on the larger scale. The main aim of optimization of architectural design is to make efficient use of resources in optimum way which includes study of renewable energy‚ embodied energy of materials‚ solar radiation incident on building‚ and water efficiency especially through rain water harvesting. This study also leads to
