We will use 2 ready-mixed concrete trucks with pumping-pipe jib and 30 ready-mixed concrete supply trucks to continuously provide concrete to the pumping trucks Initially, we will use the 2 pumping trucks to pour concrete from 2 directions, from gridline axis 1 and axis F to the center of the area (Please see attached drawing to the layout plan of pumping trucks). On examination of drawings, the area inside the grid A = B &9 ~ 10 can’t be reached to by the pumping truck jib. For this specific area, we will use a trough to convey concrete from the end of piping jib to the area of concrete pouring. The 2 pumping trucks will be definitely located to not undergo any move to other places, Pumping truck 1 will be on axis E outside the ramp, pumping truck 2 will be on axis 3 outside axis D. For test sampling, on arrival of ready-mixed concrete trucks, IDT supervisors will designate at random any truck to take samples. 8.3. PRACTICAL CONVERSATION Bam thoai thong dyng HOW IS YOUR CAR?

READING VENEERS Veneers are very thin sheats or “leaves” of wood which are cut from 2 log for constructional or decorative purposes It is ironic that even though veneers of the rarest woods have been used in making some of the finest furniture ever produced, some people still regard veneering as infer-or to solid wood. However, few would disregard that veneer, whether selected for its natural color and figure or worked into floral or formal. pattems, brings @ unique quality to furniture and woodware. Today, with the widespread use of modem adhesives and stable man-made backing boards, veneered products are superior to solid wood in certain applications. With our natural resources of fine woods gradually disappearing, veneer enables us to use wood economically so e can continue to enjoy it 12,3, PRACTICAL CONVERSATION ai thdng dyng DIRECTION TO THE TOILET Chi Dirdng Dén Nha Vé Sinh Mickelle: Al, is something wrong?

READING HAND TOOLS At a time when more and more wood workers are tuming to machine tools for convenience or greater accuracy, someone coming fresh to woodwork might assume hand tools were merely relies left over from the leisurely days when crafismen were paid for the quality of their products rather than for their labour However, that simply isn’t true. A competent woodworker can often finish a job by hand in the time it takes to set up a machine for the same purpose Working by hand also gives a feel for materials that cannot be derived from operating a machine ~ the blade, for example, and how some woods are more forgiving while others show up the slightest error on the part of the woodworker Page 66 13.3, PRACTICAL CONVERSATION Dam tho: Albert: Bob: Albert.

Laminating wood was a technique known to crafismen in ancient times, but plywood is a relatively modem material first produced commercially around the mid-nineteenth century. Its panel size, stability and ease of working made it a useful material for intericr joinery and carcass construction, but it was not until the development of waterproof adhesives in the 1930s that it found a place in the construction industry. 143.

The following conversation is between Jeff - Site surveyor Martin ~ Consulting Quantity Surveyor Jeff You know, we shall need to do a lot of extra work on that profiled steel roofing to the factory. The bill of quantities clearly says that no cutting of the sheets is required, doesn’t it? Martin; Yes, that's right. Actually, I'm pretty sure the architect designed the portal frame to fit exactly three of those sheets. Je Well, I'm affaid he got it wrong, Two sheets are not far off the right size. And ‘we'll have to cut just under half a sheet length to make up the difference. Marin; Oh? Well, that’s funny, You're sure you bought the right produce? Jef Absolutely positive.

From the time excreta leaves the human body. organisms are at work breaking down organic matter and transforming its constituents When-the sewage reaches the treatment work, the principles of physics are applied in the apparatus, and the aid of bacteria may also be sought, as well as of chemicals. SLUDGE: The great majority of solid pollutants, and the converted substances they produce removed during the liquid phase of all types of water treatment, finally collect a suspensions which can vary in concentration and are known as sludge Municipal wastewater sludge: - Main characteristic Hydrophilic organic ~ - Treatment All biological Physical — biological Physical — biological - chemical ACTIVATED SLUDGE: ‘The sludge suspension in the aeration tank containing the purifying bacteria (Flora i called activated sludge (AS). Activated sludge processes essentially involve 2 phase in which the water to be purified is brought into contact with a bacterial floc in the presence of oxygen (AERATION). followed by a phase of separation from this floc (CLARIFICATION). In fact. these processes amount to an intensification of the phenomena that occur in the natural environment, The difference lies in the greater concentration of microorganism: A n @ greater OXYGEN VOLUME result — Page 101 .

READING . ENVIRONMENT Organisms exist under the influence of extemal conditions which in total constitute the environment. The physical or abiotic compofent of the environment includes all the nonliving aspects; the biotic component consists of the Organisms which inféract with each other and with their abiotic environment. Any factor that disturbs the delicate belance between the two components causes a chain’reaction that may end in drastic permanent changes The consequences of disturbing the balance of an ecosystem are well documented throughout history in the extinction of species ... the devastation of floods and earthquakes ... the depletion of natural resources ... the deaths and crop losses from disease epidemics ... and the widespread effects of pollution — the product of modem technology. While evolution documents the successes and failures of species to adapt to changing exvironments, civilization attests to the human ability to implement environmental change. In either case, it is clear that not all changes are beneficial. Environmental science is concemed with evaluating these changes, considering both natural and human activities as distinct but inseparable. The study of environmental science encompasses the fields of ecology, geophysics, geochemistry, forestry, public health, meteorology, agriculture, oceanography, soil scierice, and mining, civil, petroleum, and. power engineering. Among the problems cnfronting environmentalists are land reclamation, eutrophication, desertification, and pollution. Solutions to these problems will provide the foundation for the ultimate protection and preservation of our environment, PRACTICAL CONVERSATION - Dam thoai théng dung 21.

READING ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Environmental protection is the system of procedures which limit the impairment of the quality of water humans use, of the air they breathe, and of the land that sustains them. I: includes the means to control the physical energies of ionizing radiations, nonionizing radiations, sound, air pressure changes, and heat and cold, Human activities produce wastes that are vapors or gases, solids, liquids, or energy states. Humans seek to disperse these to the open environment of water, air, or land. The receptors are all forms of life on Earth, with people the primary concer. Three objectives. Environmental protection has three objectives, The first is to protect, people from physiological damage from pathogenic organisms, fom toxic chemicals, and from excesses of physical energies. The second is to spare humans annoyance, irritation, and discomfort from offensive conditions in water, in air, and on the land, The physical energies havea role in this second objective when there are excesses of noise, heat, cold, and even electromagnetic transmission interference disturbing radio and television reception Uncontrolled insect and rodent populations may be more a source of discomfort, disgust, and fear than a real risk of disease transmission. The evident corollary is the provision of an environment which adds to comfort, pleasure, and productivity. Air cooling for summer comfort and cleanliness of recreational areas are examples of positive actions to meet the second objective. The third objective is to-saféguard the balances in the Earth’s ecosystems and to conserve natural resources. Many people strongly advocate that this should be the primary goal of environmental’ protection. Fortunately, the three objectives are nct incompatible, although conflicts arise, The drainage of a swamp which is a breeding place for anopheline mosquito vectors of malaria obviously changes the ecosystem that has existed there, Thus there are differences of opinions on which environmental actions should be given priority when the three objectives are not compatible. 22.3, PRACTICAL CONVERSATION Dam thoai théng dung — MAKING A TOAST Nang Ly Chitc Ming Bob: The dinner was delicious!
