Concrete Manhole Objective for Pictorial Signs

Rain Water Harvesting
Since June 2001, the ministry of Urban affairs and
Poverty Alleviation has made rainwater
harvesting mandatory in all new buildings with a
roof area of more than 100 sqm and in all plots
with an area of more than 1000sqm, that are
being developed
Precast concrete manholes 48-inch
diameter, see Standard Detail S/1.0,
minimum depth of four (4) feet and
maximum depth of twenty (20)
feet, measured from the rim to the
invert of the manhole. When the
manhole depth is 4 feet or less, but
not less than three (3) feet, provide
a shallow type manhole, see
Standard Detail S/3.2. Maximum
pipe size for shallow type manholes
is 12-inch diameter.
Precast concrete manholes 60-inch,
72-inch, 84-inch and 96-inch
diameter, see Standard Detail S/1.1
for 60-inch diameter manholes and
S/1.2 for 72-inch, 84-inch and 96-
inch diameter manholes. Minimum
depth of six (6) feet, measured from
the rim to the invert, for 60-inch
diameter
Landscape Design
The general objective are to ensure that
community issue and expectations are
interpreted and incorporated within the various
proposals.
To create or enhance an identiable character for
a town centre, shopping centre or other urban
space precinct.
To provide increased amenity for users and
enhanced opportunities for increased activity.
To ensure linkages with nearby areas and
neighbourhoods are fully considered in the
development of the work proposed.
To improve the safety, function access and
appearance of the area over the expected life of
the work and to provide an accessible
environment.
To provide best practice in environment
sustainability and balance needs of culture,
society, environment and the economy.

Modern smoke-detection
systems go beyond the small
device that senses smoke
and triggers the alarm
system. Intelligent smoke
detectors can differentiate
between different alarm
thresholds.
Heat detectors are another
option. They can trigger
alarms and notification
systems before smoke even
becomes a factor.
Fire Hose System
This system involves the installation of vertical riser pipe with hose connections at
strategic points throughout the building. The standpipe or riser ca-n be kept filled with
water is know as wet riser system otherwise it is known as dry riser system
• The main features of these systems includes:
• Hose & Automatic Sprinkler System
• The courtyard of the building should have at least two fire hydrant
. • The pumps will have a RPM not exceeding 2000 • These hydrants are connected to
an overhead/ storage tank for fire fighting purpose with a booster pump, and a non-
return valve near the tank and a fire pump, gate & non-return valve over the
underground storage tanks.
• The facility to boost water pressure in the riser directly from the mobile pump should
also be provided to the wet riser system.

The screen can be as simple as a wall that is painted white, or it can be a
steel truss structure with a complex finish. Originally, the movie's sound was
provided by speakers on the screen and later by individual speakers hung
from the window of each car, which were attached by wire. These systems
were superseded by the more economical and easier to maintain method
of broadcasting the soundtrack at a low output power on AM or FM radio to
be picked up by a car radio. This also allows the soundtrack to be picked up
in stereo by the audience on an in-car stereo system which is typically
higher quality and fidelity than the simple speakers used in the old systems.

• 1m of space behind the projector & at the operating side,

2.80 m high, ventilation, noise insulation to the auditorium
side.
• Film widths of 16mm, 35mm, & 70mm. • The center of the
projected beam should not deviate more than 5° horizontally.
• Picture sizes depend on the distance of the projector from
the screen, height/side ratio is 1:2:34 (cinemascope) or 1:1:66
(wide screen).
• Min. Distance of projection screen from wall is 120 cm.
• It is perforated (sound permeable).
• Large projection screens are curved.
• The auditorium should have no outside light other than
emergency lighting.
• Walls and ceilings are made from non-reflective material.
