Air Barrier
Air barrier- or known as house wrap is put up to help protect the inside of the building from outside elements before the siding is installed- Allows minimal water vapor into the house before the siding is put up
Attic VentilationSoffit vent
Soffit vent- a soffit vent is an opening under the eave of a roof that allows air to flow into the attic or space below the roof
Attic Ventilation
Ridge Vent
Ridge vent- a ridge vent is an open assembly the length of the roof at allows air to circulate in and out of the roof
Attic Ventilation
Roof Turbine
Roof turbine- roof turbines spin when a breeze blows which pulls the attic air outside
Backhoe
A backhoe is a piece of equipment the helps move dirt, gravel, and any other material on your jobsite from one place to another.
Width- 5 feet
Brick Arch
This brick arch is segmental.
Brick ArchThis brick arch is Roman because if continued would make a circle and not an elliptical.
Brick Arch with a keystone
Running BondThe running bond is made entirely of stretchers

Bulldozer
Bulldozer- a tracked tractor with a plate on the front to push large quantities of soil, gravel, rubble
Brick clad Structure
EIFS Clad structure
Stone Clad StructureThe stone structure is a running bondAnd the stone is coursed rubble
Wood Board Clad Structure
Wood Shingle Clad Structure
I believe these are wood shakes because of the relatively unsmooth surface
Wood shingles- shingles are sawn from wood blocks and have a relatively smooth surface.Wood shakes- shakes are split from wood blocks. They are less uniform in thickness
Code Requirements:Egress Window
Height- 25 in.Width- 30 in. Area- 750 sq. in. Or 5.2 sq. ft. Sill height- 27 in.
The IBC requirement call for 5.7 sq. ft. and a minimum height being no less than 24 in. and the minimum width being no less than 20 in. The sill height can be no more than 44 in. Our window doesn’t meet the net area for square feet.
Code Requirements:Stair Tread and Riser
Riser- 6 in.Tread- 11in.
Code requires a 10 in. minimum tread depth and a 7-3/4 maximum riser height
These stairs meet code because they fall above and below the required tread and riser
Concrete Control Joints
Control joint- an intentional dis-continuity of a component to allow cracking there instead of everywhere else in the structure
CMU
Three courses of brick equal the height of one CMU block
CMU- a block of hardened concrete designed to be laid in the same manner as a brick or a stone. Typical dimensions of CMU are 8 x 8 x 16
Decorative CMU:Split block

Front end loaderA front end loader is primary used for loading material onto another type of machinery. It differs from a bulldozer because it can lift and load material whereas the bulldozer can only push. It differs from a back hoe which is mainly used for digging and not just moving
Heat Pump and CompressorHeat pump-Disadvantage-inability to operate at low temperaturesAdvantage- they pay their own way
Compressor- the main focus of a compressor is to pressurize and transport liquid
InsulationRigid Board Insulation
The purpose of insulation is to insulate the air inside the building from the outside and vice-versa. It helps keep the building cool in the summer and warm in the winter
Lintel
Used to support the weight of the structure over a window or opening that isn't as strong as the rest of it
Mortar JointsRaked Joint
Mortar is 3/8 in thick.It is used on a wall around a garden areaMortar type- N
Mortar JointConcave Joint
Mortar width 3/8 in.Used on a columnEither M or S type because of the amount of load on the column
Oriented Strand BoardOSB- no veneered panel product formed by layering strands of wood in specific orientation. The wooden strips are compressed and bonded with wax or resin adhesieves

Vapor Retarder
A vapor retarder is used like a weather barrier in that its purpose it to keep vapor from entering the building outside of the insulation
Weep HoleA weep hole is used to let water escape from in betweeen the brick and the building when it enters through the mortar
