This program also provides students with knowledge of Architectural Drafting, Electrical & Electronics Drafting, Mechanical Engineering Drafting, and Interior Design Drafting. Course study includes Industrial Print Reading, Portfolio Design, Construction Print Reading, and Technical Writing and Composition, which are all needed in the market

Hazardous materials can be silent killers, almost every household or workplace contains various harmful substances therefore it is important to have the basic knowledge of these contaminants, where to find them, and what to do if exposed. Asbestos is a natural occurring mineral that is used in a number of different materials. Asbestos is not a concern if left undisturbed; however renovation, reconstruction or demolition can disturb these materials and release asbestos fibers into the air. Asbestos fibers can be inhaled and become trapped in lung tissue which increases the risk for several serious diseases. Asbestos is a well recognized health hazard and is highly regulated.

The worst possible place asbestos can be is in your school. Asbestos containing products were used extensively in the construction of schools and other public buildings in the 1970’s. In 1986, Congress passed the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) to protect public and private school children and school employees from asbestos exposure. AHERA acknowledges that asbestos materials in schools that are intact generally do not pose a health risk, and includes provisions to monitor the condition of

In June 2015 Elizabeth Ann was affected with pneumonia and a cat scan confirmed that she had been contaminated with asbestos in her lungs. Her neighbor at the time while she resided at 3805 Paprika Way, in the City of Oceanside California decided to take down the ceiling referred to as popcorn ceiling from his residence. As it is known, such popcorn ceiling contains asbestos and must be removed professionally. When the owner took down the popcorn ceiling, he placed the debris between both his property and Elizabeth Ann’s rental property. It was the airborne particles that entered through her open window that infected her respiratory system.

The second important reason asbestos materials must be removed is safety. If you leave materials containing asbestos, whether next year, twenty years or hundred years, eventually the problem of the asbestos material will have to be addressed. The material can be merely covered, but eventually every home needs repair, and building supplies replaced. If the building burns, or collapses, there is a significant risk of exposure to the people who live in the home and to all the firefighters and paramedics. A good but tragic example is the many firefighters and other first

Of the four available choices for a senior project, I chose self-development. I wanted to challenge myself and see how well I could plan and complete a time-consuming project. In order to achieve this goal, I delved into 3dmodeling and design. After getting comfortable with 3dmodeling I decided to create a chess board. I enjoy playing chess equally as much as I love working with computers. This project was a married combination of my two favorite things. I was inspired to pursue 3dmodelling from many of the past (and recent) engineering classes I had taken. In the past, I took Basic Drafting and Intro to Engineering where a large majority of our assignments involves manufacturing an object using a 3dmodelling software

Asbestos Network defines asbestos as, “A disease cause by exposure to asbestos fibers.” Asbestos fibers are artificially created by humans often use during various man-made construction projects to make stable interiors to create buildings. Asbestos fibers were high in production

At the same time, however, many of the companies employing the workers had full knowledge that asbestos was dangerous and that exposure to asbestos would harm the health of many of the workers. Insulators, plasterers, electricians, pipe fitters, mechanics, iron workers, ship builders, ship workers, brick layers, carpenters, and other tradesmen are just a few examples of workers that were likely to work with asbestos on a day-to-day basis. Also at risk are the families of these workers, as the asbestos fibers may be brought into the home from the clothes, skin, or hair of the worker.

Asbestos related illnesses will continue to be a problem until all asbestos and asbestos-like materials are banned. Given the abatement processes are costly and require special training, this proves to be a very difficult process.

“Asbestos can be found in many homes, schools, and workplaces, and if it is not handled properly it poses a serious health risk,” Healey said. “Too often, children, families, and workers are exposed to airborne asbestos fibers due to shoddy or unlicensed work, and many aren’t aware of the serious

Despite being banned in Australia nowadays, asbestos can still be found in most of older construction, residential and commercial area as well as abandoned mining site. Studies show that the building workers, specifically the plumbers, gas fitters, carpenters and electricians the highest risk of getting mesothelioma, disease from asbestos fibres (Peto, J., Hodgson, J.T., Matthews, F.T., & Jacqueline, R., 1995). According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, the number of mesotheliomas ' cases are increasing and expected to reach 18000 in recent. Though the asbestos is known as hazardous material, it can only affect the health if the asbestos fibres become airborne and are inhaled. The primary route for the asbestos to enter the body is through the inhalation processes of the contaminated air (Safework Australia, 2011). Unusually, small fibrous particles of

As a mature student from a building trade background, there was an appreciation of the challenges that lay ahead returning to higher education with the

Exposure to asbestos is a significant risk factor. People who have worked in jobs where they have been exposed asbestos and family members of these workers who

This memo contains a Solidworks drawing of significant importance to the creator. The creator’s vision for this design is based on observations and beliefs taken from experiences throughout a lifetime of 21 years. As will be seen, the design is simple, yet meaningful, which makes it a prime candidate for the most awesome design. The creative process behind this design comes from inspiration through the connections of personal ideologies and the Eye of

1. The Asbestos Company is not a brand that should not be held responsible for the being culpable of the moral activities committed by Simpson and Brown. A legal entity such as the organization could not bear the issue of legal issues regarding individual misconduct. Simpson and Brown acted at their personal levels despite their concern on the organization’s objectives. As such, the company is not liable financially and morally for such acts.
