The document discusses several building materials used in a project including a one-way mirror made of coated glass that allows viewing from one side only, a glass fibre-reinforced concrete wall and stairs that is strong yet lightweight, and a HI-MACS roof made primarily of acrylic resin that is easy to shape and environmentally friendly to manufacture. It also mentions a stainless steel anti-skid plate used outdoors that has a non-slip design and complements the building's gray concrete, as well as concrete flooring and pavement slabs that are durable, can withstand loads and weather, and help prevent foot traffic on grass areas.

1. One way mirror
• Glass that is coated
with a thin layer of
metal usually
aluminium
• The darker rom can
see through the
well-lit room while
the brighter will
only see it as a
mirror
• Enable my
character to
observe the public
and not being
discovered
• ¼” thick
Glass fibre-reinforced concrete wall and stairs
• Consists of fibres made of glass, synthetic substances or metal
• Durable and strong and easily pliable
• Very lightweight which is only 20% of the weight of pre-cast
concrete
• The raw concrete surface with different textures and stains
represents individuality of each human
• Fire resistant
HI-MACS® roof
• Consists mainly of acrylic resin
(polymethyl methacrylate or
PMMA) and aluminium
hydroxide obtained from
bauxite
• Simple fabrication
• Environmentally friendly
manufacturing process
• Easy to shape into desire
design
• High chemical resistance
• Durable and could withstand
being outdoor
• Clean and smooth surface giving
the design a fresh look

2. Stainless steel anti
skid plate
• Is an alloy with a
minimum of 10.5%
chromium and other
materials such as
carbon and nickel
• 250mm x 800mm in
size
• Has anti slip design on
it
• Harmony with the
greyish color of the
concrete wall
• Creates echoing sound
when walked on it
Concrete flooring and pavement slabs
• Can withstand the load of the structure
• Can withstand the outdoor weather condition and constant stepping by the public
• Environmental friendly as concrete can be recycled as aggregates for new construction
• Pavement slabs are in 600mm x 600 size
• Pavement is used to prevent excessive stepping of public on the grass
