Ixora and tecoma ppt MUHAMMED ASLAM COH THRISHURAslam Muhammed
Ixora coccinea, commonly known as jungle geranium or red ixora, is an evergreen shrub native to South Asia and widely cultivated throughout Southeast Asia. It produces dense clusters of small, brightly colored flowers throughout the year that attract birds and butterflies. Propagation is through stem cuttings taken in spring. The shrub requires partial shade and well-drained soil. Several cultivars have been developed that differ in flower color and size. Ixora has traditional medicinal uses and contains antioxidative compounds.

Orchids are a diverse family of flowering plants with unique characteristics. They can be divided into types based on growth patterns (monopodial vs sympodial) and growing conditions (epiphytic, lithophytic, terrestrial). Common orchid genera include Cattleya, Cymbidium, Dendrobium, Phalaenopsis, and Paphiopedilum. Orchids can be propagated through various methods including cutting, offshoots/keikis, aerial shoots, seed, and tissue culture. Proper care involves providing appropriate light, temperature, humidity, water, nutrients, and propagation based on the specific orchid type.
This document discusses different canopy types and structures for fruit trees, with an emphasis on geometry of planting. It describes several common tree shapes including columnar, pyramidal/conical, vase-shaped, round/oval, spreading/open, and weeping. It then discusses how pruning and training can be used to establish different tree forms to increase yield, enhance fruit quality, and optimize planting density. Several specific fruit tree forms are defined such as bush, standard, pyramidal, spindlebush, cordon, espalier, and fan.

Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey ...SirmaDuztepeliler
"Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey Toward Sustainability"
The booklet of my master’s thesis at the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. (Gothenburg, Sweden)
This thesis explores the transformation of the vacated (2023) IKEA store in Kållered, Sweden, into a "Reuse Hub" addressing various user types. The project aims to create a model for circular and sustainable economic practices that promote resource efficiency, waste reduction, and a shift in societal overconsumption patterns.
Reuse, though crucial in the circular economy, is one of the least studied areas. Most materials with reuse potential, especially in the construction sector, are recycled (downcycled), causing a greater loss of resources and energy. My project addresses barriers to reuse, such as difficult access to materials, storage, and logistics issues.
Aims:
• Enhancing Access to Reclaimed Materials: Creating a hub for reclaimed construction materials for both institutional and individual needs.
• Promoting Circular Economy: Showcasing the potential and variety of reusable materials and how they can drive a circular economy.
• Fostering Community Engagement: Developing spaces for social interaction around reuse-focused stores and workshops.
• Raising Awareness: Transforming a former consumerist symbol into a center for circular practices.
Highlights:
• The project emphasizes cross-sector collaboration with producers and wholesalers to repurpose surplus materials before they enter the recycling phase.
• This project can serve as a prototype for reusing many idle commercial buildings in different scales and sizes.
• The findings indicate that transforming large vacant properties can support sustainable practices and present an economically attractive business model with high social returns at the same time.
• It highlights the potential of how sustainable practices in the construction sector can drive societal change.
