Residential fire sprinklers have been shown to effectively contain and extinguish fires, saving lives and property damage. While commercial buildings have utilized sprinkler systems for over a century, only a small percentage of homes have them. Data shows that sprinklers were responsible for controlling or extinguishing fires in 6 of 13 multi-family housing fires in one county. The document argues that based on these benefits, residential sprinklers should be made mandatory through local building codes.

Residential fire sprinklers have been shown to effectively contain and extinguish fires, saving lives and property damage. While commercial buildings have utilized sprinkler systems for over a century, only recently have homes started incorporating them as well. Sprinkler systems can be included in new home construction or added later through retrofitting at relatively low cost. Data shows that sprinklers have controlled or extinguished fires in multi-family homes with minimal damage. The document argues that municipalities should require sprinkler systems in all new residential construction based on their effectiveness.
Sprinkler myths and facts
Fires in homes pose a major threat, as fires caused over 3,000 civilian deaths in 2013, with 83% occurring in homes. All model safety codes require fire sprinklers in new home construction as they are proven to effectively protect lives and property from fires. Sprinklers control fires and may extinguish them before firefighters arrive. They typically only activate the sprinkler nearest the fire, leaving the rest of the home dry. Sprinklers significantly reduce property damage and the risk of dying in a home fire.

Building Insulation is The Best Process to Save Energy
Building insulation is one of the insulation processes to protect our home, offices, commercial building from unwanted heat and keep long lasting.
Home energy information
Consumers in North America are preparing for higher energy bills this winter season due to recent spikes in costs for heating oil, electricity, natural gas, and gasoline. Energy conservation starts with home design and construction and requires making energy-efficient habits part of everyday life. Homeowners can reduce their heating bills by 50% or more through proper insulation, windows, doors, and following energy-saving techniques on a daily, monthly, and annual basis. Taking a systems approach to managing energy use ensures maximizing savings through balancing energy intake, losses, and using solar heating effectively depending on climate.

The document discusses insulation and the benefits of using P2000 insulation over traditional fiberglass insulation. It notes that fiberglass can cause health issues for installers and occupants, while P2000 is made of non-conductive and non-hazardous materials. P2000 provides effective insulation, a vapor barrier, and thermal break in one application. The document also discusses the increased risk of condensation in homes and how P2000 helps prevent this issue compared to fiberglass insulation.

Air pollution final paper
The document discusses indoor air quality during winter and the importance of proper ventilation. It notes that people spend 90% of their time indoors in winter. Poor ventilation can lead to accumulation of pollutants like dust, mold, smoke and gases. The heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems and other indoor heat sources like fireplaces need routine maintenance to ensure proper ventilation and prevent carbon monoxide poisoning, which causes the most winter-related deaths. Adopting habits like regularly opening windows, vacuuming, and going outside can improve indoor air quality when proper ventilation is not established.
Fire alarm
Nikhil Duggal constructed a fire alarm circuit for his physics project. The circuit uses a fire switch that contains a bimetallic strip to detect heat from a fire. When heat is detected, the bimetallic strip closes the circuit to activate a buzzer. Nikhil observed that the buzzer sounded when a match was held near the fire switch, and continued sounding for a time after the match was removed due to a capacitor in the circuit. He concluded that the homemade fire alarm circuit provides a reliable and low-cost solution for fire detection.

Gravity disappears in outer space, causing weightlessness and affecting various organ systems in the human body. The circulatory system is impacted as bodily fluids no longer flow down naturally. This causes blood to rush to the torso and head, known as puffy space syndrome. The musculoskeletal and nervous systems also deteriorate over time without gravity, though the body will adapt upon returning to an environment with gravity. A space suit is needed to survive in outer space, providing pressurization, mobility, temperature regulation, and other life support functions in the harsh environment.

Advocating a more flexible home electricity installation
Today, most newly built or renovated private houses are still equipped with a rather simple electricity installation, providing not much more than a series of light points, switches and power outlets throughout the building. While this so-called base case electricity installation is very robust and safe, it is being challenged by the ever increasing expectations of 21st century homeowners and occupants. Examples of increased expectations include flexible space usage, networking capabilities, automation, remote control of HVAC and other electricity powered equipment, and adaptability of the system to meet changing needs.
In this whitepaper we outline the challenges presented to the base case electricity installation and provide a guideline for installers to help them meet the increased expectations. Aspects discussed include a gradual shift towards automation-enabled systems and an activity-centred approach of installation design. We encourage installers to grasp this opportunity and become advocates of a more flexible home electricity installation. This is also in their own interest, as it is likely to make their work more interesting, satisfying and rewarding.
The whitepaper is based on interviews with a number of home electricity system installers and representatives of electric systems manufacturers ABB, Abitana, Legrand Group, Niko and Siemens. In addition, we organized five workshops with these manufacturers and with organizations such as Tecnolec, Enter vzw and CeDuBo[i]. In this whitepaper, the participants at the interviews and workshops are referred to as ‘our expert panel’.

South African Journal of Science: Writing with integrity workshop (2024)
South African Journal of Science: Writing with integrity workshop (2024)Academy of Science of South Africa
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
