This document provides information about natural and manufactured timbers. It discusses the two types of natural timber - hardwoods and softwoods. Hardwoods come from deciduous trees that lose their leaves in autumn, while softwoods come from evergreen trees that are green all year round. Examples of properties, uses and appearances are given for various hardwoods and softwoods. Manufactured boards are also described as being made by gluing wood layers or fibers together, with examples like MDF, plywood, chipboard and hardboard. Finishing and protecting wood through various methods is also outlined.

The terms “hardwood” and “softwood” are often misleading because they have no direct relation to the actual physical hardness or softness of the wood, so that a hardwood may actually be softer than a softwood.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

3. NATURAL TIMBER
There are two types of natural timber,
called hardwood and softwood. These names do
not refer to the properties of the wood: some
softwoods can be hard and some hardwoods can
be soft.
DECIDUOUS TREES LOSE
THEIR BROAD LEAVES IN
THE AUTUMN
EVERGREEN TREES ARE
GREEN ALL YEAR ROUND
AND THEY HAVE PINES
AND CONES
HARDWOODS
COME FROM
DECIDUOUS

EXPENSIVE
SOFTWOODS
COME FROM
EVERGREEN
TREES & GROW
QUICKLY
• CEDAR
• SCOTS PINE
• PARANA

straight grain which is
White to pinkish-brown in
colour

6. MATERIAL STOCK FORMS
AFFORDABLE EXPENSIVE
Timber
planks

planks)
Strip
(thin slices of
wood- 3mm)
Square
timber
Dowel
Material stock forms are the standardised sizes that different material
can be bought in.
Regulated/ all the
same.
7. Manufactured Board properties:
• make use of waste wood materials (i.e. saw dust for MDF)
• Are inexpensive so are often used instead of real woods.
• However do not look as good as real woods look.
• Often covered with a thin layer of real wood which is called veneer
this improves their appearance.
Manufactured boards
Manufactured boards are timber sheets which are produced by gluing
wood layers or wood fibres together. Manufactured boards often make use
of waste wood materials.

Most hardwoods have a higher density than most softwoods.
