Timber can be used as a structural material for construction. It is wood that has been processed after felling trees and before use in construction. Timber is used in housing, commercial buildings, and for interior fittings. There are two main types - alternative timbers which are remanufactured and conventional woods. Timber provides advantages like flexibility, lower costs, and sustainability compared to other materials like steel. However, it is susceptible to decay if exposed to moisture and requires additional design considerations.

Small World Labs and UN Foundation Present a Girl Up Case StudySmall World Labs
Girl Up is a campaign devoted to empowering American girls to become global leaders and channel their energy and compassion to raise awareness and funds for United Nations programs that help some of the world’s hardest-to-reach adolescent girls.
The Girl Up program had strong tools for mobilizing young girls through email and fundraising. However, for broader collaboration, information sharing, and engagement building, the program relied on in-person only activities, which were expensive and hard to scale. Girl Up needed an online solution to help it engage and collaborate more effectively with its supporters online.
Learn how the United Nations Foundation implemented an online community to power its Girl Up Clubs initiative, which allowed local high school clubs run by female youth to collaborate on education, advocacy, fundraising, and mission-related activities.
In this session you’ll learn:
* How Girl Up Clubs also integrates with the Girl Up program’s existing website CMS, as well as its constituent relationship management (CRM) platform.
* How in less than one year the Girl Up Clubs online program has onboarded more than 200 new high school clubs and averages more than 3,000 member interactions per month.
* How the Girl Up Clubs initiative has effected fundraising for the UN Foundation.

Lumber is observed the most widely used building materials in the United States most especially for residential buildings. The characteristics of lumber have made it suitable for a wide range of applications with few other building materials possessing the environmental benefit of wood. Aside the fact that wood is efficient and durable, the raw materials are planted, felled and processed into engineered and dimensional lumbers for sustainable construction. Lumbers that are produced from trees come in ranges, starting from minimally processed log at a log-home building site to a well processed and engineered lumber that are largely manufactured for various uses in the building construction. The project captures the evolution of lumber as an environmentally sustainable construction material, types of engineering lumber for construction, processing of timber for lumber, the preservation and application in the United States building construction industry.

wood defects for civil engineering studentselviraandadi14
No matter what species of timber you use, you will undoubtedly come across some pieces that contain defects.
Defects may be naturally occurring or can be man-made. Natural defects can be due to many reasons such as environmental factors, growth patterns, soil composition, etc. Man-made defects can occur at many points ... from the felling of the tree, transport, storage, sawing, drying, etc.

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.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
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.

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.
2. Parts of the tree which are used for Structural Timber
3. Workers chop down trees
for heat or structure
Early logging companies
used to chop and float logs
Entire swaths of forested land
were clearedToday, logging companies
cut and replant
4. Timber
-is wood that is at any stage
between its felling and
readiness for use as a structural
material for construction or
wood pulp for paper
production
5. • housing
• commercial buildings
• although most industrial buildings
are composed of either
prefabricated steel or concrete,
wood can be used to fit out the
interior offices, build stairs and
platforms, etc.
Today, the use of timber can be found in a variety of applications:
6. • Timber is used in
loadbearing-wall
structures both as the
horizontal elements in
masonry buildings and
in all timber
configurations in which
vertical timber
elements are spaced
close together to form
wall panels.
7. Two Types of Timber Products:
• ALTERNATIVE TIMBERS-
remanufactured timbers
• CONVENTIONAL WOODS-
genuine timber
8. 1. Plastic Timber
-isn’t wood at all,
but a 100 per cent
recyclable material
that is made of
recycled plastic
made to look like
genuine wood
Alternative Timber Examples
9. 2. Fibre-reinforced
composite timber
-involves a complex
mix of refined,
blended and
compounded natural
fibres
-makes use of rice
husk, rice hull and
plastic
-actually hollow
Alternative Timber Examples
11. Trees grow in all shapes and
sizes, and of course they
come in countless different
species. Even among similar
types, they all have unique
knots and imperfections and
vary considerably in
strength, utility and value –
which is why timber comes
in different grades suitable
for distinct purposes.
Conventional Woods
12. • The I-beam with the
plywood web (b) and the
laminated beam (c) are
examples of manufactured
timber products. These
normally have better
technical properties than
plain sawn timber
elements such as that
shown in (a).
13. • Should have uniform color and
regular annual rings.
• Should have straight fibers.
• Should be sweet to smell when
freshly cut. A disagreeable smell
indicates decay in timber.
• Should be sonorous.
Requirements of a Good Timber
14. • Should be free from natural
defects.
• Should not be affected by fungi
and other insects.
• Should have firm adhesion of
fibres.
• Should be durable to resist the
atmospheric effects.
Requirements of a Good Timber
15. • Should be tough to resist the
shocks.
• Should not be split when nail is
driven into it.
• Should be well seasoned.
Requirements of a Good Timber
16. • A condition in which
timber shrinks
following a
reduction in
moisture content
due to decreasing
relative humidity
and swells if the
moisture content
increases.
MOISTURE MOVEMENT
17. • It is a process in
which the timber
must be physically
restrained to
prevent the
introduction of
permanent twists
and other
distortions
SEASONING
19. •Timber provides for flexibility of design,
and allows modifications and tweaks to
layout during the construction process.
•Wood is a lower cost raw material than
steel.
•In solid form, wood also has significant
thermal mass properties, retaining heat
from the day and releasing it at night.
ADVANTAGES
20. •Wood also acts as a humidity regulator,
absorbing moisture when humid and
desorbing moisture when the air is dry.
•Wood doesn’t rust.
•Quick construction times. Builders are
familiar with using wood, and usually
prefer it. Builders report frame
construction times of two to two and a
half times longer for steel frames.
ADVANTAGES
21. •Wood treated with the appropriate
level of preservative, and properly
maintained, can last in service for a
hundred years or more.
•Recyclable, renewable and sustainable
•Wood is a decorative material when
considered as an aesthetic material.
•It is easy to repair and maintain wood.
ADVANTAGES
22. •Susceptibility to decay of timber when
exposed to excessive moisture.
Wood is a hygroscopic material. This means that it will
adsorb surrounding condensable vapors and loses
moisture to air below the fiber saturation point.
The agents causing the deterioration and destruction
of wood fall into two categories: Biotic (biological)
and abiotic (non-biological). Biotic agents include
decay and molds, fungi, bacteria and insects. Abiotic
agents include sun, wind, water, certain chemicals and
fire.
DISADVANTAGES
23. •Additional design and engineering time.
•Combustibility of timber requires
vigilant quality control to achieve
required fire rating of separating and
compartment walls.
•Transport from resources.
DISADVANTAGES
26. The wooden observation tower at Helsinki Zoo in Finland was the winning design in a competition held for
architectural students of Helsinki University of Technology. Situated on a small island just outside the city, and
built on one of its highest hills, it provides visitors to the zoo with panoramic views over the sea and surrounding
area. LUSAS Civil & Structural was used in the design and analysis to prove the safety and structural behaviour
under imposed loading.
