The Emergence of Ceramic Roof Tiles in Archaic Greek Architecture
This dissertation considers the origins of roof tiles in Greek architecture. The primary focus is the Protocorinthian tile system, including the first archaeologically dated roof from the Old Temple at Corinth as well as similar roofs from Isthmia and Delphi. The manufacturing techniques of the …

Mechanical and thermal properties of polypropylene/clay roof tiles waste (PP/CRTW) composites
The usage of clay roof tiles waste as a filler in composite was studied. Polypropylene (PP) composites of clay roof tiles wastes (CRTW) for low strength applications were prepared at filler contents 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%. Unfilled PP used as reference sample. The clay roof tiles wastes …

Methods for assessment and techniques for management of striped legless lizard Delma impar populations in South-Eastern Australia
… However, the use of artificial shelters, roof tiles in this case, is cheaper, less labour intensive and less disturbing and therefore provides an adequate survey tool. Surveys conducted in spring yielded a larger number of D. impar over a shorter survey period. An objective pictorial …

Formation of Nitrous Acid on Urban Surfaces
… ~10-5 on asphalt and concrete, ~3 x 10-6 on roof-tiles and flagstone-tiles, and ~2 x 10-5 on grass. The higher values were found to be well correlated to an enhanced BET surface. The HONO concentrations were found to scale with the relative humidity, and thus the HONO uptake coefficient is …

Influence of firing temperature on ceramic properties of kaolinitic clays from Duthuni, Limpopo Province (South Africa)
… and a close outlier for red bodies and porous tiles The DSC curve portrayed three endothermic peaks; 85 oC to 90 oC, 295 oC to 300 oC and 530 oC to 535 oC corresponding to elimination of adsorbed water, goethite dehyroxylation and formation of metakaolinite respectively. A weak exothermic was …

Wind-Borne Debris Resistance of Façades: Identification of Alternative Impact Test Requirements
Climate change effects are causing a steady increase of previous records both in terms of monetary losses and in fatality occurrence due to severe storms. The frequency and intensity of disaster events are increasing worldwide and areas that were excluded from these extreme weather scenarios in the …
