RISER

a water supply pipe that extends vertically one full storey or more

SIPHONAGE-  

when a vacuum forms in a drainpipe, sucking the water out of a fixture's P-trap, which breaks the water seal and allows sewer gases to enter your home

BLACK WATER

Waste from a water closet

BUILDING SUBDRAINE-

that portion of an underground system, which cannot drain by gravity into the building sewer.

LOOPED VENT-

use pressurized air in pipes, releasing it to let water in

FOOTING-

What supports a shear wall?

DEAD LOAD-

Compute accurately

FLAT SLAB

Reinforced concrete slab supported directly by concrete columns without the use of beams

ARMORED CABLE (TYPE AC)

a fabricated assembly of insulated conductors enclosed flexible metal sheath.

METAL CLAD CABLE (TYPE MC)

enclosed in a metallic sheath of interlocking tape of a smooth or corrugated tube.

MINERAL INSULATED CABLE (TYPE MI)

refractory mineral insulation enclosed in a liquid and gas tight continuous copper sheath.

STORAGE BATTERIES

- are used to supply emergency lighting circuits for hallways, stairways, exits and to energize police and fire alarm systems and certain types of signal systems.

RANGE AMPERAGE

ELECTRICITY

a form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles (such as electrons or protons)

DIRECT CURRENT

a current which flows at a constant time rate and in the same direction.

ALTERNATING CURRENT

a current which is periodically varying in time rate and in direction. It rises from zero to maximum, falls to zero, reverses its direction and again returns to zero.

KNIFE SWITCH

A type of air switch with a metal blade that fits between contact clips.

CIRCUIT BREAKER-

A device designed to open and close a circuit by non automatic means and to open the circuit automatically on predetermined over current without damaged to itself when properly applied within its rating

FUSE-

An overcurrent protective device with a circuit opening fusible member which is heated and severed by the passage of the overcurrent through it

TYPE A: TROPICAL CLIMATES

the koppen climate classification

. JUNE TO NOVEMBER

rainy season

DECEMBER TO MAY

dry season

PASSIVE DESIGN

design that works with environment to exclude unwanted heat or cold and take advantage of sun and breezes (including comfort conditions in the building interiors) avoiding the need for mechanical

TROPICAL CLIMATE-

in a climate. The terms “winter” and “summer” have little meaning, but in many locations, annual rhythm is provided by the occurrence of wet and dry season.

LOW THERMAL MASS

is preferable in tropical climates particularly on walls that are directly exposed to sun

CLIMATE-

A measure of the average pattern of variation in temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind, precipitation, atmospheric particle count and other meteorological variables in a given region over long periods of time.

 

TOPOGRAPHY

The most important elements of the country's weather and climate are the following EXCEPT:

▪Temperature

▪Humidity

▪Rainfall

TYPE I.-

Two pronounced seasons: dry from November to April and wet during the rest of the year.

Wind blows from the sea to the land (sea breeze).

During the day:

Wind blows from the land to the sea (land breeze)

At night:

PASSIVE COOLING

The use of passive cooling principles in the tropics results in a building that is comfortable, energy efficient and results in substantial savings in running costs of both cooling and lighting.
