  • 1 HISTORY: the Knarr Is a Type of Viking Ship Which Serves for Long
    KNARR SCALE: 1/35 length: 440mm width: 300mm height: 400mm HISTORY: The Knarr is a type of Viking ship which serves for long trade naval business. The Knarrs were very robust and very well resist against unfavorable conditions in open sea. This model represents the similar Knarr which was found near the village of Skuldelev at Denmark and which is known as Skuldelev 1. The original was built in Norway between years 1030 and 1050 mainly from oak and pine. Length of the ship was about 16.3m and displacement about 24 tones. Recommended tool list: 1) Modeler’s knife or scalpel 2) Mini drilling machine 3) Drill bits 4) Selection of abrasive paper 5) Scissors 6) Pliers 7) Clothes pegs or crocodile clips 8) Pencil 9) Rule 10) Set of needle files 11) Sewing machine Before you begin: Before you begin to build the model it is necessary with a vengeance read building instructions and plans. Also chronology of assembly steps is necessary to keep. You check if the parts go together before you glue it respectively you make any corrections with sandpaper. During the gluing, painting, lacquering and at work with another chemical materials is necessary well ventilated in your working room. You cut the parts from sheet until actually required for fitting. You cut by knife only in direction off ward your body so that you head to injury risk. Coloring: Medieval ships were protected against influence of salt water and woodworms by a mixture of tar and thanks to it the hull of ships was a reddish-brown or brownish-black color.

  • Description of Source Water System
    CHAPTER 2 DESCRIPTION OF THE SOURCE WATER SYSTEM 2.0 Description of the Source Water System During the last 100 years, the CSD’s water system has evolved into a very complex system. It is now estimated to serve a population of 1.4 million people spread out over 370 square miles (Table 2.1). The CSD treats imported raw water and local runoff water at three City WTPs which have a combined capacity of 378 MGD. The CSD treats water by conventional technologies using coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, filtration and disinfection. Recently, all CSD water treatment plants have been modified to provide for the addition of fluoride to the potable water supply. To ensure safe and palatable water quality, the CSD collects water samples at its reservoirs, WTPs, and throughout the treated water storage and distribution system. The CSD’s use of local and imported water to meet water demand is affected by availability, cost, and water resource management policies. Imported water availability decreases the need to carry over local water for dry years in City reservoirs. CSD policy is to use local water first to reduce imported water purchases; this policy runs the risk of increased dependence on imported water during local droughts. Table 2.1 - City of San Diego General Statistics Population (2010) 1,301,621 Population (Estimated 2014) 1,381,069 Population percent change 6.1 Land Area Square Miles 370 Population Density per Square Mile 3733 Water Distribution Area Square Miles 403 Number of Service Connections (2015) 279,102 2.1 Water Sources (Figure 2.1) Most of California's water development has been dictated by the multi-year wet/dry weather cycles.
