  • Safety Barrier Guidelines for Residential Pools Preventing Child Drownings
    Safety Barrier Guidelines for Residential Pools Preventing Child Drownings U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission This document is in the public domain. Therefore it may be reproduced, in part or in whole, without permission by an individual or organization. However, if it is reproduced, the Commission would appreciate attribution and knowing how it is used. For further information, write: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission Office of Communications 4330 East West Highway Bethesda, Md. 20814 www.cpsc.gov CPSC is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury or death associated with the use of the thousands of consumer products under the agency’s jurisdiction. Many communities have enacted safety regulations for barriers at resi- dential swimming pools—in ground and above ground. In addition to following these laws, parents who own pools can take their own precau- tions to reduce the chances of their youngsters accessing the family or neighbors’ pools or spas without supervision. This booklet provides tips for creating and maintaining effective barriers to pools and spas. Each year, thousands of American families suffer swimming pool trage- dies—drownings and near-drownings of young children. The majority of deaths and injuries in pools and spas involve young children ages 1 to 3 and occur in residential settings. These tragedies are preventable. This U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) booklet offers guidelines for pool barriers that can help prevent most submersion incidents involving young children. This handbook is designed for use by owners, purchasers, and builders of residential pools, spas, and hot tubs. The swimming pool barrier guidelines are not a CPSC standard, nor are they mandatory requirements.

  • Techniques of Pouring a Basement Floor
    www.spinscreed.com Techniques for pouring a basement floor using the Spin Screed: In my own construction business, I have used the Spin Screed on countless basement floors in order to produce a floor that is flatter than any other screeding operations that I have tested. The floor is flatter and we are able to pour it faster with less manpower and less work than other methods. Below is a description of the method that I use to pour a basement floor using a total of four men: two rakers, a dead end man, and a live end man. Figure 1: Rope-Quick North Coupling Adapter 60 ft. Wall Line 1 Screed Bar--1/4” x 2” x 20’. We recommend the use of the Float Section A Fill Screed Support System. West East Line 2 30 ft. Wall Section B Live End Spin Motor Basement Wall 30 ft. by 60 ft. Line 3 South We begin by preparing the sub grade and establishing the elevation of the finished floor. Once this has been ac- complished, we snap a red chalk line along the interior wall of the foundation at the level of the finished basement floor. We set Float Fill supports five feet apart along line 1, line 2 and line 3 as shown in Fig. 1. The stakes in line 1 and line 3 are placed about 18 inches from the basement wall. The stakes in line 2 are placed in the center of the foundation. In the example shown, the foundation is 30 feet by 60 feet.

  • Building Permits for Finishing Basement Spaces
    TOWN OF ACTON 472 Main Street Acton, Massachusetts, 01720 Telephone (978)-929-6633 Fax (978) 264-9630 Building Department BUILDING PERMITS FOR FINISHING BASEMENT SPACES A Building Permit is required to finish basements into storage areas, recreation rooms and habitable spaces. The basement must comply with minimum standards for building code compliance. It must also comply with Board of Health regulations. The following are requirements for a typical basement project, there could be other regulations which are not addressed or are specific to your project which might apply. The greater the detail that is on the plans, the easier it will be to help you comply with applicable regulations. Recreation rooms and habitable rooms require glazing not less than 8% of the floor area. One-half of the required area of glazing shall be operable. Artificial lighting (standard electrical lighting) and mechanical ventilation (system to provide fresh air into space which doesn’t differentiate more than 10 degrees from the conditioned space) can be used to meet this requirement. Energy conservation regulations require insulation for heated or cooled spaces. Minimum finish ceiling height for a habitable space in a basement is 7 feet, storage areas are exempt. Habitable basements must have an emergency escape and rescue opening. Rooms that contain fuel burning appliances (furnaces) must supply sufficient combustion air to appliances. If room is not large enough vents can be added in walls to supplement. If combination of spaces is not enough, outside air will be required. Applications can be obtained at the Building Department. Please read and complete all applicable sections.

    INSTALLING ALLEY-GATES: PRACTICAL LESSONS FROM BURGLARY PREVENTION PROJECTS Briefing Note 2/01 Shane Johnson and Camille Loxley July 2001 “The views expressed in this briefing note are those of the authors, not necessarily those of the Home Office (nor do they reflect Government policy).” Introduction Benefits of an alley-gate Alley-gating, the installation of security gates across Reducing burglary footpath and alleyways, is a form of situational crime Results from the 1998 British Crime Survey1 showed prevention that attempts to reduce the opportunity to that 55% of burglaries with entry occurred through the commit crimes such as domestic burglary. When rear in terraced and detached/semi-detached houses. installed and properly used, alley-gates should control Moreover, an analysis of recorded crime data for the access to vulnerable target areas – usually paths or county of Merseyside shows that this pattern is alleys at the rear and to the sides of houses. Although particularly evident for terraced housing, with entry there are good reasons for thinking that alley-gates being gained via the rear of the property for around 72% should reduce burglary, there is as yet little hard of burglaries. The implication of such findings is that in evidence that they do. This will be available later in the theory, by restricting access to the rear of properties, year when evaluations of projects funded by the Crime alley-gating should have a very significant effect on Reduction Programme report their findings. In the burglary, although there are as yet no impact interim, however, the promise of alley-gating is enough evaluations of alley-gating schemes available.
