  • Sustainable Vapor Intrusion Controls – Designing an Effective Passive System
    Sustainable Vapor Intrusion Controls – Designing an Effective Passive System James R. Ash, Mark C. Ensign, William F. Simons GEI Consultants, Inc., 400 Unicorn Park Drive, Woburn MA 01801 Abstract Under certain conditions and with the appropriate design, passive systems can be successful in mitigating the vapor intrusion pathway and have the advantage of being greener and more sustainable over the long term. A successful passive vapor intrusion control system is likely to require more extensive construction efforts, particularly for an existing building, because the system requires comprehensive sealing of all vapor intrusion pathways. These efforts are likely to result in higher initial capital costs and short-term disruption to building users, but these elements may be offset by lower long-term operation and maintenance efforts and avoidance of aesthetic and other impacts on property owners that may be inherent in continuous operation of an external fan-based system. These reduced operation and maintenance requirements and impacts are also likely to make passive systems preferable to the building owners, particularly in residential applications. Documenting the effectiveness of these systems is likely to rely initially on indoor air sampling, but long-term monitoring can be limited to confirming that the systems remain intact. In this paper, we describe some of the conditions and design requirements for implementing successful passive vapor intrusion control systems at both residential and commercial buildings. We also present monitoring data collected at residential properties and a commercial office building where passive systems were successfully implemented. INTRODUCTION Under certain conditions and with the appropriate design, passive systems can be successful in mitigating the vapor intrusion pathway and have the advantage of being greener and more sustainable over the long term.

  • The Franklin Marble: One of New Jersey’S Most Famous Geologic Formations
    New Jersey Geological and Water Survey Information Circular The Franklin Marble: One of New Jersey’s Most Famous Geologic Formations Introduction 0 5 10 Miles NY Sussex County Few rocks in New Jersey are as attractive or as well known as the Franklin Marble, which displays a Franklin virtual rainbow of colors from white, PA to light gray, pale pink, orange, pale Limecrest green, or pale blue. Samples of Franklin Quarry Marble are displayed in many museum exhibits nationally and internation- ally because of its importance as host rock for the world-famous zinc-iron- manganese deposits at the Franklin and Sterling Hill mines in Sussex County. These deposits contain more than 350 minerals, of which 90 are fluorescent. If New Jersey Highlands area of ever there were a contender for the offi- detail cial state rock of New Jersey, Franklin Marble would certainly be among those at the top of the list.

  • How to Install Dry-Laid Flagstone Complete Step by Step “How-To
    How To Install Dry-Laid Flagstone Patio or Walkway Complete step by step “How-to” guide for building a dry-laid patio or walkway. Copyright © 2012 Stone Plus, Inc. How To Build A Dry Laid Flagstone Patio or Walkway As there is no single “right way” to install dry laid flagstone, we have found the following to be a solid tech- nique. Choosing Your Stone Stone for walkways and patios come in many colors, shapes, textures and sizes. When selecting the stone for your pavement, keep in mind the concept, or idea, that form fits function. When laying a dry laid patio, one should use a thicker stone that is 3/4” to 2-1/2” thick. Any thinner stone will be subject to cracking. Thinner stones are used when installing stone over an existing concrete slab. Pictured to the right is the Arizona Buff Patio flagstone. As you can see, this stone has irregular edges and may need fitting in order to get the look you desire. Pictured above: Buff Patio When installing a primary walkway or patio that has high traffic or is an entertainment area, thought should be given to selecting larger and flatter flagstone. Women in high heels, or the leg of a table and chair, find larger, flatter stones more compatible with their needs. When installing a “garden path or retreat”, the use of smaller, more irregular stone is appropriate. So when choosing a flagstone for your pavement, one should consider the purpose of the pavement. Consider the texture and size of the stone in relation to its intended pur- pose.

  • Cemetery Preservation QUICK TIPS
    Georgia’s State Historic Preservation Office IIIIIICCCeeemmmeeettteeerrryyy PPPrrreeessseeerrrvvvaaatttiiiooonnn QQQUUUIIICCCKKK TTTIIIPPPSSSIIIIII Common Monument and Gravemarker Materials Below are brief descriptions of the most common stones and monument material types found in Georgia. Stones vary in hardness and therefore in their ability to survive satisfactorily outdoors in cemeteries, as well as their ability to withstand cleaning or restoration. The Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness, created in 1812, establishes talc as the softest mineral material and diamond as the hardest. There is no need to determine the exact hardness of a stone you are working on. However, seeing how some common cemetery materials rank on the Mohs Scale can guide your choice of the best methods for working with them: Talc (see "soapstone" below) Marble Sandstone Granite Diamond 1 3-4 5 7-8 10 If identifying the type of stone is difficult, but will be important to a cemetery preservation project, referring to a stone/mineral field guide is recommended, or consulting with a geologist or other expert. Marker Material Descriptions MARBLE Marble has been used for a great many markers in historic cemeteries in Georgia. The state's marble industry dates back to the late 1830s, when outcroppings of surface marble were discovered in north Georgia. Quarrying began, and markers were carved and sold throughout the area. The Georgia marble industry still thrives today. Several different types of stone that can be polished are called marble. A true marble, though, is a metamorphic rock made up of calcium carbonate, traces of silica and iron oxides; it is rather soft and easily carved.

One would think that interest in old books showing type faces would have gone by the wayside long ago but nothing could be further from the truth. I was recently give a book by Tony Cox, a bookseller friend of mine, for bedside reading while I was visiting him in England and found the stories of type and their development fascinating (Simon Garfield. Just My Type). For those of you who have seen the film Helvetica you can relate to the impact type faces have on our lives. We are now offering you a selection of interesting specimen books and booklets that might inspire those of you doing design work or educate those of you that are doing research. And go back and reread McGrew’s American Metal Type Faces of the 20th Century and Annenberg’s Type Foundries of America and Their Catalogues (both Oak Knoll Press publications) for their invaluable information (see last page of our catalogue for more details). Happy hunting! Oak Knoll Books was founded in 1976 by Bob Fleck, a chemical engineer by training, who let his hobby get the best of him. Somehow making oil refineries more efficient using mathematics and computers paled in comparison to the joy of handling books. Oak Knoll Press, the second part of the business, was established in 1978 as a logical extension of Oak Knoll Books.

I investigate digressions and excurses on mountains, rivers, and certain myths associated aetiologically with the land, and demonstrate how Stoic physics and cosmology – in particular the concepts of cosmic (dis)order, collapse, and conflagration – play a role in the way Lucan writes about the landscape in the context of a civil war poem. Building on previous analyses of the Bellum Civile that provide background on its literary context (Ahl, 1976), on Lucan’s poetic technique (Masters, 1992), and on landscape in Roman literature (Spencer, 2010), I approach Lucan’s depiction of the natural world by focusing on the mutual effect of humanity and landscape on each other. Thus, hardships posed by the land against characters like Caesar and Cato, gloomy and threatening atmospheres, and dangerous or unusual weather phenomena all have places in my study. I also explore how Lucan’s landscapes engage with the tropes of the locus amoenus or horridus (Schiesaro, 2006) and elements of the sublime (Day, 2013).
