  2. Concrete cover - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_cover

    The purpose of concrete cover is to protect the reinforcement from corrosion, fire, and other potential damage. The required concrete cover depends on several factors, including the environmental conditions to which the structure will be exposed, the size of the reinforcing steel, the concrete strength, and the type of structure being constructed.

  3. Concrete sealer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_sealer

    Topical sealers can provide visual enhancement as well as topical protection from stains and chemicals. They require a dry, clean surface during application to gain adhesion. Topical sealers may alter the coefficient of friction which can make substrates slick when wet – a condition that can be remedied by adding anti-skid materials.

  4. Building code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_code

    The main purpose of building codes is to protect public health, safety and general welfare as they relate to the construction and occupancy of buildings and structures — for example, the building codes in many countries require engineers to consider the effects of soil liquefaction in the design of new buildings.

  5. Building material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_material

    Building papers and membranes are used for many reasons in construction. One of the oldest building papers is red rosin paper which was known to be in use before 1850 and was used as an underlayment in exterior walls, roofs, and floors and for protecting a jobsite during construction.

  6. Shoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoring

    Shoring is designed to prevent collapse where shielding is only designed to protect workers when collapses occur. Concrete-structure and stone-building shoring, in these cases also referred to as falsework , provides temporary support until the concrete becomes hard and achieves the desired strength to support loads.

  7. Termite barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termite_barrier

    Aggregate barriers have also shown success when installed in bath traps or slab leave-outs. During construction and after the foundation is poured, cardboard and other debris is removed from bath trap areas and the particle barrier is installed. Application of this material protects the structure from termite intrusion in a vulnerable entry point.
