2. Inlaid Marble
Is a stone that comes from limestone and has a mixture of different colors, has bands
of color, the crystals are medium to coarse, If dripped acid will make a sighing sound.
This stone will be hard and shiny if polished. This stone is commonly used as a tile
material.
3. To Inlay a Material
The technology of developing material strength for construction purposes with all its
characteristics is growing. To create materials that are stronger, weather-resistant and
lighter is an achievement to produce high-quality structural and non-structural
components of buildings.
Polymer material is an alternative building material to make building quality better.
The advantages of polymer materials are that they do not rust, are weather-resistant,
chemical-resistant, lighter, and have more manageable properties. The properties of
this material can then improve and develop the treasures of construction industry
players to show their best works.Polymer materials applied to buildings include
complementary, non-structural, semi-structural and structural materials.
Complementary materials, such as glueing plywood, patching, coatings for
decoration, or protection of materials. Meanwhile, for non-structural purposes, it is
obtained for wall coverings, floors, and vapor prevention. For structural and semi-
structural purposes, because the importance is to increase strength and rigidity,
polymer composites are developed with reinforcing materials such as fillers, fibers,
and others.
4. Shaped Domes
The dome is the tone of an architectural element that is always used. It has a shape
like a half sphere, or like a cone whose surface is curved outward.
5. Flanking Tower
Is a mediaval form of structure that shapes flanking that engineers create in order to
create fortified tower defensive platform.
6. Transverse Axis
A imaginary line,real,passing through a body, on which it revolves, or may be
supposed to revolve,a line passing through a body or system around which the parts
are symmetrically arranged,for example, the major axes of rotation are the transverse
axes passing through the shoulders and hips.
7. Sandstone
sedimentary rock whose main material consists of sand-sized minerals or rock grains
that can come from fragments of other rocks. Sandstone is often mined for use as a
construction material and sandstone is found in sedimentary basins around the world.
8. Inner/outer dome
The dome has 2 parts, inner dome and outer dome. Inner dome is the interior of a
dome to strengthen the dome layer which usually has a motif or image to beautify the
inside of a building. Inner dome is also called "intrados".
Outer dome is the exterior part of a dome which is usually designed and made of
weather-resistant materials. Outer dome is also called "extrados".
9. Tile
Is a thin object (usually in a rectangular shape) that made of ceramic, stone, metal,
baked clay, or even glass and usually used to covering roofs, floors, walls, or another
surfaces.
10. Pozzolana
Terrace or pozollan is a type of excavation material that comes from the weathering of
volcanic mineral deposits. The terrace was also called Puzolan because it was first
discovered by ancient Romans. At that time the ancient Rome made the building
using the ingredients excavated from the surface of the earth which was a subtle mix
of volcanic dust found near the city of Puzzuoli. Therefore Roman named excavation
with Pozzolan. Terrace or Puzolan contains silica, iron and aluminum elements that
do not have cement properties, but in the form of fine powder and if mixed with water
can react with calciumhydroxide at room temperature and a form of compounds that
have cement properties, namely experiencing the hardening process and not LAR.
12. Clamp
Clamp is a tool (usually made of cast metal) that applies a force to hold more than one
object tightly together. It will a temporary period after which the parts will be
separated, or they will hold together without the aid of the clamp, for example if they
have been glued or screwed.
13. To Drill Holes
Drilling requires precision and the right way when doing it. Each different medium to
be drilled requires different handling characteristics for the drilling process. For
example, how to drill a wall or concrete will be different from how to drill wood or
iron.
