"If, for any reason, I need to change one out, I take off a few screws and pop it out. Nothing major structurally has to come out. It’s almost like changing a cassette tape. You have to get into the structural mechanism to replace competing products. They didn’t think about replaceability; you have to undo what you did. With replaceability and durability, we blow them out of the water."

You’ve probably seen wood siding on the exterior of homes before, and if you really scrutinize the practice, it does seem odd. Why put wood on the outside of a building, and not even coat it with paint? How does it resist rot and decay when it’s constantly being exposed to rain and snow? The truth is that not all woods are appropriate for exterior siding, but the group of wood species we refer to as cedar is a common exception.

Using a system of cubed volumes, which contain two angles within the layout, the Two Angle House was strategically designed to provide stunning views of the ocean. Additionally, the design saw the home’s large concrete blade wall “stretched” from east to west to take advantage of optimal passive solar gain throughout. This allows the structure to not only benefit from a natural heating and lighting system, but it also reduces energy usage substantially. The roof was also equipped with solar panels to provide much of the building’s energy.

In fact, my truck to South Carolina would be the first truck loaded today.

A traditional roof rake works by extending the flat end of the rake attached to a pole to reach the roof and pulling the snow on the roof over the eaves or soffits, so the snow falls to the ground.

Estrada Concrete requested a special use permit for the plant on Bird Lane along Texas Highway 310 South Central Expressway near Simpson Stuart Road.

Nail length also is important. The correct length is double the thickness of your slates plus one inch. If the nails are the correct length, they will penetrate the roof sheathing boards but not punch through to the other side.
