II. Evocation (Вызов) 4. Pair work. Agree (+) or disagree (-) with the following statements about the house or put (?) if you are not sure:
1. The structural elements of the house are often called load-bearing elements or load- bearing systems. 2. The structural elements of the house must support their own weight. 3. The footing is the structural element upon which the home rests. 4. The foundation consists of the foundation wallsand other vertical elements needed to support the floor (piers and steel columns). 5. A pile can be described as a fence hammered into the ground. 6. Load-bearing walls support their own weight and partition walls support the load of the ceiling and the roof. 7. The simplest ceiling is formed by a roof truss. 8. The primary function of a pitched roof is to shed water from a dwelling in poor weather conditions.

5. Read the text and correct agree (+) or disagree (-) statements. The structure of the house The structure of the house is an extremely important part of the building as it makes the construction wear proof. The structure carries the weight of the house to its supporting element - the ground. The structural elements of the home are those which carry the weight or load of the home to the earth on which it rests. Hence, they are often called load-bearing elements or load-bearing systems. They include the footings, foundation, floor, walls, ceiling and roof. It is important to design and construct these elements properly. The fact is that they must not only support their own weight, but the weight of the ceiling and the roof. Let’s consider the component parts of the house. Footings The footing is the structural element upon which the home rests, and it is the first member of the load bearing structural systems of the home. It is also an integral part of the structure foundation upon which the first floor is built. The footings are placed under all load-bearing parts of the foundation, i.e. piers, columns, foundation walls, etc. And they are almost always made of concrete. The footing is usually formed by concrete poured into a trench and constrained by some kind of forms. Foundation Sometimes the home foundation is also the footing - as with a home built on piles driven into the ground. Sometimes the footing, the foundation, and the floor system are an organic whole - as with the monolithic slab.
Types of Foundations Concrete Foundations Wood or metal forms are set on the footings, reinforcing steel bars which strengthen the wall, and concrete is poured into the forms. Before the concrete is "set," anchor bolts are pushed into the concrete along the perimeter of the home. PILE FOUNDATIONS Piles are typically used where soils are unable to support the necessary loads with more traditional footings and they are supported with masonry or concrete foundation walls.
Floor Slabs Concrete slabs are common foundation/floor systems in many parts of the world, particularly in warmer climates with soils that are stable. Typically, building a concrete slab consists of sand, gravel, or crushed stone. The edge of the slab is insulated, typically with a rigid foam product.
Walls As far as exterior walls are concerned, they are pretty sophisticated systems! They are designed to keep the elements out, keep your conditioned air in, and provide support for your roof. Exterior walls as a system include not only the structural parts but also the siding, sheathing, insulation, and drywall, as well as the exterior doors and windows. It may also contain parts of other systems like plumbing or wiring. Most walls are constructed of lumber.
Ceiling If trusses are not used, the ceiling is constructed much like the wood floor. In fact, in a two-storey house, the ceiling of the first level is the floor of the second. The members are called ceiling joists. They rest on the walls, or on beams which span between the walls. There are some other kinds of floors. For example, ceilings can be vaulted in an infinite variety of ways. A vaulted ceiling adds volume to your rooms to create a space sense. Even flat ceilings can be adorned with a variety of textured materials and finishes. Roof Roof Trusses Roof truss design is done by engineers, specializing in this area of expertise. If your construction will be inspected by a local building official, they will want to see the truss plans before construction begins. Trusses are designed to concentrate the entire roof load at the ends of the truss. This means that the trusses actually span the distance between their two end bearing points. Although there may be walls under the trusses, they are "partition" (non-load bearing) walls. The advantages of using trusses are cost and speed and ease of installation. Trusses can be constructed to accommodate almost any roof configuration, but in a practical sense, the simpler the roof, the more attractive trusses are to use. They are ideal for a gable roof. Stick Built Roof The photo (right) shows you some of the members involved in a stick built roof. One advantage is the additional storage space you'll have in the attic.
A disadvantage may be a more complicated load carrying system throughout the house. A pitched roof is a roof for which one or more roof surfaces is pitched more than 10 degrees, and alternately a roof with two slopes that meet at a central ridge. The pitched roof is the most common type of roof construction used in new dwellings today. The primary function of a pitched roof is to shed water from a dwelling in poor weather conditions. Most pitched roofs are covered with either slate, synthetic slate, clay tiles or concrete tiles. They are usually laid upon a framework of timber rafters across which are fixed timber battens. Flat Roof A flat roof is a type of covering for a building. In contrast to the more sloped form of roof, a flat roof is horizontal or nearly horizontal. Materials that cover flat roofs should allow the water to run off freely from a very slight inclination. Traditionally flat roofs would use a tar and gravel based surface which is sufficient to prevent penetration. However, these surfaces tend to fail in colder climates, where ice dams and the like could block the flow of water.

Unit 5 BUILDING MATERIALS I. Warming up (Разминка) 1. Pair work. Read the three building material quotes and discuss the following: Which of the three quotes attracts your professional attention? Why? What is the importance of building materials in building construction in your professional opinion?
a. When we build let us think that we build forever. John Ruskin. b. “An architect must begin at the beginning… Architects must exercise well trained imagination to see in each material, either natural or compounded plastics, their own inherent style. All materials may be beautiful, their beauty much or entirely depend upon how well they are used by the architect.” – F.L. Wright. c. “Each material has its own message, and to the creative artists, its own song…. Every new material means a new form, a new use if it is used according to its nature.” – F.L. Wright.
