A safety sensor, designed to prevent anyone from being trapped or injured in·jure tr.v. in·jured, in·jur·ing, in·jures 1. To cause physical harm to; hurt. 2. To cause damage to; impair. 3. in automatic doors, has been launched by door-safety specialist BEA. The fail-safe and monitored 4Safe is an active infrared detector An infrared detector is a photodetector that reacts to infrared (IR) radiation. The two main types of detectors are thermal and photonic. The thermal effects of the incident IR radiation can be followed through many temperature dependent phenomena. that measures distance by triangulation triangulation: see geodesy. The use of two known coordinates to determine the location of a third. Used by ship captains for centuries to navigate on the high seas, triangulation is employed in GPS receivers to pinpoint their current location on earth. and conforms to BS 7036 (Safety at Powered Doors for Pedestrian Use). The 4Safe is unique among comparable sensors in possessing four separate detection spots. The 4Safe monitors both the full height and leading edge of the door.

Our steel systems allow the architect to use glass in areas previously thought of as unsuitable for glazing. With our systems you can have larger spans of glass, with minimal sightlines, for both vertical and roof glazing applications, without the need for supporting substructures. Applications include: fire, blast and ballistic bal·lis·tic adj. 1. a. Of or relating to the study of the dynamics of projectiles. b. Of or relating to the study of the internal action of firearms. 2. .

Interface Europe calculates the total C[O.sub.2] emissions, including the extraction and processing of raw materials, internal manufacturing and transport, sales and administration functions, product installation and maintenance, and the ultimate return and reuse of each product. Knowing the emissions profile of any purchase means it is possible to offset or balance these emissions through investments in schemes and projects. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Nova Metals Nova Metals have introduced the range of Gagecast[R], a cast metal wall surfacing available in stainless steel stainless steel: see steel. stainless steel Any of a family of alloy steels usually containing 10–30% chromium. The presence of chromium, together with low carbon content, gives remarkable resistance to corrosion and heat. , aluminium, bronze and many other alloys. Suitable for a variety of interior architectural applications, patterns offer feature high lustre lustre In mineralogy, the appearance of a mineral surface in terms of its light-reflecting qualities. Lustre depends on a mineral's refractivity (see refraction), transparency, and structure. , relief, and durability, Twenty-eight designs are standard, however custom collaboration is encouraged. Gagecast[R] can be used in many installations such as corporate and hotel receptions, car showrooms, and many other exclusive architectural requirements. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Lucite International Perspex[R] from Lucite[R] has been used to create a truly contemporary staircase as well as being used in several design features in the much celebrated Grade 2 listed Lymm Water Tower which has been called the 'Best House in Britain'. Perspex[R] from Lucite[R] features strongly in the house, having been used to create a wonderful staircase, designed and crafted by Glasgow based fabricators QD Plastics, the curved balustrades on the roof terrace and the windows at the top of the tower.

Unlike with stock selections of glass, architects and designers can now use Vanceva[R] to create almost any shade or tone of coloured laminated glass Noun 1. laminated glass - glass made with plates of plastic or resin or other material between two sheets of glass to prevent shattering safety glass, shatterproof glass glass - a brittle transparent solid with irregular atomic structure ; transparent, translucent translucent slightly penetrable by light rays. or opaque. Vanceva[R] enables you to combine the strength, security and safety benefits of laminated glass with more creative freedom to meet even the toughest design challenges.

The building, known as Godzilla, is part of a 170 000[m.sup.2] speculative development programme. Due to the high profile location of the centre, Gazeley Properties wanted a colour solution that would make the structure as visually appealing as possible and offer superior durability and performance. Following discussions with Corus, a solution was developed using Colorcoat Prisma. Six bespoke be·spoke v. Past tense and a past participle of bespeak. adj. 1. Custom-made. Said especially of clothes. 2. Making or selling custom-made clothes: a bespoke tailor. complementary colours were specified for the Godzilla building. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Tremco The latest smoothing mortar from Tremco combines rapid strength, excellent adhesion, and all round flexibility. Treadfast Unispeed has been formulated as a blend of cement and modified polymers, mixed with graded aggregates, for a product suitable for building up levels on concrete or sand/cement screeds. Supplied in 75kg plastic lined sacks, the modified cement mortar can be premixed with clean aggregate to help level depressions of up to 75mm depth. The minimum thickness of application is 6mm.
