FURNITURE
This lab design features furniture that offers streamlines ease of movement, durability, and cost effectiveness. The student work station chairs are armless to prevent book, bag or purse straps from snagging on the furniture and causing accidents. This also reduces the overall profile of the chair so that students may move in close to each other for group work or presentations, without bulky ,chairs colliding. These chair are lightweight and may be easily moved by students with special mobility needs. The instructor’s chair follows the same design principal, but includes better material and larger construction to pamper our hand working teacher. Both the student workstation desks and the instructor’s desk follow the theme of streamlined design to add to the ease of movement in the environment without having to dance around bulky furniture. The tables are made from study, yet lightweight material, so that they may be easily moved by one or two people for equipment cleaning and maintenance. The conference table comfortable seats 16 adults, so students will be able to roll their chairs or stand around the table for “hands on†work and demonstrations. The table also provides an excellent work surface for the assembly of large projects such as group presentations. The conference table also has a center port for wiring to eliminate cords running across the work space’
The printer and scanner stands are durable, lightweight and equipped with Wheels should they need to be moved. They also provide additional shelf storage for paper and other supplies for the lab.
This lab design is created to provide to provide students with an environment that enable intensive technology work, self-study work, group work, and a Forum to watch demonstrations and lectures. It is intended to be accessible to students with special needs and designed with the safety of student as well as the equipment in mind. Its design includes easy access for maintenance, as well as room for growth. We believe this lab will serve the students well for many years to come.
2.3 MATERIALS USE FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF COMPUTER LABORATORY
2.2.1 TILES
A tiles is a manufacture piece of hard-wearing material such as ceramic, stone, meat, or even glass, generally used for covering roofs, floors walls, showers or other objects such as tabletops. Alternatively, tile can sometimes refers to similar units made from lightweight materials such as perlite, wood, and mineral wool, typically used for wall and ceiling application in another sense, a tile is a construction tile or similar object. Such the French word tile, which is, in turn the latin word tequila, meaning a roof tile composed of fired clay.
Tiles are often used to form wall and floor coverings, and can range from Simple square tiles to complex mosaics. Tiles are most often made of ceramic, Typically glazed for internal uses and unglazed for roofing, but other materials are also commonly used, such as glass, cork, concrete and other composite materials, and stone. Tiling stone is typically marble, onyx, granite or slate. Thinner tiles can be used on walls then on floors, which require more durable surfaces that will resist impacts.
2.2.1.1 TYPE OF TILES
1. ROOF TILES
Roof tiles are designed mainly to keep out rain, and are traditionally made from locally available materials such as terracotta or slate. Modern materials such as concrete and plastic are also used and some clay tiles have a water proof glaze. A large number of shapes ( or “profilesâ€)of roof tiles have evolved.
2. FLOOR TILES
These are commonly made of ceramic or stone, although recent technological advances have result in resulted in rubber or glass tiles for floors as well. Ceramic tiles may be painted and glazed. Small mosaic tiles may be laid in various patterns. Floor tiles are typically set into mortar consisting of sand, Cement and often a latex additive for extra adhesion. The space between the tiles are nowadays filled with sanded or un-sanded floor grout, but traditional Mortal was used.
