A/N : I actually quite enjoyed this one? Im writing this at night and I didn’t have much of an idea of what else to do/ where to take it, but lowkey I can see it possibly becoming an actual story rather than a one shot. Who knows, maybe if I’m feeling inspired I’ll make it into a series

Sypnosis : You’re a mechanic working late one night when someone bursts into your workshop

-ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

The fluorescent lights flickered overhead, casting long shadows across the cluttered garage. It was well past midnight, one of those rare moments when the world seemed to pause, allowing you a precious slice of personal time. Your own projects—the ones that never made it to the top of the priority list—were finally getting some attention.

Being a mechanic wasn't just a job; it was a calling. Each day brought a wild mixture of characters: stubborn old men who looked at you with skeptical eyes, convinced that youth equated to incompetence; entitled customers who argued over every dollar; self-proclaimed experts who believed YouTube tutorials made them equivalent to professional technicians. You'd seen it all—or so you thought.

The sudden crash of the workshop door made you jump, your wrench clattering against the concrete floor. A lanky figure burst in, light brown hair slightly disheveled, eyes wild with an intensity that immediately set your internal alarms ringing. Your gaze shifted towards the window, the LED sign with the words “Open” was shut off.. there was no way he actually thought the shop was open.

Before you even had the chance to protest, to tell him that right now you weren’t under working hours, blueprints exploded across your workspace like a paper hurricane, accompanied by several heavy metal boxes that looked like they'd been "borrowed" from somewhere decidedly official. Immediately, your eyebrows furrowed in confusion, who the hell was this lunatic?

You didn’t have much time to question his theatrics as he soon began to explain his plan. Something about a robot.. approximately 10 meters tall? Looking down at the prints on your desk you weren’t able to tell if this was just some geeky fascination or something that you should genuinely be worried about. Regardless, it was something way out of your budget and league. Despite your interest and knowledge on cars, you weren’t so sure it applied to.. this..

"Look man, I dunno…" you started, your voice wavering between professional skepticism and genuine confusion. "I'm a mechanic, not a manufacturer. A twenty- thirty.. something foot robot? That's way beyond the standard automotive repair."

The stranger—dressed in a vibrant red hoodie that seemed almost too casual for the plans now scattered before you—let out a low chuckle. It was the kind of laugh that suggested he knew exactly how ridiculous this all seemed, and yet, didn't seem to care one bit.

"Not asking for mass production," he said, his accent carrying a hint of something Nordic—Norwegian, maybe? "Just one. Perfect prototype. Think of it as... a special order." His hands remained casually stuffed in his hoodie pockets, but there was nothing casual about the calculation behind his eyes.

The blueprints were meticulously detailed. Intricate mechanical designs intertwined with what looked like weaponry specifications. It was.. almost scary, how someone as simple as he looked was able to acquire such things, ones of such magnitude to say the least. This wasn't just a robot; this was something more. Something potentially dangerous.

"Split the profits," he continued, watching you carefully. "Fifty-fifty. All I need is your technical expertise and this workspace for a few weeks."

Something told you this was more than a simple business proposition. The boxes of materials, the precise blueprints, the way he'd so easily found his way into a private workshop, everything screamed of a deeper, more complex story.

And yet, a part of you was intrigued. Curiosity had always been your weakness, and this stranger had just presented a puzzle too compelling to dismiss.

"Who are you?" you found yourself asking, knowing the answer would likely raise more questions than it would resolve.

The smile that crossed his face was equal parts charming and dangerous—the smile of someone who knew exactly how this conversation would end, even if you didn't.

“My name is Tord, What about you, Stranger?”

This story from Anthropocene Magazine tells us how some of the obscure research projects being conducted in labs around the world can produce some boring but environmentally stunning outcomes that can be beneficial to all of us. So be careful the next time you think "nerds." Excerpt:

A common mineral present just beneath the Earth’s crust could help to negate the carbon footprint of concrete, researchers report in the journal Royal Society Open Science. The study details a way to turn the mineral olivine, which also forms the green gemstone peridot, into an alternative for cement and other construction materials. The research team has launched a startup to commercialize their patented process.

Concrete, the most widely used material in the world, is a mix of cement, water, gravel and sand. The production of cement and concrete results in about 8 percent of the world’s carbon dioxide emissions.

Most of these emissions are generated when limestone is heated at high temperatures to produce powdery cement. The emissions come from burning fossil fuels for heat, but also from the chemical reaction itself.

Some manufacturers are reducing concrete’s emissions by replacing part of the cement with waste material such as fly ash and slag or adding other recycled materials. Studies have shown that this replacement does not reduce the strength of concrete.

Civil and environmental engineers at Imperial College London turned to olivine, a magnesium silicate mineral that is found in the rocks in the Earth’s upper mantle. The mineral naturally reacts with carbon dioxide from the air and turns into magnesium carbonate. But this process works at a very slow geological timescale.

The team wanted to see if they could speed up this carbonate-forming process. They crushed olivine samples and mixed them into sulfuric acid. This separated the silica from the olivine and created magnesium sulfate. When they bubbled carbon dioxide gas through the mixture, it reacted with the sulfate to produce magnesium carbonate, resulting in the sequestration of carbon dioxide.

The silica can be used as a cement substitute in concrete to add strength. And the magnesium carbonate can be used as a binder or filler in other low-carbon construction products such as bricks, blocks and board, the team writes in the paper.

Replacing 35 percent of regular Portland cement in concrete with the silica would give carbon-neutral cement, the researchers write. Replacing more than that could would make concrete carbon negative.

Further, they add that the olivine processing is not energy intensive and could be done electrically using renewable energy.

How to Choose the Right Grout for Mosaic Floor Tiles

Mosaic floor tiles are a stunning and timeless choice for adding visual interest and character to any space. However, the grout you choose can make or break the overall aesthetic and longevity of your mosaic tiled floor. Grout not only fills the spaces between the tiles but also plays a crucial role in protecting the tiles from moisture, dirt, and wear.

In this article, we'll guide you through the process of selecting the right grout for your mosaic floor tiles, ensuring a beautiful and long-lasting installation.

1. Understanding Grout Types

Before diving into the selection process, it's essential to understand the different types of grout available on the market. The two main categories are cementitious grout and epoxy grout.

Cementitious Grout: This traditional grout is made from a mixture of cement, sand, and water. It's widely available, affordable, and suitable for most residential applications. However, it's prone to cracking, shrinking, and discoloration over time.

Epoxy Grout: As the name suggests, epoxy grout is a resin-based product that offers superior durability, stain resistance, and color consistency. It's more expensive than cementitious grout but is highly recommended for high-traffic areas, wet environments, and applications where a seamless, uniform appearance is desired.

2. Considering Grout Color

The color of the grout can greatly impact the overall appearance of your mosaic floor tiles. When selecting a grout color, consider the following factors:

Tile Color: Choose a grout color that complements or contrasts with the tiles, depending on your desired aesthetic. Lighter grout colors can make the tiles appear more prominent, while darker shades can create a smoother, more uniform look.

Space Size: In smaller spaces, lighter grout colors can help create the illusion of a larger area, while darker shades may make the space feel cramped.

Maintenance: Lighter grout colors tend to show dirt and stains more easily, requiring more frequent cleaning. Darker grout colors can better hide imperfections but may also highlight uneven tile surfaces.

3. Evaluating Grout Performance

Beyond aesthetics, it's crucial to consider the performance requirements of the grout for your mosaic floor tiles. Here are some key factors to consider:

Stain Resistance: High-traffic areas, kitchens, and bathrooms require grout with excellent stain resistance to prevent discoloration from spills and moisture.

Flexibility: If your mosaic floor tiles are installed over a surface with potential movement, such as a concrete slab, choose a flexible grout that can accommodate slight expansions and contractions without cracking.

Chemical Resistance: For areas exposed to harsh chemicals, like pool surrounds or commercial kitchens, choose a grout that can withstand chemical exposure without degradation.

4. Installation and Maintenance Considerations

When selecting grout for your mosaic floor tiles, consider the installation process and long-term maintenance requirements:

Ease of Application: Some grouts may be more challenging to work with than others, especially in intricate mosaic patterns. Consult with professional tile installers or refer to manufacturer guidelines for application tips.

Curing Time: Different grout types have varying curing times, which can impact the overall project timeline. Plan accordingly to avoid disruptions.

Maintenance: Evaluate the cleaning and maintenance requirements for each grout type. Epoxy grouts, for example, may require specialized cleaners and techniques to maintain their appearance.

By carefully considering these factors and consulting with professionals, you can ensure that you select the grout that not only complements the beauty of your mosaic floor tiles but also provides long-lasting protection and performance. Remember, the right grout can elevate the overall aesthetic and functionality of your mosaic tiled space, making it a worthwhile investment.

You still into golf carts? Imagine riding a 1986 Machimoto to the polling place...

The "Misneyland" concept was driven by the comment that many people have trouble finding new friends after university.

I ultimately have focused less on the cart concept, because I realized that golf carts are a low-security vehicle, so they can't be used to save money if the political environment is too tolerant of theft and violent crime. It's a similar problem to public transit. This prevents the savings that could be enjoyed by middle-class people living in a medium-density golf cart town.

I estimated that unlike Elon Musk's tunnel car program, the significantly smaller size and weight of golf carts makes it much cheaper (by comparison) to build underground autonomous golf cart tunnels through a mixture of cut & cover and precast concrete units.

This would allow 8 cubic foot packages to be delivered within 15 minutes to anywhere within a town, at any time of day. However, I was not able to determine a use case to pay for this - the Internet moves data pretty quickly, but manufacturing is usually more tightly coupled and it makes less sense to be constantly shipping items that have had intermediate manufacturing done rather than complete the items on-site, or deliver them daily by semi-truck.

From Flab to Fabulous - Modern Furniture is here to Woo You

Modern Furniture is synonymous with simple and functional furniture, furniture with neat and clean lines, minus the unnecessary ornamentation and hullabaloo. The trend of adopting Modern Furniture started and came at a time, when the modernist click here to learn more movement revolutionized all aspects of art, architecture and design and paved way for modern attire in everything.

Blowing the Winds of Change

There have been many influences that spurred the modernization movement. In fact, it had come about with an evolution as well as revolution. One major revolution came about when a German architect cast away the old classical style of architecture that was prevalent during that time of the 19th century and sent shockwaves around. The product was an example of genuine functionality minus the show-off. It was like a clean shaven person clad in a plain T-shirt and jeans shouting his importance in a society of bearded, bejewelled and robed kings. The new product that was termed as Modern demonstrated that ‘form follows function’ and this appealed the masses also as it became cost effective when there is no extra unnecessary ornamentation.

The trend picked up fast though with some criticism and subsequently, has influenced the fields of art and design also. Thus, Furniture has become more refined and defined and now takes the form of Modern Furniture. If an element on a piece of furniture has a purpose, it is there, if not, it is removed. Exotic patterns, motifs and carvings have replaced by purely functional elements. It reflects the idea “live for need, not for greed” and thus comes into existence Modern Home Furniture.  This Modern Furniture is faster to manufacture, affordable and above all, functional.

New Materials Replacing the Old

With the industrial revolution, the traditional material have been shun and now replaced with durable, sturdy and cost-effective materials. •    Handmade wooden furniture and hand woven fabrics have been replaced by materials like iron, steel and glass. •    Plywood is the new wood. Solid heavy wood is replaced by plywood.

With machines able to produce products at a cheaper cost and lesser time as compared to hand made products the Modern Furniture and especially the   Modern Home Furniture has come with the added zing.

Benefits of new materials

•    light-weight •    easy to handle •    easy to accommodate in less space

The use of new material has made furniture light weight and portable. The major attraction of Modern Furniture is that it is totally different from its ancestors in terms of materials, technology and design. With plastics and metal introduced in the furniture industry, today there are thousands of choices available and it is often confusing and mystifying to choose one. Today, we even have furniture from paper, cardboard and concrete.

Global Scenario

Earlier each country had its own movements in art, architecture and design, but due to globalization, the scenario is quite a mixture of global philosophies and local manufacturing. With growing populace and space available inversely proportional to each other, the Modern Furniture sees itself as the preferred furniture as it brings along with it its appealing merits. While choosing the home furniture, a customer would want Modern Home Furniture but still prefer to customize it according to his home and appealing to his tastes. His tastes are more or less an eclectic mix of past traditions, present materials, changing cultures and above all, the weight in his pockets! And Modern furniture does the trick. Elegant, affordable, less cumbersome in space, easy to handle and maintain, customisable- these are just a few synonyms that can be associated with Modern Home Furniture making a person’s home decor fruitful and fulfilling his dream of a perfect home!

Concrete Blocks - Manufacturing, Classification & Uses

     Concrete blocks are nowadays replacing bricks in masonry construction, notably in many multi-storeyed buildings. They are available in three types namely solid, hollow and cellular, widely used for the construction of filler walls and boundary walls in RC framework.

Concrete blocks are usually made in large sizes to make blockwork faster and consume less cement in joints than the brickwork. If the percentage of the voids is more than 25%, then they are hollow blocks and blocks with voids less than 25% are only perforated blocks.

The cellular concrete blocks are generally referred to as lightweight aerated concrete blocks. All these blocks are extensively used for compound walls and non-loadbearing walls.

Hollow blocks are specially made for loadbearing walls, which are useful in reducing a dead load of masonry in buildings. Blocks can also be with cement and sand called cement-sand blocks or with cement and soil called soil-cement blocks which are of low strength and use for low-cost construction.

Manufacturing of Concrete Blocks

    BIS recommends a fineness modulus of the combined aggregate between 3.6 to 4 and coarse aggregates used are of size 6 to 12 mm. Lean mixes up to 1:8 are generally used. Concrete mix for concrete blocks should not be richer than one part of the cement to six parts of the volume of combined aggregate.

Concrete blocks can be handmade and also machine-made. The cast block is then cured in a water tank or yard for at least 14 days (water need to be changed at least every 4 days).

After curing, the blocks are dried for 4 weeks before being used in masonry construction. They should be stacked with voids in the horizontal direction to facilitate easy drying, or they should be steam cured and dried.

The whole process allows the complete shrinkage of the block to take place they are laid on the wall, which is very important for strong walls.

Classification of Concrete Blocks

Hollow concrete blocks

     Open and Closed cavity-type hollow concrete blocks are classified into three grades:

Grade A - They possess a minimum density of 1500 kg/m³ and are used for load-bearing walls.

Grade B - They have a density below 1500 kg/m¬³ and used for load-bearing walls.

Grade C - These blocks are used for non-load bearing walls and have density more than 1000 kg/m³.

All these blocks are available in decorative facings like fluted facing to provide artistic effects.

Solid concrete blocks

     They should be manufactured for specific concrete strength of 4.0 and 5.0 N/mm² in 28 days. These blocks are used as load-bearing walls and have a density of not less than 1800 kg/m³.

Paver blocks

     These blocks are solid concrete blocks of different shapes specially made for exterior ground paving on sidewalks, parking lots, driveways, petrol pumps, industrial floors, etc.

AAC Blocks

     AAC blocks refer as Autoclaved Aerated Concrete Blocks. These blocks are also termed as light-weight hollow blocks.

They are prepared as solid blocks from cement, water and materials like ground sand, pulverized fly ash together with additives to aerate and stabilize the air bubbles.

The final result is a mixture of thick liquid which is then poured into steel moulds to form large cakes. After some time, the mixture sets and ready to cut into a serious of individual blocks of required size using taut steel wires.

Very light blocks for partition and moderate-weight blocks for light loadbearing walls can be obtained from aac blocks. These blocks do not shrink on drying as the material is obtained by autoclaving.

The autoclaved cement product is crystalline, which is different from the product obtained by normal wet curing or by ordinary steam curing.

Sizes and Tolerances

The nominal dimensions of concrete block as per BIS are as follows:

 Length - 600, 500, 450 or 400 mm

 Height - 100 or 200 mm

 Width - 50, 75, 100, 150, 200, 250 or 300 mm

Actual sizes will be less than 10 mm of mortar thickness. For Concrete and Hollow concrete blocks nominal length 390 mm and height 190 mm. The thickness for loadbearing walls is 190 mm, compound walls 140 mm and for filler walls 90 mm.

These dimensions can easily be achieved in machine-made blocks than handmade blocks. The width of blocks use for load-bearing walls is 200 mm and for parapet or filler walls is 100 mm.

Points to Remember:

The mortar strength should not be more than the strength of the blocks. With high mortar strength, cracks will be less and very large, but with low mortar strength, cracks will be small and distributed.

 We should use only blocks that are cured properly for at least 14 days and dried for 4 weeks to avoid shrinkage during construction.

 We should not wet the blocks while placing in masonry construction.

 Freshly-made and uncured concrete blocks should never be allowed on the work.

 Blockwork, particularly ordinary cement sand blocks and soil-cement blocks should not be used as loadbearing walls for concrete slab roof which favours to expand and contract with temperature.

 The maximum difference in sizes allowed is ±5 mm in length and ±3 mm in height and width.

 They should be protected from rains while being stored as they absorb moisture by wetting and shrinking on drying.

     The main disadvantage of concrete blocks is shrinkage due to the movement of moisture content which is not present in bricks. As these blocks are much larger than bricks, any foundation movement will cause blockwork to crack more than the brickwork.
