Real estate market in Europe Construction is not booming everywhere

Status: 16.06.2021 2:01 p.m.

Construction is one of the boom industries in Germany even during the crisis. But what about in other European countries? Our correspondents report that the situation there is only partially comparable.

Poland: increasing demand, increasing prices

By Jan Pallokat, ARD studio Warsaw Anyone in Poland who thought that the corona pandemic would slow down the construction industry, which has been booming in the country for years, was caught on the wrong foot at the beginning of the year. Housing construction in particular is buzzing even more; In the first quarter, developers in major cities sold 40 percent more than in the previous year and three percent more than in the previous record year of 2017. And because the supply of modern living space still lags behind demand in the country, the sales prices achieved are also rising steadily: on average by almost eight percent for new buildings and six and a half percent for used residential property. The rising prices for building materials and an increasing shortage of staff also play a role here. Because construction workers are scarce, market experts are now warning that construction sites could be paralyzed in rows during the high season in summer. The downside of the building boom: home ownership is often unaffordable for young families. Already today, 43 percent of under 35-year-olds in Poland lived with their parents, the Eurostat statistics office recently reported. This puts Poland in the top group in the EU when it comes to “Hotel Mama” and is on a similar level to Italy.

Spain: no construction boom in sight

By Reinhard Spiegelhauer, ARD studio Madrid Construction boom and Spain – wasn’t there something? Yes, Spain has actually experienced an absolutely ludicrous construction boom – but that was 20 years ago. In the nineties and noughties, the number of planned apartments practically doubled from year to year – up to the highest level in 2006 with almost 900,000 apartments. Then came the big bang: the real estate bubble burst, banks had to be bailed out, Spain rushed past bankruptcy, hundreds of thousands could no longer service their real estate loans, apartments were evicted. The market then recovered very slowly. But still, roads, lamps and park benches built in boom times are rotting in many development areas. In 2019, the year before the corona pandemic, the foundation stones were laid for a good 100,000 apartments. Since then, however, the sector has largely been paralyzed again. Unemployment fell again after peaking at around 25 percent after the euro crisis, but it again reached 15 percent during the pandemic. For young adults it is more than 30 percent. According to experience from the times of the real estate bubble, far stricter criteria now apply to the granting of loans. All of this is currently preventing any kind of construction boom in Spain.

Switzerland: mainly redevelopment and densification

By Dietrich Karl Mäurer, ARD studio Zurich Instead of a “construction boom”, the umbrella association of the Swiss construction industry, Building Switzerland, speaks of “continuously good work”. A large part of the orders are so-called consolidations and energy-efficient building renovations. But not least because of the low interest rates, large investors like to invest in construction projects such as new building complexes with rental apartments. The demand is good, although there are vacancies in some rural regions. Housing is still in short supply in cities. This is also because net immigration has recently risen again; During the pandemic, many foreigners who actually wanted to leave the country after a certain period of time in Switzerland preferred to stay – mainly because of the comparatively difficult labor market conditions in their home countries. The construction industry accounts for ten percent of Switzerland’s economic output and employs around half a million skilled workers. According to a recent economic survey, the situation in the construction industry is stable. However, the limited availability of building materials and preliminary products could become a problem. Incidentally, real estate prices in Switzerland have risen faster than they have been in eight years.

Multi-plan and fully autonomous “rapid rendezvous and docking” Compared with the Shenzhou 11 manned spacecraft and the spacecraft in front of it, a big difference between the Shenzhou 12 manned spacecraft is the introduction of the rapid rendezvous and docking of the Tianzhou cargo spacecraft in the manned spacecraft for the first time. The full-phase and fully autonomous rendezvous and docking function of the second cargo spacecraft. It is reported that according to the functional requirement that the rapid rendezvous and docking required by the mission is less than 6.5 hours (according to the official caliber), the 502 Institute of the 5th Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology Group combined with the short-distance rendezvous and docking time setting, and designed multiple sets of plans for the long-distance autonomous rendezvous. , These are fully autonomous programs. Of course, the plan can also be personalized, that is, customize on-demand through the ground, and inform the GNC system before launch, then the system will execute the whole process autonomously. Proximity rendezvous was already a fully autonomous plan at the second step of the “three-step” strategy of China’s manned space project. However, due to the new characteristics of the space station’s multiple interfaces and the backward-facing interface when there is a cargo spacecraft docked, it is a cooperative goal for backward cooperation. The occlusion and other constraints. The third step close rendezvous On the basis of the second step, the docking point rendezvous plan, the original design state and flight mode are modified, and new flight conditions are added-the direct rendezvous plan, relative to the docking point rendezvous plan, the direct rendezvous plan It takes less time and consumes less propellant. Set a point cleverly, saving time and effort This is a point in the space near the space station. It is the soul of the short-range fully autonomous direct rendezvous program. It is the crystallization of the further improvement of my country’s space rendezvous and docking technology and orbiting technology. It is also the third step of the manned space project to achieve rapid rendezvous and docking. shortcut. In order to meet the new requirements of multiple pairs of interfaces and rapid rendezvous and docking for space station operation, the three-step strategy for manned space project 502 of the Fifth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Group is based on the second step mastering automatic and manual rendezvous and docking and orbiting technologies, and the third step is In the space station phase, a new flight feature point—the midpoint of sight—is added to the rendezvous and docking mission. The mid-point aiming point is the abbreviation of “midway aiming point” for rendezvous and docking. It is the “transfer station” before the rendezvous and docking of manned spacecraft, cargo spacecraft and space station. It is located behind and below the space station. Through this point, it is the most convenient and quick to complete the connection with the space station. The rendezvous and docking of the forward, radial and backward docking interfaces has the characteristics of saving time (time) and labor (propellant consumption). The introduction of the midpoint is a manifestation of the continuous development of my country’s rendezvous and docking technology and the confidence in design and implementation. If the rendezvous and docking is likened to mountain climbing, the rearward anchoring point rendezvous method in the second step of the manned space project requires a rehearsal or rehearsal to climb several times during the formal summit. The previous summit is for the final formal summit. It is time-consuming and labor-intensive to confirm your own status and related guarantee conditions. The mid-point rendezvous method is through the “mid-point”, the match point near the top of the mountain. During the process, you can confirm the target and guarantee conditions, and dynamically adjust the climbing rhythm according to your own status until you reach the top. The time effort can save up to 40%. . Guangzhou Daily·Xinhuacheng reporter: Xiao Huanhuan, correspondent Chai Yue Guangzhou Daily·New Flower City Editor: Cai Lingyue

Her and her husband’s house is located in a densely populated area, the houses are built close together, so the land area is not much. After the second child was strong, taking advantage of her free time, she improved the soil around the fence to plant trees. Initially, Ms. Thuy planted succulents in porcelain pots placed in the house, in the yard and in the aisle. More than a year ago, she started designing fences, improving the land to see roses. Up to now, her rose garden has been more than a year, every tree is green and full of flowers. “The feeling of hand-cutting flowers planted by myself and putting them in a lovely glass is very pleasant. Every day, there is a vase of roses in the house to put in the living room or somewhere I want. sweet”, Ms. Thuy wrote on her personal page. According to Ms. Thuy, the success of growing roses is due to the right climate. Next, growing roses needs good soil and growing medium, ensuring nutrients and good drainage. Next, growers need to use fertilizers and drugs for flowers in the right way, at the right time, at the right time. Thuy’s experience is to choose fertilizers that specialize in roses, then, at the right time to fertilize. In addition, in order to prevent the plant from being attacked by pests, aphids, and red spider mites, growers must know how to take care and understand the ‘requirements’ of the plant.

Understanding customers’ thoughts, Delution’s architects creatively designed a tube house with 2 mezzanines. Help the house to receive a lot of sunlight and good air circulation so that you can save energy from lights and air conditioners without spending too much. Specifically, the 6m wide tube house is located in a densely populated residential area in Tebet, Jakarta Selatan. Homeowners want architects to be able to create many small rooms in the house and later when conditions permit, they can still build higher without affecting the original structure. At the same time, the owner wants this house to have 3 floors but if viewed from the front, it has only 2 floors and is on par with other houses in the area. Therefore, the architects decided to divide the height of the floor, one floor of this house is only half the height of ordinary houses and will call this mezzanine. Each mezzanine will be built and designed to suit the requirements and pocket of the owner. From the first mezzanine to the last mezzanine is connected by a large space, which provides natural light and air to the house. Between the spaces are wooden stairs, the main way in the house; also family members can interact and talk directly from different floors without having to raise their voice. In addition to the indoor space, the architects also made a 1-meter-wide corridor running along the house from front to back to get light and natural air sources because the indoor space has glass doors installed on the ceiling. This hallway is also the place to place the water pump, bicycle, outdoor equipment and also the second entrance to the home. The house is installed with transparent glass on the ceiling to get the light source and the hallway is a resource for the house to always be naturally ventilated. The architects also installed many drainage systems in the house premises to prevent water from entering the house when it rains because the floor of the house is lower than the street level. In the house, on the first mezzanine floor is an integrated kitchen and dining room. To avoid limited space, the dining table is made in a folding style so that it can be expanded if needed. The wooden dining table can be opened and folded to expand the space. The folding table can be unfolded as needed for mobility with limited space. The kitchen and dining room on the first mezzanine floor can be seen through the bottom glass under the second mezzanine façade, so the people on the first mezzanine can see if anyone has come to the house. Each floor of the house is about the same height as a regular mezzanine. For the front area of ​​the house, the architect made the upper half of the house protrude 2.5m so that the first floor serves as a parking space and outdoor seating space. On the second floor, using a large curtained glass panel on the façade as the main bathroom, it also becomes an interesting facade element. The courtyard in front of the house. The bedroom space uses elegant and elegant white colors. The bottom glass panel at the foot of the first floor facade helps people inside the house to know if someone is outside without having to open the door. 1st floor design (1: Garden;

However, behind the bridge is a touching story about the love of a couple outside the sixties. Trieu Chan Thu, 60, said he was very surprised when he became widely known, even more did not expect to become an idol of young people one day. Trieu said he and his wife Yen Ai Duy, 62, got married in the 1980s. The two have two children, a son and a daughter. When their daughter was 4 years old, Trieu’s family moved to their current residence. In front of their house is a river 20 meters wide. The village of Lieu Ti Pha where the family lived is surrounded by hills. More than two-thirds of the arable land in the village is located on the hillside facing the river. The bridge Mr. Zhao built for his wife is famous throughout Chinese social networks. (Picture: 163) When Trieu and his wife went to work in the fields, they had to walk nearly 2 km or wade across the river. On a summer day in 2001, when the couple waded into the river, carrying a basket of corn home, Mrs. Yen unfortunately tripped. Loving his wife, Trieu vowed to build a bridge for his wife to travel less hard. Two years later, Trieu officially started work. “The first few days, he always left early and left late. He used a two-wheeler to pull the stones home. After pulling back, he had to work. But during the process, he did not say what he planned to do. He just told me he wanted to build a bridge.” Yen recalls. Due to inexperience, building a bridge with a farmer like Trieu is not easy. The hardest part is the preparation of materials, which alone takes a whole year. Trieu had to choose rocks on the mountain, then use a hammer and drill to break up the tens of tons of rocks, load them on a trolley, and then go home to grind them into shape. Seeing her husband struggling, Yen offered to help. She took on the task of loading ice into the car, and at the same time pushed the stone truck home with her husband. When he had enough stones, Mr. Trieu began to move on to the design stage. First, he spent more than ten days leveling the rocks on both sides of the river. He then built two piers, erecting an arched wooden frame between the pillars before gluing stones to the frame. He filled the gaps between the large rocks with smaller stones. Finally, Zhao removed the wooden frame. After the stone bridge was completed, local officials came to survey and evaluate, and at the same time proposed to make more railings. (Picture: 163) During the five years, except for rainy days and snowy days, Zhao never rested. Even on Tet, he will only rest on the 1st and resume work on the 2nd. In the fall of 2008, the stone bridge built of 20,000 stones was completed in the joy of the couple. Trieu shared that the hammer he borrowed from a relative to cut the stone was halved after these 5 years. The households in the village are also very excited because thanks to the bridge, they no longer have to wade through the river as hard as before. Currently, Mr. Zhao, even though he is over 60 years old, still works at a construction site in Shijiazhuang. He only comes home once a month. Trieu said, every time he crosses the stone bridge in front of his house, he feels very satisfied. For Ms. Yen, although she doesn’t see Mr. Trieu every day, every time she looks at the bridge, she remembers her husband. “This life, that’s more than enough”, b Yen shared.

Typical 4-level U-shaped house 4-level U-shaped houses usually have the main door in the middle of the front of the house and indent while the right and left sides of the house protrude like two sides of the letter U. This design is most suitable for rural houses and houses. There is a large area of ​​land, so families with small and flat areas will not be suitable for this model. 4-level U-shaped houses with Thai roofs are popular in both the city and the countryside Normally, U-shaped houses are built in the form of 4-level houses, 1-storey houses, 2-storey houses with many different styles. The three sides of the U-shaped level 4 house are adjacent to each other and share the same front yard; This type of house architecture creates airy, easy air circulation, making the house cooler. At the same time, the U-shaped house design creates balance and squareness, so homeowners will easily divide the functional room areas; At the same time, everyone in the house can easily observe from room to room. A 4-level u-shaped house not only ensures aesthetics but also helps many households save costs thanks to a scientific way of dividing functions while still ensuring the living space of the whole family. In addition, if you want to save costs, instead of building a 4-level house with a Thai roof, homeowners can choose to build a 4-level house with corrugated iron and tile roofs; These two types of roofs give the house a traditional beauty and if skillfully combined with many details, homeowners will easily create impressive architecture level 4 houses without too much expense. . Level 4 letter L Besides U-shaped houses, level 4 houses also have L-shaped houses; These are houses built in rectangular shape, in which, the horizontal area will be shorter than the length of the house. Many people choose this design model because it both saves space and creates a space to help catch the sun and wind into the house. In addition, the gap created by the L-shaped design can also be arranged into a garden area or a parking space. Popular L-level houses Compared to the tube house design, the L-shaped house will have a much higher use efficiency. Therefore, today L-shaped houses are a favorite architectural design and built in many places, from rural areas to cities. This model overcomes most of the disadvantages when building a house on a small and narrow land area. Because it has many advantages such as turning the design of a 1-facade house into a 2-facade house, creating an airy and comfortable space for people living inside. Allows creating a garden corner that can be used as a parking space, entertainment and entertainment area for homeowners. All function rooms can open windows and balconies to receive sunlight and natural air. Design and construction time is much faster than multi-storey house designs.

Tran Hoang Na Bridge is in danger of breaking the schedule. Reasonable proposal Up to this point, Traffic Construction Corporation 1 (Cienco1), the main contractor for the construction of Package CT3 – PW – 2.4, construction of Tran Hoang Na Bridge under the City Development Project. Can Tho and enhancing urban adaptability, using World Bank (WB) loans are still waiting for a response from the City’s ODA Construction Investment Project Management Board. Can Tho City (PMU ODA Can Tho City) on the proposal to replace the subcontractor for the steel beam structure of the main Tran Hoang Na bridge. The Department of Construction Management and Quality of Traffic Works (Ministry of Transport) said that the addition of construction subcontractors is very normal in traffic projects and is within the authority of the main contractor if the contractor additional contractors to meet the capacity and experience of construction. Previously, on June 7, 2021, Mr. Dinh Ngoc Vuong, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Cienco1, term 2019 – 2024 had Document No. 341/2021/CV – TCT sent to PMU ODA City. Can Tho would like to replace the subcontractor performing steel structure processing in Package CT3 – PW – 2.4, building Tran Hoang Na bridge. Cienco1 said that in the process of negotiating the contract for Package CT3 – PW – 2.4 between Cienco1’s Board of Directors, term 2014 – 2019 and PMU ODA City. Can Tho, the main contractor has proposed Nam Anh Technology Construction Equipment Co., Ltd. to assume the role of a subcontractor to supply and manufacture steel arches and steel beams. However, through the actual inspection, the incumbent leader of Cienco1 discovered that Nam Anh Company is just an intermediary (commercial) unit without factories, engineers and technical workers with direct production experience. , as well as do not own construction machinery and equipment. “In order to ensure the quality of the work and the progress of the project, the main contractor consortium would like to replace Nam Anh Company with a unit with real experience and capacity in the field of beam structure production and construction. steel bridge Tran Hoang Na. This is a necessary job to ensure the progress and quality of the work,” Vuong emphasized. It is known that the bidding package CT3 – PW – 2.4 has the goal of building Tran Hoang Na bridge crossing the Can Tho river, 586.9 m long, 23 m wide at the main span (4 lanes), of which the main bridge is built. arch bridge design includes 3 spans of steel structure, span diagram 49.25+150+49.25m. Cienco1 – Bridge 14 Joint Stock Company is the winning contractor for construction with the winning bid price of VND 791.4 billion. According to the agreement with the leaders of Cienco1 for the 2014 – 2019 term, Nam Anh Company was assigned to process and install the main bridge steel arch with a value of about VND 99 billion. According to the original plan, Package CT3 – PW – 2.4, construction time of Tran Hoang Na bridge took 34.4 months, but to be in line with the agreement to borrow PMU ODA capital in Ho Chi Minh City. Can Tho negotiated with the contractor to shorten the construction schedule with the completion time of 22 months. In order to meet the schedule that has been shortened by nearly one third compared to the bidding documents, at the beginning of August 2020, Cienco1 had Document No. 646/TCT – KH requesting PMU ODA TP. Can Tho considers adding 3 subcontractors to the Package CT3 – PW – 2.4, to build Tran Hoang Na Bridge, which are Thanh Long Group Joint Stock Company, Van Cuong – Vinawaco, and Waterway Maintenance Management Joint Stock Company. No. 12. In which, Thanh Long is recommended to additionally undertake the processing of 40% of the volume of steel arch structure. All main materials and erection are still undertaken by Cienco1. “The addition of Thanh Long is necessary to shorten the construction schedule of the Package”, Document No. 646 of Cienco1 said. Concerns of pmu oda TP. need poetry without foundation Talking to a reporter of the Investment Newspaper, a leader of the Department of Construction and Quality Management of Traffic Works (Ministry of Transport) said that the addition of construction subcontractors is very normal in traffic projects. and is within the competence of the main contractor if the additional contractor is capable of construction experience; the subcontractor’s volume does not exceed the contract rate. Previously, the Procurement Management Department (Ministry of Planning and Investment) also had an opinion that the addition of a subcontractor of Cienco 1 was not against the law. In Document No. 201/QLDT-CS dated February 22, 2021, the Procurement Management Department said: If there are no prohibitions in the donor’s instructions, bidding documents, and contracts signed between the parties. Regarding the change in the percentage of the subcontractor’s workload, the addition of the subcontractor after the contract has been signed, the main contractor’s request to add more subcontractors, increase the rate of using subcontractors from 40.81% to 49.57% (not exceeding the maximum rate of using subcontractors specified in the bidding documents as 50%) to implement the bidding package to ensure shortening the contract schedule from 34 months down to 22 months is not against the sponsor’s regulations. It is known that in the documents rejecting the proposal to add subcontractors to the construction of steel structure fabrication items of Cienco1, PMU ODA TP. According to Can Tho, the arch and steel beam structure system of Tran Hoang Na bridge is a complex structural system with seamless requirements, high mechanical precision, and strict and concentrated quality management requirements. Therefore, if the processing is done by 2 units, it will give rise to technical risks such as not ensuring the synchronization; does not guarantee compliance with the test installation procedure. However, Cienco1 said that the above concern of PMU ODA City. Can Tho is unfounded, because the main contractor has specifically divided each detailed scope of work for two subcontractors, Nam Anh and Thanh Long, to ensure the construction meets the schedule as well as the synchronization. of texture. “With experience in management, operation and quality control, art through many similar projects, Cienco1 is committed to completing the bidding package to ensure the quality of art according to the standards of the project”, representative of the contractor. main said. By PMU ODA City. Can Tho continues to have concerns about uniformity, Cienco1 has decided to replace subcontractor Nam Anh with another unit with experience in manufacturing and installing traffic and civil steel beam structures. It is worth mentioning that the current PMU ODA City. Can Tho has not yet responded to the proposal to replace Nam Anh subcontractor while the construction progress of Package CT3 – PW – 2.4, construction of Tran Hoang Na bridge is very urgent. Investment Newspaper also contacted Mr. Bui Thai Thuong, Deputy Director of PMU ODA City. Can Tho, who is directly in charge of Package CT3 – PW – 2.4 but also did not receive a response.

Scarcity also in the countryside Sought-after building land

Status: 10.06.2021 10:24 a.m.

For a long time, rural regions were considered the ideal place to realize the dream of an affordable home. In the meantime, not only have the construction costs increased. Finding a plot of land is often difficult. From Iris Völlnagel, SWR Sometimes Dirk Gaul-Roßkopf would like to be able to do magic. The mayor of Planig in Rhineland-Palatinate receives at least three inquiries per week, mainly from young families. You are looking for an apartment or a building plot. Many of them come from or live nearby. There are now around 100 inquiries piling up on the mayor’s desk. He would like to offer the families a home in the district of Bad Kreuznach, which has almost 3,000 inhabitants. From his point of view, the place has a lot to offer: many associations, two daycare centers, one elementary school. A train stop is to come in 2027 and the cities of Mainz and Wiesbaden can be reached in less than 40 minutes via the motorway. “That is why it is very important that the young people can stay here and that others settle down.”

Lack of living space – a nationwide problem

Only what to do when there is neither affordable housing nor building space? A problem that now exists all over Germany, especially in the larger cities and metropolitan areas. Many apartments in Germany are considered overcrowded. This means that an apartment has too few rooms in relation to the number of people. According to a survey by the Federal Statistical Office, this applied to 6.4 million people in 2019.

Every week the mayor Gaul-Roßkopf receives several inquiries from interested parties for building plots. Image: Iris Völlnagel In 2018, the federal government decided made their residential summit to have 1.5 million new apartments built in the current legislative period. That would have been around 375,000 per year. According to the latest figures from the Federal Statistical Office, a good 306,000 apartments were completed in 2020, around 293,000 in 2019 and around 287,000 in 2018.

Sought-after building land

But it’s not just about apartments, but also about the space to build. In the center of Planig there are ten building plots that would be ideal as building sites. “Ideal building plots, that would give at least three to four homes,” says Gaul-Roßkopf as he walks through the town. He has spoken to the owners several times, but they neither want to sell nor build on it. This is also a problem in many cities. The federal government tried to counter this with the building land modernization law. It is intended to strengthen the municipalities’ right of first refusal. For example, the law stipulated that in areas with tense housing markets, municipalities would be given more time and opportunities to purchase land or buildings for sale themselves in order to then build new apartments. Sounds good, but is of no use in practice, says Gaul-Roßkopf. “Where should a municipality like us, which is struggling with a budget freeze, still spend money on building land?”

Mayor Gaul-Roßkopf has high hopes for an ongoing construction project in Planig. Image: Iris Völlnagel

Future in plan

The mayor Gaul-Roßkopf is therefore placing a lot of hope in a new construction project. At the entrance to the community, several blocks with two-story single-family houses are being built on 4800 square meters. Most of the objects have already been sold, costs: from 300,000 euros. In addition, the community on the outskirts is in the process of developing a new development area. “The further we go outside, the more expensive it gets. Because wherever roads and everything have to be made, the price of land will also go up,” said the mayor. Compared to some big cities, the prices in Planig may still be cheap. But the dream of a cheap country apartment is quickly over.

The meeting also emphasized the importance of having a deep understanding of the importance of doing a good job in 5G security, effectively grasping the characteristics of the stage, innovation, and complexity of 5G development and evolution, planning and collaborative innovation as a whole, and integrating security concepts and measures throughout 5G. Plan all aspects of the entire process of construction and integration of applications to achieve synchronization of 5G development and security.

The reason why 5G security is so important is that, on the one hand, the value brought by 5G is not simply to allow consumers to watch videos faster on mobile phones, but to create for the age of the industrial Internet and the Internet of Things. “In the future, a large number of scenarios will be transferred to 5G, and more critical infrastructure and important applications will also be built on 5G.” 360 security experts said.

On the other hand, 5G accelerates the interconnection of all things, opening up the virtual world and the physical world, so that attacks that were only in the virtual world in the past can turn cyber attacks into harm to the physical world through the Internet of Things, leading to social shutdowns, factory shutdowns, and large-scale Area power outages, this hazard far exceeds the intrusion of viruses and Trojan horses today.

“When tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of IoT devices are connected via 5G, we must consider how to ensure their security.” 360 security experts said. He pointed out that 5G specifically faces six cyber security challenges. First, the core network modules of 5G are more complex, and there will be more security issues when building private networks in conjunction with MEC; second, low-latency services expand the attack surface; third, large-connection services make 5G a high level of hacker attacks. Value goals; fourth, network slicing technology makes the network boundary blurred; fifth, the problem of pseudo base stations still exists; sixth, higher requirements for the protection of user location privacy.

Therefore, escorting 5G security is imminent. It is reported that 360 has discovered and assisted in repairing the world’s first 4G network protocol vulnerability, which allows attackers to hijack text messages and voice calls from any 4G terminal. This work makes 360 the first security team to enter the Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) Mobile Security Hall of Fame.

In the direction of 5G security, 360 conducts research from four aspects: terminal layer, network layer, edge layer, and platform application layer, and proposes corresponding security deployment plans. In 2020, 360 participated in the establishment of the power 5G application security management technology project in cooperation with the Electric Power Research Institute, and conducted in-depth research based on the key technologies of 5G regulatory business security protection.

At present, 360 has built a 5G open source platform to realize NSA’s terminal access and business data transmission. The follow-up will rely on the boofuzz ​​fuzzing test framework for protocol conformance testing. After automatically sending a mutation message each time, for different monitoring APIs, the current device status can be observed in real time through the protocol monitoring window to determine whether the device is abnormal. The tool can be deployed in private networks such as corporate campuses to cooperate with multi-network and multi-standard drive test systems to discover device 5G module protocol vulnerabilities.

Solutions against heat Planning solution In the past, our ancestors had a saying: “Get a gentle wife to make a house facing south”. It is a very natural and simple way of planning to avoid the direction that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The south direction is the direction to catch the cool wind, avoiding the radiation of the sun. Of course it is a folk house in the village-rural structure. Modern urban areas depend on many other factors, so it is not possible to completely choose the direction for the project. This is not to say that the direction is dependent. Where possible, the orientation of the building should be optimized. The Vietnamese standard on heat protection for houses clearly states: “For houses, try to arrange so that the west-east side of the house has the smallest surface area to limit solar radiation”. As with clusters of works or complexes of works, it is necessary to design a reasonable total ground, giving priority to good orientation for mainstream works, works with higher heat resistance requirements such as living and working places. Environmental and ecological solutions This solution is associated with the planning solution. This is also a solution that our ancestors have applied very thoroughly in traditional architecture. Trees, water surface are always indispensable elements, accompanying the architecture. Trees create shade, prevent and cover architectural surfaces from solar radiation. The water surface (pond, lake, aquarium …) and green trees regulate the climate, making the environment cooler and cleaner. Under conditions of unsaturated air humidity, the water surface always has the phenomenon of evaporation. Water evaporation is an endothermic process, so it causes the ambient temperature to drop. Trees and water surface are attached to natural land; All have low emissivity, which are effective factors for overall heat resistance, with a large range of influence. Currently, in many urban areas, the ratio of trees, water surface to construction works is at an alarming rate, plus other areas are concretized at a high level (yard, summer, parking lot). …). The surfaces of these materials have high emissivity, causing the air environment to heat up significantly. Architectural solutions This is considered the broadest and most flexible solution. The architectural solution is the combination of the ground and the building block, the design of a reasonable cover structure to limit the surface exposed to the sun – avoid radiation, or reduce the heat conduction in the material, enhance thermal convection. The basic architectural solutions are as follows: Reasonable ground layout, prioritizing main spaces to avoid contact with sun-catching surfaces; push the extra spaces such as stairs, storage, toilet to that side. Create setbacks, negative spaces such as halls, loggias, technical slots, etc. to avoid solar radiation entering the main space surface. Use side shading structures installed outside the enclosure (walls) to reduce radiation and heat conduction. In traditional folk architecture, many places have a bamboo mat on the veranda. This element has been applied a lot in modern architecture with different forms and different materials. Facade complex with “rigid structures” to block the sun; attached to the bearing structure and cover. Usually it is an umbrella, vertical and horizontal sunshades. In the 70-80s, this type of architecture was very developed – especially in the category of administrative and office buildings. Those designs are carefully studied in terms of architectural physics according to the climate and solar chart of each locality. Build thick walls, box walls (hollow), use insulation materials (hollow bricks, insulation panels, 3D panels, aerated aggregate concrete…) for the covering structure. The door design is reasonable in terms of location and materials. These solutions are all based on the principle of reducing radiation and conduction of heat from the outside. Use heat-resistant materials for roofs such as woven panels, brick holes, corrugated iron roofs (for flat and concrete roofs), use heat-insulated false ceilings (for sloping, tiled roofs). This solution must pay special attention to the problem of ventilation for the air mass between the two roof layers. Reduce the emissivity of the building surface with plants, such as growing vines on the wall, garden design – water surface on the roof. This is a pretty good aesthetic solution, but there are certain changes over time. Organize the premises, design the location and structure the door reasonably; design courtyard, skylight to enhance air convection. The goal is for the hot air to escape up and out, making room for the lower heat mass. Technical solution Air conditioners (Air conditioners): Considered modern, and easy to deploy applications. However, air conditioners also reveal certain disadvantages. First of all, this solution consumes significant energy resources, and affects the environment. According to the principle of thermal balance, to reduce the temperature in the room, it increases the outside temperature by the same amount of heat. Besides, air conditioners are difficult to meet for open spaces, too large spaces. Ventilation: In addition to natural convection, forced ventilation is considered an effective solution to combat heat when natural convection is not effective. Properly designed ventilation systems will contribute to heat resistance, and should be taken advantage of – combined with architectural solutions such as skylights. Spraying water, misting: Misting systems have recently been deployed to many applications, in public spaces such as restaurants, and even houses. Spraying water and mist creates the phenomenon of evaporating water and collecting heat, while enhancing air convection. In addition, the pressure of water spray, mist creates cool air movement (will be discussed in the next section). In addition, homeowners can also use specialized heat-resistant paint for the surface of the building, which is also an effective anti-heat solution.

Hugo Súissas shows off his perspective and creativity through photos posted on his personal Instagram. Currently, his social networking site has 128,000 followers. Each photo conveys playfulness and an interesting message. In the picture, the Portuguese photographer impressed viewers when he extended his hand to “support” the statue of King José I riding an equestrian placed at the famous Praca do Comercio square. In addition to posing flexibly, making himself like a lively piece of the works, Hugo Súissas also uses familiar objects combined with unique arrangement ideas to “transform” each architectural work according to novel perspective. Sydney Opera House is a cultural and tourist icon of Australia. Hugo checked-in this place with a book that made “shells” look like the pages of a book being opened. Similarly, the Belém Tower fortress in the capital Lisbon was transformed into a giant sand castle. Praca do Comercio, the magnificent square in Lisbon, continues to be the inspiration for Hugo to create artistic photos. Three sides of the square are surrounded by yellow buildings in the Pombaline architectural style. The photographer creates a visual effect with the viewer when using an antique key combined in the frame and turning the gate into a lock. In addition, this is also the context for Hugo to create the image of a light bulb. The Eiffel Tower (France), the symbol of the “capital of light”, is associated with a clothespin. The Millennium Wheel (UK) located on the banks of the Thames became a giant pizza with 2 remaining pieces of cake through the arrangement of the male photographer. The 25 de Abril suspension bridge spans the River Tejo, connecting Lisbon with Almada (Portugal). The bridge has a design quite similar to the Golden Gate (Golden Gate Bridge) in the US. With his perspective, Hugo turned this building into a clothes drying plant. A pedestrian and bicycle bridge in Düsseldorf (Germany) was “turned” into a clothes hanger by him. With a rich imagination, Hugo associated the colorful buildings by the canal in Amsterdam (Netherlands) with luminous pens. El Castillo, a top tourist attraction in Chichen Itza (Mexico), was transformed by a photographer into a unique umbrella. El Castillo means “castle” in Spanish. It is one of the oldest Mayan temples and is listed as a World Heritage Site. Opening of the world’s longest suspension bridge for pedestrians The bridge 516 Arouca has just been inaugurated on April 29 in Northern Portugal. The bridge is 516 m long, holds the record as the longest pedestrian suspension bridge in the world.

The weekend resort Thanh’s husband designed for his family. The entire campus was designed and built by her husband, Khong Thanh, within 2 months. In which, the house has 6 closed bedrooms in a circular shape, with thatched roofs. In addition, the house also has a swimming pool, sauna, mini golf course, garden, fruit trees. “I want home to be a place to return to, a place to save beautiful memories of each family member,” said Khong Thanh. This house was originally built with the purpose of serving as a resort, but Ms. Thanh’s family lives here quite a lot. Therefore, she also arranged and decorated meticulously like a house in the street. “With such a spacious area, husband and wife can design many types of modern villas. However, we like the rustic life a bit, live in townhouses a lot, so we want to be in harmony with nature. In addition, building in this form is quite fast, not as difficult and sophisticated as building a villa, “said Thanh. The gate is made of wood and the stone fence runs around the garden. The house is built in a circular shape, with thatched roofs against heat. In front is the swimming pool. Swimming pool has a separate area for children. Around the homeowner planted many trees and planned a separate place to plant fruit trees. Air conditioning water tank. The hut is also covered with leaves, surrounded by flowers and ornamental plants. The path in the house is paved with bricks. The garden is installed with an automatic watering system. Modern bedroom design. The master bedroom of the couple, slightly classically designed. In the room there is a dressing table and a shelf for bags. Inside the house at night. The lobby leads to the bedrooms. The house is made in a circle, this is the center in the middle, surrounded by a bedroom, a kitchen, a living room. The golf course serves the sports needs of Thanh’s husband. During the holidays, her family mostly lives here. Lawn and swing for “little princess”. The kitchen and dining room can accommodate about 12 people. Due to the large family here, Ms. Thanh invests in many modern equipment, including a toaster.

By page 163 , a group of 6 friends with 4 dogs, rented a land of 1,000 m2 for 20 years and renovated it into a dream farm where they lived together and developed business projects. The farm is located in the middle of the village, there are not many houses around. A group of 6 friends quit their high-paying jobs in the city to move to the suburbs to settle down. The house that had been built for many years was also rented by them. The main building is made up of thick slabs. The space is accentuated by the arches and the swimming pool in front. From a distance, the building looks like a mysterious mansion. The group of friends redesigned the interior, divided the space to accommodate many people, have a common place and an entertainment area. There is a fireplace in the house, perfect for evenings with wine and conversation. Outside is a large lawn, can set up a camping tent. The group of friends also planted a garden with fruits, flowers and vegetables. They cook with their own grown foods. The rest of the waste is returned to the land to make organic, environmentally friendly fertilizers. The interior of the house was conceived and implemented by a group of 6 people. In the garden are all kinds of fruits and vegetables grown according to organic methods, most are apples. In the harvest season, they will post to sell online and quickly sell out. Liu Lurui is the one who comes up with ideas and “draws” friends who “leave the city to go to the countryside”. This is not a temporary intention, but a dream she has cherished for many years. Previously, Liu studied environmental arts at Tianjin University. In the final year, she studied at Politecnico di Torino (Italy) as an exchange student. A group of friends hoeing the ground, planting trees, enjoying a different life. Once, she and her friends happened to be driving to Southern Italy, she was attracted by a very unspoiled farm, with a house built of volcanic stone, in front of the yard with olive and lemon trees. She feels their life is simple but also very lyrical. At that time, because of lack of funds, she and her friends decided to stay on the farm and ask to prune branches to earn money. In the middle of the farm there is a swimming pool, when tired, some people often jump into it to bathe. Liu said that in the first half of his life, it was the happiest period of his life. After returning home, Liu joined the China Institute of Architectural Design and Research. At the busiest time, she was only at home for 2-3 days a month. She had some health problems and had a mental breakdown. Outside of work, she has no time to enjoy life. Liu was happy when he left the city and returned to his hometown. By 2019, Liu had asked 5 of his friends to start a business in the suburbs of Beijing. In April 2020, their HOBO farm was completed. Liu is married and has a small child. Her husband is a technician, because of his busy work in Beijing, he only visits his wife on weekends. During the day they often set up tents, spread carpets, drink red wine and listen to music together. Now, people get to experience the lifestyle they once dreamed of. Before that, 6 people had different jobs. Some are single, some are in the midst of a career crisis. When they returned to the farm together, they found new happiness in life. Currently, the group of friends has many different sources of income such as working online, selling agricultural products from the farm and renting rooms. Sun Dong, a team member, is a graphic designer. She made a great contribution to the design and construction of many items of the farm. Sun loves to interact with the locals. Now, every time she drives into the village, the villagers will greet her with a smile.

The facade of a cafe grows on farmland by the lake. Photo: DO HOANG Restaurants, eateries on farmland by the lake Located near the area of ​​lane 54 Vinh Luu connecting to Phuong Luu lake, a hundred square meter agricultural land next to the conditioning lake (Dong Hai ward 1) has been transformed into a monumental coffee shop for many months now. This cafe has a facade stretching for tens of meters by the lakeside road, the outside is a wall built with boulders, the top is a barbed wire fence, surrounded by climbing plants and landscaped trees. The inside of the shop is a hundred square meters wide, decorated in a landscaped garden style with many ornamental plants and mini koi fish tanks. Interspersed between the miniature architecture are the tables and chairs with umbrellas for guests to sit, the innermost is a wooden house as a dispensing area, a toilet area. This was originally an enclosed lakeside agricultural land, but in 2020, when the corrugated iron fence is removed, this wasteland has turned into the most majestic cafe on the shore of Phuong Luu Lake. Next to it, at the beginning of lane 54 Vinh Luu, another agricultural land has also been turned into a restaurant and pub in front of Phuong Luu lake. Around lane 54 Vinh Luu, many other agricultural lands have also been turned into houses, some are shops, and some are still fences. According to people in the area, these agricultural lands were initially leveled, covered with corrugated iron fences, and gradually turned into illegal constructions. Not far away, the area at the beginning of lane 155 Phuong Luu, facing the lake, and the hundreds of square meters of agricultural land by the lake has also turned into a restaurant with a facade stretching for tens of meters. The recovered project land is re-occupied At the corner of the lake near Phuong Luu residential area, the whole strip of land that was recovered for the construction project of Phuong Luu lake entertainment area was also encroached on the lake front, turning into a row of restaurants and pubs. The project, invested by Hong Ngoc Trading and Service Joint Stock Company, has a scale of more than 35,000 m of lakeside land in Dong Hai 1 ward, of which more than 4,700 m of land has been cleared and issued a pink book in 2017. . On this area, since 2010, Hong Ngoc Company has invested in building a drainage system, leveling ground, corrugated iron as a wall. After that, the wall was demolished and encroached upon, only to be recovered by the authorities. The investor has rebuilt the corrugated iron fence as the wall of the land. However, in recent years, the corrugated iron fence has been removed, households with land adjacent to the project have built works on the project’s land, turning this place into a row of houses and restaurants along the lake. . According to statistics of the People’s Committee of Dong Hai 1 ward, on the recovered area of ​​Hong Ngoc Company, there have been more than a dozen households occupying the project land, some households occupying a few square meters, some households occupy several tens of square meters, some even occupy several tens of square meters. Some households even occupy more than 100 m². These encroached lands were built with iron fences and corrugated iron, turning into a population of restaurants along the lake. Hong Ngoc Company has repeatedly petitioned for help but so far has not been returned to the occupied land. Mr. Pham Van Dien, Vice Chairman of Dong Hai 1 Ward People’s Committee, said that by the end of 2020, Hai An District People’s Committee had organized a force to support security and order for Hong Ngoc Company to re-plug the boundary marker to determine the portion of the border. occupied area. According to Mr. Dien, the ward has made a list and statistics of the area each household occupies to come here to set up a record and request the demolition. Detected but difficult to handle? According to Mr. Dien, in addition to the planned area for the project of Hong Ngoc Company, other agricultural land areas in Phuong Luu Lake have been planned for the project of Tan Hong Phuc Company and Thuan Thien Company. In Dong Hai 1 ward alone, there have been more than 30 illegal construction works, including more than a dozen works encroaching on the project land recovered by Hong Ngoc Company. Mr. Dien said the area has turned into a cafe, a restaurant, a lakeside project near Lane 123, Lane 155 Phuong Luu, Lane 54 Vinh Luu stretching to the beginning of Doan Chuan Street, which is farmland. planning industry for the project of Tan Hong Phuc Company and Thuan Thien Company. After being approved, these two projects have been suspended for many years, this strip of agricultural land has not been recovered. These agricultural plots have been leveled and gradually built up buildings. According to Mr. Dien, the Ward People’s Committee has inspected and made records for illegal construction works on this agricultural land. Explaining that the illegal construction work was discovered and then still completed and put into operation, Mr. Dien said that because the force of the ward was thin, the households leveled and built illegally on holidays. Even at night, the ward did not stop it in time. Under the direction of the district, the ward has now made statistics on the agricultural land areas that have been leveled and illegally built to report to the District People’s Committee for a plan to handle. Mr. Nguyen Van Tuan, Vice Chairman of Hai An District People’s Committee, said that the district had directed Dong Hai 1 ward to review and establish violation records in the area of ​​Phuong Luu lake. Based on that, districts and wards will mobilize to dismantle, otherwise, they will organize enforcement. “For the offending works at Phuong Luu lake, the district’s view is to resolutely dismantle it,” said Mr. Tuan. Take agricultural land to build hundreds of graves for sale In the area of ​​Phuong Luu lake (Dong Hai ward 1) in late 2020 and early 2021, hundreds of square meters of agricultural land near Dong Khe cemetery (Ngo Quyen district) have been razed to build a series of graves for sale. By the time the district authorities discovered, there were more than 140 graves growing on the agricultural land. The functional forces destroyed more than 140 graves that had not yet been cremated, while two graves had already buried the ashes.

Recently, giant Nguyen Phuong Hang said that he is considering closing Dai Nam tourist area after many storms related to her livestream on social networks in the past time. Photo: Law & readers In the flashbacks of this enthusiastic work, Phuong Hang revealed that the idea of ​​​​making Dai Nam Racecourse in Dai Nam tourist area appeared spontaneously.

Contribute to protect the environment On August 18, 2020, the Prime Minister signed and promulgated Decision No. 1266 approving the strategy for development of building materials in Vietnam in the 2021-2030 period, with a vision to 2050. Accordingly, provinces and cities must minimize the impact on the environment in the process of mining and processing minerals for building materials (building materials) and production of building materials. Using advanced mining technology combined with washing and removing impurities to improve sand quality Promote and encourage all economic sectors to invest in and develop the building materials industry; the fastest access and application of scientific and technological achievements; to develop an efficient and sustainable building materials industry to basically meet domestic demand, step by step increase exports; to encourage investment in research and transfer of production technology for processing lines of crushed sand, sea sand, salt water sand, brackish water sand, fine sand into sand qualified for use in concrete and mortar. “Do not use river sand that meets technical standards for concrete as a leveling material; do not export construction sand extracted from nature; promote the production and use of brackish water, fine sand, and sea sand. together with technical solutions; using advanced mining technology in combination with washing and removing impurities to improve sand quality; waste generated during sand treatment must be collected and stored properly. techniques or reuse; sand mining and processing establishments must meet standards and technical regulations on environmental protection; must carry out environmental rehabilitation and restoration in accordance with the law on mining. , sand processing…”, Decision 1266 stated. Increase project life The Ministry of Construction has submitted to the Government for issuance of Decision 1266, in which Appendix X on sand of the decision states: “For natural sand: Using advanced mining technology combined with washing and removing impurities. to improve the quality of sand,…”. Using clean sand contributes to environmental protection, limiting riverbank and coastal erosion Natural sand sources include hill sand, river and stream sand, estuary sand, dirty fine sand, etc., which have not been washed, so there is still a lot of dust, mud, clay, organic impurities, etc., which are harmful substances to the calf. cardboard and mortar, so often used for leveling is very wasteful. In particular, estuarine sand and sea sand with Cl- ion salt content in the sand > 0.05% cannot be used for leveling and must be discarded, causing waste. Currently, there are enterprises in the country that have successfully researched, manufactured and applied the technology of washing hill sand, river sand, sea sand, dirty sand to produce clean sand for concrete and mortar that meets TCVN 7570 standards: 2006, when applying technology, will make full use of special sand resources, contributing to rational use of sand resources and overcoming sand scarcity. Talking to the press, architect Tran Thanh Tong – Director of Tran Giang Planning and Architectural Design Consulting Co., Ltd (Can Tho City) – said that over the past 10 years, the company has always used clean sand in accordance with the law. Phan Thanh technology for all construction works. Works using clean sand have a slight increase in cost compared to dirty sand, unwashed sand, but in return, works using clean sand are very durable, beautiful, and have a much longer life than using dirty sand. , sand is not ready to wash. According to Mr. Vo Tan Dung, the inventor of the sand washing technology of Phan Thanh Can Tho Company, in fact, when exploiting sand from Tien and Hau rivers in combination with a cleaning factory in the spirit of Appendix X of Decision No. 1266/QD-TTg dated August 18, 2020 of the Prime Minister will help the cost of sand in construction to be converted lower than the cost of using unfiltered sand about 115,000 VND/m3 of sand (cost of The cost of selecting and washing sand at the mine and loading and unloading the sand onto the barge costs at most: 50,000 VND/m3; meanwhile, the cost of sieving through manual nets but not clean: 60,000 VND/m3, 10% impurities including sand and transportation loading and unloading to the construction site but cannot be used, the minimum cost is: 25,000 VND/m3, over 10% of the cement cost, equivalent to about: 80,000 VND when using 1m3 of sand for concrete and mortar). People are used to using unfiltered sand to clean it is paradoxical because in concrete and mortar, there is still too much dust, mud, clay, organic impurities, harmful to the house, and using clean sand when re-cleaning is less expensive and reduces costs. construction cost compared to using unwashed sand. For example, converting sand containing 10.5% impurities, concrete grade 250 will be mixed with 9.06 kg of impurities/bag of cement 50 kg and if sand with 5% impurities, concrete grade 250 will be mixed 4.2 kg. impurities/bag of cement; mortar grade 100 if the sand 10.5% impurities are mixed 17.47 kg of impurities/1 bag of cement and mortar grade 100 if the sand 5% impurities in the sand are mixed 8.32 kg of impurities/bag cement. In addition, using clean sand contributes to quality assurance, so you don’t have to spend too much money on painting many times to waterproof, reduce maintenance costs, etc. In particular, the lifespan is hundreds of years compared to using sand without passing. After a few decades, the construction must be demolished and rebuilt, causing damage of several tens of % of the total value of the work. Therefore, the promulgation of Decision 1266/QD-TTg dated August 18, 2020 of the Prime Minister is practical, especially sand resources will be improved in quality by removing harmful impurities when being washed. clean, contributing to the rational use of sand resources, overcoming the scarcity of sand and ensuring sustainable construction quality for the entire population.

The streams are murmuring, the two sides are filled with flowers and grass, although artificial, it also creates a cool climate that brings a sense of relaxation to people. . Water material Water materials here are not materials and supplies of the industry… water supply – drainage; are not pipes, elbows, knobs, valves, faucets… or water-related equipment.
Water, which can be considered as a building material, joins other materials in architecture. However, water is a special material, not used to make structures or architectural details; which contributes to creating functional and aesthetic values ​​in the overall architecture. In buildings used for human use, it is necessary to have water. Water is a special form of matter that sustains human life and activities. Besides, water materials contribute significantly to the creation of landscape and environment for architecture. Water was present very early in ancient architectural works, traditional folk architecture, in both rural and urban areas. Water surface is an important factor in the overall plan. The ancients exploited natural elements to form water surfaces associated with works such as lakes, ponds, rivers and streams. Then, there are artificial water surfaces, designed, with functional and aesthetic intentions such as artificial lakes, moats, tanks, wells… Water is also an important factor in feng shui in construction. ancient architecture. Water surface in the architectural complex at Faculty of French – University of Foreign Languages ​​- Hanoi National University . In traditional folk architectural works, the water surface and green trees are considered as negative factors to balance yin – yang. And most of the water surface is static, if there is movement, it is a natural flow (river, stream), the supply, drainage – drainage also depends on natural factors. Green as water In green and ecological buildings, water is an important factor to increase the “green” and friendliness of the building. Water improves the microclimate, makes the environment more pure; reduce the heat, bring a pleasant feeling to people living and working in that environment. Besides the classic water surface designs, water plays a more important role thanks to modern technologies and equipment. Water materials can be present in many locations, architectural parts with many states. Water can exist in static form such as lake surface, ornamental tank… and can be in dynamic form such as overflow waterfall, fountain, fountain, artificial flow… Artificial stream in a garden . The large water surface cools and airy the space, creating a mirror effect. Next to it is a humidifying fountain to help cool the space (National Convention Center, Hanoi). Making architecture green with water is a traditional solution but still has a lot of efficiency and plenty of room for the designer’s creativity. The work associated with the water surface always has an airy space, a fresh climate environment, creating many positive aesthetic effects. Water surface and green trees make the architecture close to nature, friendly and open; Helps calm the mind and body. Water can be present in every building, from urban to small structures, regardless of scale. A park can have water, a townhouse can have water. It is important that the designer knows how to place the water surface and control the existence of the water surface appropriately.

Recently, the account Nguyen Tuan Anh caused a “storm” online when sharing a series of photos of the rose house on a forum. According to Tuan Anh, his house in Ba Vi, with an area of ​​​​about 300m2, was built on a land of 10,000m2. Worth mentioning, the garden is covered with flowers, most of which are roses. The ancient roses of Sa Pa, fading persimmons, climbing persimmons … are planted everywhere, causing many people to admire and admire. Tuan Anh revealed that his parents are civil servants, but because he is passionate about growing flowers, he wants to cover an area of ​​10,000m2 with flowers. “This house is designed and built with the view that it is not too luxurious, as long as it looks peaceful and simple and the children have to want to go home every time they have a break. So the whole family is very enthusiastic about the outside space “- Tuan Anh confided. Tuan Anh said that his mother planted flowers not only for the beauty of the house but also because of her passion and love for flowers since childhood. “Flowers and grasses seem to have souls, the flowers that my mother planted are always large and lush, if I am too busy to hire a sub-planter, then it is just like that, the tree wilts for a few days and dies. Since then, my parents have planted flowers by themselves, taking care of flowers like taking care of children, cherishing and pampering “- Tuan Anh shared. Immediately after Tuan Anh shared, the series of photos received more than 20,000 likes, nearly 4,000 comments and 1,500 shares.

Heat resistant paint is also known as insulation paint. Paint consists of a liquid paint layer, a color layer, an adhesive layer and especially a film-forming layer. This film-forming agent is bonded with a reflective additive with a pleated crystalline structure, forming a homogenous body that adheres to the surface. This structure helps the paint to withstand high temperatures without peeling and cracking, especially the ability to reflect sunlight, thereby insulating the house. Sunscreen paint is usually painted on surfaces that are directly exposed to sunlight such as corrugated iron roofs, exterior walls, terraces, etc. According to the advertisement of many anti-heat paint companies, this type of paint can reduce from 13 – 26 degrees Celsius for a project. However, many users said that the actual use is not achieved like that, with works only reducing 4-5 degrees Celsius. Explaining this, experts said, the heat reduction efficiency is high or low depending on the quality of the paint. There are good heat-resistant ones, lesser ones, and even some that are no different from ordinary paints. In addition, the actual degree of heat loss depends on many factors. The first is the thickness of the paint, the thicker the paint, the better the heat resistance, helping to reduce heat deeply. Therefore, to reduce heat well, 2-3 coats must be applied. Another factor is the nature of the building. For example, the lower the roof, the better the effect of the paint is felt. In addition, the surface of the work (smooth or blistered), painting technique also affects the ability to reduce heat. Therefore, many families buy heat-resistant paint, but in reality, it only brings aesthetic value, but the sun protection ability is nowhere to be seen. According to experts, if you want to use sunscreen paint, people need to find out how much the product is confirmed to help reduce degrees Celsius. Many products are only introduced in general to help reduce 10-20 degrees Celsius but not give specific numbers. In addition, attention should be paid to the service life of the paint. Products with a lifespan of 3-5 years are often unsatisfactory and expensive in maintenance and replacement. It is best to choose a paint with a life expectancy of more than 10 years and the warranty period must be from 3 to 5 years. Secondly, it is necessary to check the surface of the work. If the surface is blistered, peeling, using paint does not guarantee high efficiency. In addition, do not forget to plant more trees around the house, windows, balconies, terraces … to increase the efficiency of heat reduction, especially on hot summer days, when the temperature of the day rises. tallest.

Tulip turbines are “planted” in urban areas, on the rooftops of houses in Amsterdam, the Netherlands Traditional wind turbines are often located in the sea, are huge in size, make loud noises, can harm birds, and it is important that very strong winds are needed to generate electricity. The new tulip-shaped design overcomes all of the above shortcomings, it only needs a normal wind to generate enough electricity for a family to use comfortably all day. Israeli-American Dr Daniel Farb, the inventor of the tulip turbine, said the unique aerodynamic design makes the turbines quiet, efficient and capable of generating more than 50% of the electricity in clusters. Shaped like glossy flowers in a variety of colors and sizes (1m, 3m and 6m high), the tulip turbines are designed to double duty as electricity generation and artistic decoration on the rooftops. home, shopping mall, school… In addition, a solar system combined with tulip turbines could reduce overcrowding during the late afternoon peaks in many parts of the world when sunlight goes out and strong winds pick up.

Trends in furniture design favor simplicity and versatility in order to reduce costs during the epidemic period. Changing shopping needs
Mr. Nguyen Van Binh, residing at lane 133 Thinh Liet (Hoang Mai, Hanoi) said that his family had just bought an apartment in Tan Mai street (Hoang Mai) and was installing it. furniture. However, due to the decrease in income during the Covid-19 epidemic, his family prioritizes moderate-priced wood materials, from 700,000 to 800,000 VND/m2 to build beds, tables and chairs, and floors. For other furniture, such as TV shelves, wardrobes, and kitchen cabinets, preference is given to industrial wood with prices ranging from 400,000 to 500,000 VND/m2. “Wood is still the most popular product when it comes to interior finishing, but with the current epidemic situation, my income has decreased, so I have to use affordable products. In fact, cheaper products do not mean that they will break quickly during use. If the elements are not moldy, waterproof, etc., it will still prolong the life of the furniture. In addition, using affordable products when you want to change the design is also less expensive, “- Mr. Nguyen Van Binh shared.
Currently, most people do not want or cannot afford to install high-class wood products, instead switching to industrial wood product lines, such as MDF, Veneer, and MFC. .., has a lower price, but not much inferior in terms of design, usability, even somewhat superior in form. According to General Director of Tam Phat Fine Art Wood Company, Pham Quoc Truong, the affordable industrial wood product line is the preferred choice by consumers, not only at the “softer” price compared to natural wood. , but also in line with the tastes of today’s youth. “Industrial wood is simple but still brings sophistication in design, easy to use, easy to clean. This is the advantage that helps industrial wood furniture to compete fairly with natural wood” – Mr. Pham Quoc Truong acknowledged.
Simple design choices
Mr. Hoang Van Thuy, owner of Thuy Ha furniture factory, Lien Ha commune (Dong Anh, Hanoi) said that currently, wooden products used for interior decoration on the market have a variety of designs. price. Wood material not only brings elegance and aesthetics, but when designed, it is easy to combine with items in many different spaces. Therefore, wood materials are always preferred by people.
Accordingly, sophisticated patterns and motifs are replaced with less cumbersome, monochromatic shapes, suitable for young families, townhouses or apartments. In addition to meeting the requirement of simplicity, due to limited living space in urban areas, consumers want to use multi-functional, integrated furniture, for example, kitchen cabinets with many drawers, rotating cabinets. or slide to hold multiple items. In addition to simplicity and versatility, smart furniture also plays an increasingly important role in living space in urban areas to optimize the area of ​​​​the house. For example, combining the use of a wooden table with a bed with many drawers, the foot of the stairs combined with a shelf… The arrangement of utilities near each other helps the house space to add more space, people can more opportunities to enjoy the benefits of 4.0 technology. With the change in tastes, along with the tight spending mentality during the current epidemic period, consumers are tending to use wood products with simple designs and multi-purpose furniture.

Therefore, the meaning of this word Komorebi we can understand with many other special meanings. The purpose of the project is to create a stopover for tourists here, the rooms are designed with sufficient area, minimalist interior, pure space for accommodation needs. The overall function of the project emphasizes the applicability as well as the living habits for guests to experience. Komorebi project has an area of ​​150 m² located in the center of Da Lat city. Komorebi stands out in the middle of Da Lat city because the house has white tones throughout with many different shaped windows. When starting the conceptual work for the project, Architects AD9 Architects identified Komorebi as a subject and the surrounding context as the core element. The elements around are linked in the most natural way. Here, the main shapes and colors chosen by the architect are simply self-perceptions derived from the above concept. People and scenes revolve around things become connected and harmonious, ensuring the new existence of the work is balanced and inseparable from the actual context. The building was renovated from an old house on a high slope. True to the meaning of the work, when stepping inside, it is filled with light, like “sunbeams through the leaves”. Architects AD9 Architects use wooden doorways and slats to express the meaning of the building “sunbeams through the leaves”. The change in light effects, shadows cast through each time of the day are different expressions of vision and emotions for the experience that each individual is different, but the interesting thing is that. It is a system of windows and wooden slats that create conditions for sunlight to enter. White horizontal blinds make the house more airy, but still ensure privacy when needed.

Stairs leading to the first floor are light wood. The set of tables and chairs in the dining area creates a feeling of comfort and room for users. The front yard of architect Anh Quy creates a small ecosystem in front of the house with vertical and climbing plants to help keep the house cooler. Besides, the architect also designed many curves in the house as accents. The use of two skylights saves on cooling and lighting equipment for the house. The architect must calculate the size so that the skylight is just enough to get the wind to get light without being hit by rain but still aesthetically pleasing. The high ceiling is no longer as secretive as before. Bedroom one, the architect still keeps the same design concept as the bedroom on the ground floor, but changes are the design of the bed. Impressive orange upholstery is the highlight of the bed and bed as for the whole bedroom. There are two porcelain pedestals above the headboard, instead of the usual bedside tab, which can hold useful items, lamps, books and phones. Bedroom two, this room is a combination of the previous two rooms but still follows the minimalist theme of the whole house. In the small living room, the architect designed a small table and chair set where the architect’s parents could drink tea, the family gathered together every Tet holiday. In front is a balcony where you can plant trees to create a new ecosystem. The architect also designed a small living room with a small table and chairs so that parents can drink tea and the family gather together every Tet holiday.

In terms of structure, this house is a DublDom prefab house, also known as a Modular prefab (Prefab Cabin), designed by Moscow-based architecture firm Bio Architects. The project to build this house was carried out in 2016 with the chief architect being Ivan Ovchinnikov. In addition, the house uses materials from famous brands such as: Knauf, VELUX, Thorma, Ikea. What makes prefab homes special is the reduction in construction costs by using materials such as: Metal, raw wood planks and glass. These materials are not only cheap but also contribute to the modern and glossy beauty of the house. The DublDom line of houses uses modular components that are assembled together, allowing for quick construction, after completion ranging from 26 m2 to 130 m2 and prices ranging from 2,300 USD and 100,000 USD. Specifically, the eight-room house here, priced at $80,000 to complete, was designed and built for a family who had tried out a 40-square-foot DublDom prefab a year earlier. Thanks to large skylights, exposed glass walls and columns, the house receives a lot of natural light and the entire interior is made of whitewashed monolithic pine, making you feel like you are living in harmony with nature. nature.

The 2021 Award evaluation process is carried out according to regulations, including checking application conditions; consult experts to review; evaluated at the Foundation’s Scientific Council (OSC) and the Award Council. On April 29, 2021, the Prize Council for 2021 met to evaluate and select applications. However, after more than 4 hours of discussion and voting, the Award Council decided not to recommend awarding the nominations. On May 13, 2021, the Minister of Science and Technology approved this proposal. Too few good records? Professor Ngo Viet Trung, Chairman of the Award Council, said that this year, although the number of applications for evaluation and selection was similar to previous years, after the initial review, there were only 2 scientific activities in Earth Science and Science. Environmental and Agricultural Biology nominate 2 entries for the Main Prize and 2 for the Junior Award for consideration at the Awards Panel. This year’s nominations are all in the experimental field, related to issues of concern to scientists around the world. It is the work of Assoc.Prof.Dr. Ngo Duc Thanh, Dr. Bui Minh Tuan on climate change in rain, and the work on the use of antibiotic substitutes in aquaculture by Dr. Do Huu Hoang, a project on the technical system of growing chrysanthemums on a large scale by Dr. Hoang Thanh Tung. Will young scientists have more opportunities at the Ta Quang Buu Prize? Prof. Nguyen Huu Duc, Chairman of the Physics Council, said that although this year the Science Council also received a number of applications, including works published in journals with IF coefficients, but did not nominate any works. to the Awards Committee. Explaining this, Prof. Duc said the reason is that most of these works have only been published about half a year ago, while the Physics Council thinks that it is necessary to evaluate the works at an international level, through by number of citations. “So the Physics committee members agreed to give it another year to have a more accurate assessment of the publication quality with these works.” In the Science Council in Mathematics, there are also two nominations that, according to Prof. Ngo Viet Trung, are of sufficient quality. However, at the time of voting, both of these applications did not receive 2/3 of the votes to be nominated to the Award Council. This may have caused a negative resonance if people did not understand the situation of this year “- Professor Trung shared. “However, I confirm that no works have been awarded the award that does not fully reflect the development reality of the country’s science and technology.” According to Professor Ngo Viet Trung, looking at the quality of international publication of basic science today, the number of articles in leading journals has increased markedly and the quality is much better than the time when there was a Ta Quang Buu Award. “However, each year the quantity and quality of applications for awarding the Prize depends on many other factors such as the self-nomination of scientists or the nomination of research and training organizations. create. Scientists are afraid to nominate themselves for the prize, while many agencies are not interested in nominating outstanding works. In addition, awarding a prize to an individual or to a work also limits nominations because scientific achievements are often confirmed through a cluster of works and through the cooperation of many scientists. Professor Ngo Viet Trung also said that it is important that the quality of the award is guaranteed. “It’s normal for an award not to be given by anyone. The Board of Directors has worked very seriously, not for the sake of having a prize but trying to award it, which will affect the prestige of the award. For example, China’s highest national award for science and technology (worth about $750,000) has gone without a prize twice, Mr. Trung cited. In particular, in 2015, there was no award, but China had a Nobel Prize in Medicine right before the national award. Young scientists need to be taken care of The 2021 season has passed, but according to Prof. Ngo Viet Trung, there are contents that the Foundation needs to discuss to draw lessons for the following years, so that the award can achieve the purpose of promoting research in basic science and technology. encourage young researchers. He also expressed the view that “need to pay more attention to young scientists”. “I and other members are trying to propose to the Ministry of Science and Technology so that each industry has a young award and the young award recipient will be a typical scientist for his or her specialty.” Prof. Nguyen Huu Duc also expressed his support that next year the regulations should change a bit, such as increasing the number of young prizes, and some more detailed award criteria. “Currently, the criteria of the award are heavy on hard indexes such as the influence of magazines, and the ability to deeply analyze the value of each work still has some shortcomings. Therefore, in my opinion, it is necessary to balance the hard criteria with the specific value and unique points of the work, plus expert opinion, public opinion because there are works published in ordinary journals but very difficult. excellent”. Ta Quang Buu Prize is an annual award of the Ministry of Science and Technology to encourage and honor scientists who play a key role in excellent scientific works, carried out in Vietnam, and published on the Internet. prestigious international scientific journals in the field of natural sciences and engineering. The award has been implemented since 2013, in the past 7 years, it has received more than 360 applications, awarded 16 main prizes and 4 awards for young scientists.

Glass bridge over the mountain, Longjing city, Jilin, China The world in general, and especially in China, is favoring the trend of building glass bridges in rugged mountainous areas to attract tourists who love adventurous experiences. But these glass bridges raise a lot of doubts about the level of safety, especially after the recent glass bridge was severely damaged by wind and storm in China recently. Glass bridge trend blooms, risks go hand in hand There is no organization that has statistics on the number of glass bridges in the world, but one thing is for sure, as tourism develops, the number of new glass bridges, with records of length and sophistication, is built in different places. where the terrain is difficult… more. In the West, there are some names such as Tower Bridge in London (UK), Skywalk Bridge in Grand Canyon (Arizona, USA…). In Asia, China is leading this trend with an estimated 60 glass bridges that have been built across the country of billions of people since 2016, according to the Earth Journal of the China Geological Museum. Even, many Chinese glass bridges entered the Guinness World Records. For example, the glass bridge at Tianmen Mountain, Zhangjiajie, 430m long, spanning two cliffs 300m deep, opened to visitors in 2016. At that time, this was the tallest and longest glass bridge in the world. Recently, this record was broken by the bridge in Qingyuan, Guangdong, China with a length of 526m. Vietnam is also not out of the trend of developing glass bridges with the names of Dragon Cloud Bridge in Sapa and Love Bridge in Moc Chau… However, since this trend has blossomed, China has witnessed a lot of incidents that threaten the lives of tourists, making the people of this country in particular and the world question the level of safety. Recently, on May 7, stormy winds damaged the suspension bridge on Mount Piyan (Longjing City, Jilin Province), many of the bridge’s glass panels were cracked, some were even swept away, causing a tourist stuck, trembling, clinging to the bridge wall in front of winds up to 150km/h. Although the guest in trouble was safely brought down by the rescue team, checked for health and psychology and did not cause any other consequences, local authorities decided to close the bridge and conduct a comprehensive inspection. The entire incident was recorded by nearby tourists and posted on social media, raising concerns about the safety of glass bridges across China. “Too many glass bridges have been built in the last few years to serve tourists, but how can we ensure the safety of these structures?” said a doctor surnamed Li in Sichuan province. question. What are the technical standards and operation of the glass bridge? Photos of tourists stuck on the glass bridge According to Xinhua, many local governments of this country have published guidelines to ensure glass safety since 2018. In particular, Hubei province has published a set of technical standards for bridges and roads for people walk in glass at attractions, clearly stating instructions on materials, location, design, construction as well as operating procedures. For example, glass bridges should not be built in places where earthquakes often occur, must be closed during bad weather or natural disasters, and limit the number of people on the bridge to no more than 3 people/m2. In potentially hazardous locations, the bridge management must provide additional protective equipment, install warning signs in Chinese and at least 1 foreign language. Around the world, according to Paul Bingham, a materials scientist at Sheffield Hallam University (UK), designers and architects always think very carefully before choosing materials. “If using glass as a building material, there will be two weaknesses. The first is glass, which is fragile. The second is that the glass has no crystals, so if there is a crack on the surface, it will quickly spread and be difficult to restore,” said Paul Bingham. Therefore, a lot of research on glass materials has been done focusing on finding ways to limit cracking of the glass surface. “A scratched glass is much weaker than pristine glass when it has not been exposed to dust or air,” says Mr. Bingham. A number of new glass materials manufacturing techniques have been invented to make bridges, which is to add a layer of material such as polymer to the outside, preventing the glass from being cracked or scratched. This technique was used to build bridges in Longjing, China as outlined above. Many other glass manufacturers may put thin layers of flexible polymer in between the glass layers in case one glass breaks, leaving another layer intact to prevent total cracking. In general, the British expert affirmed, if the glass bridge is built by the above methods, it is basically safe. The most important thing is to ensure safety in operation, especially in case of bad weather. Around March 2018, according to China state television (CCTV), Hebei province had to close all 32 glass bridges for safety checks. In 2019, a man in Guangxi, China slipped on a glass bridge due to heavy rain, fell off the bridge and died.

Taking off his hat, Newin Chidchob – one of the famous politicians of Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra’s era, built his life’s dream when creating a sports tourism technology worth hundreds of millions of dollars in his homeland and transforming ” happy city” Buriram became the top 10 most famous destinations in Thailand. Communicating, building a football dream When the Thais reformed the Thai League in 2007, Buriram United was one of the rare teams that was not located in the capital Bangkok during the transition period. However, Buriram United makes perfect use of its “locality” to rise to the top of the Thai League in terms of competition performance, and at the same time change the skin in socio-economic development in Buriram, the province. about 400km from Bangkok and bordering Cambodia. In 2009, Newin Chidchob, a former Thai politician who served as Deputy Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, invested in Buriram United and brought the concept of “entertainment” to the audience, in the context of local people. The media does not have many choices of entertainment facilities. Newin changed Buriram Born from a “happy city” – the meaning of the city of Buriram – but Newin Chidchob has never felt truly happy during his 30 years of engaging in politics. After “putting down the sword”, Newin Chidchob found the joy of life. The owner of Buriram United shared: “Before, when I went to the street or went to the supermarket, many people knew me. But not everyone came to say hello. When I developed Buriram United – becoming the pride of Thai football – many people came to take pictures and offer to sign autographs on souvenirs. Regardless of which club they are a fan of. And Buriram United is a local team, but the fans come from all over Thailand and many countries around the world.” . Pride “Happy City” Thailand’s professional football tournament – Thai League – is in the top 8 in Asia and is worth an estimated 3.5 billion Thai baht (about 2,000 billion VND). According to statistics of Thai League company, the average revenue of clothes and souvenirs of 18 teams competing in Thai League is 65 million baht/round (about 42 billion VND). Newin once brought Xuan Truong to Thai League The club’s well-invested communication and image, enthusiastic audience or attracting sponsors are the answers to the problem of survival and development of clubs in Thailand. Of course, in order to do this, clubs must have a special football field for professional football activities. With the support of the local government, Newin Chidchob was granted a land area of ​​about 20 hectares to invest in the sports ecosystem with the goal of developing the local economy. Buriram United is considered the center of this local sports-tourism-based economic development plan. Newin Chidchob once shared with the media that: “ Buriram is a small province located near the Cambodian border. Tourists often just stop by to visit Phanom Rung historical park – a Khmer temple complex located on the edge of an extinct volcano – and then continue to other big cities, instead of staying in Buriram. This place is also considered a poor area of ​​Thailand, the economy used to be heavily based on agriculture. When Buriram United was born and achieved success, other service industries, especially tourism, developed rapidly. That changes the economic structure of Buriram province.” . In the journey to change the face of Buriram United, Newin Chidchob built Thunder Castle – a 32,600-seat stadium with 5-star facilities. This is the most modern specialized football field in Thailand, meeting the strict standards of FIFA. Besides, a variety of other items also spring up around such as restaurants, hotels, fitness centers, convenience stores. For fans, at first, Buriram United “indirectly” sponsored the fans until it maintained the average number of spectators to the highest stadium in Thailand. This achievement is a great achievement from Hardcore – a group of enthusiastic fans of the team chaired by President Newin Chidchob’s wife. Before the troubles because of Covid-19, Buriram’s home field is always crazy With a huge audience, this creates thousands of jobs for locals. People in Buriram are very interested in buying themselves a traditional team shirt. Buriram United is the pride and symbol of the “happy city” Buriram. The Buriram United logo is plastered on cars, motorbikes, bags, etc. Every afternoon, families or small groups come together to the campus outside Thunder Castle to enjoy the fresh air. Children can freely play in a very large area, where there are football, tennis, basketball courts… for free. On the business side, Buriram United also became the flagship of the Thai League. Statistics from 2013 to now show that the team’s revenue has increased nearly 3 times. Buriram United had sales of 210 billion VND (300 million baht) in 2013 and increased to 564 billion VND (805 million baht) in 2018. Million dollar sports tourism technology After succeeding in attracting spectators to Buriram province through football, manager Newin Chidchob thought of more ways to help sports tourists stay longer in their hometown, instead of just coming to watch the football match, go to the tournament. Visit a few tourist destinations and then parted. With a keen eye, this former politician cleverly built Chang’s racetrack to become a FIA – Grade 1 race track for cars and FIM – Grade A for motorcycles; combined with Thunder Castle stadium and shopping center combined with visiting outstanding relics of ancient Khmer culture near the stadium. As a result, tourists to Buriram have many options with a busy schedule. Mr. Newin built an international standard race track Continually organizing international tournaments, racing drivers and fans flock to the “happy city” to compete and cheer. The stay rate of sports tourists in this sports segment is 3-5 days with a spending level 3 times higher than football fans, helping Buriram sports city to have a diverse tourist segment. Newin Chidchob’s effective development strategy has contributed to local development. The combination of football in particular or sports in general with the resort service business is not new in Thailand. People often call it sports tourism, and this is the area where Thailand is aiming to develop its economy through the combination of tourism and sports, after pure tourism in Thailand has developed to a storm. peace. Thanks to the diverse sports ecosystem that Newin Chidchob has built over the past decade, Buriram’s economy has flourished, especially tourism. According to statistics in 2009, visitors to Buriram were only about 800,000 people, but in 2016 it increased nearly 3 times. Revenue increased from 808 million baht to 2.4 billion baht. It is estimated that each year Buriram United and its ecosystem attract 1.8 million visitors out of a total of 2.5 million to Buriram. Organizers estimate that if each visitor spends about 2,000 baht when arriving in Buriram, the local economy will earn approximately 5 billion baht (about 3500 billion VND). This is a huge number, a “dream” for any country in the region coveted with its tourism and sports business strategy.

The house is located in Cam Le district, Da Nang city, built on a land of 100m2.

Villa built in Thai style. After only a few hours of sharing on forums, pictures of the villa quickly attracted many shares and comments. Tuan Anh is working in the communication department for a large hospital in Hanoi. Before Tuan Anh went home during the day, but recently, because he was busy studying for a master’s degree, he only stayed at home on weekends and holidays. The feature of the villa area is that it is built in the style of a Thai 1-storey roof and surrounded by a rose garden, combining fruit gardens, fish clothes … The fence surrounds the villa. Tuan Anh’s grandparents are nearly 100 years old, often go for a walk every afternoon. This house was built with the point of not being too luxurious, but looking at it, it must be peaceful and simple. This is a place where every member, when happy or sad, successful or unsuccessful, wants to come back. Villa at night. For that reason, homeowners are quite focused on the outside landscape. The rose garden was planted and cared for by Tuan Anh’s mother. “My mother is passionate and loves flowers since childhood. Mother works in the government, all hours are back to gardening. Many days do not rest until 11 o’clock at night. In particular, my mother has a hand in planting trees and flowers. Every tree blooms and proliferates,” Tuan Anh said. Tuan Anh’s mother – the owner of this beautiful garden. Sapa persimmons are grown everywhere in the garden. The neighborhood children often come here to play on the swings every afternoon. Tuan Anh’s mother chooses fruits and flowers that are easy to grow, suitable for the northern climate. When the weather conditions are right, the flowers bloom and blossom, the fruits are laden with branches. The garden is regularly added with flower pots. In addition to roses, the garden has gerberas and several other flowers. An ancient rose root. Newly planted myrtle garden, opposite the backyard of the house. The owner arranges there a space for the extended family to sit and eat barbecue. Organically grown roses, using MO biological products. White roses, velvet roses cover the house. The garden is divided into a flower area, a vegetable area and a separate lawn. Roses are used by Tuan Anh’s mother as food, rose water, skin care cosmetics, rose tea… Unused flowers are poured into the pond to feed the fish.

The prime location that allows to fully enjoy the beach and the changes at all times of the day from dawn, dusk to lights is the biggest emotion leading the architect when designing the project. The entire architecture of the cafe is focused on the sea in order to maximize the views and enhance the beauty of nature in the most vivid way. Balancing the needs of young people, the main target of the shop, and the advantages of the land, the design team has created a variety of seats, where every corner is a different scene, a different sky. The diverse shapes of the doorways are animatedly arranged on a simple block creating pleasing rhythms. Light, shadow, sea surface and green canopies become the main decoration materials of the building. The diverse shapes of the doorways are animatedly arranged on a simple block creating pleasing rhythms. Guests’ emotions are skillfully guided from the porch on the front steps to the windows through the floors and stop at the highest point – where the stairs “connect” between the sky and the sea. Accordingly, the views towards the sea also gradually expand, proportional to the high floors. With such an “extroverted” spirit, the interior of the restaurant simply focuses on comfort and convenience for users with a variety of stylish tables and chairs. Light, shadow, sea surface and green canopies become the main decoration materials of the building. Right in front of the shop is a long-standing beach of local people, bustling in the morning and afternoon, putting the work in a familiar context and rhythm of the coastal city.

A shelter room in the basement of a building in Tel Aviv. Photo: Van Ung – P/v VNA in Tel Aviv During the conflict that has been going on for the past week, Hamas in the Gaza Strip fires hundreds of shells and rockets into Israel every day in retaliation for the Israeli army’s attack on this force. According to Israel’s Civil Defense Law, enacted in 1951 and subsequently amended several times, all homes, residential areas, offices and industrial buildings must have additional shelters built. In addition, Israel has also launched many propaganda campaigns, instructing people on how to stay safe whenever the sirens sound. In recent clashes with Hamas, the bunkers along with the Iron Dome (Iron Dome) interceptor missile system have helped Israel very effectively limit the number of casualties from Palestinian shells. The idea of ​​shelter was born after the First Gulf War, to help people quickly reach a safe place from bombs, bullets, missiles or chemical weapons. Later, with the development of the construction industry, Israelis tend to build shelter rooms right in their apartments. Whenever there is a missile alarm, people just need to quickly enter the shelter, close the door and wait until the alarm is over for 10 minutes to be able to go out safely. Currently in Israel there are some basic types of shelter works as follows: Shelter: All homes, residential areas and industrial buildings in Israel are required to have shelters built. The law also allows several houses or apartment buildings to share a bunker. In the event of war, the garages can be requisitioned as shelters or makeshift hospitals. The bunker must always remain closed so that anyone can quickly and easily access it when the sirens sound. Israeli children in a bunker. Photo: Jerusalem Post Shelter room: This is the most common form of shelter in Israel. Shelters are built right into apartments, floors of buildings or other public areas. The shelter room, built of reinforced concrete, is located near the entrance to the apartments. Usually these rooms are used by residents as storage, but when there is an incident, this place will be required to be cleaned up to be ready for people to enter the shelter at any time. Fortifications: Neighborhoods near the Gaza Strip often build fortifications, which are dome structures over buildings to avoid being penetrated by rockets. Since 2008, the Israeli government has built a solid bus stop with reinforced concrete to avoid being hit by shrapnel. Since 2009, all schools in the South have been fortified with anti-missiles. Migunit: This is a concrete structure shaped like a bell or box, with enough space for a small group of about 10 people to shelter. Migunit can be moved to place in vacant lots or near roads so that people can easily access when there is an alarm. Sewer pipes is a pipe several meters long placed near a house that can provide temporary shelter. At the request of the agency in charge of civil safety, the minimum size of the shelter room is as follows: Covered area 13m2 (3.6m x 3.6m), clear area 9m2 (3m x 3m) . Thickness of outer wall 25cm, thickness of inner wall 20cm, thickness of ceiling 30cm. The room must be built of solid materials, with metal-reinforced doors. Israelis take refuge in a sewer when rockets are fired from Gaza. Photo: Getty Images Normally, the shelter room will be the innermost room of the building, with limited wall area exposed to the outside, no windows or small windows, and the walls are not covered with fragile materials. shot causing injury such as porcelain, brick, mirror, glass… For old apartment buildings, the law stipulates that there must be shelter rooms with reinforced concrete walls at least 12 cm thick or at least under concrete stairs. cardboard with enough supports to keep the building safe enough from bombs and missiles. In the past, when there were no clear regulations, each shelter room was only 5m2 wide and was often used as a laundry room or storage. Later, the law stipulates a minimum area of ​​9m2, but most families still use the shelter room as an extra bedroom or office. In the event of a war, in each shelter people usually keep some items such as canned food, emergency lights, communication equipment, fire extinguishers, copies of important documents, phone chargers, and batteries. batteries, bottled water. There are also some personal items such as money, clothes, candles, medicine, first aid kit and important phone numbers.

The operator of the air conditioning pump station is located in the heart of the extended Nguyen Sy Sach street The reservoir pumping station project is funded by World Bank (WB) loan. The project has a total investment of more than 20 billion VND, was handed over and put into operation in 2018. However, at this time, another project was started, making this project not yet effective. Break. When project overlaps project In the early days of May, 2021, Reporter of Traffic Newspaper was present at the construction of extended Nguyen Sy Sach Street (in Vinh City, Nghe An Province). As noted, the construction is unfinished but the atmosphere is quite quiet. On the long road through Hung Dung ward, only a few trucks carry the ground for motorbikes to level and flatten. Meanwhile, the ground on this section of the route has not been cleared, the most typical is the pumping station for the conditioning reservoir. According to observations, 2/3 of the construction area is in the middle of the center of the road. In addition, crossing the road, there is a system of floating sewer pipes and submerged culverts carrying water at the bottom. The entire infrastructure in this project is still quite new. A resident living near this project said: “This wastewater treatment pumping station has just been built and has just been put into operation. Now I heard that they are going to have to demolish to make a road, what a waste.” Confirming information, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Phong, Deputy Head of Vinh City Construction and Investment Management Board said: This pumping station project is part of the Vinh urban development sub-project, invested by Vinh City People’s Committee. from the World Bank (WB) loan. Pumping station with a capacity of 10,500m3/day, built around 2015 – 2016 and handed over for operation in 2018. Mr. Hoang Hong Khanh, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Vinh Urban Infrastructure Development and Management Joint Stock Company, affirmed: The unit has received the pumping station and operated since 2018. Up to now, the station is still operating normally and has never been opened. exploit at full capacity. This station mainly pumps and transfers wastewater along the two banks of the North canal. “The wastewater pumping station component has a total investment of more than 20 billion dong (about 1 million USD), all borrowed from the World Bank. Now that the pumping station has to be demolished to build a road, I don’t know why the project overlaps like that?”, said Mr. Nguyen Trung Dung, former Director of the Urban Development Sub-Project Management Board. Vinh City (representative of the investor) said. Responsible football Talking to PV, Mr. Nguyen The Anh, Deputy Head of Vinh City Urban Construction Project Management Board, added: The city has assigned the City Land Fund Development Center to coordinate with the City Management and Construction Joint Stock Company. develop Vinh urban infrastructure as a plan to relocate a part of the pumping station, making way for the extended Nguyen Sy Sach road project. When asked why in the process of implementing the planning and adjusting the planning to overlap and overlap between the two projects, which wastes money, Mr. Nguyen The Anh explained: The pumping station project is part of the capital project. loans from the World Bank, formed in the 2010s. At that time, there was no master plan for Vinh City until 2030, with a vision to 2050; Subdivision planning and extended Nguyen Sy Sach street have not been formed yet. It was not until 2015, when the pumping station was under construction, that the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 52 “Approving the adjustment of the general planning of Vinh city, Nghe An province to 2030, with a vision to 2050”. At this time, Nguyen Sy Sach Street was extended. “The board is only a construction management unit, on planning issues, you have to ask the City’s Urban Management Department,” said Mr. The Anh. Meanwhile, Mr. Nguyen Viet Duc, Head of Vinh City Urban Management Department only said: “The pumping station existed before the extended Nguyen Sy Sach street project. The prolonged Nguyen Sy Sach Street is a key project of the city, if it is not done immediately, it will lose the opportunity that the Central Government has allowed.” And although the plan and cost of moving the pumping station has not been approved yet, Mr. Duc still affirmed that the displacement value is “almost zero”. As for why in the process of planning and adjusting the plan to prevent encroachment, Mr. Duc immediately pushed the responsibility: “It was the matter of my predecessor, I had not done it at that time, so I do not know”. Regarding the relocation plan and the State’s payment, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Vinh Urban Infrastructure Development and Management Joint Stock Company – Hoang Hong Khanh said: “We have surveyed and identified outside the fence and yard. , the operator must be demolished and relocated to the rear, there is also a section of the floating ditch that is affected and must be adjusted. Fortunately, the pumping system and underground tank were not affected, so the cost of moving (removing and rebuilding – PV) the above items to the back, cost about 1 billion VND. The extended Nguyen Sy Sach road project has a length of 6.5km, started in 2018, expected to be completed in March 2021, extended until December 2021. Total project cost in phase 1 is 240 billion VND. Currently, 4.5km has been compensated for site clearance.

The Egyptian pyramids are a giant structure in the middle of the desert and can be seen from extraterrestrial satellites. Building these pyramids was certainly a huge task, so who did it? The pyramids could not have been built by Jewish slaves, as no archaeological remains that can be directly related to the Jews have been found in Egypt dating to 4,500 years ago, when the needles Giza pyramids were built, archaeological research has revealed. Also, the story told in the Hebrew Bible about the slavery of the Jews in Egypt refers to a city called “Ramesses.” A city called pi-Ramesses was founded during the 19th dynasty (circa 1295-1186 BC) and named after Ramesses II, who ruled 1279-1213 BC. This city was built after the pyramid construction period ended in Egypt. Furthermore, no archaeological evidence has been found of the lost city of Atlantis for any length of time, and many scholars believe the story to be fictitious. For aliens, this idea is said to be impossible. In fact, Egyptologists say, all the evidence suggests that the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids. However, how the pyramid builders lived, how they were rewarded and how they were treated is still a mystery that researchers are still investigating. The pyramids and the people who built them Egypt has over 100 ancient pyramids, but the most famous include the first-order pyramid, built during the reign of pharaoh Djoser (circa 2630-2611 BC) and the first real pyramid. was built during the rule of pharaoh Snefru (circa 2575-2551 BC). The Great Pyramid was built at Giza during the reigns of pharaoh Khufu (circa 2551-2528 BC), and two of his successors, Khafre (circa 2520-2494 BC) and Menkaure (c. 2490-2472 BC), there are also pyramids built at Giza. The pharaohs gradually stopped building pyramids during the New Kingdom (1550-1070 BC), choosing instead to be buried in the Valley of the Kings, about 483 km south of Giza. Over the past few decades, archaeologists have found new evidence that provides clues as to who the pyramid builders were and how they lived. Surviving records, including papyri manuscripts discovered in 2013 at Wadi al-Jarf on Egypt’s Red Sea coast, suggest that large groups of workers helped bring the materials to Giza. The papyri found at Wadi al-Jarf tells of a group of 200 men led by an inspector named Merer. This group of workers moved the stones by boat along the banks of the Nile, 18km from the Great Pyramid at Tura, where the stones were used to build the pyramid’s outer layer. Egyptologists have previously theorized that the pyramid builders were largely done by seasonal farmers, times of the year when there was little agricultural work to do. The papyri detailing the pyramid’s history is still in the process of being deciphered and analyzed, but the results indicate that the group led by Merer did more than help build the pyramid. These workers appear to have traveled through much of Egypt, possibly as far as the Sinai desert, carrying out many of the construction projects and tasks assigned to them. This raises the question of whether they are part of a permanent professional force, rather than a group of seasonal agricultural workers who will return to their fields. Pyramid builder treatment? According to Pierre Tallet, a professor of Egyptology at the University of Paris-Sorbonne in France, who is deciphering papyri manuscripts and co-leader of the team that found them, the workers were given a diet that included scrubs. is, vegetables, poultry and meat. In addition to a healthy diet, the papyri manuscript describes members of the working group regularly receiving textiles, which could have been seen as a reward at the time. In addition, officials in senior positions involved in the construction of the pyramids may have received land grants, said Mark Lehner, director of the Association for Ancient Egyptian Studies (AERA), a Massachusetts-based research institute. Historical records show that there were times in Egyptian history when officials were granted land. However, it is not known whether the land-granted officials were involved in the construction of the pyramid. Lehner’s team was excavating a town in Giza that was inhabited and frequented by several workers who were building the Menkaure pyramids. So far, archaeologists have found evidence that the ancient inhabitants of this town once baked large quantities of bread, slaughtered thousands of animals and brewed large quantities of beer. Based on animal bones found at the site, and considering the nutritional needs of workers, archaeologists estimate that about 1,800 kilograms of animals, including cattle, sheep and goats, were slaughtered on average. average daily, to provide food for workers. The remains of the workers were buried in the tombs near the pyramid, showing that the workers had healed their bones. This shows that they have access to medical care that is available at the time. The rich diet of the pyramid builders, combined with evidence of medical care and receiving textiles… has led Egyptologists to generally agree that workers did not must be slaves. However, this does not mean that all workers have equal accommodation. AERA excavations show that some of the more senior officials lived in large houses and had the best cuts of meat. In contrast, Lehner suspects, lower-level workers may have slept in simple houses or “rested” at the pyramids themselves.

Although the local government has announced that it will install railings to prevent people from approaching, this area is still a place that attracts many children to play. Previously, the government of Phushun city asserted that this strange architecture was built simply to adorn the urban beauty. Even to build the “Circle of Life”, city planners had to cancel 3 other works. Built in 2012, the “Circle of Life” architecture is about 153 meters high and is made from a giant 3,000-ton steel block. At night, the bracelet is lit with 12,000 LEDs. A viral video on Chinese social media shows children carefree climbing up and then sliding down excitedly from the curve of the “Circle of Life”. Although there are signs near this structure that prohibit visitors from approaching, children and parents still often come here to play. “It is difficult to prevent children from climbing, maybe the local government should install fences to prevent people from approaching”, “The budget should be used to build real slides, instead of building giant hoops this”, are 2 of the comments of Chinese netizens.

The construction of the statue started in early 2019, according to the idea of ​​Mayor Adroaldo Conzatti (who recently died because of COVID-19 at the end of March). According to Mr. Gilson Conzatti, project advisor who is also the son of the late Mayor A. Conzatti, the statue is named after Portuguese (the main language in Brazil) as “Protetor de Cristo” (God protect ). “The statue is 43m high including the pedestal, with 2 arms outstretched 36m. The statue is equipped with an elevator inside for visitors to the observatory above” – ​​adviser G. Conzatti said details. The Statue of Christ was built with a budget of 2 million real Brazilian money (BRL), equivalent to 353,000 USD, donated by the Friends of Jesus Association in Brazil in the form of socialization. This record statue will be inaugurated on the 90th anniversary of the famous statue of Christ the Redeemer 38m high in Rio De Janeiro. It is known that the nearly completed statue at Encantado is the third tallest statue of Jesus in the world, after the 92.55m high statue in Buntu Burake (Indonesia) and 52m high in Swiebodzin (Poland).

House made of 3D printing technology in the Netherlands. The Dutch couple are the first tenants of a house built with 3D printing technology in Europe. Experts believe that this unique design will open up a multitude of choices about the shape and style of future homes. Elize Lutz, 70 and Harrie Dekkers, 67 – two retired shop owners from Amsterdam – just received the house’s digital key on May 6. This key is an application that allows them to open the door with the touch of a button. “It is beautiful and feels safe” – 2 grandparents commented. “When I looked at the design, I saw it as a garden in a fairy tale” – Mrs. Lutz said. Inspired by the shape of a rock, this house would be difficult and expensive to build using traditional methods. This is the first 3D-designed house out of five planned by the construction company Saint-Gobain Weber Beamix for the site next to the Beatrix Canal in the Bosrijk suburb of Eindhoven. In the last two years, real estate built in part with 3D printing technology has appeared in France and the US. These nascent projects are also slowly growing around the world. But with an area of ​​94 square meters, this 3D house in the Netherlands is said to be a remarkable stand-out from its rivals when it is legally allowed to live inside. The Dutch couple is very pleased with their new home. Mr. Bas Huysmans – CEO of Weber Benelux – said: “This is also the first project that is 100% authorized by the local government and there are people who really want to pay to live in it”. The 3D printing method involves a giant robotic arm with a special formulation of a cement nozzle. Cement will be “printed” out according to the architect’s design layer after layer until a wall has enough bearing capacity. This nozzle will be replaced after hours of operation like an ink printer. That change also shows up on the walls of the house, like a small error in the cement printing process. Although in its infancy, the method of building houses with 3D printing has been evaluated by many in the construction industry as a solution to reduce costs and harm the environment by reducing the amount of cement used. In the Netherlands, this is also an alternative in the shortage of skilled masons. The cement stains on the walls of the house are caused by changing the nozzle of the cement after a few hours of operation. This 3D house consists of 24 concrete details, printed layer by layer in a factory in Eindhoven before being transported to the construction site by truck. It is based on a foundation made by Dutch construction company Van Wijinen. After that, the roof and window frames were installed and finished. For future homes, it is hoped that the construction will be done entirely on site. Another advantage of the house is that it prints in just 120 hours. “If we only print once and finish it, it will take less than 5 days. Because, the big benefit of the printer is that there is no need to eat, sleep or rest. If we start tomorrow, the next house will be completed in 5 days, ”said Mr. Huysmans.
