Attic Ventilation

• Allows water vapor to escape and keeps the house cooler in the summer by preventing solar heat

• Four types:– Soffit vent- creates the required intake ventilation at the eave– Ridge vent- effective because its located at highest point on roof– Gabled vent- located high in the wall at opposite ends of the attic. Helps

create cross draft in a wind– Through roof vents- resemble inverted cake pans and are flashed into

roofing material

Concrete Joints

•Control joint- an intentional, linear discontinuity in a structure or component, designed to form a plane of weakness where cracking can occur in response to various forces so as to minimize or eliminate cracking elsewhere in the structure

• Isolation Joint- joints that isolate the slab from the wall, column, or drainpipe • Isolating slab from wall

Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU)

• A block of hardened concrete, with or without hollow cores, designed to be laid in the same manner as a brick or stone.

• Most common block dimensions 8x8x16

• Notice that the height of 3 modular stacked bricks is equal to 1 CMU block

• Different size CMU
