Why Your Home Should Have A Strong Timber Truss

There is no denying that the roof is possibly the most important feature of any home, building, or any property in general for that matter. The moment that there is a problem with a roof, someone is sure to notice the cause and effect. It isn’t a bold statement to suggest that all homes and buildings in the modern world that we live in should feature the spectacular and robust timber roof trusses, to utilize the cost effective and aesthetic benefits of such a fantastic and grand feature.

We have moved on from many outdated construction methods in various technology and industrial areas, such as the completely flat roof, due to the various problems they cause in regions with diverse weather conditions. The way we have combated these early methods is with the pitch, slanting roofs that are designed with the previously mentioned timber roof trusses.

The completely bespoke nature of their design ensures an individual experience and aesthetic for each property, with only the materials used being the same. The trusses are not a main part of the construction of the building; instead they simply rest securely on the top, essentially making them the foundation of the roof.

The design of the truss and their position within the buildings structure gives the roof a far more stable shield from the elements outside. The reinforced, strategically placed timber beams produce a lesser chance of any major damage or collapsing. This is where the cost effective side comes in, as any damage that occurs will most likely be to a single beam within the truss, making it far cheaper to make any necessary repairs.


Timber is a wonderfully strong material that lasts for a long period of time, withstands the various harsh weather conditions, and can be a substantial feature in your home for a rather appealing price.

Industrial Hose Reels & Their Conveniences

Wear and tear can occur if your hose is simply left out for extended periods of time in a hectic, possibly dangerous, working environment. Industrial hoses on a reel keep everything within the application in top condition, removing the chances of unnecessary damage that will require a replacement and subsequently a large cost. The organisation of several industrial hoses in one business can be an absolute nightmare. The space that is required when storing a regular hose can become quite detrimental, so utilising the space saving benefits of a hose reel can save on space and provide a storage area for so much more. Retractable hose reels are designed with features that allow them to be easily mounted on to walls and ceilings, leaving you to utilise the maximum amount of storage and work space as possible. Other reels are designed to be mounted on trucks and heavy duty vans, so if you happen to have a fleet of vehicles that are capable of having reels fixed to them, you can com...

The Basics Behind Industrial Hoses

Industrial hoses are an incredibly useful tool in a variety of manufacturing and production processes. Their characteristics and accessories can be equally variable, so it is vitally important that you know the basics of an industrial hose and how they can benefit the efficiency of workflow within your industry sector. Here we will look at the precise specifications that contribute to industrial hoses. An industrial hose is a flexible container that takes a shape similar to a pipe, and is quite often made of rubber. These “pipes” are used to transport liquids, gases and certain solids from one part of a machine to another, or even a completely different area of the building. Household hoses that a majority of people are familiar with will usually include the common garden hose; however, industrial hoses are used when larger volumes of substances are in need of transportation. Hoses transport those substances via their water-tight lining made of plastic or rubber, which is als...

Chemical Analysis, NAP XPS

NAP XPS is a less traditional form of XPS (x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), it allows for samples to be analysed at relatively high pressures. Through using the NAP XPS, the XPS can efficiently and effectively probe biological samples, porous materials, moderately volatile liquids or even polymeric materials that outgas significantly.  Chemical analysis is the act of decomposing a substance into its constituent elements. Chemical analysis, which heavily relies on the use of accurate measurements, is divided into two categories depending on the manner in which the assays (the process of determining proportions of metals) are conducted. Classical analysis, also known as wet chemical analysis, is made up of analytical techniques which require no mechanical or electronic instruments other than a balance. This method usually relies on chemical reactions between the material being analysed and a reagent that is added to the material. Wet techniques often depend on the ...
