    Building a building? how to start... (correction please) I'm going to start talking about foundations, maybe the first topic we should start talking about when you are decided to build a house. Well, some of you could say that's not the first thing, maybe we should know before spectatives of the building, program, like how many rooms, floors, etc... but I'm going to talk about construction, not design. Ok, so, in general there are two posibilities of foundations we could have, superficial foundadions (footings) and deep foundations (containing walls and piles). There are different kind of footings as well as different kind of containing walls and piles, but this topic will be an other entrance to my notebook. Depending on characteristics soil and loads of building we should choose the type of foundations (well, maybe architects or engineer do) Most of foundations are made of concrete, it is a mix of sand, gravel, cement and water, and maybe other admixtures to modify some of its characteristics. Next thing should be the working proccess of any of this kind of job. Any questions?

    No es la primera vez.

    A veces escribo aquí para ver si verdaderamente he aprendido algo de gramática que estudié, porque estoy segura de que lo he comprendido todo, pero cuando leo las correcciones de los demás a veces estoy más confundida que antes. Eso me pasa también con inglés, en realidad, me pasa sobre todo con el inglés. Hay amigos españoles que me siguen desde hace tiempo, desde hace que me inscribí aquí, amigos a los quien doy las gracias porque con sus ayuda he progresado mucho (al menos espero que sea así), y después hay personas que "van de paseo" a leer y corregir notas. Lo mismo hago yo, "voy de paseo" a leer notas y me la lo paso bien leyendo las correcciones, y me he dado cuenta de que, a veces, los italianos también corrigen de forma no apropiada. Y lo peor es cuando quien te va a corregir no es nativo hablante del idioma que estamos aprendiendo y tampoco tiene un nivel más alto que el nuestro. Sé que a veces están hay/hacen diferentes correcciones porque se puede decir la misma frase utilizando otras palabras y otros verbos pero hay algo que no comprendo, por ejemplo...¿tengo que decir "quiero hablar español diaria / a diario / diariamente"?
    Os lo pido de rodillas, ayudadme. (Me gustaba utilizar palabras que acabo de aprender, "pedir de rodillas") :-)
    ¡Que tengáis un buen día!

     

     

    PD. Tu español es muy bueno!

    Hello, 

    I am a boargamer too, and the last boardgame i tryed was Casttles of Burgundy or something like that. It's a game that you have to build some kind of villages in your board while you buy defferent tiles of buildings and things on main board. You have to choose the actions depending on a two dies throw. Well, and more things obviously...

    I have tried many different boardgames, i think best are Agricola, Puerto Rico, Cavern ( similar to agricola), Luna, Seven wonders, Dominion. As you can see, different kind of boardgames and playway.

    What kind of boardgames do you like? Have you tried any of theese?

    Engineering, architecture and music (correction please) In order to prepare a visit, lets see if I can reach an agreement about the topics I could do the lectures, this way I can prepare a short english power point or something like that... I think it makes no sense to talk about general topics of architecture, maybe I could talk about a singular proyect I was involved in 2010, it is a renovation of an old and unused underground train tunnel to a music concert hall and several rooms where music bands can practice and record on their own. This tunnel have been closed the last 30 years, it is placed in the city, under a cross of two streets and a square. It's about 120 meters long, 8 wide and 8 high, and can afford about 500 people. It has an stage, a radio station room, several trainning rooms for music bands, a dance room, all of them totally refurbished. We had to make new concrete pavements, create rooms with special noise insulation plasteboard on walls and ceiling, acoustic surface treatments with sound absorbing materials. One of the troubles we had during this construction was when we had to make a new entrance to the tunnel, we had to dig to reach 12 meters down, and when we started this task soil started to crumble, material was poor and loose. The way we were going to build this new entrance was with concrete walls, but we had to change it and solve it with a wall of piles. And other special task we had to do was to hold a 1 meter thick and 8 high concrete wall, that supported part of the square of the surface, to create a new door 4 meter wide and 2,5 high, placing a new lintel to supports loads of upper square. It really was an interesting work, we finished it with no accidents and on time.

    Construction vocabulary Today I'm going to write about my new task, lecturer in a foreign languaje in an other country, about a thoushand kilometers far away from my town. The country I'm talking about is Denmark, I don`t know Danish, so my lectures will be in English. I am a building construction ingenieer, a quantity surveyor, and topics on my lectures will be related with my profession, so I really need someone who can help me improving my spoken English and technicall vocabulary related with biulding construction engineer and its materials. Well, topics I will teach on aren't defined yet, but I suppose it would be something about building foundations, facades and roofs, ways to build, and different solutions. Abviously theese solutions are based in Spanish construction, a bit different from other countries solutions, first reason because of the weather, then because here there is a hand made way to build biuldings, we use prefabricated, but not at all, it's not very extendend yet, in fact, people here think that prefabricated construction is worst than in situ construction. So, lets see if someone can help me!
