The buildings erected can be divided into two broad classifications: they are either for housing or for industrial purposes. As far as material is concerned the buildings can be divided into stone, wood and concrete types. The buildings made of stone; brick or concrete blocks are durable, fireproof and have poor heat conductivity. Nowadays houses are often built of complete structural units which

are factory-made and assembled on the spot. The main parts of a building are a foundation, a framework, floors and a roof. In order to build a house first an excavation must be dug. After that the foundation

is constructed to keep the walls and floors from the contact with soil. It may be of stone, bricks, concrete. Then a framework is raised. It is the part of a building on which the stability of the structure depends. This part of a building carries the loads from the roof and floors. The framework is closed with various materials in the form of panels. Floors divide the building into stories. They may be of timber, reinforced concrete or other materials. The floors are supported on beams. A roof is the topmost part of a building. Its function is to cover the building and protect it from rain and wind. Roofs also tie the walls and give strength and firmness to the structure. Wood, metal, tiling, bitumen felt and other materials are used for roofs.

Today builders make use of many materials: aluminum, plastics, alloys, reinforced concrete panels, prestressed concrete elements, metal frames. Glassfiber reinforced concrete is considered the ideal material, which will provide the desired qualities. Among these characteristics are the material’s lightness and ease of handling, its strength and durability, its visual attractiveness and cost 53 effectiveness.
