Moses112:Asbestoes is good for fire resistance, but is a major health hazard. The main feature of asbestos that occurs in fiber bundles that are easy to have multiple small wires, high length to diameter ratios can be sheared. In addition, asbestos has high tensile strength and are flexible enough to be spun into a cloth or carpet fibers. Finally, they seem cellulose protein, which is an important part of the structure of plants. Asbestos Lung Cancer The silicate mineral in Asbestos has many important properties that make it extremely useful in the field of construction and others. Silicates tend to be fireproof, resistant to chemical effect, insulating against electricity, heat affected, and not readily biodegradable. It plays an important role in several areas. The advantages and disadvantages of asbestos Advantages. . Asbestos is a fire resistants. Asbestos, despite all its good qualities, also has some very negative side effects. A particular type of lung cancer called mesothelioma, is caused by asbestos. regular lung cancer may be a sign of asbestos poisoning as well. Furthermore, exposure to asbestos for other cancers such as gastrointestinal, colon, throat, has been connected, and Esophageal cancer. Finally, this silicate mineral can cause other problems such as asbestos warts, pleural plaques in the lungs, and diffuse pleural thickening. Because of the many disadvantages associated with asbestos and your health, it is now prohibited for various uses. But because of its professionals, there are industries that still use asbestos, if not treated to prevent people from peeling in the lungs and cause disease. If you or someone you know has developed mesothelioma a result dangerous asbestos you in dubai and united states but not in Nigeria. The mineral fibers of asbestos mixed into cement add longevity to the product. For example, asbestos cement roof shingles last on average 50 to 60 years. Advantages Inexpensive Cement is a fairly inexpensive construction material, as it is just the binder. The real cost comes in the additive material known to increase the strength of the concrete, called the "poz" so main disavantages of asbestoes is one, it causes cancer and when some neighbor children throw stones it damage the asbestoes i.e two. Aluminum roofing includes; longspan, stepped tiles, metcopo, stone coated and swiss metro tiles. In recent years, aluminum roofing has grown quickly in popularity because of the many advantages aluminum roofs offer to homeowners. Aluminum roofs are attractive, durable, energy-efficient, and increasingly affordable. In the past, aluminum was not a popular roofing material for cost reasons and because of concerns about the structural limitations of aluminum. Recent innovations have resolved the structural problems and decreased the cost of aluminum. FIND ROOFING PROS Benefits of Using Aluminum Roofing Aluminum is increasingly valued as a roofing material for many reasons. Aluminum is attractive and malleable and comes in a great variety of roofing types and designs, including standing seam, shake, shingle, tile, and slate. In many parts of Nigeria aluminum is offered in a wider range of gauges than steel. Aluminum can be formed into individual tiles or shingles or shaped into panels that mimic the look of shingles. It is also lightweight and easy to work with onsite, reducing labor costs for installation. Once installed, one of aluminum's most important advantages is its great durability. Aluminum roofing does not warp, crack, or burn and, unlike steel, it is extremely corrosion-resistant and does not rust-a significant advantage in coastal areas and areas with a great deal of precipitation or problems with acid rain. The Environmental Benefits of Aluminum Roofing Like other types of metal roofing, aluminum is also extremely energy-efficient. Studies have shown that metal roofs absorb 34% less heat than traditional asphalt shingles, reducing air-conditioning costs in summer, and, depending on the part of the country, homeowners who have switched to metal roofing have reported savings of up to 20% on heating and cooling bills. In addition, aluminum roofing is typically made up of 90% recycled material and is itself fully recyclable when necessary, making it one of the most environmentally sound building materials. Aluminium Roofing - Costs Now vs. Costs Later Aluminum's primary disadvantage is its cost. Aluminum's initial installation is more expensive than asbestoes. However, over its life cycle, aluminum has been shown to be extremely cost-efficient. Most traditional roofing materials must be replaced every 10-12 years. Aluminum roofing can last 50 years or more and is not subject to the cancer problems of asbestoes, If you install aluminum roofing, there is a very strong chance that you will never need to install a roof again. Disadvantages to Aluminum Roofs Aluminum is also less hail resistant than asbestoes especially on lower-grade roofs, but unlike some traditional roofing materials, it will not split or break. Finally, because of the recent rise in popularity of aluminum roofing, not all roofers are experienced with aluminum roofing installation but not like h$lbroker. |
