    Then nung nagagawa father in law ko ng roof nila na concrete slab din, nilagyan nila ng yero na palaman sa loob ng concrete mismo. I wish we knew that bago kami nagpa gawa.

    We are planning on adding 3rd floor and we will apply that on the 3rd floor roof.

    Bro. check out membrane waterproofing. We have this for our approx 60sqm balcony which also is our roof for our rides, and thankfully, after more than 15 years, no leak...

    Be wary though of seepage under the membrane...

    Thinking about your experience, baka seepage under your waterproofing material?

    Yes, I think seapage nga, iniisip ko sa mga kanto baka hindi fully covered yung kanto. Yung tubig kasi na pumapasok sa bahay eh hindi naman tulo from the roof eh. Parang katas from wall.

    Yes, leak was something like katas....

    Bro - to share my experience, we flooded the balcony for a couple of days, no leak.

    Then after a few days of rain, traces of leak appeared, so we removed the cement and the membrane, redid the construction and we flooded the balcony again - no leak.

    Then it rained again - there was leak again, and so we put waterproofing material on the side wall of the balcony, the one adjacent to the rain drain of my neighbor... No more leak after that....

    Thanks for the tip. Balak namin lagyan na ng roof 3rd floor and address the side walls, mukhanh side walls nga problema. Katabi kasi namin yung bahay ng in laws and naka slope papunta sa min ung roof nila. I think we need to add waterproofing din sa side na yun.

    OK na sa kin seapage sa wall, wag lang bunabaha sa 2nd floor, delikado sa electronics.

    Open the windows to curb COVID spread, say experts

    PARIS — Opening windows and ventilating spaces should be at the heart of efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19, a group of experts said Thursday, arguing that confusion over airborne transmission meant this simple measure was being overlooked.

    Mounting evidence convinced many places to adopt mask-wearing recommendations and health authorities have for months said that crowded, badly ventilated indoor spaces are a particular risk.

    The virus is most likely to spread through inhalation at close range rather than through contact with surfaces or at long range, said respiratory experts said in a commentary published in the BMJ medical journal.

    But despite this, the role of aerosol transmission gets “only a cursory mention in some infection control guidelines.”

    “People are much more likely to become infected in a room with windows that can’t be opened or lacking any ventilation system,” they said.

    The authors, including Julian Tang from the University of Leicester and Linsey Marr from Virginia Tech, said part of the problem has been a lack of clarity in the definition of terms such as “droplet” and “airborne” when describing transmission.

    “Essentially, if you can inhale particles — regardless of their size or name — you are breathing in aerosols,” they said.

    “Although this can happen at long range, it is more likely when close to someone, as the aerosols between two people are much more concentrated at short range, rather like being close to someone who’s smoking.”

    At the beginning of the pandemic, health authorities, including the World Health Organization (WHO), discounted the possibility that simply breathing could send infectious micro-droplets into the air.

    But they did a U-turn as experts piled on pressure and evidence mounted.

    The BMJ commentary said precautions like wearing masks, keeping one’s distance, and reducing crowding in indoor spaces would all help curb viral spread, whether it was through inhaled particles or direct contact with surfaces.

    But it stressed that a crucial difference was “the need for added emphasis on ventilation because the tiniest suspended particles can remain airborne for hours, and these constitute an important route of transmission.”

    In March, the WHO released a guidance document encouraging better ventilation in buildings.

    It said that while “knowledge gaps” remain, the transmission of the new coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 that causes COVID-19 is particularly effective in crowded, confined indoor spaces where there is poor or no ventilation.

    Bakit ang isang tree hugger behaviorist kagaya ko eh tinatalo ko dsikarte ng engineer architect interiior designer eh napakabasic nito. FLOW OF THE AIR!!!!!

    Ang dami mali sa design ng mga bahay ngayon. Lalo na yung gated type salubong townhouse eh barado hangin.

    Tsikoteers paano ba yan mga views tumutumpak na naman!!!!

    Am I troll?????
