One of the more critical issues facing the performance of products in the underground construction sector is to be completely flame retardant in a potentially combustible environment. This is especially applicable to ventilation products, which carry the extra burden of maintaining air quality for the people associated with such large scale projects. Ducting specialist Eximo says this important OH&S factor was the steeling point behind development of its MobyDuct product – which combines relocatability with strict adherence to underground application safety guidelines. MobyDuct filled a huge gap in the underground construction market by combining these two performance capabilities. Underground construction – which includes road tunnels, high rise commercial building, mines and aqueducts among other projects – has long been conscious of occupational health and safety requirements.
Most owners choose the floor plan, finishes and fixtures that go into their custom-built homes. Juan Guevara made those choices and more. He selected each interior and exterior component and confirmed every detail in building his $1 million home in Delaware County. He also hand-picked the roofer, framer, excavator, drywall installer and a host of other subcontractors. Guevara made the decision to be his own general contractor, a choice more homeowners are making in projects big and small. He said his decision to manage the project has saved him a significant amount of money and given him more control over the project. "We went to many custom builders and found that, with the money we would save, we could have more house. I expect to save about $200,000," he said. "With a builder, you dont have as much control." Guevara, the owner of a flooringinstallation company, now has a second full-time job making sure the subcontractors show up when they are needed and that they follow the detailed plans drawn by an architect.
