Mounting vs. Burying The Wire

How you decide to bury or mount the wire is entirely up to you and your planned layout. You can even do a combination of both - burying most of it but using a conveniently placed fence to mount the wire that runs along the fence line. Whether you bury or mount your wire depends in large part on the area you are fencing. For regularly mowed lawn it is best to bury the wire. For areas where you do not mow, or where digging would be impossible, you can simply lay the wire above ground and use lawn staples to hold it in place. The dog fence wire can also be mounted on convenient trees or existing fencing. In many situations professional dog fence installers and homeowners alike chose not to bury the dog fence wire, but rather use dog fence ground staples to secure the wire tightly to the ground, eventually the grass grows around the wire and hides it for better asthetic value.

Whether you choose to mount or bury the wire is in large part dependent on the terrain where you plan to install your electric dog fence. There are many reasons to bury the wire and just as many reasons to mount the wire.

After years of city planning and public forums, another year of designing, sculpting and painting and a month-and-a-half of installation, Daydreamer, Ashevilles newest piece of public art, is finished. Asheville muralists Alex Irvine and Ian Wilkinson took down their scaffolding on Wednesday, Nov. 5, revealing the first unobstructed view of the new work.

WHAT: Unveiling of Daydreamer mural by Asheville artists Alex Irvine and Ian Wilkinson WHERE: 51 Biltmore Ave., north side of Aloft Hotel WHEN: Saturday, Nov. 8, at noon. Free to attend

Daydreamer, formerly known as the 51 Biltmore Public Art Project, is located at the north entrance of the Aloft Hotel parking garage. To celebrate its completion, the City of Asheville and the Public Art and Cultural Commission will host an unveiling ceremony on Saturday, Nov. 8 at noon. An artists reception will follow in the hotel lobby.

The work features a daydreaming woman known as Mary gazing out from an arch-topped windowsill. Stylistically, it combines Ashevilles legacy of Art Deco architecture with modern design and Alofts color scheme. Asheville has a rich terracotta history, and thats inspiring to me, Irvine says.

Irvine, a ceramicist, and Wilkinson, a painter, blended design elements they found in facades like Douglas Ellingtons S&W Building and Asheville City Hall. If you live somewhere and youre going to make a piece of public art there, you need to look into the local history to make it relate to its surroundings, said Irvine.

The central figure, for instance, is backdropped by a deco horseshoe pattern in homage to a farrier who once operated on the site. The artists also temporarily included a nod to the Hot Dog King, a fast-food restaurant that was torn down in 2011 to make way for the hotel. That latter inspiration came from a public discussion forum. Somebody wrote that in to make the mural a monument to the Hot Dog King,says Wilkinson. He and Irvine opted for something smaller and made the restaurants logo a hot dog mid-stride, with crown in hand the keystone at the top of the illustrated archway. The logo has since been covered up by a decorative and more traditional keystone.

The installation process went smoothly for the most part. However, there were a series of unforeseen set-up issues, including the need for pedestrian-friendly scaffolding and structural reinforcement, that set the project nearly $5,000 over its original $25,000 budget. We had to structurally reinforce the wall, Wilkinson says. Anyone taking on this project would have been in the same position.

Irvine and Wilkinson enlisted Robert Steffen, a professor of engineering at Western Carolina University, to help with reinforcing the walls. The task required threading rebar anchors and stainless steel wiring into the existing wall. This was in addition to an industrial strength epoxy used to adhere the tiles to the wall. The epoxy was strong enough by itself, but the wall required the additional reinforcement for safety compliance.

Even when we tested the work with no metal fastener at all just the tile, epoxy and the cinder block we never found the shear strength, Wilkinson says. The cinder block would always break first. The bond, meanwhile surpassed 7,000 pounds of pressure.

Its used on bridges and skyscrapers, Irvine says. Its also incredibly toxic. And, like household epoxies, it has to be mixed and applied by hand. Irvine and Wilkinson joke that the extra work, though frustrating, ultimately improved the strength and safety of both the artwork and the building.

Construction on Kimberley's unique SunMine project, the largest solar farm in western Canada, is proceeding on pace.

According to the latest project update, last week the Prime Contractor Conergy Canada and construction manager SkyFire Energy completed the installation of all 4,032 photovoltaic modules.

Modules are now arranged in ninety six 38 foot by 20 foot tables and have been mounted on masts topped with a specialized tracking system that will rotate to track the sun. There are 42 photovoltaic modules per table top. Once the installation and commissioning is complete the table tops in the picture (right) will tilt at similar angles to maximize solar exposure and energy generation.

Trackers provide approximately 30 per cent more energy than fixed panels.

The trackers' sensors also feature load sensing capabilities and will increase the tilt angle to dump snow as needed and adjust the tilt angle to reduce windload. Performance will be digitally monitored by a data acquisition and monitoring system.

Construction continues on pace for operation in early 2015. Mayor Ron McRae says that it looks like everything will be ready to go in January.

In parallel to the tracker installation, trenching and installation of cabling is complete and electricians have begun wiring the trackers and connecting the string inverters that convert the suns energy into electricity that is suitable for delivery via a powerline to the BC Hydro system. String inverters allow for segmented power production in the solar array, providing more power production than centralized inverters which have been historically more popular.

SEOUL, South Korea An Inspector Generals report has cited hundreds of potentially dangerous housing code violations, ranging from missing sprinkler systems to exposed copper wiring, in U.S. military housing in South Korea, although only 11 were considered serious.

Most of the violations were related to inadequate upkeep of housing facilities, according to the Oct. 28 report, which found that housing visits and inspections were not being conducted in accordance with established instructions and procedures.

Twelve percent of the occupied buildings at 13 U.S. Forces Korea military installations ranging from family housing to barracks and dormitories for unaccompanied servicemembers were reviewed during the IGs March 10 to April 24 inspections. The checks found 646 deficiencies in 277 units, mechanical rooms and common areas.

The 11 critical deficiencies included an out-of-service fire alarm system at U.S. Army Garrison Yongsan, which left the occupants of one building with no means of fire detection. Furnaces in two other buildings at the Seoul base were leaking heating oil onto an electric blower motor, posing a fire hazard.

At Camp Jackson, one building was not electrically grounded according to code, posing the possibility of electrocution. Four buildings at Camp Bonifas lacked carbon monoxide alarms.

An improperly bonded conductor at Camp Stanley posed a fire, shock and electrocution risk, and four buildings lacked carbon monoxide alarms.

Camp Humphreys had three fire or electrocution risks, including a building that was not grounded per code and an extension drop cord in another that was improperly wired. Energized copper wire was exposed in an elevator equipment room.

The 11 violations were deemed critical enough to require immediate attention; all have been corrected since the spring inspections or were expected to be completed last summer, according to correspondence from installation officials included in the IG report.

The health and safety of our service members and their families in Korea is a top priority, USFK said in an email. As a result, the affected service components have taken and continue to take corrective action.

Overall, the IG inspection found poor record keeping and overworked housing workers.
