The floor is supported by a framework of vertical pedestals; the 2' x 2' metal and concrete floor tiles are laid into place and secured by screws.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dEqw5gXVsG4/Sbg6ZrJ9nrI/AAAAAAAAAs0/-dKZahrwzQw/s1600-h/IMG_0276.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dEqw5gXVsG4/Sbg6ZrJ9nrI/AAAAAAAAAs0/-dKZahrwzQw/s320/IMG_0276.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312059973239152306" /></a>There are many benefits to having a raised floor, including the creation of a 'crawl space' type area for re-routing electrical wires and cabling. This ensures ease of building expansion - down the road, if we need to install a new electrical outlet or a new computer - the wires can be placed with a minimum of hassle.<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dEqw5gXVsG4/Sbg6_C1hLII/AAAAAAAAAs8/dbnyEudGvMA/s1600-h/IMG_0269.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_dEqw5gXVsG4/Sbg6_C1hLII/AAAAAAAAAs8/dbnyEudGvMA/s320/IMG_0269.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312060615251012738" /></a>Another benefit is the way the plenum works with our Heating/Ventilation/Air Conditioning unit (HVAC). All of the ductwork attached to the HVAC will funnel the air directly to vents located in the floor, thereby heating and cooling people the closest to where they are - near the floor.Plautiahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14295194045881295175noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8279788322533519953.post-87702077569086965622009-03-04T16:42:00.001-07:002009-03-11T17:53:01.286-06:00Photo UpdatesView towards fireplace of the beautiful glu-lam beams.

From there, warm and cool air will circulate through the building via the sub-floor duct system.<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/Sbg_vubMPKI/AAAAAAAAARw/xPrM_JOV06w/s1600-h/IMG_0291.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/Sbg_vubMPKI/AAAAAAAAARw/xPrM_JOV06w/s320/IMG_0291.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312065849631980706" /></a><br />This tangential duct originates from the Transpired Solar Collector Wall, located on the south side of the building. During the winter months, accumulated heat will travel from the Collector Wall to the HVAC system, reducing the workload of the heating system. This results in lower energy useage.<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/Sbg_vD0HlEI/AAAAAAAAARo/4KE80B66sOo/s1600-h/IMG_0292.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/Sbg_vD0HlEI/AAAAAAAAARo/4KE80B66sOo/s320/IMG_0292.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312065838193808450" /></a><br />Construction site humor.<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/Sbg_u4O2gBI/AAAAAAAAARg/uCbQlev6UzA/s1600-h/IMG_0289.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/Sbg_u4O2gBI/AAAAAAAAARg/uCbQlev6UzA/s320/IMG_0289.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5312065835084709906" /></a>Mancos Public Libraryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03862873350278852246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8279788322533519953.post-47927722474052528852009-03-01T10:45:00.002-07:002009-03-03T10:52:42.402-07:00Friends Host Community ReceptionSaturday evening the Mancos Friends of the Library hosted a Reception for New Library Updates and Progress.

The stones will be mixed into the foundation for the new library.<br /><br />The first shovels of dirt were thrown to cheers and whistles! <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/SCPuQ8bz1EI/AAAAAAAAAIg/TdrGlmu079E/s1600-h/2008Groundbreaking+019.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/SCPuQ8bz1EI/AAAAAAAAAIg/TdrGlmu079E/s320/2008Groundbreaking+019.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198260369783772226" /></a> We all know that the next ten months will fly by (and at times seem <i>so</i> long), and this day is the first step in the journey to the new Mancos Public Library.<br /><br />Closing the ceremony were the bagpipers; the entire group then walked back across the footbridge to the Mancos Community Center, where delicious appetizers were enjoyed, and lively discussions about the construction took place.<br /><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/SCPupcbz1FI/AAAAAAAAAIo/KrsTTeCwaes/s1600-h/2008Groundbreaking+028.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_lc1yaZVRsj0/SCPupcbz1FI/AAAAAAAAAIo/KrsTTeCwaes/s320/2008Groundbreaking+028.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5198260790690567250" /></a><br />The Mancos Public Library would like to thank everyone that has worked so hard and diligently to help us realize our dream of a new library.<br /><br />Please view all the Groundbreaking Day photos in our <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/10329954@N04/sets/72157604959297520/">Flickr Web Album</a>.Mancos Public Libraryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03862873350278852246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8279788322533519953.post-9947445339913282792008-05-07T19:04:00.001-06:002008-09-12T06:51:36.207-06:00Official Groundbreaking Videos<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/eX37TwNzeHQ&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/eX37TwNzeHQ&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Opening Procession with Bagpipes.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5pqZLPpuCkU"> </param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5pqZLPpuCkU" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"> </embed> </object><br />Board Members taking out the 'First Shovels'.Mancos Public Libraryhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03862873350278852246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8279788322533519953.post-59743814569188988842008-05-06T08:52:00.000-06:002008-05-07T08:54:33.300-06:00KSJD Radio InterviewPatsy Smith, Director, and Robin Strother, President of the Library Board, will appear on the KSJD (91.5 FM) radio talk show, Zine, on Wednesday, 7 May 2008.
