Why and When to Use Plenum Rated (CMP) Cable
If you're installing cables in buildings with drop ceilings and HVAC system – whether it's for a Wi-Fi network, signal booster, a distributed antenna system (DAS), or something else – understanding when you need plenum cables is critical. Plenum-cable requirements exist in almost every building code in the US. They're there to protect occupants from potentially fatally hazardous fumes.
What are the different cable ratings and who rates them?
When we talk about plenum and non-plenum cable, we are not talking about the type of cable (coaxial, Cat5e/Cat6 ethernet, HDMI, etc.), but rather the fire resistance of the jacket (outer covering) around the cable.

Wool Bricks? An Interesting Collaboration Between Scottish Sheep and Spanish Researchers
With the inevitability increase in the housing crises and the global climate change, it is more than ever essential to reduce our energy consumption and choose wisely construction materials.
Eco-Friendly building material is a type of material that doesn't harm the environment, whether in its production, use or disposal and can easily be recycled.
Using Eco-Friendly materials is hugely beneficial in the long run. Building a green home reduces carbon emissions significantly and saves energy, which results in saving money on energy bills. Researchers in Spain and Scotland have been experimenting with the strength qualities of modern forms of unfired clay bricks, discovering what have been dubbed wool bricks. They are an almost zero-carbon product that can be sourced using local materials and

Best Basement Waterproofing Sealer
While concrete may seem like an extremely strong building material, it is naturally porous and prone to water absorption. Beginning on the surface, concrete is filled with tiny pores and hairline cracks that extend throughout the material. While concrete may seem strong enough without any treatment, it is not as strong and protected as it can be. The tiny pores of a concrete slab and foundation can absorb water if not treated with a waterproofing concrete sealer. Basements are one of the most vulnerable areas of a home and if left untreated they are at high risk of flooding, excessive mold and mildew build-up and the passage of radon gases.
While trace amounts of moisture are not a problem, water that can physically pass through the concrete and drip through the walls will lead to mold and
