There is no doubt that floating in the height of the gardens will find practical application in contemporary and future construction. " In the German magazine "Gartenklaube" Speaking about the experience Rabittsa K., grow grapes on the roof of his house in Berlin, as the prospect of future large-scale construction of such gardens in the cities. In Russia, at the end of the XIX century. gardens adorned the roof of many buildings, mostly profitable buildings in Moscow and St. Petersburg. One of the first was an apartment house on Zaitseva Furshtadtskoy street north of the capital, built in 1877, Building "garden boom" was covered and the merchant class in Moscow.

On the cover of the block fuses are usually shown the icon, which one is responsible for the fan. He may look normal, but simply can not kontachit because of poor landing in the nest. Then it is enough bend contact petals or move a fuse. But if it is blown, the fuse needs to be changed. The second stage – check the temperature sensor. Find it easy: it is part of a radiator with protruding wires.
All these wires disconnected from the sensor and closes with each other, then turn on the ignition. If the fan is then spun, then the sensor is faulty. It can not be repaired – it is molded, but can go further, leaving the fan running, and the wires closed. If such a circuit wire gauge does not work, should be excluded from the scheme of the relay. To do so, remove it from the gearbox and replace a piece of wire, jacks control contact is bridged. What contact managers, to determine easily: under the scheme on the cover of the unit.
If this does not work, still with a conventional light bulbs with wires to check whether there is power to the motor fan. If the lamp when the ignition is not Off – no power, and so – lost contact somewhere in the connectors or harnesses. In such a situation rationally will not untwist harnesses (often they are virtually unavailable), and turn on the fan with a battery, using a piece of wire. The voltage on the fan there, but it does not rotate? Hence, the electric motor has failed. It's rare but it happens. You can continue to move cautiously, but the temperature gauge is the main instrument for you. If hand slightly closer to the red zone – stop, open the hood to cool the engine, and so until you reach the service. Another cause of engine overheating can be a thermostat. This device jams sometimes in closed, then the coolant begins to circulate, bypassing the radiator. This is easy to see – raising the hood, trying to touch the radiator. The radiator is cold, hot engine – the thermostat is closed. Sometimes it is enough knock something on the thermostat housing, so that he has opened. If this does not have to take it off. The process is not complicated, but troublesome. From the thermostat removed any tool to break down all the stuffing, then set it on place. The engine will now be a long time to warm up, but you can move. If the thermostat is jammed in the half-open state, it is difficult to diagnose: the radiator is hot, the fan working properly, but the engine still heated. The problem is that weakened the flow of fluid through the radiator, part circulates in the "small circle". If the diagnosis you are sure, feel free to break the thermostat, if not, turn the stove on high, open all windows and quietly go in repairs. Performance of the stove is usually enough to not overheat the engine completely. The pleasure of riding a little too, but you can get to the place.

Construction system is limited only by the displacement of bearing exterior walls of his plane over the entire height of the building. As a consequence, the variance of the vertical coordinate is feasible only by varying the shape and arrangement of balconies, loggias, bay windows. Box-solid buildings, erected by lifting covers have all the features of formation of monolithic structures, concreted in sliding formwork, but not only them. The method allows the mold lifting covers not only the tower, but also extended the building with any form of plan. The absence of external load-bearing structures in the free arrangement vertical supports makes it possible to seamlessly change the height of floors, use the technique of the gap in the outer walls of height with the introduction of open-air spaces ("etazherochnost"), which enriches the composition of the building and makes it Tekt-nichnost. Box-solid buildings, erected in the three-formwork, based on the frameless design scheme with a wide cross step and bearing interior walls or self-supporting outer longitudinal walls. Possibilities of the method of formation can be reduced to the availability of the terraces – benches in the plane or the plane of the building by moving the individual rectangular volumes, multiple step bearing walls, floor height and width of the casing, the possibility of a circular building housing the cells, the wide variation in the material and texture of the exterior walls – from bricks to panels of nebetonnyh materials. Large formwork method suitable for the erection of buildings of varying lengths, simple and complex plan, with supporting monolithic interior walls and ceilings and non-bearing exterior walls.
The method makes it possible to change the width of the building, give him a terraced form, use a variety of solutions curtain walls. In legkometallicheskih buildings complete delivery of certain restrictions in a large plastic volume to some extent compensated richness of color and texture. Metallic aluminum cladding anodized, using a wide range of colors. Facade surface is solved variously by variance cladding. By using different anodizing colors skins and layouts butt created graphically highlighted, half-timbered facades nature of the composition.
