Brick murals are three-dimensional artistic expressions, most generally carved or sculpted, that utilize clay masonry as the primary material. Brick murals can be almost any size, are typically custom designed and are carefully constructed for indoor or outdoor applications.
Baptisteries were originally created when the church moved the ceremony of baptism from large, outdoor bodies of water to the inside of religious facilities. Baptisteries can be large enough for two people to occupy the space while one of the occupants is completely submerged, or baptism can be done in front of a baptismal font, which is a smaller, more portable furnishing, usually used for baptising babies.
Dental equipment includes the installed permanent equipment needed for use by dentists, oral surgeons, and orthodontists. This equipment includes, but is not limited to, dental chairs, x-ray machines, x-ray viewers, and specialized lighting. Most of this equipment has specific engineering and architectural requirements that should be considered when designing and engineering a dental environment. New technology is being developed constantly to improve the quality of patient care. Designing environments that can grow and change with technology is essential.
Playground equipment is recreational indoor and outdoor equipment designed to help children develop physical coordination, strength and flexibility while playing. Playgrounds provide an environment that encourages a child to develop both physically and mentally. Playground equipment is typically constructed from wood, metal or plastic. The use of plastic is becoming increasing popular because it is a softer material, is easier to install, and is available in a wide variety of colors to captivate a child's visual sense.
Rigging systems and controls have been used in theaters since as early as the 15th century. Originally the rigging consisted of wood pulleys and sand bags. Sailors were typically hired to operate the rigging because of their experience with ropes and heights. Today's modern rigging consists of steel sheaves, wire cables and steel counterweights. Fly towers and catwalks are used to run the rigging, lights and curtains. Many of today's systems are motorized and computer operated. Design and installation of stage rigging and equipment should be done by a professional to insure proper function and safety.
Entertainment equipment includes any installed equipment that is used for entertainment purposes. This equipment is usually large in scale and has to be coordinated with the architecture and engineering of the building structure.
Walk-in coolers are defined as an engineered, refrigerated storage room. They can be found in restaurants, food storage facilities, convenience stores, and research laboratories. A walk-in cooler should be able to maintain a temperature as low as 35 degrees F. They are pre-engineered or pre-fabricated units that come in both standard and custom sizes. Custom walk-in coolers can be manufactured to meet specific size and shape requirements.
