![]() ![]() Use our paver base calculator to estimate the amount of gravel and sand you need for the base of your paver project. To estimate the amount of gravel and sand required, you must find the sq ft of your patio and then find the volume necessary for a 4″ to 6″ layer of compacted gravel and a 1″ layer of sand. We recommend starting with a base of 4″ to 6″ of compacted gravel topped with 1″ of sand, which is an industry-standard for most patio installations. ![]() When installing pavers, you must have a solid base to support the patio and prevent settling over time. How to Estimate the Base for a Paver Installation You can learn more about the various patterns available in our list of paver layout patterns. ![]() Keep in mind that patterns sold in multiple pieces like this may require you to order minimums, in which case, it’s often enough to round up to the nearest full pattern required. Then you can multiply that by the number of pavers in the pattern to find the total of each size needed.Īs with patterns made of a single size, always order at least 20% more material to account for waste. Then, divide the total area in square feet by the size of the pattern to find the total number of pattern repeats you’ll need. So, the square footage of the pavers is equal to their length in inches multiplied by their width in inches, divided by 144. Paver sq ft = length (in) × width (in) / 144 Since the measurements of the pavers are in inches, you can use the following formula to find their square footage. Measure the dimensions of the paver in inches, then apply a variation of the square footage formula above. The next step is to find the square footage of the paver you want to use. Thus, square footage is equal to the length in feet multiplied by the width in feet. The first step to estimate how many pavers you need for any patio, walkway, or driveway installation is to measure the area of the project you’ll need to measure the length and width of the area in feet.Ĭalculate the square footage by multiplying the width by the length, or use a square footage calculator to find the square footage of areas that are not rectangular. Follow the three simple steps below to easily estimate your materials. An important component in planning your project is to determine how many pavers you need. ![]()

![]() ![]() Nintendo had also decided upon using a motion sensor, infrared pointer, and the layout of the buttons, and by the end of 2005 the controller was ready for mass production. By "late 2004, early 2005", however, Nintendo had come up with the Wii Remote's less traditional "wand shape", and the design of the Nunchuk attachment. Under requirement to "roughly preserve the existing Game Cube button layout", it experimented with different forms "through sketches, models and interviewing various hardcore gamers". At this point, Gyration brought in a separate design firm, Bridge Design, to help pitch its concept to Nintendo. Nintendo then commissioned Gyration to create a one-handed controller for it, which eventually became the "Gyropod", a more traditional gamepad which allowed its right half to break away for motion-control. Gyration had previously pitched their idea and patents of a motion controller to Sony and Microsoft, who both declined. In that year, Nintendo licensed a number of motion-sensing patents from Gyration Inc., a company that produces wireless motion-sensing computer mice. The Wii U's successor, the Nintendo Switch, features a follow-up named Joy-Con.ĭevelopment of a motion-enabled controller began when development of the Wii console started in 2001. The Wii's successor console, the Wii U, supports the Wii Remote and its peripherals in games where use of the features of the Wii U GamePad is not mandated. It received much attention due to its unique features, not supported by other gaming controllers. The finalized version of the controller was later shown at E3 2006. The controller was revealed at the Tokyo Game Show on September 14, 2005, with the name "Wii Remote" announced April 27, 2006. Some other attachments include the Classic Controller, Wii Zapper, and the Wii Wheel, which was originally released with the racing game, Mario Kart Wii. The attachment bundled with the Wii console is the Nunchuk, which complements the Wii Remote by providing functions similar to those in gamepad controllers. ![]() An essential capability of the Wii Remote is its motion sensing capability, which allows the user to interact with and manipulate items on screen via motion sensing, gesture recognition, and pointing using an accelerometer and optical sensor technology. The Wii Remote, also known colloquially as the Wiimote, is the primary game controller for Nintendo's Wii home video game console. ![]() ![]() ![]() Excel recommends charts best suited for your data, and gives you a preview how your data will look. ![]() New modern charts and graphs in Excel give you more ways to explore and tell compelling stories with your business data.New tools recognize your pattern and auto-complete data. ![]()
![]() Unfortunately, this perspective ignores minorities and is unable to explain inequality except to say that it must have a social function-it must make society more adaptable-simply because inequality has always existed. One of its basic premises is that society is structured to do the greatest good for the greatest number of people. It also describes the various elements of society that maintain that balance. However, Functionalism sees the social structure as creating equilibrium or balance. This paradigm, like the Conflict paradigm, is very interested in the structure of society and how it impacts people's lives. ![]() The Functionalist paradigm does a very good job of explaining the ways in which the institutions of society (the family, education, religion, law/politics/government, the economy, medicine, media) work together to create social solidarity (a social contract in which society as a whole agrees upon the rules of social behavior and agrees, more or less, to abide by those rules) and to maintain balance in society.įunctionalism, or Structural Functionalism, or the Functionalist paradigm describes the elements in society that create social stability FOR THE GREATEST NUMBER OF PEOPLE. This is a macro-level paradigm that describes large-scale processes and large- scale social systems it is uninterested in individual behavior. Functionalism argues that a stable society is the best possible society and any element that helps to maintain that stability must add to the adaptability (functionality) of society. ![]() Functionalism argues that the social structure is responsible for all stability and instability, and that that the social structure is continuously attempting to maintain social equilibrium (balance) among all of the components of society. The Functionalist paradigm describes society as stable and describes all of the various mechanisms that maintain social stability. The Functionalist Paradigm (Structural Functionalism) The Conflict Paradigm’s Explanation of Socialization Thus, the terrorists (as representatives of the Proletariat), attacked, or attempted to attack, the centers of American power: the World Trade Center (economic power), the Pentagon (military power), and the U.S. and Western Europe have supported dictatorial regimes, ignored human rights abuses, and generally turned their backs on the plight of the majority of Middle Easterners and Muslims in general throughout the world. The Bourgeoisie (the United States and most of Western Europe) has exploited for decades the people and natural resources of the Middle East without offering economic and educational support to the people. ![]() TheSeptemterrorist attack was caused by American foreign policy vis á vis the Middle East as a whole, the first Gulf War, American support of the Israeli government and Israel’s treatment of its Palestinian population. The war in Iraq which began in 2003, according to the Conflict paradigm, was being fought in order to extend the power and control of the United States, and to create an American empire in the non-white, non-Christian world. When we are analyzing any element of society from this perspective, we need to look at the structures of wealth, power, and status and the ways in which those structures maintain the social, economic, political, and coercive power of one group at the expense of all other groups. Every society is plagued by inequality based on social differences among the dominant group and all of the other groups in society, according to the Conflict paradigm. ![]() SES is an abbreviation of socio economic status and is comprised of the combined effects of income, education, and occupation. Conflict is particularly interested in the inequalities that exist based on all of the various aspects of master status-race or ethnicity, sex or gender, age, religion, ability or disability, and SES. The Conflict paradigm describes the inequalities that exist in all societies around the globe. The Conflict paradigm does a very good job of explaining racism, sexism, ageism, socioeconomic inequality (wealth and poverty), etc. ![]() ![]() Still looking for other Aftermarket Performance Parts?

Now when it comes to modifying front springs to lower a car, I'm sure there are also sound engineering and safety reasons why not to do this at all, but they're not coming to the front of my mind at the moment. Granted, I'm sure Eaton's rep has a somewhat jaundiced view of this since they're in the business to manufacture and sell springs, but from an engineering standpoint it makes all the sense in the world to the lowly architect that I am. The recommendation the person from Eaton Spring had was, as Novanutcase suggested, dearching the spring, or having a new spring made to the specifications you need for your adjusted ride height. Altering a driveline's geometry may result in lovely little things happening like premature U-joint or differential gear/bearing wear/failure, maybe even binding in a severe situation. Does any one know if any companies make lowering springs for the front of the 63 tbird or do I just need to go on the cheap and cut the springs. ![]() This isn't even considering the change in angle in the driveshaft between the output shaft at the rear of the transmission and the front input yoke of the differential gear carrier (it's typically preferred to have a slight (3-degree) angle in the driveshaft). ![]() In short, you're creating a lever for the axle housing that allows it to pivot/move further than if it was sitting directly on top of the spring, especially during acceleration/spring wind-up. ![]() Lowering blocks were a low-buck, backyard engineering-type of modification that, while easy and simple to do, may end up presenting more problems than you're aware of. ![]() I watched a web video on automotive restoration/modification over the weekend via a link on The Lincoln Forum that had a person from Eaton Spring advising NOT to use lowering blocks as this alters the geometry and creates a fulcrum (?) between the spring and axle center-line. ![]() ![]() ![]() Featuring more cars (40+), more tools (10+), more options and more parts (1000+) than ever before.

![]() ![]() Over the past decade, rising attention to vaccine hesitancy and NMEs has prompted several state legislatures to introduce, consider, and in some cases enact new exemption laws. Understanding the spatial and social patterning of NMEs is therefore critical to infectious disease prevention and control efforts. ![]() Where NME rates are high enough to compromise herd immunity at the local level, the risk of vaccine-preventable disease outbreak increases. Furthermore, NMEs from school-entry immunization mandates are receiving increased policy and public health scrutiny because exemption rates within and across schools have significant epidemiological implications. 3,7 This increase in vaccine hesitancy can be seen at the point of school entry in the rising rates of NMEs. 4,5 Although some have argued that NMEs should not be allowed because parents who choose not to immunize their children put their own children and others at risk, 6 others believe that the negative consequences of exemption are not sufficient to justify violating parental autonomy.Īs concerns about vaccine safety have increased over the past 15 years, more parents are choosing to refuse or delay vaccines. NMEs are considered an important mechanism to balance child welfare and the protection of public health with parental rights. 3 Exemption laws in all but 2 states (Mississippi and West Virginia) also provide for nonmedical exemptions (NMEs) on the basis of parents’ religious, philosophical, or personal beliefs. 1,2 However, all states also allow medical exemptions for those children unable to receive vaccines for medically contraindicated reasons. 1,2 Recognizing the public health importance of the childhood immunization schedule, all 50 US states require parents to provide documentation of immunization for admission to school and day care, a mandate that has been crucial for achieving widespread vaccination. They reduce the risk of contracting dangerous vaccine-preventable childhood diseases on the individual level and, when immunization coverage is high enough, confer herd immunity at the population level for those diseases that are contagious. Childhood vaccinations are one of the most significant public health interventions of all time. ![]() ![]() ![]() With some stimulation patterns people feel tingling or pins and needles type sensations.
