Extractions: Middle School Students Learn Math in After-School Construction Projects with the Oregon Building Congress For ten weeks in the spring and fall, the Oregon Building Congress runs an after-school construction program for middle school students. The main goal is to teach students how essential math is in the building industry. Geometry, trigonometry, and algebra are used in projects such as constructing and wiring a wall. The program allows students to improve their math understanding and grades while learning new construction skills. The Oregon Building Congress hopes the program will get students excited about careers in the construction industry, and will encourage school districts to re-establish shop classes. For more information Oregon Building Congress Sponsors Annual Summer Math Workshops for Teachers Since 1997, the Oregon Building Congress has sponsored a series of popular five-day summer workshops that show how math is used on the job in the construction industry. Nearly 200 teachers have attended these hands-on workshops, which are taught by union apprenticeship instructors. The instructors demonstrate how algebra, trigonometry, and geometry are used in the building trades. Teachers learn how the Pythagorean theorem is used to build stairs or how sine curves are used to measure three-dimensional space. Hands-on activities and examples of applied mathematics show how to make the school curriculum more relevant and exciting, especially for kinesthetic learners. The workshops also encourage teachers to inform their students about the many high-paying, family-wage jobs available in the building trades. Four workshop sessions were held in Portland and one in Medford in summer 2000. An additional site was added in 2001 for teachers in the Pendleton area.

Extractions: Building systems erector started at bottom and climbed to the top Feature by Mark Sproxton Climbing up a steel column for what seems like the thousandth time today, the 15 kilograms of bolts he's carrying becomes noticeable to the ironworker (building systems erector). It's Friday and the crew nears the end of its fifth 12-hour day in a row. Heavy work comes with the territory as do the long days in the summer. "It's taxing on your body but who else gets to get paid and workout at the same time?" Jason Dyck, Building Systems Erector, Ironwood Building Systems "It's taxing on your body but who else gets to get paid and workout at the same time," asks Jason Dyck, a certified building systems erector who is a construction manager for Ironwood Building Systems . "We're like (farmers), you make hay when the sun shines." If not working five, 12-hour days in the summer, he says the crews often work six days a week in order to keep up with construction schedules. Putting together metal buildings, such as office buildings, warehouses, agricultural buildings and hockey rinks, the work goes year-round. But also like farming, weather plays a large role in how quickly the building crews can complete a project, especially if there's lightning nearby. "We try not to stand on the metal buildings when it's like that," Dyck said. And windy winter days aren't the most favourable conditions either. "Minus 20 with a blowing wind and cloud turns into minus 40 pretty quickly." Those givens, however, don't detract from the enjoyment of the work. "I get to look at the paper work and the end result, which is a building. The feeling of accomplishment is the best."

Extractions: United Brotherhood of Carpenters Union By Jamie McCallum M ike Griffin has been a carpenter in Decatur Illinois for five years, but recently he found himself working with the pipe systems that power huge turbines. The United Brotherhood of Carpenters (UBC) signed a deal with Westinghouse guaranteeing that carpenters can do pipefitters work if they agree to work for 10 percent less than the normal pay rate. The UBC is teaching apprentices and members that you have to compete against your brother, Griffin said. Well, not me. Members protested, threatening to take action with the AFL-CIO and the contract was renegotiated for more money. Still, Griffin and other rank and file members within the carpenters union think this is the shape of things to come. UBC management recently decided to withdraw its founding membership from the AFL-CIO, claiming the money it could be spending to organize new workers is being wasted by Washington bureaucrats. However, many members contend management would like the freedom to raid and sign more wall to wall contracts, which could send the wages of over 500,000 carpenters and about 3 million members in the building trades plummeting. Raiding is the practice of taking workers from one affiliated union to another, which is illegal under article 20 of the AFL-CIO Constitution. At a time when such a small percentage of the workforce is unionized, this clause is designed to encourage unions to organize the unorganized, not to bicker over a group of already-organized workers. A wall to wall agreement, sometimes referred to as a raid among the 15 building trades unions, is a contractor-friendly deal where one union does all the work typically performed by many crafts cheaper by undercutting the pay scale of other unions. With more carpenters on the job site, union management rakes in more dues money. However, using economic pressure to gain access to another trades work is illegal according to the AFL-CIO constitution, and violates building trades agreements that protect craft jurisdictions.

If you begin your trading with faulty methods and you compound the error by having poor trading habits then your fate is sealed. YOU WILL most likely LOSE MONEY. The odds are stacked against you if you act like, think like and do like most traders do. However, if you carry out your trading with the right structure and combine it with EFFECTIVE systems and methods as well as SOLID profit and loss management then your odds of success will be far greater than the vast majority of hopeless individuals who daily try to make money in the markets.

There are three main reasons for this: More homeowners are concerned with comfort and safety. Rising energy costs have created demands for energy efficiency. Demands on natural resources have created higher costs for building materials. As a result, new houses are built differently from older ones, and it has become increasingly important to apply the principles of building science to their construction.
