Flow Rate verificationThe guaranteed flow rate is 2000 liters per hour. Each canister has a volume of 200 liters, the flow was timed to compute the actual rate. The wells are guaranteed for a period of time and this company is good about servicing wells periodically.dozerSep 27, 2011

Proper SquaringThe 3,4,5 is a redundant check to the diagonal check, but it can come in handy in certain situations where the diagonals cannot be easily accessed. I would note that most houses in Thailand are not 'square' because basic checks like these are not commonly done.dozerSep 27, 2011

Diagonal Checks for Column PlacementThe correct placement of columns is important to the overall project to ensure that the wall angles are as they should be and the house is as designed. Often the only tool used is an external measure + the use of a small square. This shows one additional check, taken from the 3 4 5 triangle rule. If you measure 3 meters along one axis and 4 meters along another axis the diagonal should be 5 meters (or in this case 6, 8 and 10). This is done in addition to measuring the diagonals for equality.dozerSep 27, 2011
