This allows the doesn’t signer and client to get exactly what they want, but the burden of correctly designing the piece, having it manufacture, and being responsible for its ultimate qualities placed in the designer. In most cases, the time investment and cost of the piece designed will be greater than those of the comparable ready-made items. Some furniture pieces, like chairs are so difficult to design well that they are seldom custom designed for a single job. On the other hand, conference tables, storage units, and the lake can be developed and built as millwork

A

Custom designed furniture

50
Q

A custom designed but, as the name implies, it becomes part of the architectural construction of the project. This is a type of furniture that usually makes more efficient use of space and is often less expensive than ready-made furniture for the same function, and it’s design is usually more consistent with the architectural appearance of the space. However, is obviously less flexible and more difficult to change my styles change or the rooms function changes

Q

The application of fabric to furniture so that there is no intermediate seem details. It is also used when vertical stripes of fabric must run horizontally. In addition to specifying smooth seeming, specified the backs and seats of boots and other seating be separated by at least 1 inch, so cigarettes cannot get logged in these areas

A

Railroading

90
Q

What are the two ways that flammability can be minimized in cushions

A

Treating and using liners between the fabric in the cushion to provide a barrier that slows or inhibits the spread of heat and flame

91
Q

The first performance criteria for cushioning that is the mass per unit volume. It is normally expressed in LBM/feetcubed. The greater this is, the greater the support. However when high, foam does not necessarily provide a firm cushion

A

Density

92
Q

The higher the density the more ——— the foam is

A

Durable

93
Q

The second measure of firmness it is sometimes called the indication force deflection IFD. To determine this, a metal plate with an 8 inch diameter is pushed against a sample of foam 4 inches thick. The number of pounds required to compress the phone down 1 inch equals this rating. For example, without rating of 35 it means that 35 LBM was required to compress the foam sample to 25% of its height.

A

Indentation load deflection ILD

94
Q

The third performance criteria of cushioning is also called support factor or compression modulus. This is the ratio of the force required to compress a foam sample to 65% of its original thickness to the force required to compress the sample to 25% of its original thickness. The higher the support factor, the better the phones ability to support wait. Generally, I support radius from 2.25 4.0 should be used for medical, institutional, and assembly seating.

Q

This test, similar to the CALTB133, Evaluate the response of an actual sample of furniture to the open flame. During the test, several measures are made, including the rate of heat and smoke released, the total amount of heat and smoke released, the concentration of carbon dioxide, and others. The most important measurement is the rate of heat release, which quantify is the intensity of the fire generated. This is one of the strictest tests for furniture and is required in many states.
