1. Bearing Masonry
One type of wall, that holds the weight of upper elements above it, which is
conducting its weight to structure below the wall. This wall is an active structural
element of a building and one of the earliest in construction. Most houses use bearing
masonry method known as “Platform Framing”. But when skycraper show up and
concurrent rise of steel is more suitable, causing a decrease in bearing masonry uses.

2. Inlaid Marble
Is a stone that comes from limestone and has a mixture of different colors, has bands
of color, the crystals are medium to coarse, If dripped acid will make a sighing sound.
This stone will be hard and shiny if polished. This stone is commonly used as a tile
material.

3. To Inlay a Material
The technology of developing material strength for construction purposes with all its
characteristics is growing. To create materials that are stronger, weather-resistant and
lighter is an achievement to produce high-quality structural and non-structural
components of buildings.
Polymer material is an alternative building material to make building quality better.
The advantages of polymer materials are that they do not rust, are weather-resistant,
chemical-resistant, lighter, and have more manageable properties. The properties of
this material can then improve and develop the treasures of construction industry
players to show their best works.Polymer materials applied to buildings include
complementary, non-structural, semi-structural and structural materials.
Complementary materials, such as glueing plywood, patching, coatings for
decoration, or protection of materials. Meanwhile, for non-structural purposes, it is
obtained for wall coverings, floors, and vapor prevention. For structural and semi-
structural purposes, because the importance is to increase strength and rigidity,
polymer composites are developed with reinforcing materials such as fillers, fibers,
and others.

4. Shaped Domes
The dome is the tone of an architectural element that is always used. It has a shape
like a half sphere, or like a cone whose surface is curved outward.

5. Flanking Tower
Is a mediaval form of structure that shapes flanking that engineers create in order to
create fortified tower defensive platform.

6. Transverse Axis
A imaginary line,real,passing through a body, on which it revolves, or may be
supposed to revolve,a line passing through a body or system around which the parts
are symmetrically arranged,for example, the major axes of rotation are the transverse
axes passing through the shoulders and hips.
7. Sandstone
sedimentary rock whose main material consists of sand-sized minerals or rock grains
that can come from fragments of other rocks. Sandstone is often mined for use as a
construction material and sandstone is found in sedimentary basins around the world.

8. Inner/outer dome
The dome has 2 parts, inner dome and outer dome. Inner dome is the interior of a
dome to strengthen the dome layer which usually has a motif or image to beautify the
inside of a building. Inner dome is also called "intrados".
Outer dome is the exterior part of a dome which is usually designed and made of
weather-resistant materials. Outer dome is also called "extrados".

9. Tile
Is a thin object (usually in a rectangular shape) that made of ceramic, stone, metal,
baked clay, or even glass and usually used to covering roofs, floors, walls, or another
surfaces.

10. Pozzolana
Terrace or pozollan is a type of excavation material that comes from the weathering of
volcanic mineral deposits. The terrace was also called Puzolan because it was first
discovered by ancient Romans. At that time the ancient Rome made the building
using the ingredients excavated from the surface of the earth which was a subtle mix
of volcanic dust found near the city of Puzzuoli. Therefore Roman named excavation
with Pozzolan. Terrace or Puzolan contains silica, iron and aluminum elements that
do not have cement properties, but in the form of fine powder and if mixed with water
can react with calciumhydroxide at room temperature and a form of compounds that
have cement properties, namely experiencing the hardening process and not LAR.

11. Iron Road/Bar


A roadway laid with iron rails.this road uses iron because iron is has uses, namely
providing a strong foundation on the road, preventing the road from cracking,
preventing the road from sinking. And of course what is used is an iron frame as a
road reinforcement whose function is to make the distribution more even,So it can
make the road stable and carry the load of the vehicle that runs better. The stress due
to the load is relatively smaller and there is no need for a base course or thick concrete
foundation.

12. Clamp
Clamp is a tool (usually made of cast metal) that applies a force to hold more than one
object tightly together. It will a temporary period after which the parts will be
separated, or they will hold together without the aid of the clamp, for example if they
have been glued or screwed.
13. To Drill Holes
Drilling requires precision and the right way when doing it. Each different medium to
be drilled requires different handling characteristics for the drilling process. For
example, how to drill a wall or concrete will be different from how to drill wood or
iron.

14. To Rust Away


Is a form part of corotion iron happens gradually by nature(oxygen and moisture).
though there are some metal which will not rust, such as; almunium,
gold,platinum,silver.. and so on which named precious metals.

15. Baked/Dried Clay


A clay is the material of creating a construction, baked clay most commonly is used
for creating a brick or roof tiles. Clay is also an important ingredient in composite
materials such as adobe, cob, rammed earth, etc. Clay has good robustness, stability,
and durability.

16. Tightly pressed grains


is grains that being pressed together by the weight of sediments.

17. Subject to various stresses/forces


Stress is the result of internal forces, or forces that result when internal particles react
to each other. Force is the measure of the amount of energy that's applied to an object.
These internal forces are caused when a load is applied to an object. The most
common loading types include longitudinally-loaded objects, axially-loaded objects,
and torsional-loaded, or twisted, objects.
There are six major types of stress that cause failures, there are compression, tension,
shear, bending, torsion, and fatigue. Each of these different stresses is caused by a
unique situation, and it's the way the object is loaded that dictates what type of stress
the object experiences. The two main ways forces can be applied to an object are
axially or longitudinally. When an object is axially loaded, the forces are applied in
line with the major axis of the object. With longitudinally-loaded structures, forces are
applied so they are perpendicular to the major axis.

18. Plated with Silver/Gold/Copper


Is a treatment to some metal surfaces to make it look more attractive, textured, and
colorful. Plating can also avoid corrosion on some metal. Silver, gold, and copper
plating usually used for electronic needs.

19. Separated by Joints


The separation of joints or structures in buildings is usually done to minimize the
occurrence of dilatation (turnover or movement) of the building during an earthquake.
