M3 M3: Make and support valid decisions relating to the specification of materials for a tutor provided application Introduction By using the materials identified in P6 I can decide on which material is best suited for a foundation, building frame, guttering, external cladding of walls and wall insulation by looking at each materials properties and performance. This will help decide on which material is best suited for each component of the building as we will be able to find which material is the strongest and long-lasting for the foundation and which is best at stopping heat transfer for the wall insulation. For a construction project to be successful the right material needs to be used for each component in the building to ensure that the
An example of the amount of craftsmanship is when the text says, "The skilled laborers cut, polished, or carved inscriptions in the stone. " This proves that the amount of craftsmanship was a huge roll in build Verbonia. Another example would be the way they cut the stone, "When the stone was bery hard, the blade used in the saw had no teeth; sand and steel fillings were placed inder the blade and the back-and-forth motion of the saw ground away the stone.

The Spence Children’s Anxiety Scale The Spence Children’s Anxiety Scale (SCAS; Spence, 1998) will be used as secondary outcome measures. The SCAS is a 45-item (4-point Likert scale) self - report questionnaire designed to assess children’s report about anxiety and provide information about specific types of childhood anxiety disorders (Spence, 1998). The Total Score (sum of the 38 anxiety items) ranges from 0 to 114 with higher scores indicating greater levels of anxiety. The SCAS has positive psychometric properties (Spence, Barrett, & Turner, 2003) and has been used to measure anxiety symptoms and treatment outcome with high levels of internal validity and reliability (Sofronoff et al., 2005) in anxious children.
Rome had lasted many years and provided many advances during that era, some of which were lost for centuries. Two important developments that Rome had made were concrete and the arch.
