Definitions

Load
It should be understood as a structural burden that should be included in the calculation of the mechanical elements (forces, moments, deformation, displacements) of the structure as a system and/or the elements that compose. The structural loads are generally classified as: dead loads acting continuously and without significant changes, belong to this group the weight of the structure, thrusts of liquids (as in a dyke) or solid (such as the floor in a retaining wall), tensor (as in Bridge), presfuerzo, permanent seats; Live loads that are those that vary its intensity over time by use or exposure of the structure, such as the transit bridges, changes in temperature, machinery (such as a press), accumulation of snow or hail, etc; accidental loads that have their origin in actions outside of the use of the structure and whose manifestation is short-lived as they are the seismic or wind gusts.

Stresses
"Stress" measures the average force per unit area of a surface within a deformable body on which internal forces act, specifically the intensity of the internal forces acting between particles of a deformable body across imaginary internal surfaces.[4] These internal forces are produced between the particles in the body as a reaction to external forces. External forces are either surface forces or body forces. Because the loaded deformable body is assumed to behave as a continuum, these internal forces are distributed continuously within the volume of the material body, i.e. the stress distribution in the body is expressed as a piecewise continuous function of space and time.

Slip joints
Slip joints can be designed to allow continuous relative motion of two components or it can allow an adjustment from one temporarily fixed position to another. Examples of the latter are tripods, hiking poles, or similar telescoping device. The position is fixed using a clamping mechanism based on a cam, a set screw or similar locking mechanism. Slip joints can also be non-telescoping, such as the joints on some older wooden surveyor's levelling rods. These use a joint that keeps the sections offset from each other but able to be slid together for transport.

Shear or tensile movement
A shear stress, is defined as the component of stress coplanar with a material cross section. Shear stress arises from the force vector component parallel to the cross section. Normal stress, on the other hand, arises from the force vector component perpendicular or antiparallel to the material cross section on which it acts

Internal stress
In continuum mechanics, stress is a measure of the internal forces acting within a deformable body. Quantitatively, it is a measure of the average force per unit area of a surface within the body on which internal forces act. These internal forces arise as a reaction to external forces applied on the body. Because the loaded deformable body is assumed to behave as a continuum, these internal forces are distributed continuously within the volume of the material body, and result in deformation of the body's shape. Beyond certain limits of material strength, this can lead to a permanent shape change or structural failure.

Injection technique
DESCRIPTION
  • Specially for use with Injection mortars FIS V, FIS VS, FIS VW or FIS VT in non-cracked concrete.
  • The anchor rods are also suitable for push-through installation, using special push-through elements.
  • The mortar bonds the entire surface of the anchor rod to the wall of the drilled hole and largely seals the hole.
  • Anchor rod made of stainless steel of the corrosion resistance class III e.g. A4 for outdoor use and in damp conditions.
Advantages/Benefits
  •  High-performance mortars allow high loads in non-cracked concrete.
  •  various setting depths for different load levels and useful lengths.
  •  Quick manual installation without a setting tool reduces the work involved.
  •  Simple and quick push-through installation reduces installation time.
  •  Steel grade 5.8 or A4-70 guarantee the highest steel load-bearing strength and maximum permissible bending moments.

SUMMARY OF MISSION, VISION, VALUES, OBJECTIVES, SWOT

MISSION:

The mission is the reason, purpose, purpose or raison d ' être of the existence of a company or organization because it defines:
  1. What it intends to fulfil in their environment or social system in which acts.
  2. What it intends to do.
  3. For who will do.

VISION:

The vision is defined as the path which the company is directed to long-term and serves as a course and inducement to guide strategic decisions of growth with the competitiveness. It is a clear statement indicating where the company is going in the long term and what must be converted, taking into account the impact of new technologies, the needs and changing expectations of clients, the emergence of new conditions of the market, etc.



VALUES:

The values are convinced that members of an organization have to prefer certain State of things above others (honesty, efficiency, quality, trust, etc.) The values are taken, many times, as meaningless sentences that they really no impact on corporate performance, but if we look at its true scope, shared values constitute the foundation of the Organization and generate benefits for the people and companies that apply.
 
 
 
OBJECTIVES:
 
The objectives are the points toward which the companies directed their energies and resources. They have features like:
  • Refer to a future situation, indicate the direction to be followed by the company and establishes rules for the activity of the members.
  • They provide a source of legitimacy that justifies the actions and existence of a company.
  • They serve as a model to enable persons belonging to the Organization to compare and assess their effectiveness and performance of the organization.
  • They serve as a unit of measure to check and compare the productivity of the company.
  • The needs of goods and services of the society.
  • Provide employment for the factors of production.
  • Enhance the welfare of society through resources.
  • Provide a fair return to the input factors.
  • Create an environment where people can meet their needs.
 
 
SWOT:
 
SWOT is the acronym used to refer to an analytical tool that allows you to work with all information you have on your business, useful to examine their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.
This type of analysis represents an effort to examine the interaction between the specificity of your business and the environment in which it competes. (The SWOT analysis has multiple applications and can be used by all levels of the Corporation and in different units of analysis such as product, market, incorporating, line of products, Corporation, company, Division, strategic business, etc). Many of the conclusions obtained as a result of the SWOT analysis, may be useful in the analysis of the market and marketing strategies that I designed and qualified to be incorporated into the business plan.

SUMMARIES

Benchmarking:

Benchmarking is a process that allows detecting the causes described in the excellent results of the best companies in certain processes or practices, in order to close the gaps between them and carry out Benchmarking. This tool can be applied to any organizational process in any company and has had a boom as a result of its inclusion.


Through this total quality tool companies have been able to achieve a higher competitive level to identify best practices from leading companies and adapt them to the processes of the companies that establish the comparison. (Thus many companies have been able to) improve its service to the client, reduce product development times, reducing processing costs

Outsourcing:

Outsourcing is a tool used to develop products, software applications and information systems, all within an organizational practice is shaped by information systems and technologies. In this way, relationships of power and control that are increased by the knowledge technician that has and is expressed in the habits that routinely develop people in their organizational practice. This work makes a theoretical analysis based on the interpretation of practices organizational when running Outsourcing policies and in the development of the management information systems publishes. Concluding reflections that reach, show people with technical knowledge to use organizational practices to enhance their interests and strengthen their power.


Six Sigma:


Six Sigma is a methodology for process improvement, focused on reducing the variability of the same, reduce or eliminate the defects or failures in the delivery of a product or service to the client. The goal of 6 Sigma is to reach a maximum of 3.4 defects per million opportunities (DPMO) or events, understanding as default any event in that a product or service does not meet the requirements of the client.

Six sigma uses statistical tools for the characterization and study of processes, hence the name of the tool, that sigma traditionally represents the variability in a process and the objective methodology six sigma is to reduce it so that my process is always within the limits set by the customer's requirements.


Strategic Alliance:

Strategic alliances: The strategic objective of this joining of forces, is to overcome trade barriers in a new market, to develop new products or services, to access to foreign markets that require major investments and a knowledge of the market in that country, to enter areas specific or to compete more efficiently in the current...


Partnerships are excellent because they provide to entrepreneurs and small businesses of ideas, resources, tools or solutions that help them to achieve:
  • Lower costs (more profits)
  • Higher incomes (for new and current customers)
  • And more time (because earn efficiency)

HOW TO DO PUBLIC PRESENTATION





HOW TO DO PUBLIC PRESENTATION

The presentation of an idea can succeed or sink, so it is your responsibility to look best. His first line of thinking should include information addressed only to the audience to which it is addressed. Once you have the basic research, follow the following guidelines to take full advantage of the opportunity that is assigned and make sure to implement the elements of a good presentation in Power Point.

Also must be taken into account be respectful with the time of others and show its public that it is clear and efficient. Not being bored. The resulting effective is based on getting the attention of your audience from the beginning, them you do not talk about technical product data, talks about the benefits that will provide its use or consumption, improvements to find, the good results that gets…. This is what arouses the desire to purchase on the client.

Another way to catch your eye is solving problems, people seek solutions, even your can pose a problem and how to fix it, you must learn how to detect in your customers needs that would be filled with your products, listen, question, interacts with your customers and remember that each presentation is unique and must adapt it to the public to which it is addressed.

Task 4 "Comment Of Spongebob Oral Report"



It all starts when SpongeBob has trouble consentrarse in Krusty Krab for his oral presentation, this nervous and distracted because of the same.


He then asks help Patrick, to rehearse your presentation. But Patrick does not help,  Instead, it bothers, interrupt, sleeping, he throws pillows, dresses of Mrs Puff, It does run on a treadmill, he scolds him constantly, until that achieves that this SpongeBob even more nervous by his oral presentation. So Patrick offers help and takes him with SpongeBob which advised you use a lens to see others in underwear and so be less nervous.

At the end comes the day of the presentation and this SpongeBob very nervous so it asks do not the presentation, but Mrs Puff, threatens him but it does, it will not win the course. SpongeBob wears the glasses to see others in underwear, begins to read your presentation but enters in a State of panic and flees from the place in the pot of Mrs Puff, Patrick, she and the Police follow him until SpongeBob has an accident by which said his presentation against the cops, arriving at the conclusion that the blame for the accident is Mrs Puff that she not has taught him to drive, and take it prey.

All the problems of SpongeBob is debian to their nerves by the presentation, but when he acted in a natural manner, could make it if any problem, by which we can say that the Act naturally and be prepared theoretically to make a presentation to guarantee success in the same.
