THE CATALOQUE

Factors that determine which kind of roof to use for your house.

CLIMATE

In hot desert-like climates where rainfall is low, flat roofs are very common. Areas such as North-Africa have alot of these roofs.A flat roof is not eactly’flat’. It usually slopes at an angle of 5 to 10 degrees.This angle can not be noticed easily and helps to drain water during cleaning or after rainy weather.In traditional African societies, communities living in Arid areas of Kenya such as Maasai,

Samburu had their shelters made of flat roofs. This is because rain is not common in thses areas. In rainy climates, the roof becomes steep. In snowy regions such as Northern Europe, the roof is very steep[over 45 degrees] so as to drain away snow. In traditional African societies which live in rainy regions such as Kisii,Mount Kenya and Coast, the thatch roof is very steep[over 60 degrees] so as to increase the surface runnoff of rain water.

COST

Roofing materials vary depending on the budget.In Kenya, thatch roof is the

cheapest at KES 180 per square meter.

It is followed by Iron sheets. The thinnest grade in the market at the moment is Gauge 32 which costs about KES 210 per square meter.Gauge 30 costs about KES 240 per square meter and Gauge 28 pre-painted costs approximately kes 500 per square meter.Concrete roofng tiles cost around KES 400 per square meter. Clay roofing tiles cost around KES 630 per square meter at Mombasa. These have the advantage of being light-weight and since they are made of natural clay with no added paint, their rain-watter runnoff can be consumed without any health issues as compared to the others wheich have paint . Paint contains Lead which is harmful to the human body.Stone coated steel roofing tiles such as Harvey, Decra are in the range of the most expensive and cost approximately KES 1500 per square meter.These are usually gauge 26 in thickness and hence give a lifetime guarantee. Their light weight also gives savings to the timber supporting trusses which will be less than when supporting heavier concrete tiles.

THEME DESIGN AND SHAPE OF THE ROOFCurved and cylindrical roofs require special types of materials such as copper and bituminous felts. These felts can take the shape of the roof easily.Copper felt is expensive. This is usually copper in colour when new and turns greenish as it ages. Hipped roofs are best laid using tiles since with tiles, there will be less cutting and hence less wastage.Some steel roofing suppliers in Kenya can supply curved roofs.

Gable roofs can be done using any type of roofing products.Some buildings such as Highlands restaurant at Afya Centre, Nairobi have glass roofs. These give nice views but are expensive to put up. A square meter of 10mm structural glass costs approximately kes 2,800.

The steepness of the roof can also be used to control cost. The more steep the roof, the more the surface area and hence the more the cost. Some roofing tiles such as Mangalore design require steep roofs to make sure that the rain water surface runnoff is fast and hence no leakages.Recreational facilities such as tourist lodges which require rustic natural finishes will opt for the thatch roofs which can be patterned to various designs. Also, hardwood plank roofs are also common for these kind of recreational buildings. An example is the KWS Headquarters along Langata Road.---www.a4architect.com

Where to get a refurbished computer

.....................................................Most refurbished computers in developing countries come from charitable organizations or businesses that specialize in refurbishing and distributing old computers.

Professional refurbishing suppliers will remove all the old software and data and test the PCs to ensure they function well once they reach the final user. Costs can vary greatly between suppliers, and also depend upon the import duties of the destination country.

In today’s world, computers have become very essential in almost every aspect of life. We simply can’t do without computing. But how do you buy a computer that will help you complete tasks effectively and efficiently? Doing some research before purchasing a PC can help you identify the right one for you.

The followings are important things to consider before buying a computer:

Central processing unit (CPU)/ Processor

This is considered the brain of your PC. It’s the one behind execution of programs. CPU speed is extremely important to ensure your desktop or laptop operates maximally. If possible always go for the latest in the market.

Buying refurbished computers can mean major savings for your organization but there are a few things to consider when

looking at alternatives to new computers.

The current processor speed ranges from 1.4 GHz to 3.46 GHz. For normal computer use, a processor with speed of 1.8 GHz will be alright. The higher the better, but this always comes at additional cost.

Random Access Memory (RAM)

RAM is simply the system memory, and the more the better. The more the computer memory, the faster your PC will run- maximum speed and performance. Majority of computers come with at least 256 MB RAM. To be on safe side, always buy one with 512 or more.

Hard Drive

It’s the computer permanent storage unit. It stores programs, data, documents and any other information. The more space your computer has, the more data you can save- documents, movies, music, games and more. Most current desktops and laptops come with at least 40 GB hard drive.

Removable MediaBe sure to have a CD-R or CD_RW drive installed on computer you intend to buy. But I would advise you go for DVD or DVD_R. For reading information from CD ROM you need just CD-R, however with CD-R you can write/record data. Similarly, DVD can only read, while DVD-R can record besides reading DVD ROM.USB ports are also important for reading flash disks or for plugging other accessories.

THE CATALOQUE

Content marketing – or inbound marketing as it commonly referred to these days – is all about habit. There are very few overnight blog success stories, in blogging or in other spheres of life. Whenever I think I’ve found one I dig in and find years of hard work behind their “overnight success”. When you make writing a habit, when you produce content on a regular, consistent basis you will attract visitors over time.

John Jantsch from Duct Tape Marketing and I had a discussion about content marketing recently. We both encounter business owners who aren’t convinced that content marketing works so they approach it half-heartedly. And then when they don’t see immediate results, they give up. But as John pointed out, “Marketing is a habit; it’s not an event.” Nowhere is that more true than with content marketing!

I guarantee you – content marketing works, but you have to invest yourself in it. Whether it’s you who is putting content out there or your staff, someone needs to be putting information – good information – out there. Now more than ever people are turning to the Internet for answers. When they have a question – no matter where they are or what

time it is – they turn to their computer, iPad or mobile phone for an answer. It’s imperative that when your customers or prospects are asking the questions – yours is the answer they find.

Just last week a business owner was wondering about how she should price one of her services. Coincidently she found a pointer to an eBook I had written about small business pricing. The book answered her question and that qualified me to be the person she comes to for other, more strategic issues that she needs help with.

That’s what a commitment to content marketing will do for you. When you create compelling content with good keywords the search engines will point people to it — so you’ll be among the top choices when people search. The more you are out there talking to your customers and prospects, the more chances you have to listen to them, so you can be tuned in to what questions they need you to answer. Answer those questions in a compelling way and you qualify yourself to be the resource they need for larger, more challenging issues.

Every printer needs an occasional tune-up, particularly if it has not been

used for a long time. When lines or poor colors appears in prints, it’s time to do a nozzle check. The maintenance process consumes ink, so don’t use it unless necessary.

Maintenance tools are accessed through the printer driver. Once the procedure begins, let it run full cycle before shutting the printer off. Every printer needs an occasional tune-up, particularly if it has not been used for a long time. When lines or poor colors appears in prints, it’s time to do a nozzle check. The maintenance process consumes ink, so don’t use it unless necessary. Maintenance tools are accessed through the printer driver. Once the procedure begins, let it run full cycle before shutting the printer off.

Nozzle check When printouts become faint or certain colors fail to print, test whether the print heads are working properly. Use the utility that performs a nozzle check pattern. If the printout shows gaps, clean the

nozzles.

Cleaning print heads

If the nozzle check indicates that a cleaning is need, or if the printer is completely clogged, clean the print heads. The process removes blockages in the nozzles. Run additional nozzle checks since sometimes cleaning must be performed more than once to be successful. Some printers have a deep cleaning option. Print head alignment

If lines and colors look out of kilter, or there is banding, align the print heads. The process aligns the heads correctly.

If cleaning and alignment do not solve a problem, contact the manufacturer for the cost of repair. If your printer is no longer covered under warranty, assess whether repair costs are worth it. Sometimes buying a new printer, particularly those that come with a full set of ink cartridges, is the best option

THE CATALOQUE

Factors Affecting Demand for Shoes As a retailer, the first rule is to understand the triggers for purchasing your product. Knowing the factors affecting demand for shoes enables you to respond more quickly to the needs of the market. Below are the common factors affecting demand for shoes: • Price. US consumers are extremely price conscious and value driven. Four out of every ten pairs of shoes in America is sold at a discount. The essence of consumers demand response is to buy less at high prices and more at lower prices. Consumers are generally price-conscious when buying shoes: they often come to a store with a threshold price (say $150) and then they look for a pair within their budget and best fits their criteria. Others even select low-priced items to be able to buy several pairs, without going above their budget. With the advent of discount shoe stores, even branded shoes can be bought at significant discounts. Unless you are catering to high-income market where clients buy several Manolo Blahniks or Jimmy Choo shoes at a single purchase, you need to carefully check how your market is responding to your prices. • Demographics. The characteristics and size of the population also impacts the demand for shoes. Heavily populated areas like cities have greater demands for shoes relative to smaller towns. The demographics of the area surrounding your store also impact the selection of your merchandise. If your store is located in the beach area, you need to stock up on sandals, flip-flops and other must-have beach shoe items. If you are located in the middle of the busy downtown area or business section of your town, you may find that corporate and formal shoes are in greater demand relative to other shoe types. • Changes in Disposable Income. Income dictates the choice and frequency of purchase of shoes. A family with increasing incomes may find itself having more money available for the purchase of shoes. A family with shrinking income, however, may find shoe purchase at the bottom of their priority. For a high-income area, you can expect a strong demand for brand names, particularly high-end types of shoes. Low-income areas are more likely to be price-conscious: your customers will demand good quality shoes for lower prices. • Weather. Weather is a major determinant in the selection and choices of shoes. Sandals and thongs see a surge in popularity during the hot summer months, while boots are in great demand during the colder months. Your inventory needs to take into account the seasons in buying your inventory. • Fashion Trends. Fashion dictates what sells for shoes. The fashion runways exert heavy influence on what will be seen on the shelves of shoe stores. Fashion creates demand for the current must have items: it can be clogs the past season and ballet shoes the following season. Hence, it is critical to be on the lookout for the next fashion must have item and make sure that you will be able to cater to the needs of the fashionistas. The drawback, of course, is when you overstock on a particular style when the fashion trends have already moved to the next must have shoes. • Target market. Your target market specifically their age and buying power -- also shapes the look, feel, styles and product offerings of your shoe store. Baby boomers (those born from 1946 to 1964) as well as older members of the Generation Y (born from 1977 to 1994) typically have greater wealth, and can therefore, afford to buy more expensive shoes. Today s younger generations including teenagers have greater spending money (e.g. parents credit cards, higher allowances) and can afford to shop shoes for themselves. • Economic Factors. The shoe industry typically follows the volatility of economic swings and downturns. A surging economy often leads to good sales, while sales may take a nosedive during economic recessions and bust.
