Damage to health range from headaches to cancer risk

Election and thoughtless use of electrical and electronic equipment caused Electrosmog. The health risks are varied, depending on the sensitivity.

Who's new living environment planning, should be considered when selection on high-voltage power lines, power plants, transformer stations, Umspannungswerke, railway lines and transmission towers for mobile ensured. So much for the outside influences. But there is something else: A home without art is like a car is not moving. But with lights, computers, televisions and household appliances to more energy into the living environment and thus the electromagnetic radiation. Sensible people and children often respond sensitively to it. "Scientifically proven sleep disorders are important in the REM phase and cardiac arrhythmias," warns the doctor Eberndorf environmental Dieter Schmidt. In addition, effects such as irritability, nervousness, to increased cancer risk is observed, say radiation sensitive people who are Internet forums to exchange experiences. Look at you the acquisition of technical equipment to the load as low as possible to keep the healthy living is nothing in the way. "Who energy saving lives is the burden largely escape," advises Smith.

What is Electrosmog?

The term "electro-smog" is the end of the seventies and were called the growing "pollution" of the human environment with electromagnetic radiation. There are low frequency and high frequency. The rays are between 30 kHz and 100 kHz. Low-frequency fields are the result of electrical power at the mains in pipes, installations and equipment are - even if no current flows. Created by the RF wireless use of electromagnetic waves. Their scope and propagation (radio, television, cellular, radar, cordless telephone, microwave and Babyphones) have multiplied in the last decade.

The main DC magnetic field is the natural Earth's magnetic field. The Earth acts like a giant bar. At this natural magnetic field, the man for millennia been used and adapted. Only a change or distortion of this field, for example by the DC of trams or magnetizable metals affect our body.

Amplifier for Electrosmog

Innerspring mattresses or metal parts in the bed or bed grate, radiator, or steel beams in the wall are in a position to make the body for him in an unusual "magnetic field" situation to bring. Artificial magnetic fields in the same area of the produce in the human body currents, which flows through the body's own store and thus can lead to disturbances. Who does not eliminate these sources of interference, you should at least maximize the distance to keep them.

Telephoning without remorse

Cell phones and cordless phones are from everyday life. In stand-by mode, the radiation exposure of the equipment low. Relevant is only the burden on the phone. Although the strength of the electromagnetic field with the distance from the device drops rapidly, it reaches out to assist in the typical posture phone a few centimeters in the head follicle. These are primarily the ear, the phone near the brain area and to a lesser extent the affected eye. "The best phone call from a fixed one," advises the doctor Environment Schmidt. Handyfonieren when children are particularly charged, since the skull is still thin.

External antennas at the car and calls outside of buildings to reduce radiation exposure. Recommended devices are compatible with the piezoelectric technology have been developed. There are cell phone protector pockets, the head area to 97% when making calls to shield. Free devices such as headsets hardly protect against electrosmog. You can load while reducing the radiation spread over the line but on the body along and guide them through the button hook directly through the weakest point of the skull in the ear area. Since the radiation makes a significant different values, you should before buying also inform.

A test: Is the mobile phone right next to the computer and there is a call in, it's easy to see what impact the frequency of radiation on the screen has. If you want to switch even to the speaker, the result is even stronger. The same load shall be permanently in his body.

The old building has been newly developed


Not only in the basement and concrete Deckenbau is indispensable. In addition to a construction savings of almost 70 percent, it offers weather independence under construction.

Wood, glass and metal are in the house for a long time not only basic material, but also provide the modern look, concrete is an interesting addition.

The Austrian cement industry is showing new uses of concrete. Not only in the basement and concrete Deckenbau is essential, but increasingly also in atypical areas of family housing. In addition to a construction savings of nearly seventy percent of the building also offers independence from weather and the best heat storage capacity.

For more than ten years in the development of concrete Green Insulation worked through the incorporation of steel fibers or plastic fibers particular macro plasticity achieved. Until now, this very expensive option is still very reluctant to set up.

Short construction period

The trend to shorter construction times, green building, best quality, less energy and effort in design and execution, especially to higher Energy Efficiency in construction, led to the development of prefabricated construction.

Modern Precast concrete products are usually planned according to individual needs and delivered, explains Felix Friembichler, CEO of the Association of the Austrian Cement Industry. He also refers to the guide for concrete production on small construction sites, the guidance for the safe production of concrete of strength class, as they are simpler in buildings such as foundations, basement walls, concrete walls coat is needed, but also for reinforced concrete columns, lintels, grates, beams , ceilings and stairs are generally sufficient.

Steinhaus

The stone of the internationally renowned architect Domenig Guenther is a prime example of the individual options, if you use concrete as a building material. With rugged, geometrically strictly, cast in concrete, partially perforated by voids, the body builder visual reference to the mountainous environment Greywater Recycling.

In the area of detached houses can be a concrete tank for the basement a good complement to the heat store design with modern steel and glass. Willi Morak concrete ring of St. Vitus is convinced: "For Häusl Bauer I can only recommend concrete building material because it is stable, safe and a good heat."

Heating and cooling

With the new technology of Landscape Lighting also expects the high energy costs in the production of concrete. The starting point is simple: It is well-known phenomenon of the thick walls of old buildings from the pleasant coolness in summer and winter spreading warmth store. For the modern floor or wall heating pipe systems for water are in the cast components. The temperature of the water will be forwarded to the components and thus regulate the temperature. Best energy efficiency, the Indoor Lighting including geothermal heating systems. There are concrete pillars up to 50 meters deep bore tunnel is poured. There is a temperature from 10 to 15 degrees. Energy talk that this mold (in conjunction with a micro-heat pump with an energy intake of 1,200 watts per hour) in a house in the magnitude of over 200 square meters with the best heat can Solar Attic Fans.

The journey is the destination

Even the design of the Solar Tubes is often characterized by concrete. Using the latest technology are the stones for the garden design is no longer so sensitive to dirt. A specially designed for this application, developed Teflon coating protects terraces and garden from contamination, they stay longer attractive and fresh. Yet another advantage: they are also easy to clean.
