Many variations of the basic process are practiced. Metallurgists have discovered that the change from austenite to martensite occurs during the latter part of the cooling period and that this change is accompanied by a change in volume that may crack the metal if the cooling is too swift. Three comparatively new processes have been developed to avoid cracking. In time-quenching the steel is withdrawn from the quenching bath when it has reached the temperature at which the martensite begins to form, and is then cooled slowly in air. In martempering the steel is withdrawn from the quench at the same point, and is then placed in a constant-temperature bath until it attains a uniform temperature throughout its cross section. The steel is then allowed to cool in air through the temperature range of martensite formation, which for most steels is the range from about 288° C to room temperature. In austempering the steel is quenched in a bath of metal or salt maintained at the constant temperature at which the desired structural change occurs and is held in this bath until the change is complete before being subjected to the final cooling.
Other methods of heat treating steel to harden it are used. In case hardening, a finished piece of steel is given an extremely hard surface by heating it with carbon or nitrogen compounds. These compounds react with the steel, either raising the carbon content or forming nitrides in its surface layer. In carburizing, the piece is heated in charcoal or coke, or in carbonaceous gases such as methane or carbon monoxide. Cyaniding consists of hardening in a bath of molten cyanide salt to form both carbides and nitrides. In nitriding, steels of special composition are hardened by heating them in ammonia gas to form alloy nitrides.
Text A
Building Construction is a procedures involved in the erection of various types of structures. The major trend in present-day construction continues away from handcrafting at the building site and toward on-site assembly of ever larger, more integrated subassemblies manufactured away from the site.
Another characteristic of contemporary building, related to the latter trend, is the greater amount of dimensional coordination; that is, buildings are designed and components manufactured in multiples of a standard module (10 cm being standard in the U.S.), which drastically reduces the amount of cutting and fitting required on the building site. A third trend is the production or redevelopment of such large structural complexes as shopping centers, entire campuses, and whole towns or sections of cities.

Construction
Building construction is an ancient human activity. It began with the purely functional need for a controlled environment to moderate the effects of climate. Constructed shelters were one means by which human beings were able to adapt themselves to a wide variety of climates and become a global species.
Human shelters were at first very simple and perhaps lasted only a few days or months. Over time, however, even temporary structures evolved into such highly refined forms as the igloo. Gradually more durable structures began to appear, particularly after the advent of agriculture, when people began to stay in one place for long periods. The first shelters were dwellings, but later other functions, such as food storage and ceremony, were housed in separate buildings. Some structures began to have symbolic as well as functional value, marking the beginning of the distinction between architecture and building.
The history of building is marked by a number of trends. One is the increasing durability of the materials used. Early building materials were perishable, such as leaves, branches, and animal hides. Later, more durable natural materials—such as clay, stone, and timber—and, finally, synthetic materials—such as brick, concrete, metals, and plastics—were used. Another is a quest for buildings of ever greater height and span; this was made possible by the development of stronger materials and by knowledge of how materials behave and how to exploit them to greater advantage. A third major trend involves the degree of control exercised over the interior environment of buildings: increasingly precise regulation of air temperature, light and sound levels, humidity, odors, air speed, and other factors that affect human comfort has been possible. Yet another trend is the change in energy available to the construction process, starting with human muscle power and developing toward the powerful machinery used today.
The present state of building construction is complex. There is a wide range of building products and systems which are aimed primarily at groups of building types or markets. The design process for buildings is highly organized and draws upon research establishments that study material properties and performance, code officials who adopt and enforce safety standards, and design professionals who determine user needs and design a building to meet those needs. The construction process is also highly organized; it includes the manufacturers of building products and systems, the craftsmen who assemble them on the building site, the contractors who employ and coordinate the work of the craftsmen, and consultants who specialize in such aspects as construction management, quality control, and insurance.
Building construction today is a significant part of industrial culture, a manifestation of its diversity and complexity and a measure of its mastery of natural forces, which can produce a widely varied built environment to serve the diverse needs of society.

Construction Industry
Building construction is the product of a diverse group of subindustries, with many individuals and organizations involved in the construction of a single structure, from the manufacture of necessary components to final assembly. As a general rule, state laws require a registered architect or engineer, or both, to execute the design and to make sure that the design complies with public health, zoning, and building-code requirements. The design must at the same time conform to the requirements of the owner. The architect or engineer converts these requirements into a set of drawings and written specifications that usually are sent to interested general contractors for bids. The successful bidder or bidders in turn subcontract plumbing, painting, electrical wiring, structural frame construction and erection, and other jobs to firms specializing in these crafts.
Contractors ordinarily carry out their work under the observation of an architect and or engineer, who acts as agent of the owner. State and local inspectors review the work for general compliance with the local building code. The immediate responsibility of the contractor, architect, and engineer ends when the local authorities approve the building for occupancy and the owner accepts the building. However, the contractor, architect, and engineer are legally responsible for any deficiencies in the construction or design for a period of several years after acceptance, the time depending on the terms of the contract and local laws.
