"Black Out See Saw" is the Climax Alkaloid Deserved

Top Songs from Enstars 2023 Number 1

I was blown away when the album art for Alkaloid was released a few months ago...

This art is such a sharp contrast from their first album art, that shows how they have grown. The basic military style unit outfits have been replaced with regal commander-style ones. The basic emotions that are shown in the original are now much more refined- in particular, Aira has evolved from someone simply happy to be on a stage to someone who is confident in his place on it, Mayoi is putting himself more in center, and Hiiro's confident smirk has become more stoic, as he now has the experience to go with his skills.

All of this went away, however, when we actually got the Alkaloid Climax song...

Sigh...it was the seasonal Halloween event for the year. Yes, the idea of incorporating hospital/illness and Tatsumi's relationship with it is an interesting story to tell...but Alkaloid deserved so much more, especially as the "Protagonists" for the !! era of Enstars. I was frustrated that the end of this era of Enstars for Alkaloid was wasted on a seasonal event, but was at least able to take solice in that Alkaloid gets 200 chapters of the main story dedicated to them, and we still had solo songs for each character to come from the album. December rolls around, and the album releases. After jumping through hoops to buy it, I throw my headphones on to give the album a listen. The first track, "DiZZineSS" is a weird 30 second preamble with no singing, not something I was expecting. However, it rolls directly into the first new song on the album

Bam

Black Out Sea Saw is a violent wall of sound, unlike anything else that has been done for Enstars before, and I can understand fans not liking it. The reason it sounds so different is because it was produced by TK of Ling Tosite Sigure, a 20+ year going Prog Rock group. I listened to the song 3 times before moving on, and waited for the MV release to come, as is usual with the "B" side track from Albums. And what we got was one of the most well constructed videos for Alkaloid fans, and the climax that I was looking for that wasn't provided by the Halloween song.

The video opens...strangly, especially if you haven't heard the song before. The opening is intentionally choppy and rough, almost like it was an unfinished song that still needed production. There is a weird reverb effect happening- which you can especially hear when Mayoi hits the high note, that led to a friend saying "it sounds like they recorded this in a bathroom or something". The other thing that really jumps out is how robotic and synchronized the movements of all 4 members are. This is a BIG deal. In just about every Alkaloid video, you can find little inconsistencies at various points- Aira is sometimes a bit slow to do something, Hiiro is sometimes a bit too fast, Tatsumi's movements are less athletic, etc. The robotic movements are all in perfect unison, especially at points where characters do things together, like make hand bridges. It's a sign of Alkaloid's growth as a unit- they started as a collection of rejects, and now they haver come together and become a great unit together.

As we go to the first chorus, the intensity of the song ramps up- it becomes FAST, yet every member is in perfect harmony. The dancing becomes more intense- and everyone stays perfect. And then we get to the final line "It's Error-Error", and things start to change- we start to see more finger movement, the motions become more flowing and less robotic (the robots are malfunctioning! error! error!), and more personality is shown by each member.

We then get a wonderful effect of feathers raining from the sky, before, and then we get to see everyone smile, including Hiiro with this soft and expressive look. (that I wish I was able to time slightly better when I took my screenshot!)

Why is this important? Lets take a look at the first Introduction of Hiiro, in his first close-up in Kiss of Life

It's a look of focus, of determination, and NOT one of joy. Hiiro NEVER smiles at any point in Kiss of Life except during the SPP- he maintains a focused look the entire time. Additionally, you can look at just about any Alkaloid video, and Hiiro rarely smiles- if anything, he just physically assaults the camera in every one of them! The final chapter of the main story is titled "Smile", which is a discussion between Hiiro and Rinne on what it means to be an idol, and Rinne telling Hiiro "Whenever I see you smile, it makes me smile too", with Hiiro responding that he will do whatever it takes to make people smile

Hiiro wasn't able to smile in Kiss of Life, as his focus was on putting smiles on the faces of others. It's weird, because when he isn't preforming, a smile is basically plastered on his face permanently. He has a very loud and infectious laugh, and he's just happy to be doing anything at any time. On stage, for him, its different. And Black Out Sea Saw is the first time that Hiiro is able to not just smile, but show kindness in it, as opposed to simple joy or excitement. It's a MASSIVE step forward for him- the kind of thing that, you know, you might build a Climax story around?

And then, we come to the end, where the intensity of the song does not let up, before it all crashes to an end as the lights go dark and Alkaloid go still

To me, this is the Alkaloid Climax, the song that I will remember. They have gone from a group thrown together to a cohesive unit with a sound unlike anyone else in the franchise, and all of whom have had character growth. It's the one that they deserve going into the new era that is upcoming, and even has a level of finality to it, seeing as how it was released right at the end of the year.

Alkaloid deserved better than Undying Holy Love, and boy, did they get it...

[pyrrhocorax]

Hi there was a playlist attached to one of your fics on ffn.net, I tried to find it today but it looks like your fics there are deleted :( do you still happen to have the playlist somewhere? I understand if you have moved on from that era of your digital footprint.

oooooh interesting! it does initially look like that everything is gone, but somehow i managed to. work around it??? and get back in there??? so i have access to everything and i am gonna. likely back everything up for posterity's sake. not sure where????? but i likely should re-upload all my really old writing somewhere. maybe orphan it on AO3 ?????? ?? idk i gotta think about it. so thanks for the head's up actually. i have def moved on from some of it in the sense that i wrote those stories as an extremely unstable mentally ill teenager with a laundry list of diagnosed mental/developmental disorders that i should have been institutionalized for that was deeply traumatized by a lot of things and trying to sort it all out. it was def a project of the times and my mental state/being a Youth. so i am not completely removed from it (why i left everything up -- writing helped me figure stuff out, but also helped a LOT of other people struggling with those same things, and that's what matters most to me, that i helped somebody who is struggling as deeply as i was back then, even if i've changed my interpretations of things since and would drastically re-write entire aspects of it if i re-wrote it today). and the way i view my writing is once it is in the public space it is no longer fully mine and my intent behind it is on the same level as another person's interpretation of my intent. i don't really remember what i write after i write it ngl, so it ceases to feel like it is fully mine to me once it's been a few months. ANYWAY rambling sorry my Assumption is that you are talking about Silence??? In which case, here is the soundtrack, Song - Band - any special time I used the song specifically Springleik - Gåte - Negative: Switch (Chapter 1) Curtigh - Punch Brothers - Positive: Siblings (Chapter 13) Packt Like Sardines in a Crush'd Tin Box - Radiohead - Negative Vault (Chapter 18) The Blind Leaving the Blind Mvt 2 - Punch Brothers - Denmark-centric chapters Fljótavik - Sigur Rós - Positive chapters Built For This - Ben Sollee - Positive: Every (Chapter 23), Iceland-centric And the Forest Began to Sing - Röyksopp - nature-centric chapters Singing with the Whales - Yukimi Yamamoto - Negative: Ships (Chapter 26) 3055 - Ólafur Arnalds - negative chapters Fel del Av Gården - Movits! - Positive: Siblings (Chapter 13), Positive: Hidden (Chapter 7) Tornado - Jónsi - negative chapters Everything Can Explode - The Ghost - positive chaoters Brand New Sidewalk - Nickel Creek - Neutrality: Equilibrium Little Talks - Of Monsters and Men - general theme You Are - Punch Brothers - the song Denmark sings in Positive: Skype (Chapter 25) i also remade it for you here: Youtube Playlist (says there is one thing missing for some reason?) Spotify Playlist (unfortunately missing a few songs too) also spoilers under cut for a new project i am going to be working on in the near future below b/c it is relevant to Silence, if Silence was important to you.

the next project i am going to write is a direct sequel to Sendlingur og Sandloá (era 2 pyrr writing, versus silence is era 1, we're currently beginning era 3), if you have ever read it. technically speaking, the few main things I still really like about Silence (unusual non-linear narrative structure, nor being mute, some of the philosophic arguments it makes, etc) and some of the events of Silence are "canon" prequel events to what happens in SOS. Silence isn't a prequel to SOS, but Silence is essentially the prototype version of SOS in that without Silence, SOS would have never existed and SOS was directly built upon Silence's corpse. i mean death of the author and all of that, but there isn't any denying that if you analyze the two works i think that is a very easy conclusion to come to. the new project i'm currently formulating is essentially taking SOS and those aspects of Silence i think are still valuable now that i am nearly twice as old as when i wrote it, and putting them both into a blender and seeing what happens when i reconstruct them. you will not have to read Silence or even SOS to read it, but if you have read either or both you'll go AH YOU MOTHERFUCKER at me, probably, a lot, when reading it. :/

ANYWAY SORRY FOR RAMBLING i am a ramblin sort of man lol.

#pyrrhocorax ask #i have a lot of mixed feelings on silence b/c some aspects are harmful to me now but others are very Real. but i also don't want to #pretend it wasn't a part of my past b/c it is only by understanding where you come from that you can understand the present and the future #it's ok to be young and filled with unbridled pain and use that to make some weird art to cope. shouldn't pretend it's not part of all of u #we've got to be WAY gentler and loving and honest about the human condition i think for the sake of all of us. anyway gonna stop rambling n #w. the w alone is mking me laugh. i need to go back to bed (i won't) lol.

Life and Such

I finished my grad program! I AM FREE from academia!! (except for the part where I want to work in academia)

I vanished into the woods last Saturday as a treat to myself, and I had the best time. I sat on a hill overlooking the lake and watched the sun sparkle in brilliant diamonds over deep blue water. I lay on pine needles soft as a bed and read a book, with no sound but the birds and the wind. I wandered alone through tall pines and passed so many vernal pools that spilled out onto the path. I saw a family of geese with fluffy goslings, and I met someone who complimented my Sigur Rós t-shirt (if you’re going to meet someone who compliments your Sigur Rós t-shirt, it’s probably going to be in the middle of the woods). The whole day was just soul-restoring. I hiked nine miles over eight hours and had an amazing time :)

Went for a picnic and a walk around a pond with @eclipsemidnight​ on Sunday, which was very nice (there were swings! and flowers!) and then I went to another pond after work one day and got devoured by mosquitos while looking at swans and herons in the reeds across the water

I actually have a lot of friends? Something I periodically re-realize about myself is that underneath the withering social anxiety, I’m actually sort of…social? I like people? I like having lots of friends? I have my close friends from college, a couple friends from my hometown, my roommates, and friends from my grad program, plus there’s a local trans group I go to periodically and a weekly trivia night I go to, and that’s like…a robust social life? On occasion I am overwhelmed by all the social commitments I have? But they’re fun, because I like all these people and want to keep them in my life? Every sentence here ends in a question mark because this is so wildly outside of how I see myself, but compelling evidence indicates that I have many friends and enjoy being social with them. Wow.

I’m just not very ambitious. I like my chosen field, and I’m excited to work in it, but I really just want A Job, any job. Meanwhile my classmates are pursuing high level research instruction positions etc, and…I just don’t really care what I do. I want a job I enjoy that I feel like has some meaning in the world, and I want to do it quietly and well and forget about it when I leave at the end of the day.

My roommate pointed out a while ago that I only eat three vegetables (spinach, brussels sprouts, and broccoli, with an honorable mention to asparagus), and so I’m embarking on a Quest to try a new vegetable every week. This week it was peppers, specifically red bell peppers, which were…decent. At first I just threw them in a pan with some eggs to make some kind of scramble, which was ok, and then I tried olive oil and some herbs, which was…also not delicious, but fine. I’ll eat them again, but I think I need to experiment with method.

Park weather is upon us!!! which means that at every conceivable opportunity I’ve been haring off to patches of trees with a good book and stretching out in the sunlight. The sudden advent of park weather also coincides with the end of school for a) me!! and b) the college whose students always clog up my commute to work, meaning that the structure and texture of my days has improved dramatically

I’m obsessed with Enter Shikari’s new song Jailbreak, which sounds like it’s designed for building up the crowd into a fucking awesome mosh pit, but I dearly wish moshing had weight classes, because while I love running and jumping around and slamming into things, most people in the pit are twice my body weight and that’s not fun dancing/proprioceptive stimming, that’s dangerous. In the meantime I’m just throwing myself around my room and annoying the neighbors

I’m trying to have new and varied hobbies, and part of that is spending less time reading books, which is entirely…uh, novel for me. I am very much the kind of person who’s sort of a book first and a human second, and reading is such a default part of my life I don’t even really think of it as a hobby. Historically my instinct is “read!” every time I have even a second of free time. But I want to have other hobbies and do new things! I have never organically wanted this before so it’s a bit bemusing, but I am starting by trying to embroider more and also make some really shitty baby zines.

Afram Ísland – My Trip to Iceland

“Anyone can go to Japan or USA, but not everyone gets to go to Iceland”.

While everyone has ambitions to visit Asia or the Americas, I’ve always wanted to visit Iceland. This dream started around mid-2016 when I was on Instagram, seeing some of Mark Forrer’s work.

At first, it was the travel photography aspect that inspired me to make the trip. Then I found out LazyTown was made in this country and it gave me more of a reason to visit.

Just saying, convincing my parent to let me go here wasn’t easy since they have no idea what Iceland is. I kept using multiple of my cards to do the trip. “Do it for my birthday!”, “Christmas???”, “I have a (former) friend who’s going and we plan to go together“, “Graduation Trip?!“. Eventually, the trip happened… not because of my persistence, not because I was able to save up money… because 2 of my parents’ old co-workers in the Philippines shared photos on Facebook.

Yes… it was their old co-workers that convinced them to go to Iceland.

So after 1 year of saving up $6000 AUD, some “pocket money” from grandma, and getting recommendations from Instagram and online friends, we were off to Iceland!

What do I know about Iceland?

All I knew was that Iceland is a country in Europe. It’s where LazyTown was made and produced. And it’s a good place to go if you’re an aspiring travel photographer.

I barely know any Icelandic artist. I didn’t know who Bjork or Sigur Ros was. All I knew were Greta Salome, Matthias Matthiason, Sylvia Erla, Unnur Eggerts, and anyone who was either involved in LazyTown or Eurovision.

Yeah… my knowledge about Iceland is limited.

It wasn’t until I was talking to a few people who either visited or lived in Iceland + some YouTube channels to learn more information about their geography.

First Impressions

When I first arrived in Iceland, I was somewhat happy that it was finally cold (I was in the UK prior for a few days). The bus ride from Keflavik to Reykjavik was somewhat scenic as it’s not many buildings, more on landscapes.

The architecture of the buildings was interesting as it’s all stone. It somewhat reminds me of some houses in the Philippines. You rarely see modern looking houses.

One thing that caught my eye is that it never gets dark in the summer. I’m a night owl and staying up till 12-1am and just seeing the sun beginning to set… it’s something you don’t see every day.

The Travel Photography aspect

The main reason why I’m in Iceland is to take photos.

I like photography and at least most of the areas you visit, it makes a really good photo. Even downtown Reykjavik, it’s very photogenic if you know where to look.

Not only the iconic landscapes are beautiful but also the buildings.

But I also liked venturing outside of the main town and visiting the iconic spots. From all the places I’ve visited such as Kirkjufell, Skógafoss, Sólheimajökull glacier, and etc, I was looking forward to seeing the iconic US Navy DC-3 Plane Wreckage at Sólheimasandur.

The LazyTown Aspect

I’m now a casual LazyTown fan since 2018.

I used to be a hardcore fan but I went down to casual because life got in the way. But it doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten the facts I’ve learned and the show that I still love and enjoy till this day.

Originally – I wanted to go to the transport museum in Borgarnes. The problem is that I can’t drive and a taxi service no longer exists. So plan B – WALK AROUND REYKJAVIK!!!

What fans don’t seem to realize is that there are much more spots to hit if you do a “LazyTown Pilgrimage” around the city. In fact – there are 4!!!

1. Rocket studios (where Jol í Latabae was recorded)

2. Landsbókasafns Íslands – Háskólabókasafns (National Library of Iceland – University Library)

3. The National Theater

4 ROK – Magnus Scheving’s restaurant

But the most memorable part of this trip was when I met Máni Svavarsson! He was really nice and we did talk a lot. I have so many stories but that will be in a video for another day.

The tourist aspect

And of course – as this is a graduation trip, I’d want to see what Iceland has to offer. The best thing about this part is that since everything almost in walking distance, there will be a surprise right around the corner.

For me, that was the cat cafe called Kattakaffihúsið. I NEVER KNEW THERE WAS A CAT CAFE IN REYKJAVIK!!!!

WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL ME ABOUT THIS!?!?!

Blue Lagoon was also nice! Warm though… but it was nice and relaxing that I can see why it’s the “go-to” place in Iceland.

Nám er Gott (Learning is Good)

Asides from the touristy, fandom-y, and photography aspects that Iceland has to offer, I did get to learn something new each day. During one of my tours, we learned that the glaciers in Iceland are melting and if things don’t improve, all the glaciers will melt after 200 years.

It’s kinda a shame since I want to go to a glacier cave that I’ve seen in a few travel photos and videos. When I was climbing up, you can see small puddles and rivers cutting through the ice as the water is 2 degrees warmer than the ice itself. The black ash/dirt helps insulate the glacier but it’s not enough to keep it cool forever.

Funny enough – the museum was NAMED AFTER HIM (Kjarvalsstaðir – Kjarval’s place).

Each day was a new adventure

Not gonna lie, but each day, I’ve got to see something new or unexpected. Going to Iceland was like the trip of my life. I’ve appreciated every moment when I was there and I wish I could stay a little longer.

There are places and things I wished to visit such as the Kolaportid Flea Market or ACTUALLY GO to the Transport Museum in Borgarnes. Maybe also see the Northen Lights (but that’s only during winter)… but who knows, maybe next time.

But overall, I enjoyed my time in Iceland. I do hope I’d get to come back again in the future! For now, it’s back to saving money for the next great adventure.

I’ve filmed a lot of my trip here in Iceland, detailing more of what just happened. So expect multi-episode daily vlogs appearing on my YouTube channel soon.

Terapii perfuzabil: ce sunt, cum funcționează și ce beneficii au

Terapiile perfuzabil sunt tratamente medicale care constau în administrarea intravenoasă a unor substanțe nutritive, cum ar fi vitamine, minerale, antioxidanți sau aminoacizi. Aceste substanțe ajung direct în fluxul sanguin, ocolind barierele digestive și metabolice, și pot avea efecte benefice asupra sănătății și stării de bine.

Ce tipuri de terapii perfuzabil există?

Există mai multe tipuri de terapii perfuzabil, în funcție de scopul și compoziția lor. Unele dintre cele mai cunoscute și utilizate sunt:

Terapii perfuzabil pentru restabilirea echilibrului hidro-electrolitic și acido-bazic. Acestea sunt indicate în cazuri de deshidratare, pierderi de lichide și electroliți, tulburări de aciditate sau alcalinitate a sângelui, intoxicații sau infecții.

Terapii perfuzabil pentru alimentare parenterală. Acestea sunt folosite în situații în care pacientul nu poate sau nu trebuie să se alimenteze pe cale orală, de exemplu în caz de intervenții chirurgicale, boli gastro-intestinale, anorexie sau malnutriție. Perfuziile conțin glucoză, proteine, lipide, vitamine și minerale necesare organismului.

Terapii perfuzabil cu înlocuitori de plasmă. Acestea sunt soluții care au rolul de a crește volumul sanguin și de a îmbunătăți circulația, fiind utile în caz de șoc, hemoragii, arsuri sau traumatisme.

Terapii perfuzabil cu vitamine și minerale. Acestea sunt cocktail-uri care conțin diverse vitamine și minerale esențiale pentru organism, cum ar fi vitamina C, vitamina B, magneziu, zinc, seleniu etc. Scopul lor este de a stimula sistemul imunitar, de a combate stresul oxidativ, de a îmbunătăți performanța fizică și mentală, de a preveni sau trata anumite afecțiuni.

Ce beneficii au terapiile perfuzabil?

Terapiile perfuzabil pot avea numeroase beneficii pentru sănătate, în funcție de tipul și doza de substanțe administrate. Unele dintre efectele pozitive pe care le pot avea sunt:

Hidratarea și reechilibrarea organismului

Creșterea energiei și a vitalității

Întărirea sistemului imunitar și a rezistenței la infecții

Reducerea inflamației și a durerii

Ameliorarea simptomelor de oboseală, depresie, anxietate, migrenă, alergii, astm etc.

Îmbunătățirea aspectului pielii, părului și unghiilor

Prevenirea sau tratarea unor boli cronice, cum ar fi diabetul, hipertensiunea, artrita, osteoporoza etc.

Încetinirea procesului de îmbătrânire și a degenerării celulare

Ce riscuri și contraindicații au terapiile perfuzabil?

Terapiile perfuzabil sunt în general sigure și bine tolerate, dacă sunt efectuate de personal medical calificat și în condiții de asepsie și antisepsie. Totuși, ca orice tratament, pot exista și unele riscuri și contraindicații, cum ar fi:

Reacții adverse la substanțele administrate, cum ar fi alergii, greață, amețeli, transpirații, palpitații etc.

Complicații la locul de puncție, cum ar fi infecții, hematoame, flebite, tromboze etc.

Supradozaj sau hipervitaminoză, în cazul administrării excesive sau necorespunzătoare a unor vitamine sau minerale

Interacțiuni cu alte medicamente sau suplimente pe care pacientul le ia

Contraindicații în caz de sarcină, alăptare, boli renale, hepatice, cardiace, sanguine etc.

De aceea, este foarte important ca terapiile perfuzabil să fie prescrise și monitorizate de un medic, care să țină cont de istoricul medical, de analizele de laborator și de starea generală a pacientului.

Cum se desfășoară o ședință de terapie perfuzabil?

O ședință de terapie perfuzabil durează între 30 și 60 de minute, în funcție de tipul și cantitatea de substanțe administrate. Pacientul este așezat confortabil pe un pat sau pe un scaun, iar asistenta medicală îi introduce un cateter într-o venă periferică, de obicei la nivelul brațului. Apoi, se conectează perfuzia cu soluția dorită, care curge lent în fluxul sanguin. Pacientul poate citi, asculta muzică, vorbi sau chiar dormi în timpul ședinței. La final, se scoate cateterul și se aplică un pansament steril la locul de puncție. Pacientul poate pleca acasă imediat după ședință, fără a avea nevoie de repaus sau de alte restricții.

Unde se pot face terapii perfuzabil?

Terapiile perfuzabil se pot face în centre medicale specializate, care dispun de echipamente și personal adecvate. De asemenea, există și posibilitatea de a face terapii perfuzabil la domiciliu, dacă pacientul nu se poate deplasa sau preferă să beneficieze de tratament în intimitatea propriei locuințe. În acest caz, este necesar să se asigure condițiile de igienă și siguranță, precum și supravegherea medicală permanentă.

Cât costă o terapie perfuzabil?

Costul unei terapii perfuzabil variază în funcție de tipul și doza de substanțe administrate, de numărul de ședințe necesare, de locul unde se efectuează tratamentul și de alte servicii incluse. În general, prețul unei ședințe de terapie perfuzabil poate fi între 200 și 1000 de lei, iar un tratament complet poate ajunge la câteva mii de lei. Unele clinici oferă și pachete sau abonamente avantajoase pentru pacienții fideli sau pentru cei care doresc să facă terapii perfuzabil în mod regulat.

Concluzie

Terapiile perfuzabil sunt tratamente medicale care pot avea efecte benefice asupra sănătății și stării de bine, dacă sunt efectuate corect și sub supraveghere medicală. Ele pot fi folosite pentru a trata sau preveni anumite afecțiuni, pentru a stimula sistemul imunitar, pentru a îmbunătăți performanța fizică și mentală, pentru a încetini procesul de îmbătrânire și pentru a îmbunătăți aspectul pielii, părului și unghiilor. Terapiile perfuzabil se pot face în centre medicale specializate sau la domiciliu, în funcție de preferințele și posibilitățile pacientului.

De ce este esentiala expertizarea tehnica pentru o constructie?

Lumea expertizei tehnice este vasta, cuprinzand domenii precum evaluarea seismica, extinderea sau etajarea constructiilor, evaluarea starii tehnice, obtinerea autorizatiei de construire, aducerea constructiilor in legalitate, reabilitarea termica, recompartimentarea spatiului interior sau verificarea sigurantei post hazard. Intr-un cuvant, pentru orice modificare adusa unei constructii existente, expertiza tehnica devine esentiala. Desigur, exista exceptii, precum lucrari de mica anvergura, cum ar fi refacerea finisajelor sau inlocuirea tamplariilor. Servicii Cadastru Ce tip de Expertiza Tehnica este necesara? Situatiile care impun o expertiza tehnica sunt variate. Vom explora cele trei tipuri de expertize tehnice cele mai intalnite pentru persoanele fizice: a. Evaluare Stare Tehnica Expertiza de evaluare a starii tehnice a unei constructii existente implica un studiu specializat, abordand aspecte cheie precum: - Respectarea cerintelor de proiectare conform reglementarilor tehnice; - Executarea proiectului conform specificatiilor; - Calitatea lucrarilor efectuate; - Identificarea neconformitatilor sau degradarilor. b.
