A mitre joint is used to connect two pieces of wood, most often those that have been cut at a 45-degree angle. Mitre joints are most famously used to create picture frames, but are also commonly used to construct wood paneling, cabinets, wooden boxes, window frames, door frames, tables, and molding.

Is your sliding window stuck, hard to move, or won’t close properly? Here’s how to fix it!
Clean the Tracks – Dirt & dust build up over time! Vacuum, wipe, and apply a silicone-based lubricant for a smooth glide.
Check the Rollers – Lift the window out, inspect the rollers, and replace them if worn out. Adjust for a perfect fit!
Fix Misalignment – If the window doesn’t close right, loosen the screws, adjust the frame, and tighten it back.
Repair the Lock – Tighten loose screws or replace a broken lock for better security.
Replace Broken Glass – Carefully remove cracked glass & install a new one with putty or rubber gaskets.
A little maintenance can keep your windows sliding like new!

Clarke Quay, a vibrant riverside entertainment district in Singapore, was redesigned in the 1990s by renowned Singaporean architect William Lim, a key figure in modern Asian architecture. Lim was known for his commitment to sustainable urbanism and adaptive reuse, blending heritage conservation with contemporary design. His approach to Clarke Quay revitalized the historical waterfront area, transforming it into a lively destination while preserving its colonial-era shophouses.
Materials Used in Clarke Quay:
The redevelopment of Clarke Quay incorporated a mix of traditional and modern materials to maintain its historic charm while enhancing functionality:
Steel and Glass – Used for the iconic umbrella-like canopies, providing weather protection while allowing natural light.
Polycarbonate Panels – Applied to the roof structures for translucency, reducing heat while maintaining daylighting.
Timber and Brick – Retained from the original shophouses to preserve historical authenticity.
Concrete and Metal – Reinforced structures for durability and modern functionality.
Through this mix of materials, William Lim successfully created a space that bridges Singapore’s colonial heritage with contemporary urban life, making Clarke Quay a cultural and social hub.
