Mechanical rebar connections, also known as mechanical splices or mechanical coupler, are used to join lengths of rebar together to transfer forces from one steel rebar to another. [1] [2] Rebar coupler. Mechanical couplers can be advantageous in comparison with conventional methods of lap splicing because of the requirement for less steel for ...

A body bag, also known as a cadaver pouch or human remains pouch (HRP), is a non-porous bag designed to contain a human body, used for the storage and transportation of shrouded corpses.
Lapping machine. Lapping is a machining process in which two surfaces are rubbed together with an abrasive between them, by hand movement or using a machine. Lapping often follows other subtractive processes with more aggressive material removal as a first step, such as milling and/or grinding. Lapping can take two forms.
Within the trades rebar is known by a shorthand utilizing the bar diameter as descriptor, such as "four-bar" for bar that is four-eighths (or one-half) of an inch. The cross-sectional area of a bar, as given by πr², works out to (bar size/9.027)², which is approximated as (bar size/9)² square inches. For example, the area of #8 bar is (8/9 ...
A coupler connecting a crank and a slider in a single slider crank mechanism is often called a connecting rod, however, it has also been used to refer to any type of coupler. There are three basic types of planar four-bar linkage, depending on the use of revolute or prismatic joints:
Full-body hook-and-loop suits have been made that can hold a person to a suitably covered wall. When one or both of the pieces is flexible, e.g., a pocket flap, the pieces can be pulled apart with a peeling action that applies the force to relatively few hooks at a time.
Alternatively it is a short length of pipe with two female National pipe threads (NPT) (in North American terms, a coupler is a double female while a nipple is double male) or two male or female British standard pipe threads. If the two ends of a coupling are of different standards or joining methods, the coupling is called an adapter. Examples ...
A compression fitting 15 mm isolating valve. A compression fitting is a fitting used in plumbing and electrical conduit systems to join two tubes or thin-walled pipes together. . In instances where two pipes made of dissimilar materials are to be joined (most commonly PVC and copper), the fittings will be made of one or more compatible materials appropriate for the connect
