  2. Dynamic line rating for electric utilities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_line_rating_for...

    These devices measure temperature, tension, sag and/or clearance from which the thermal rating is determined. Indirect measurement methods use weather stations and modeling. Direct methods give actual conductor state condition with respect to clearance rules and/or maximum conductor temperature, while indirect methods provide estimates based on ...

  3. Building performance simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_performance...

    The objective of building performance simulation is the quantification of aspects of building performance which are relevant to the design, construction, operation and control of buildings. [1] Building performance simulation has various sub-domains; most prominent are thermal simulation, lighting simulation, acoustical simulation and air flow ...

  4. Hogging and sagging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hogging_and_sagging

    Hogging is the stress a ship's hull or keel experiences that causes the center or the keel to bend upward. Sagging is the stress a ship's hull or keel is placed under when a wave is the same length as the ship and the ship is in the trough of two waves.

    Measuring the compressive strength of a steel drum. In mechanics, compressive strength (or compression strength) is the capacity of a material or structure to withstand loads tending to reduce size (compression).

  7. Construction estimating software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_estimating...

    Construction cost estimating software is computer software designed for contractors to estimate construction costs for a specific project. A cost estimator will typically use estimating software to estimate their bid price for a project, which will ultimately become part of a resulting construction contract. Some architects, engineers ...

  8. Types of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_concrete

    The ingredients in any particular mix depends on the nature of the application. Regular concrete can typically withstand a pressure from about 10 MPa (1450 psi) to 40 MPa (5800 psi), with lighter duty uses such as blinding concrete having a much lower MPa rating than structural concrete. Many types of pre-mixed concrete are available which ...

  9. Specific strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_strength

    The specific strength is a material's (or muscle's) strength (force per unit area at failure) divided by its density.It is also known as the strength-to-weight ratio or strength/weight ratio or strength-to-mass ratio.
