2. Poly(methyl methacrylate) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(methyl_methacrylate)

   PMMA ignites at 460 °C (860 °F) and burns, forming carbon dioxide, water, carbon monoxide, and low-molecular-weight compounds, including formaldehyde. [17] PMMA transmits up to 92% of visible light (3 mm (0.12 in) thickness), [18] and gives a reflection of about 4% from each of its surfaces due to its refractive index (1.4905 at 589.3 nm). [3]

3. Cost estimate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cost_estimate

   A cost estimate is the approximation of the cost of a program, project, or operation. The cost estimate is the product of the cost estimating process. The cost estimate has a single total value and may have identifiable component values. A problem with a cost overrun can be avoided with a credible, reliable, and accurate cost estimate. A cost ...

4. Glossary of construction cost estimating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_construction...

   A Allocation of costs is the transfer of costs from one cost item to one or more other cost items. Allowance - a value in an estimate to cover the cost of known but not yet fully defined work. As-sold estimate - the estimate which matches the agreed items and price for the project scope. B Basis of estimate (BOE) - a document which describes the scope basis, pricing basis, methods ...

5. Concrete slab - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_slab

   Steel-reinforced slabs, typically between 100 and 500 mm thick, are most often used to construct floors and ceilings, while thinner mud slabs may be used for exterior paving (see below). [1] [2] In many domestic and industrial buildings, a thick concrete slab supported on foundations or directly on the subsoil, is

6. Mass concrete - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_concrete

   Mass concrete is defined by American Concrete Institute Committee 207 as "any volume of concrete with dimensions large enough to require that measures be taken to cope with the generation of heat from the hydration of cement and attendant volume change to minimize cracking."

7. Hollow-core slab - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow-core_slab

   The precast concrete slab has tubular voids extending the full length of the slab, typically with a diameter equal to the 2/3–3/4 the thickness of the slab. This makes the slab much lighter than a massive solid concrete floor slab of equal thickness or strength. The reduced weight also lowers material and transportation costs.
