  2. Engineering drawing abbreviations and symbols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_drawing...

    An order from the engineering department (to be followed by the production department or vendor) overriding/superseding a detail on the drawing, which gets superseded with revised information. Also called by various other names, such as engineering change order (ECO), engineering change notice (ECN), drawing change notice (DCN), and so on.

  3. .dwg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.dwg

    DWG is merely descriptive of applicant's goods under Section 2(e)(1) of the Trademark Act for two reasons: (1) DWG is a recognized abbreviation for "drawing," and (2) .dwg is a file format used for computer-aided design (CAD) drawings made both with applicant's CAD software and others' CAD software. Autodesk appealed the decision.

  4. Shop drawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shop_drawing

    The shop drawing normally shows more detail than the construction documents. It is drawn to explain the fabrication and/or installation of the items to the manufacturer’s production crew or contractor's installation crews. The style of the shop drawing is usually very different from that of the architect’s drawing.

  7. Extrusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrusion

    Aluminium is the most commonly extruded material. Aluminium can be hot or cold extruded. If it is hot extruded it is heated to 575 to 1100 °F (300 to 600 °C). Examples of products include profiles for tracks, frames, rails, mullions, and heat sinks. Brass is used to extrude corrosion free rods, automobile parts, pipe fittings, engineering parts.

  8. Aluminium–silicon alloys - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium–silicon_alloys

    Aluminum cannot be dissolved in silicon at all, not even at high temperatures. Only in the molten state are both completely soluble. Increases in strength due to solid solution strengthening are negligible. [7] Pure AlSi alloys are smelted from primary aluminium, while AlSi alloys with other elements are usually smelted from secondary aluminium.

  9. Curtain wall (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtain_wall_(architecture)

    Relative to other building components, aluminum has a high heat transfer coefficient, meaning that aluminum is a very good conductor of heat. This translates into high heat loss through aluminum (or steel) curtain wall mullions. There are several ways to compensate for this heat loss, the most common way being the addition of thermal breaks.
