  2. Direct tension indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_tension_indicator

    DTIs are generally installed in accordance with the Research Council on Structural Connections (RCSC) Specification for Structural Joints using High-Strength Bolts. [3] The RCSC specification has been adopted, in its entirety, by the American Institute of Steel Construction ( AISC ) and appears as section 16 of that organization's Steel ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_tolerance

    For example, if a shaft with a nominal diameter of 10 mm is to have a sliding fit within a hole, the shaft might be specified with a tolerance range from 9.964 to 10 mm (i.e., a zero fundamental deviation, but a lower deviation of 0.036 mm) and the hole might be specified with a tolerance range from 10.04 mm to 10.076 mm (0.04 mm fundamental ...

    At that time, high-strength structural steel rivets were common in buildings and bridges, but bolts were expected to be safer, quicker, and more economical if technical equivalence could be demonstrated. The council's first Specification [3] identified ASTM A325 bolts as one-to-one replacements for ASTM A141 rivets. [4]

    The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) is a not-for-profit technical institute and trade association for the use of structural steel in the construction industry of the United States. AISC publishes the Steel Construction Manual, an authoritative volume on steel building structure design that is referenced in all U.S. building codes.

  7. Screw thread - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_thread

    Lead is the distance along the screw's axis that is covered by one complete rotation of the screw thread (360°). Pitch is the distance from the crest of one thread to the next one at the same point. Because the vast majority of screw threadforms are single-start threadforms, their lead and pitch are the same. Single-start means that there is ...

    edge distance Drilled holes, and fasteners are commonly required to have a minimum edge distance (min ED). EO, ECO, ECN: engineering order: 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(to be followed by the production department or vendor) overriding/superseding a detail on the drawing, which gets superseded with revised information.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam

    where I is the moment of inertia of the beam cross-section and c is the distance of the top of the beam from the neutral axis (see beam theory for more details). For a beam of cross-sectional area a and height h , the ideal cross-section would have half the area at a distance ⁠ h / 2 ⁠ above the cross-section and the other half at a ...
