    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubicle

    A cubicle is also called a cubicle desk, office cubicle, cubicle workstation, or simply a cube. An office filled with cubicles is sometimes called a sea of cubicles, and additionally called pods (such as 4-pod or 8-pod of cubes) [6] or a cube farm. Although humorous, the phrase usually has negative connotations. [7]

    Also Abrams' water-cement ratio law. A law which states that the strength of a concrete mix is inversely related to the mass ratio of water to cement. As the water content increases, the strength of the concrete decreases. abrasion The process of scuffing, scratching, wearing down, marring, or rubbing away a substance or substrate. It can be intentionally imposed in a controlled process using ...

  5. Modular construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modular_construction

    Modular construction is a construction technique which involves the prefabrication of 2D panels or 3D volumetric structures in off-site factories and transportation to construction sites for assembly. This process has the potential to be superior to traditional building in terms of both time and costs, with claimed time savings of between 20 ...

  6. 3D concrete printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_concrete_printing

    There are indirect economic benefits from 3D-printed concrete in terms of productivity. The construction sector is often highly traditional and for the most part, processes have remained similar over the past decades. This is in large part because current processes are still effective in many construction applications.

  9. 3D printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_printing

    3D printing, or additive manufacturing, is the construction of a three-dimensional object from a CAD model or a digital 3D model. [1] [2] [3] It can be done in a variety of processes in which material is deposited, joined or solidified under computer control, [4] with the material being added together (such as plastics, liquids or powder grains being fused), typically layer by layer.
