  2. Fibre-reinforced plastic tanks and vessels - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibre-reinforced_plastic...

    Typical FRP vessels and constructs limits are almost entirely based on the application parameters and resins used. The thermoplastic resin will suffer from creep at elevated temperatures and ultimately fail. However, new chemistry has produced resins that claim to be able to achieve even higher temperatures, which expand this field immensely ...

  3. Watertable control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watertable_control

    In geotechnical engineering, watertable control is the practice of controlling the height of the water table by drainage.Its main applications are in agricultural land (to improve the crop yield using agricultural drainage systems) and in cities to manage the extensive underground infrastructure that includes the foundations of large buildings, underground transit systems, and extensive ...

    Double-walled pipe system may use plastic pressure pipe systems materials of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), polypropylene (PP), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), and ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer (ECTFE).

  5. Atterberg limits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atterberg_limits

    The Atterberg limits are a basic measure of the critical water contents of a fine-grained soil: its shrinkage limit, plastic limit, and liquid limit. Depending on its water content, soil may appear in one of four states: solid, semi-solid, plastic and liquid. In each state, the consistency and behavior of soil are different, and consequently so ...

  6. Flow device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_device

    The Fence and Pipe flow device needs very little maintenance and limits where and how high the beavers can dam; however, to be most effective, the intake end of the pipe should usually sit in at least 3 feet (91 cm) of water. When this water depth is not possible, a simple Culvert Protective Fence may be the best option.

  7. Plastic talks gather steam amid impasse over production limits

    With plastic production on track to triple by 2050, such levels "are unsustainable and far exceed our recycling and waste management capacities," said Rwanda chief negotiator Juliet Kabera.

  8. Culvert - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Culvert

    Culverts can be constructed of a variety of materials including cast-in-place or precast concrete (reinforced or non-reinforced), galvanized steel, aluminum, or plastic (typically high-density polyethylene). Two or more materials may be combined to form composite structures. For example, open-bottom corrugated steel structures are often built ...
