  2. T-beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-beam

    Unlike an I-beam, a T-beam lacks a bottom flange, which carries savings in terms of materials, but at the loss of resistance to tensile forces. [5] T- beam designs come in many sizes, lengths and widths to suit where they are to be used (eg highway bridge, underground parking garage) and how they have to resist the tension, compression and shear stresses associated with beam bending in their ...

  3. Gusset plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gusset_plate

    A KT gusset plate connects several members together through one gusset plate. The gusset plate is welded to a beam, and then two or three columns, beams, or truss chord are connected to the other side of the gusset plate through bolts or rivets or welds. [3] A uniform force bracing connection connects a beam, column, and one other member.

  4. Steam bending - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_bending

    Steam bending is limited in the degree of bend it can achieve, particularly for thick wood. Also, not all species of wood steam-bend well. [2] It weakens the wood slightly and can leave residual stresses which may cause breakage, blowouts or spring-back over time. To properly bend a sheet or plank of wood, there are a few techniques that will help.

    Rebar. Rebar is a steel bar or mesh of steel wires used in reinforced concrete and masonry structures to strengthen and hold the concrete in tension. The surface of rebar is often patterned to improve the quality of the bond with the concrete. Rebar is necessary to add tensile strength, while concrete is strong in compression. It can support ...

  6. Quarter sawing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarter_sawing

    This can be done in three ways: plain-sawing (most common, also known as flat-sawn, bastard-sawn, through and through, and tangent-sawn), quarter-sawing (less common), or rift sawing (rare). In flat sawing , the log is passed through the blade cutting off plank after plank without changing the orientation of the blade or log.

  7. Formwork - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formwork

    A table is built pretty much the same way as a beam formwork but the single parts of this system are connected together in a way that makes them transportable. The most common sheathing is plywood, but steel and fiberglass are used. The joists are either made from timber, engineered lumber (often in the form of I-beams), aluminium or steel. The ...
