  2. Ship measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_measurements

    Grain Cube (or Grain Capacity) – The maximum space available for cargo measured in cubic metres or feet, the measurement being taken to the inside of the shell plating of the ship or to the outside of the frames and to the top of the beam or underside of the deck plating. It is a measurement of capacity for cargoes such as grain, where the ...

  3. Beam (nautical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beam_(nautical)

    The beam of a ship is its width at its widest point. The maximum beam (B MAX ) is the distance between planes passing through the outer sides of the ship, beam of the hull (B H ) only includes permanently fixed parts of the hull , and beam at waterline (B WL ) is the maximum width where the hull intersects the surface of the water.

  4. Beam diameter - Wikipedia

    The 1/e 2 width is equal to the distance between the two points on the marginal distribution that are 1/e 2 = 0.135 times the maximum value. In many cases, it makes more sense to take the distance between points where the intensity falls to 1/e 2 = 0.135 times the maximum value.

    I-beams are still available in US sizes from many Canadian manufacturers. In Mexico, steel I-beams are called IR and commonly specified using the depth and weight of ...

  6. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflection_(engineering)

    The beam is originally straight, and any taper is slight; The beam experiences only linear elastic deformation; The beam is slender (its length to height ratio is greater than 10) Only small deflections are considered (max deflection less than 1/10 of the span).

  7. Structural steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_steel

    Structural steel shapes, sizes, chemical composition, mechanical properties such as strengths, storage practices, etc., are regulated by standards in most industrialized countries. Most structural steel shapes, such as Ɪ-beams , have high second moments of area , which means they are very stiff in respect to their cross-sectional area and ...
