  2. Wood preservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_preservation

    Copper azole treated wood is marketed widely under the Preserve CA and Wolmanized brands in North America, and the Tanalith brand across Europe and other international markets. The AWPA standard retention for CA-B is 0.10 lb/cu ft (1.6 kg/m 3) for above ground applications and 0.21 lb/cu ft (3.4 kg/m 3) for ground contact applications. Type C ...

    The copper in ACQ treated wood accelerates corrosion of galvanized steel fasteners (such as nails and screws) 10 times or more in comparison with CCA-treated wood. Stainless steel (AISI 316) is not affected. [7] Aluminium and Galvalum fasteners should be avoided. [8] One should use fasteners made of hot-dipped galvanized steel, copper, or ...

  6. Contact mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_mechanics

    Normal contact mechanics or frictionless contact mechanics focuses on normal stresses caused by applied normal forces and by the adhesion present on surfaces in close contact, even if they are clean and dry. Frictional contact mechanics emphasizes the effect of friction forces. Contact mechanics is part of mechanical engineering.

  7. Ground pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_pressure

    The ground pressure of motorized vehicles is often compared with the ground pressure of a human foot, which can be 60 – 80 kPa while walking or as much as 13 MPa for a person in spike heels. [ 3 ] Increasing the size of the contact area on the ground (the footprint ) in relation to the weight decreases the unit ground pressure.
