2. Trench drain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench_drain

   Trench drains are commonly confused with French drains, which consist of a perforated pipe that is buried in a gravel bed, and which are used to evacuate ground water. A slot drain , also wrongly associated with a trench drain, consists of a drainage pipe with a thin neck (or slot) that opens at the ground surface with sufficient opening to ...

3. ISO metric screw thread - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_metric_screw_thread

   A metric ISO screw thread is designated by the letter M followed by the value of the nominal diameter D (the maximum thread diameter) and the pitch P, both expressed in millimetres and separated by a dash or sometimes the multiplication sign, × (e.g. M8-1.25 or M8×1.25).

4. Unified Thread Standard - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Thread_Standard

   The standard designation for a UTS thread is a number indicating the nominal (major) diameter of the thread, followed by the pitch measured in threads per inch. For diameters smaller than ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠ inch, the diameter is indicated by an integer number defined in the standard; for all other diameters, the inch figure is given.

5. United States customary units - Wikipedia

   Nominal Pipe Size is used for the outside diameter of pipes. Below NPS14, the NPS number is not consistent with the pipe diameter in inches. Copper tubing, however, is measured in nominal size, 1 ⁄ 8 inch less than the outside diameter. The Schedule system is used for standard pipe thicknesses.

6. Washer (hardware) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washer_(hardware)

   Washers of standard metric sizes equivalent to BS4320 Form A are listed in the table below. Measurements in the table refer to the dimensions of the washers as described by the drawing. Specifications for standard metric flat washers were known as DIN 125 (withdrawn) and replaced with ISO 7089.

7. Nut (hardware) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nut_(hardware)

   The construction firm responsible, Fox Henderson, decided to use nuts and bolts, but to use standardised sizes, a revolutionary method at the time. This enabled the building to be completed in time. The use of interchangeable nuts and bolts was so successful that the Whitworth standard was widely adopted.

8. List of vacuum tubes - Wikipedia

   Some specify which end of the filament is to be powered by the positive side of the filament power supply (usually a battery). All have glass bodies that measure from 0.285 to 0.400 inches (7.2 to 10.2 millimetres) wide, and from 1.25 to 2.00 inches (32 to 51 millimetres) in overall length. 1C8 – Pentagrid converter, R8

9. Truss - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truss

   A planar truss is one where all members and nodes lie within a two-dimensional plane, while a space frame has members and nodes that extend into three dimensions. The top beams in a truss are called 'top chords' and are typically in compression, the bottom beams are called 'bottom chords', and are typically in tension.
