2. Concrete cover - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_cover

   Concrete cover, in reinforced concrete, is the least distance between the surface of embedded reinforcement and the outer surface of the concrete (ACI 130). The concrete cover depth can be measured with a cover meter. The purpose of concrete cover is to protect the reinforcement from corrosion, fire, and other potential damage.

3. Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_2:_Design_of...

   Logo of Eurocode 2 An example of a concrete structure. In the Eurocode series of European standards (EN) related to construction, Eurocode 2: Design of concrete structures (abbreviated EN 1992 or, informally, EC 2) specifies technical rules for the design of concrete, reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete structures, using the limit state design philosophy.

4. Eurocode 4: Design of composite steel and concrete structures

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocode_4:_Design_of...

   EN 1994-1-2 deals with the design of composite steel and concrete structures for the accidental situation of fire exposure and is intended to be used in conjunction with EN 1994-1-1 and EN 1991-1-2. This part only identifies differences from, or supplements to, normal temperature design and deals only with passive methods of fire protection.

5. Cover meter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cover_Meter

   A cover meter is an instrument to locate rebars and measure the exact concrete cover. Rebar detectors are less sophisticated devices that can only locate metallic objects below the surface. Due to the cost-effective design, the pulse-induction method is one of the most commonly used solutions. [1]

7. New Austrian tunneling method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Austrian_tunneling_method

   The new Austrian tunneling method (NATM), also known as the sequential excavation method (SEM) or sprayed concrete lining method [1] (SCL), is a method of modern tunnel design and construction employing sophisticated monitoring to optimize various wall reinforcement techniques based on the type of rock encountered as tunneling progresses.

8. BS National Beehive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BS_National_Beehive

   The roof shown in the MAFF leaflet is a telescoping cover, with internal dimensions of 18 + 3 ⁄ 4 in (480 mm), meaning a relatively loose fit over the topmost box. The total height of the roof is (depending on timber thickness) around 6 + 1 ⁄ 4 in (160 mm), though a 4 in (100 mm) roof is now also common.

9. Radio masts and towers - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_masts_and_towers

   A steel lattice tower is cheaper to build than a concrete tower of equal height. Two small towers may be less intrusive, visually, than one big one, especially if they look identical. Towers look less ugly if they and the antennas mounted on them appear symmetrical. Concrete towers can be built with aesthetic design considerations.
