  2. Notch (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    For standardized testing of fracture toughness by the Charpy impact method, specimen and notch dimensions are most often taken from American standard ASTM E23, or British standard BS EN ISO 148-1:2009. For all notch types, a key parameter in governing stress concentration and failure in notched materials is the notch tip curvature or radius. [1]

  3. Notching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notching

    End notching works the end of the tube, such as a semicircular concavity to make the base of a tee, or a convex vee to fit into a mitre. Vee-notched tube, bent for assembly of a mitred joint. Side notching (also called offset notching) works the side of a tube with a vee notch for bending, semicircular or vee notches for tee joint.

  4. Post (structural) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_(structural)

    Lateral Queen – a pair of braced posts between a tie beam and collar beam. Prince – A strut associated with a king post truss. princess – A strut associated with a queen strut but shorter. [25] Crown – A post on a tie beam or collar beam carrying a crown plate. [26] Crown strut: A piece similar to a crown post but not carrying a plate. [27]

  5. Timber roof truss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timber_roof_truss

    [6] [a] Sometimes a Palladian truss is defined as a compound truss with a queen post and king post truss in the same assembly. [7] The queen post truss and the king post truss may be combined, by using the straining beam of the queen post truss as the tie beam for a king post truss above. [8] Such combinations are known as compound trusses.

  6. Post and lintel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_and_lintel

    The horizontal elements are called by a variety of names including lintel, header, architrave or beam, and the supporting vertical elements may be called posts, columns, or pillars. The use of wider elements at the top of the post, called capitals , to help spread the load, is common to many architectural traditions.

  7. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  8. King post - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_post

    The king post is the central, vertical member of the truss. Crown posts in the nave roof at Old Romney church, Kent, England. A king post (or king-post or kingpost) is a central vertical post used in architectural or bridge designs, working in tension to support a beam below from a truss apex above (whereas a crown post, though visually similar, supports items above from the beam below).

  9. Hewing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hewing

    After a tree is selected and felled, hewing can take place where the log landed or be skidded or twitched (skidded with a horse or oxen) out of the woods to a work site. . The log is placed across two other smaller logs near the ground or up on trestles about waist height; stabilized either by notching the support logs, or using a 'timber dog' (also called a log dog, [4] a long bar of iron ...
