  2. R-value (soils) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(soils)

    The R-value of a material is determined when the material is in a state of saturation such that water will be exuded from the compacted test specimen when a 16.8 kN load (2.07 MPa) is applied. Since it is not always possible to prepare a test specimen that will exude water at the specified load, it is necessary to test a series of specimens ...

  3. Straw-bale construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw-bale_construction

    Compressed straw bales have a wide range of documented R-value. R-value is a measurement of a materials insulating quality, higher the number the more insulating. The reported R-value ranges from 17–55 (in American units) or 3–9.6 (in SI) depending on the study, differing wall designs could be responsible for wide range in R-value.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_insulation_materials

    Typical R-values are given for various materials and structures as approximations based on the average of available figures and are sorted by lowest value. R-value at 1 m gives R-values normalised to a 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) thickness and sorts by median value of the range.

  5. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    The R-value is the building industry term [3] for thermal resistance "per unit area." [4] It is sometimes denoted RSI-value if the SI units are used. [5] An R-value can be given for a material (e.g., for polyethylene foam), or for an assembly of materials (e.g., a wall or a window). In the case of materials, it is often expressed in terms of R ...

  6. R-value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value

    R-value (insulation) in building engineering, the efficiency of insulation of a house; R-value (soils) in geotechnical engineering, the stability of soils and aggregates for pavement construction; R-factor (crystallography), a measure of the agreement between the crystallographic model and the diffraction data; R 0 or R number, the basic ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pizza_theorem

    Let p be an interior point of the disk, and let n be a multiple of 4 that is greater than or equal to 8. Form n sectors of the disk with equal angles by choosing an arbitrary line through p , rotating the line ⁠ n / 2 ⁠ − 1 times by an angle of ⁠ 2 π / n ⁠ radians , and slicing the disk on each of the resulting ⁠ n / 2 ⁠ lines.

    However, Domino’s, the world’s largest pizza chain with over 6,692 locations in the U.S., runs one of the country's most efficient pizza dough supply chains, with 18 supply centers producing ...

  9. Proofing (baking technique) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proofing_(baking_technique)

    Often the "poke method" is used to determine if a dough has risen long enough. If the dough, when poked, springs back immediately it is underproofed and needs more time. Some breads are considered fully proofed if the indent left by the poke springs back slowly, while others are considered fully proofed when the indent remains and does not ...
