  2. Stain-blocking primer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stain-blocking_primer

    The Air Change Index (ACI) of a solvent is an indication of the margin of safety of a solvent. The lower the ACI, the less air turnover needed. [2] [3] The ACI is calculated based on the amount of solvent in the primer, the volume of the room to be primed, the volatility of the solvent and the amount of primer to be applied.

    ACI 318 Building Code Requirements for Structural Concrete provides minimum requirements necessary to provide public health and safety for the design and construction of structural concrete buildings. [6] It is issued and maintained by the American Concrete Institute. [7] The latest edition of the code is ACI 318-19.

  5. Concrete cone failure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_cone_failure

    Under tension loading, the concrete capacity of a single anchor is calculated assuming an inclination between the failure surface and surface of the concrete member of about 35°. The concrete cone failure load N 0 {\displaystyle N_{0}} of a single anchor in uncracked concrete unaffected by edge influences or overlapping cones of neighboring ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic_retrofit

    Shown here is an exterior shear reinforcement of a conventional reinforced concrete dormitory building. In this case, there was sufficient vertical strength in the building columns and sufficient shear strength in the lower stories that only limited shear reinforcement was required to make it earthquake resistant for this location near the ...

  7. Anchor bolt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anchor_bolt

    The last are used in concrete-steel composite structures as shear connectors. [6] Other uses include anchoring machines to poured concrete floors [ 7 ] and buildings to their concrete foundations. Various typically disposable aids, mainly of plastic, are produced to secure and align cast-in-place anchors prior to concrete placement.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_coatings

    Architectural coatings [1] [2] or paints [3] are paints and other coatings used to paint the exteriors and interiors of buildings, often called or external masonry coatings. Clear varnishes and lacquers are generally excluded. [1]

  9. 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.
