  2. Nominal Pipe Size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominal_Pipe_Size

    Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) is a North American set of standard sizes for pipes used for high or low pressures and temperatures. [1] " Nominal" refers to pipe in non-specific terms and identifies the diameter of the hole with a non-dimensional number (for example – 2-inch nominal steel pipe" consists of many varieties of steel pipe with the only criterion being a 2.375-inch (60.3 mm) outside ...

  3. Threaded rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_rod

    Undercut studs have a shank equal to the pitch diameter of the screw thread. Undercut studs are designed to better distribute axial stresses. In a full-bodied stud the stresses are greater in the threads than in the shank. [5] Undercut studs (rolled thread) are also stronger because the metal is "rolled" up to the major diameter, not removed.

    Wall studs are framing components in timber or steel-framed walls, that run between the top and bottom plates.It is a fundamental element in frame building. The majority non-masonry buildings rely on wall studs, with wood being the most common and least-expensive material used for studs.

  5. Cold-formed steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold-formed_steel

    Cold-formed steel, especially in the form of thin gauge sheets, is commonly used in the construction industry for structural or non-structural items such as columns, beams, joists, studs, floor decking, built-up sections and other components. Such uses have become more and more popular in the US since their standardization in 1946.

  6. Stud welding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stud_welding

    Stud-welded anchors on a bridge girder. Drawn arc stud welding joins a stud and another piece of metal together by heating both parts with an arc. The stud is usually joined to a flat plate by using the stud as one of the electrodes. The polarity used in stud welding depends on the type of metal being used. Welding aluminium, for example, would ...

  7. Unified Thread Standard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Thread_Standard

    The outermost 1 ⁄ 8 and the innermost 1 ⁄ 4 of the height H of the V-shape are cut off from the profile. The major diameter D maj is the diameter of the screw measured from the outer edge of the threads. The minor diameter D min (also known as the root diameter) is the diameter of the screw measured from the inner edge of the threads. The ...
