    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tube_(structure)

    By 1963, a new structural system of framed tubes had appeared in skyscraper design and construction. Fazlur Rahman Khan, a structural engineer from Bangladesh (then called East Pakistan) who worked at Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, defined the framed tube structure as "a three dimensional space structure composed of three, four, or possibly more frames, braced frames, or shear walls, joined at or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_drawing

    For hot drawing, cast-steel dies are used. For steel wire drawing, a tungsten carbide die is used. The dies are placed in a steel casing, which backs the die and allow for easy die changes. [2] Die angles usually range from 6–15°, and each die has at least 2 different angles: the entering angle and approach angle. [2]

  5. Hydroforming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroforming

    In tube hydroforming pressure is applied to the inside of a tube that is held by dies with the desired cross sections and forms. When the dies are closed, the tube ends are sealed by axial punches and the tube is filled with hydraulic fluid. The internal pressure can go up to a few thousand bars and it causes the tube to calibrate against the dies.
