  2. Wilks coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilks_Coefficient

    The Wilks coefficient or Wilks formula is a mathematical coefficient that can be used to measure the relative strengths of powerlifters despite the different weight classes of the lifters. Robert Wilks, CEO of Powerlifting Australia , is the author of the formula.

  3. Precast concrete lifting anchor system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precast_concrete_lifting...

    There are adequate load case coefficients available to estimate sling angle load amplification, suction from the casting bed, and various dynamic transportation load estimates. Load resistance factors of safety , FOS, set out in the Australian Code would typically denote a FOS of 5.0 for re-usable lifting equipment and an FOS of 2.5 for a ...

  4. Spreadsheet - Wikipedia

    Formulas in the B column multiply values from the A column using relative references, and the formula in B4 uses the SUM() function to find the sum of values in the B1:B3 range. A formula identifies the calculation needed to place the result in the cell it is contained within. A cell containing a formula, therefore, has two display components ...

  5. Lift coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_coefficient

    In fluid dynamics, the lift coefficient (C L) is a dimensionless quantity that relates the lift generated by a lifting body to the fluid density around the body, the fluid velocity and an associated reference area. A lifting body is a foil or a complete foil-bearing body such as a fixed-wing aircraft.

  6. Crane (machine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crane_(machine)

    The methods for determining the DLF vary in the different crane specifications. The following formulas are examples from one specification. [46] The working load (suspended load) is the total weight that a crane is designed to safely lift under normal operating conditions. It is [46] = (+) where

  7. Structural load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_load

    A structural load or structural action is a mechanical load (more generally a force) applied to structural elements. [1] [2] A load causes stress, deformation, displacement or acceleration in a structure. Structural analysis, a discipline in engineering, analyzes the effects of loads on structures and structural elements.

  8. Lifting beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_beam

    Rigging of an asymmetrical scaffolding piece: the lifting beam is blue, the load is attached to the beam using grey slings. The lifting beam (also known as traverse, spreader beam) is a steel beam that is attached to the hook of the crane in order to spread the slings from one end of an elongated load (like a wall panel) to another.

  9. Lift slab construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_slab_construction

    Axon and elevation diagram of lift slab construction. Lift slab construction (also called the Youtz-Slick Method) is a method of constructing concrete buildings by casting the floor or roof slab on top of the previous slab and then raising (jacking) the slab up with hydraulic jacks. This method of construction allows for a large portion of the ...
