Stirrup sample. Stirrups form the outer part of a rebar cage. The function of stirrups (often referred to as 'reinforcing steel links' and 'shear links') is threefold: to give the main reinforcement bars structure, to maintain a correct level of concrete cover, and to maintain an equal transferance of force throughout the supporting elements.

The movement of a body, or link, is studied using geometry so the link is considered to be rigid. [1] The connections between links are modeled as providing ideal movement, pure rotation or sliding for example, and are called joints. A linkage modeled as a network of rigid links and ideal joints is called a kinematic chain.
Hurricane ties are in place at the top of the wall as the roof trusses are being placed. A hurricane tie (also known as hurricane clip or strip) is used to help make a structure (specifically wooden structures) more resistant to high winds (such as in hurricanes), resisting uplift, racking, overturning, and sliding.

In an effort to assist industry professionals with the selection of appropriate project delivery systems, construction management researchers have prepared a Procurement Method and Contract Selection Model, which can be used for high level decision making for construction projects on a case-by-case basis.

1. Cilantro – Ina Garten. Few foods are as polarizing as the herb that some people love, and others swear to Bob, tastes like soap. The “Barefoot Contessa” herself supposedly falls into the ...
The family of Tennessee death row inmate Gary Wayne Sutton held a press conference asking Gov. Bill Lee to examine the case for a potential pardon.
Depending on the compiler and architecture, it also may be the case that calling conventions differ between the two languages. For these reasons, for C++ code to call a C function foo(), the C++ code must prototype foo() with extern "C". Likewise, for C code to call a C++ function bar(), the C++ code for bar() must be declared with extern "C".
