  2. Probe tip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probe_Tip

    Probe tips have been used as a tapping mode technique to provide information about the elastic properties of materials. [95] Probe tips are also used in the mass spectrometer. Enzymatically active probe tips have been used for the enzymatic degradation of analytes. They have also been used as devices to introduce samples into the mass ...

  3. Rigid-frame bridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid-frame_bridge

    Single span rigid-frame bridges are typically made of reinforced concrete and are commonly used on parkways and other roadways. [4] This design is an efficient use of material as the cross section at mid-span is relatively narrow and the amount of concrete needed at the abutments is reduced. [4]

  4. A-frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A-frame

    An A-frame is a basic structure designed to bear a load in a lightweight economical manner. The simplest form of an A-frame is two similarly sized beams , arranged in an angle of 45 degrees or less, attached at the top, like an uppercase letter 'A'.

  5. Chamfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamfer

    A chamfer with a "lark's tongue" finish. A chamfer (/ ˈ ʃ æ m f ər / SHAM-fər or / ˈ tʃ æ m f ər / CHAM-fər) is a transitional edge between two faces of an object.Sometimes defined as a form of bevel, it is often created at a 45° angle between two adjoining right-angled faces.

  6. Concrete frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concrete_frame

    A concrete frame, also known as a concrete skeleton, is a structure composed of interconnected beams, columns, and slabs that is used to support larger structures. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Due to the low cost of producing them, concrete frames are often used when building damns, bridges, and buildings.

  7. Sessile drop technique - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sessile_drop_technique

    In the top picture, the volume of the drop is being increased, and in the bottom it is being decreased. Each notated angle is an instance of a similar contact angle. The simplest way of measuring the contact angle of a sessile drop is with a contact angle goniometer, which allows the user to measure the contact angle visually. A droplet is ...

  8. Cone penetration test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone_penetration_test

    A CPT truck operated by the USGS. Symbol used in drawings Simplified version of a cone penetrometer.. The cone penetration or cone penetrometer test (CPT) is a method used to determine the geotechnical engineering properties of soils and delineating soil stratigraphy.

  9. Try square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Try_square

    On some squares the top of the stock is angled at 45°, so the square can be used as a mitre square for marking and checking 45° angles. A similar type of square is the engineer's square, used in metalworking and by some woodworkers. The blade is made with both a steel blade and a steel stock and is usually manufactured to a higher degree of ...
