  2. X-bracing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-bracing

    The John Hancock Tower has visible X-bracing on its exterior. X-bracing is a structural engineering practice where the lateral load on a building is reduced by transferring the load into the exterior columns.

  3. Voided biaxial slab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voided_biaxial_slab

    The overall mass of concrete can be reduced by 35–50% depending on the design, [1] as a consequence of reduced slab mass, as well as lower requirements for vertical structure and foundations. Biaxial slabs commonly span up to 20 metres at a thickness of around 500 mm. [ citation needed ] The added strength also reduces the acoustic ...

  4. Neutral axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutral_axis

    Therefore the first moment of the cross section about its neutral axis must be zero. Therefore the neutral axis lies on the centroid of the cross section. Note that the neutral axis does not change in length when under bending. It may seem counterintuitive at first, but this is because there are no bending stresses in the neutral axis.

  5. Axial chirality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_chirality

    Two types of molecules having axial chirality: allenes (left) and binaryl atropisomers (right) In chemistry, axial chirality is a special case of chirality in which a molecule contains two pairs of chemical groups in a non-planar arrangement about an axis of chirality so that the molecule is not superposable on its mirror image.

  6. PDF - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PDF

    Technically speaking, tagged PDF is a stylized use of the format that builds on the logical structure framework introduced in PDF 1.3. Tagged PDF defines a set of standard structure types and attributes that allow page content (text, graphics, and images) to be extracted and reused for other purposes.

  8. Pseudovector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudovector

    He says: "The terms axial vector and pseudovector are often treated as synonymous, but it is quite useful to be able to distinguish a bivector from its dual." To paraphrase Baylis: Given two polar vectors (that is, true vectors) a and b in three dimensions, the cross product composed from a and b is the vector normal to their plane given by c ...
