    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MC4_connector

    The MC4 system consists of a plug and socket design. The metal contacts of the plugs and sockets are inside plastic insulators; the plug's metal contact is inside a cylindrical insulator that looks like a socket, and the socket metal contact is inside a square probe that appears as a plug.

  4. Framing (construction) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framing_(construction)

    Wall framing in house construction includes the vertical and horizontal members of exterior walls and interior partitions, both of bearing walls and non-bearing walls. . These stick members, referred to as studs, wall plates and lintels (sometimes called headers), serve as a nailing base for all covering material and support the upper floor platforms, which provide the lateral strength along a

  5. Girt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girt

    Sheet metal wall panels are usually considered providing lateral bracing to the connected, typically exterior flange along the length of the girt. Under restricted circumstances, [ 1 ] sheet metal wall panels are also capable of providing rotational restraint to the girt section.

  6. Sheet metal forming analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal_forming_analysis

    For sheet metal forming analysis within the metal forming process, a successful technique requires a non-contact optical 3D deformation measuring system. The system analyzes, calculates and documents deformations of sheet metal parts, for example. It provides the 3D coordinates of the component's surface as well as the distribution of major and ...

  7. Truss connector plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truss_connector_plate

    Metal connector plates. A truss connector plate, or gang plate, is a kind of tie. Truss plates are light gauge metal plates used to connect prefabricated light frame wood trusses. They are produced by punching light gauge galvanized steel to create teeth on one side. The teeth are embedded in and hold the wooden frame components to the plate ...

    When thickness less than or equal to 3/16" (4.76mm): The various possible welds in cold formed steel sections, where the thickness of the thinnest element in the connection is 3/16" or less are as follows Groove Welds in Butt joints; Arc Spot Welds; Arc Seam Welds; Fillet Welds; Flare Groove Welds; 2.When thickness greater than or equal to 3/16 ...

  9. Gusset plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gusset_plate

    A gusset plate can form the entire connection or it can be used in conjunction with bolts or welds. [2] There are several prominent connection types that include gusset plates, which include KT gusset plates, uniform force bracing connections, and bolt groups. A KT gusset plate connects several members together through one gusset plate. The ...
