2. Ferrocement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrocement

   Ferrocement or ferro-cement[1] is a system of construction using reinforced mortar [2] or plaster (lime or cement, sand, and water) applied over an "armature" of metal mesh, woven, expanded metal, or metal-fibers, and closely spaced thin steel rods such as rebar. The metal commonly used is iron or some type of steel, and the mesh is made with ...

3. Expanded metal - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expanded_metal

   Expanded metal. Sheet of expanded metal. Expanded metal is a type of sheet metal which has been cut and stretched to form a regular pattern (often diamond-shaped) of mesh -like material. It is commonly used for fences and grates, and as metallic lath to support plaster or stucco.

4. Aluminium joining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_joining

   Aluminium alloys are often used due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, low cost, high thermal and electrical conductivity.There are a variety of techniques to join aluminium including mechanical fasteners, welding, adhesive bonding, brazing, soldering and friction stir welding (FSW), etc. Various techniques are used based on the cost and strength required for the joint.

5. Soil nailing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_nailing

   Soil nailing is a remedial construction measure to treat unstable natural soil slopes or unstable man-made (fill) slopes as a construction technique that allows the safe over-steepening of new or existing soil slopes. The technique involves the insertion of relatively slender reinforcing elements into the slope – often general purpose ...

6. Welded wire mesh - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welded_wire_mesh

   It is also used in mines, gardening, machine protection and other decorations. Weld mesh is the term given to the kind of barrier fencing that is manufactured in square, rectangular or rhombus mesh from steel wire, welded at each intersection. Welded wire fabric (WWF) is also sometimes used in reinforced concrete, notably for slabs.

7. Electromagnetic shielding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_shielding

   In electrical engineering, electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing or redirecting the electromagnetic field (EMF) in a space with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. It is typically applied to enclosures, for isolating electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment ...
