  2. Engineering tolerance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_tolerance

    For example, if a shaft with a nominal diameter of 10 mm is to have a sliding fit within a hole, the shaft might be specified with a tolerance range from 9.964 to 10 mm (i.e., a zero fundamental deviation, but a lower deviation of 0.036 mm) and the hole might be specified with a tolerance range from 10.04 mm to 10.076 mm (0.04 mm fundamental ...

  3. Limits and fits - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limits_and_fits

    Limits and Fits are standardized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) [2] and the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). [3] Tables are used to quickly calculate required tolerances for bolt holes, shafts, mating parts, and many similar scenarios.

  4. Engineering fit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_fit

    Engineering fits are generally used as part of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing when a part or assembly is designed. In engineering terms, the "fit" is the clearance between two mating parts, and the size of this clearance determines whether the parts can, at one end of the spectrum, move or rotate independently from each other or, at the other end, are temporarily or permanently joined.

  5. 30-degree rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/30-degree_rule

    However, camera movement should stay on one side of the subject to follow the 180-degree rule. A similar principle applies to changing the focal length of the lens; a change of less than 20 mm while keeping the same angle of view has a similar perception, and the 30 degree rule is often called the "20 mm/30 degree rule" for this reason.

  6. Minimum railway curve radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_railway_curve_radius

    90-foot (27.43 m) radii on the elevated 4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in (1,435 mm) standard gauge Chicago 'L'. There is no room for longer radii at this cross junction in the northwest corner of the Loop . The minimum railway curve radius is the shortest allowable design radius for the centerline of railway tracks under a particular set of conditions.

  7. Loading gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_gauge

    The main platform is defined to have a height of 1,100 mm (43.3 in) at a distance of 1,920 mm (75.6 in) from the center of the track to allow for trains with profile T. Low platforms at a height of 200 mm (7.9 in) may be placed at 1,745 mm (68.7 in) from the center of the track.

  8. Limit of positive stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_of_Positive_Stability

    In sailing, the limit of positive stability (LPS) or angle of vanishing stability (AVS) is the angle from the vertical at which a boat will no longer stay upright but will capsize, becoming inverted, or turtled.

  9. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    d = run Δh = rise l = slope length α = angle of inclination. The grade (US) or gradient (UK) (also called stepth, slope, incline, mainfall, pitch or rise) of a physical feature, landform or constructed line is either the elevation angle of that surface to the horizontal or its tangent.
