  2. Material selection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_selection

    Assume that the length and tension are fixed, making them design variables. Lastly the cross sectional area A {\displaystyle A} is a free variable. The objective in this situation is to minimize the weight w {\displaystyle w} by choosing a material with the best combination of material variables ρ , σ {\displaystyle \rho ,\sigma } .

  3. Units of textile measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_textile_measurement

    l/m = 1693 × l m /Nec × m/kg, where l/m is the yarn length in metres, l m /Nec is the English cotton count and m/kg is the yarn weight in kilograms. The following length units are defined. Bundle: usually 10 lb (4.5 kg) Thread: a length of 54 in (1.4 m)—the circumference of a warp beam; Lea: 120 yd (110 m) Hank: a length of 7 leas or 840 yd ...

  4. Floor area ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floor_area_ratio

    While it directly limits building density, indirectly it also limits the number of people that a building can hold, without controlling a building's external shape. For example, if a lot must adhere to a 0.1 FAR, then the total area of all floors in all buildings on the lot must be no more than one-tenth the area of the parcel itself.

  5. Yarn weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarn_weight

    Changing yarn weight or needle size can have a significant impact on the finished project, so standardized systems have been spread about, as well as conversion systems for regional standards (especially needle sizes).

  6. Lease purchase contract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lease_purchase_contract

    A Lease-Purchase Contract, also known as a lease purchase agreement or rent-to-own agreement, allows consumers to obtain durable goods [1] or rent-to-own real estate [2] without entering into a standard credit contract. [1] It is a shortened name for a lease with option to purchase contract.

  7. Specific strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_strength

    For this measurement, the definition of weight is the force of gravity at the Earth's surface (standard gravity, 9.80665 m/s 2) applying to the entire length of the material, not diminishing with height. This usage is more common with certain specialty fiber or textile applications.

  8. Stand density index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand_Density_Index

    Stand density index (SDI; also known as Reineke's Stand Density Index [1] after its founder) is a measure of the stocking of a stand of trees based on the number of trees per unit area and diameter at breast height (DBH) of the tree of average basal area, also known as the quadratic mean diameter. It may also be defined as the degree of ...

  9. Artificial hair integrations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_hair_integrations

    Manufacturers of artificial hair use a standard scale to classify the hair by color. The lower the number on the package, generally, the darker the color. 1 usually denotes darkest black, and would become lighter with increasing number value, ending at the lightest blonde, then finally white.
