    Their design depends upon the nature of the embankment and does not depend upon the type or parts of the bridge. [ 1 ] The soil and fill supporting the roadway and approach embankment are retained by the wing walls, which can be at a right angle to the abutment or splayed at different angles.

  3. Wing configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_configuration

    The Spitfire wing may be classified as: "a conventional low-wing cantilever monoplane with unswept elliptical wings of moderate aspect ratio and slight dihedral".. The wing configuration or planform of a fixed-wing aircraft (including both gliders and powered aeroplanes) is its arrangement of lifting and related surfaces.

  5. Cantilever - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilever

    An early example of a MEMS cantilever is the Resonistor, [7] [8] an electromechanical monolithic resonator. MEMS cantilevers are commonly fabricated from silicon (Si), silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4), or polymers. The fabrication process typically involves undercutting the cantilever structure to release it, often with an anisotropic wet or dry ...

  6. Cantilever method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantilever_method

    The cantilever method is an approximate method for calculating shear forces and moments developed in beams and columns of a frame or structure due to lateral loads. The applied lateral loads typically include wind loads and earthquake loads, which must be taken into consideration while designing buildings.

    These forces are often offset by carrying fuel in the wings or employing wing-tip-mounted fuel tanks; the Cessna 310 is an example of this design feature. Downward bending loads while stationary on the ground due to the weight of the structure, fuel carried in the wings, and wing-mounted engines if used. Drag loads dependent on airspeed and ...

  8. Fairchild 91 Baby Clipper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_91_Baby_Clipper

    The result was a conventional high-wing cantilever monoplane with its radial engine mounted above the wing in a streamlined nacelle. Before construction of the prototype was complete, however, Pan American no longer required the aircraft to operate in China, and Fairchild optimised the design for the Brazilian tropics.

  9. Junkers W 33 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junkers_W_33

    Like all Junkers designs from the J 7 fighter onwards, [3] it used a duraluminum aluminium alloy structure covered with Junkers' characteristic corrugated dural skin. While the Junkers W 33 was unusual when compared to the contemporary biplanes in use in the UK and the US, cantilever monoplanes were a popular design choice in continental Europe during the period, and the Junkers designs were ...
