    The website expanded into nine more U.S. cities in 2000, four in 2001 and 2002, and 14 in 2003. On August 1, 2004, Craigslist began charging $25 to post job openings on the New York and Los Angeles pages. On the same day, a new section called "Gigs" was added, where low-cost and unpaid jobs can be posted for free.

  3. Tire recycling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_recycling

    As of 2015, only 67 million tires remain in stockpiles. [2] From 1994 to 2010, the European Union increased the amount of tires recycled from 25% of annual discards to nearly 95%, with roughly half of the end-of-life tires used for energy, mostly in cement manufacturing.

  4. Construction plant fitting in the Republic of Ireland - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_plant_fitting...

    The trade of construction plant fitting in the Republic of Ireland is essentially the training of mechanics who specialise in working on the type of machinery found on building sites. Bull-dozers, dump trucks, four-wheel drive vehicles, cement mixers and water pumps are all types of equipment worked on by construction plant fitters (cp fitters).

  5. Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodyear_Tire_and_Rubber...

    Estimates to fit factories with new machinery and tools for making the new product were between $600 million and $900 million. This was a substantial amount in a low margin business with sales revenue in the low billions. [19] The US market was slowly shifting towards the radial tire, as had already been the case in Europe and Asia.

  6. Railway tire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_tire

    The most usual cause of damage is drag braking on severe gradients.Because the brake blocks apply directly on the tire, it is heated up, relaxing the interference fit. It is not feasible to fit the tire with such a heavy interference as to eliminate this risk entirely, and the retaining ring will ensure that the tire can only rotate on the wheel center, maintaining its alignment.

  7. Tire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire

    Tyre is the oldest spelling, [5] and both tyre and tire were used during the 15th and 16th centuries. During the 17th and 18th centuries, tire became more common in print. The spelling tyre did not reappear until the 1840s when the English began shrink-fitting railway car wheels with malleable iron.

  8. Wheel alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheel_alignment

    The primary angles are the basic angle alignment of the wheels relative to each other and to the car body. These adjustments are the camber, caster and toe. [2] On some cars, not all of these can be adjusted on every wheel.

  9. Shrink-fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrink-fitting

    Shrink-fitting is a technique in which an interference fit is achieved by a relative size change after assembly. This is usually achieved by heating or cooling one component before assembly and allowing it to return to the ambient temperature after assembly, employing the phenomenon of thermal expansion to make a joint.
