  2. Hand scraper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_scraper

    Coarse scraping gives a resulting surface with 5-10 points per square inch while fine scraping yields 24-36 points per square inch. If desired the surface can then be “Frosted”. A surface prepared in this way is superior in overall accuracy to any prepared by machining or grinding operations, although lapping can equal or exceed it over ...

  3. Lapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lapping

    Lapping machine. Lapping is a machining process in which two surfaces are rubbed together with an abrasive between them, by hand movement or using a machine. Lapping often follows other subtractive processes with more aggressive material removal as a first step, such as milling and/or grinding. Lapping can take two forms.

  4. Flatness (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatness_(manufacturing)

    Up until his introduction of the scraping technique, the same three plate method was employed using polishing techniques, giving less accurate results. This led to an explosion of development of precision instruments using these flat surface generation techniques as a basis for further construction of precise shapes.

  5. Engineer's blue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineer's_blue

    Engineer's blue is prepared by mixing Prussian blue with a non-drying oily material (for example, grease).The coloured oil is rubbed onto a reference surface, and the workpiece is then rubbed against the coloured reference; the transfer (by contact) of the pigment indicates the position of high spots on the workpiece or conversely highlight low points.

  6. Surface plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_plate

    In this process, three approximately flat surfaces are progressively refined to precise flatness by manually rubbing them against each other in pairs with colouring matter in between, and then hand-scraping the high points. Any errors of flatness are removed by this scraping, since the only stable, mutually conjugate surface shape is a plane.

  7. List of construction methods - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Construction_methods

    The list of construction methods covers the processes and techniques used in the construction process. The construction method is essential for civil engineers; utilizing it appropriately can help to achieve the desired results. The term building refers to the creation of physical structures such as buildings, bridges or railways. One of the ...

    The woes of Greg Focker aren't over just yet. Ben Stiller, Robert De Niro, Teri Polo, and Blythe Danner are in early talks to return for a fourth Meet the Parents movie, nearly 15 years after they ...

  9. Earthworks (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earthworks_(engineering)

    Heavy construction equipment is usually used due to the amounts of material to be moved — up to millions of cubic metres. Earthwork construction was revolutionized by the development of the scraper and other earth-moving machines such as the loader, the dump truck, the grader, the bulldozer, the backhoe, and the dragline excavator.
