  2. A36 steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A36_steel

    A36 steel has a Poisson's ratio of 0.26 and a shear modulus of 11,500 ksi (79.3 GPa). [7] A36 steel in plates, bars, and shapes with a thickness of less than 8 inches (203 millimeters) has a minimum yield strength of 36 ksi (250 MPa) and ultimate tensile strength of 58–80 ksi (400–550 MPa).

  3. Hollow structural section - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollow_structural_section

    In the recent past, HSS was commonly available in mild steel, such as A500 grade B. Today, HSS is commonly available in mild steel, A500 grade C. Other steel grades available for HSS are A847 (weathering steel), A1065 (large sections up to 50 inch sq made with SAW process), and recently approved A1085 (higher strength, tighter tolerances than ...

  4. Shelf angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelf_angle

    The only way to support the weight of this veneer across a wide opening is by providing a shelf angle on which the masonry bears. [1] The shelf angle, in turn, is attached to major elements of the building structure such as floor beams or structural columns. Shelf angles are in reality a horizontal expansion joint which allows growth of the ...

  5. Surface plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_plate

    The importance of the high-precision surface plate was first recognised by Henry Maudslay around 1800. He originated the systems of scraping a cast-iron plate to flatness, rubbing marking blue between pairs of plates to highlight imperfections, and of working plates in sets of three to guarantee flatness by avoiding matching concave and convex ...

  6. Deflection (engineering) - Wikipedia

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

    The deflection must be considered for the purpose of the structure. When designing a steel frame to hold a glazed panel, one allows only minimal deflection to prevent fracture of the glass. The deflected shape of a beam can be represented by the moment diagram, integrated (twice, rotated and translated to enforce support conditions).

  7. Angle plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_plate

    An angle plate is a work holding device used as a fixture in metalworking. Angle plates are used to hold workpieces square to the table during marking out operations. Adjustable angle plates are also available for workpieces that need to be inclined, usually towards a milling cutter .

  8. Structural steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_steel

    For steel structures the main harmonized standards are: Steel sections and plate – EN 10025-1; Hollow sections – EN 10219-1 and EN 10210-1; Pre-loadable bolts – EN 14399-1; Non-preloadable bolts – EN 15048-1; Fabricated steel – EN 1090 −1; The standard that covers CE Marking of structural steelwork is EN 1090-1. The standard has ...
